I mean, did this part of the story not answer your question?

www.mcsweeneys.net : Carlos Greaves - As a 28-Year-Old Latino, I’m Shocked My New Novel, Memoirs of a Middle-Aged White Lady, Has Been So Poorly Received.

Love these and I often find myself watching old Craig Ferguson late show highlights on YouTube as well. His improv with Josh Thompson aka Geoff Peterson the skeleton is some of the finest television repartee ever. Those shows were magic.

Off topic but here goes:

I never even knew WTF a Joe Ligotti was until now.

Yes.

Is it his wife’s job to educate him though? I mean, yes, we should let our loved ones know when they’ve fucked up, but he’s a grown man with an education and internet access. He can learn if he wants to. Other people as well have been trying to help him understand both this choice and his homophobic comments are…

I heard Terry's conscience can be seen during the walking tour of Pompeii.

“is misleading at best and kinda weird at worst.”

“I can see the “More from VSB” links from the reply box, and they’re all about Terry Crews.”

In biographies of Malcolm X and Martin Luther King, they both remarked on appreciating conversations with people (usually referring to journalists) where they had a chance to talk about topics beyond “racial issues” on a recurring basis. HOWEVER, their mission did not change.

Is it me or is something missing from this? Is this Mayor Keisha Lance Bottoms’ recipe?

As I have said before: The Sunken Place is All Too Real

I don’t know If I’m BORED with talking about it. I know I’m TIRED of talking about it. I see those as different. I’m tired because the people who need the most help with it have been asking the same fucking questions or saying the same fucking things for decades. But if they ever want to actually learn something new…

A lot of people are pulling the “it was settled in a civil suit” to dismiss the allegations, but the charges were dropped because his accuser didn’t want to testify in court. Have people not learned by now that survivors often won’t testify because it is too traumatic and they are usually dragged through the mud by…

He’s regarded as one of the worst teammates in sports history. He had his share of talents but being a good and uplifting teammate was not one of them - several players including Carmelo Anthony didn’t play for the Lakers specifically because of Kobe’s attitude and elitism. The guy even called out some of his own teamm…

“His effect on every male and female sport was and can be felt.”
