I came up in Rochester and still have family there, but it’s been 20 years since I’ve lived there, so grain of salt.

Please keep doing it publicly. Maybe to you this piece is a vacuous fulfillment of some quota, but to me it’s the slice of humanity that I’ve missed in the past year that I can count on VSB and The Glow Up to partially replace. If you’re crazy then I’m crazy in the same way, which makes me feel less crazy. Plus, you…

How long before the Patriots sign him?

FACTS. There’s the TV/movie trope of Mean Old Mr. Wilson won’t give the ball back because the neighborhood kids cracked his window in a game of street stickball. Somehow this looks very, very different if I imagine the cops reporting to a property damage call and find a gang of 9-year-old Black men running around with…

Place your bets now folks:

(at 19:27) Mayor Bottoms stands at the podium.

Just a quick reminder that we probably don’t want to have presidents who weigh in on shit they don’t know shit about, like ongoing investigations. Lots of folk saying he was waffling, but he was clear on 2 things:

Cops sure seem to have a lot of bad days

The link is white supremacy and the consequences thereof. It’s certainly less of a stretch than imagining the firing of a magazine editor caused this

By all means, show everyone that time Kate Middleton complained members of The Institution were checking behind her kids ears to see if they were too dark. Maybe they subscribe to your theory that Black folk simply pop into existence without regard to parentage

Everything about this is perfect. Dramatic jacket removal, inbounding off the forehead, RIP YG’s ankles, presence of mind to stop after a single flawless attempt, and the cherry on top lapel pop as the curtain drops.

*Italian chef finger kiss thing*

Woof, the stupid is strong with this one.

Right? I can (kind of) forgive a random New Yorker not knowing who he is, but not having a working understanding of who is a threat when you KNOW IN ADVANCE WHO’S SUPPOSED TO BE THERE just makes you terrible at your job. I can’t think of a smaller threat to security than Ewing, spending time hassling him make MSG…

Ask any hoops head who’s the greatest New York Knick of all-time and you’ll get one of three answers:

Hell yeah! Damon better win this. Hollow Kingdom was awesome, but was a distant second place to WDKYMYB in my 2019 reading list. (And I don’t think I would have considered it “humor,” though there were some exceptionally funny parts.) The Dave Barry book was aight, he’s been doing the same schtick for like four…

3. He’s never released an album I’d consider a classic. (His best, If You’re Reading This It’s Too Late, falls short of that status.) But perhaps this is an anachronistic way of assessment

This is all deeply, deeply stupid.

We at the Rainbow Punch Coalition take a broad definition of “fists.” You and your anti-racist 2x4 are more than welcome, friend.

Yes, that’s what I’m saying. This kid’s parents probably weren’t alive when the CRA passed, clearly waiting for racists to die isn’t working, and I don’t want to read this dumb article again in 20 years.

Fake news! They did the best job ever, it’s just that most of the stuff they did just happened to start working on or about January 20
