Im sorry people are jumping on you; you can feel sorry both for a victim and for the people he victimizes. You can think of the women he hurt because their hurt due to his trauma helps us understand the full scope of how terrible trauma and abuse is, since it doesn’t just hurt the person who experienced but so many…
I read the piece. One thing that stuck out to me in this piece was that it hits on what I think is a common theme in life and in entertainment: hurt men — men who have suffered in whatever awful ways, often abuse women on their road to healing. And, as in this piece, the suffering of those women is kind of written…
Finding out at the doctor’s office will get you like, ZERO “likes”
I try not to. It’s tough. I enjoy the PMT Podcast and that’s literally the end of it. Deadspin has probably been my most visited news/blog/whatever you want to call it for nearly a decade so I’ve watched the progression of this blog. At around the same time when I loved regularly reading “past Deadspin” I tried for…
I do understand why you second-guessed it but I support the public blast of cheaters (always when they are childless, on a case-by-case basis when kids are in the picture).

It’s all fine and well to be pro-life, but when you’re on your seventh child by the time you’re in your mid-20s, and cannot afford to adequately care for even…
It’s still a disservice.
Yeah, the only things closed on Sunday here are one Mexican chain and one grocery chain known for their conservative values. And Chick Fil A.
Yet Deadspin readers still flock to watch the NCAAs/NFL....
Want to REALLY be revulsed? Listen to his old stand-up comedy bit from (I think) the ‘60s, “Spanish Fly”. Ugh.
None of this is the case with stored in my area of the U.S. nor in any U.S. town I’ve visited.
When Christians stop hectoring everyone about their “truth,’ then they can lecture people about proper public behavior. I cannot take the damn subway without at least 5 Christians offering me pamphlets or offering to convert me. When they shut-up, then Emma should shut-up.
Rachel Bloom is my everything.
I came here to make the same book recommendation. It’s an interesting read but certainly not a feel-good story.
As someone who occasionally puts on an ASMR video off of Youtube to help me get to sleep, I hereby affirm and attest that I have absolutely zero legs to stand on when it comes to laughing at other people’s harmless, semi-bonkers actions that soothe them. Totally glass house, right here.
