Indeed. Sloths have barely any muscle mass and so exertion isn’t really their thing. (S)he was trying to climb up a short metal pole to shelter so I guess they weren’t around when the brains were being given out either.

I am sorry, but fuck sloths. They have little to no survival instincts, they are useless to humans and they’re absolutely hideous. This goes for koalas and pandas, too. They, along with sloths, should be round up and gassed. Every one of them.

I know literally no one that gives half a damn what the players say to reporters after the game. It's always some variation on thanking God, then saying it was a team effort, then saying they were all just focused and ready to execute. The end, no one gives a shit.

He doesn't owe you anything, or care what you think. God that must piss you off.

All these "talking to the media is part of the deal, it's why he gets paid" pundits baffle me. As far as I'm concerned his job is playing football, preferably in a visually entertaining fashion. I could not possibly give less of a flying fuck at a rolling doughnut whether or not he talks to the press. I suspect the…

These questions are actually more thoughtful & interesting than the repetitive drivel that the sports reporters lazily lob at Marshawn. Have the whiny little shits considered putting two seconds of effort into doing THEIR job?

Marshawn Lynch gets paid to play football. The fans of the Seattle Seahawks organization are just fine with him entertaining them on the field.

god, shut the fuck up

It's almost as if people who grow up in impoverished minority-heavy areas keep some verbal vestiges of that upbringing even if they're intelligent people.

This is awesome. There isn't a more useless group of professionals than sports journalists. All the power to him for pointing out, maybe inadvertently, the absurdly stupid corporate theater that is modern sports.

My take-away from this article is that Mike Madson, Rob Demovsky, and Bart Hubbuch must be insufferable douches.

If you're to invoke Grace Jones as if she's some sort of old school rendition of "I have a black friend" you also need to recognize the areas of toxicity that were inherent within their relationship which led to him leaving her when she gave birth, of which he claims bore Jungle Fever out of "his emotional turmoil."

I'm curious as to what end you mention Goude's relationship with Grace Jones. It hardly absolves him of nor precludes him problematic or racist intentions in his work.

But see, Kim isn't black, and that's what I don't like about this piece. On the one hand, the author pays lip service to Kim/Selter's white privilege, yet at the same time suggests that Baartman's tragedy somehow applies to Kim or may serve as a cautionary tale, when that's the furthest thing from the truth given…

I can't help but resent that this woman's decision to end her own life is treated as newsworthy just because she was physically attractive. There are plenty of people who choose to die every day

It absolutely does. When you click "request uber" it says "hey surge pricing is in effect, it's __ much. Do you accept surge pricing?" and you have to click yes to request it.

But drunk people don't read it so this happens...

Does Uber not tell you the price of the ride before you book it?

D: I am concerned about the well-being of this cat. I mean, I love Grumpy Cat, I think she's the cutest little button ever, but...this really does feel like a lot, and all of this touring and movie making and moving around a lot and stressful situations CAN'T be good for that kitty.

As someone who grew up on Disney in the 70's, I give you the best talking cat ever, "The Cat From Outer Space"
