I love basketball. I love it as much as you do. I loved it when the NBA stuck to marquee games in NYC the weekend immediately before the one time we hosted the Super Bowl. Even though I’m rarely home without doing something with my daughter these days, I watch insane amount of hoops, and will find excuses to check the…

I fully concur. If wage equality was for people we like, none of us would get it. I get that she burned a lot of bridges in Hollywood, but so what? If a White guy can demand more money, why can’t a Black woman? She’s not mandating that someone give it to her, but not working until she gets what she wants. Though if…

The idea that sex should be the product of labor is disturbing. On one hand, it assumes that a woman is entitled to a man’s emotional labor. On the other, it assumes that sex should be primarily a reward for emotional labor, which comes off rape adjacent. Nah fam. Just no.

The Aziz Ansari article is a case where the way the argument was presented pretty much meant that people were going to misread it. It was written sloppy as hell, and anyone who spent more than a few minutes reading over it sober could tell that it would be easily misread.

Very true. Someone working on the level of a Larry Nassar knows who to target and who to shield off. This isn’t amateur hour. He’s a hardened criminal of the highest order, not some fool. Screw-ups don’t get 160 girls. It’s all the more reason to throw the book at this fool.

That was a random oversight, but I get it. He was there for some rough years when it was him, Antoine Walker and a prayer. Let the man get his shine on.

I’d say Ramen noodles, and not because of the authentic versions that have hit our shores. (And if you ever get a chance, hit up an authentic Japanese spot for some ramen.) Hang around the formerly incarcerated, and you will realize that Ramen noodles can be hooked up to the Gawds. I’ve had ramen made that actually…

I’m a bit wary, because occasionally I have to have my little daughter in tow, and some barbers don’t know how to keep it PG around the youth. Other than that, I’ll explore. I just hope I don’t end up with a parking lot confrontation like the last time I switched barbers. That was awkward.

I am of partial immigrant extraction, and, more importantly, I strongly resemble my immigrant grandfather. Combine that with working in a STEM field, and occasionally I get remarks about where I’m really from. The second I mention my dad’s family’s extraction, my very real American roots get thrown aside for the…

Also, good luck getting the kid situation right. I know someone gay who is moving into the whole fatherhood process, and it’s a whole hustle and a half getting all the paperwork right.

Chuck E Cheese is Bae. It’s the one kid friendly location where I don’t get hit with the Single Dad And Frisk. They let a dad be a dad by reading the news or a book while my daughter is safe playing with the other kids until she runs out of tokens. I love the place myself. No one bugs me or her. It’s good.

The messed up part is that my dad was raised Episcopalian, and he didn’t tell me anything. Darn...

Excellent point about White people and seasoning. I think God invented Italians so White people would understand the concept that seasoning is a Good Thing. Also, White people are weird about Luther Vandross. They understand that he’s popular, but he comes off a bit too maudlin from their perspective. <strike>Though…

Now for college basketball to begin. NEXT!

The SSOL Suns were propaganda at its finest. I’m surprised the author didn’t score a job in the Trump White House. But all of this is tapdancing around the fact that your hometown doesn’t have a basketball team and hasn’t had one since the Pittsburgh Pipers shut down operations close to 50 years ago. It’s OK, but it…

It’s a weird call, because RIGHT outside of the work bathroom are Purell dispensers that are heavily used. So you have to wait until someone is clear of the whole bathroom area to nail them on it.

How is #2 about toxic masculinity? The woman cheated on him! But the rest I agree with.

What the fuck is that bullshit? How many favors did her brother Mike call in to get this video shot? LOL

Connecticut hoods are an interesting beast. They aren’t as scary as what you in New York, but there’s so little opportunity and so isolated from the larger state that they produce the lest fuck having people on God’s Green Earth. They all aren’t out that, but when they do, they’ll shoot people over some basic ass New…
