Queen Serena, yes. I love how the NYT points out, after all Sharapova’s scary descriptorss, that Sharapova is actually five inches taller than Serena. Also, Serena was surprisingly smaller than expected when I met her in person. She’s muscular, but not as broad or thick as I thought she’d be from the televison. Other…

That letter is fantastic, my favorite sentence was “I see your gaslight and now raise you a scorched earth.” Bring. It. Amber.

Pretty fun to read Sharapova going on about how big and strong Serena is in person considering Sharapova has 5 inches on Serena.

“What you are experiencing is called a teachable moment. It is called a gift. It is called a humbling. It is called Jesus, I come to thee. It is called an awakening. It is called a growth edge. It is called hope.

So not only does Tamblyn’s description of the encounter ring true, she follows/juxtaposes it with this;

I love Serena Williams so much. I love that she is just doing her thing totally unbothered while Shriekadopa tries to steal the headlines with something that happened over a decade ago. I hope Serena keeps putting out baby pics and training videos whenever Maria opens her yap.

Whatever, they’re both in eastern Europe...

On Saturday morning my neighbor partied on her deck with at least three other people from 2:30 am to about 6:00 am. Shouting nonstop. She’s a grandmother in her 40s. I don’t see how that it possible without drugs. I’m 34 and I can’t stay up past 2 am to save my life.

They were all doing coke right?

Like the Michigan man who was so afraid for his life because someone was banging on his door at 4:30 am, that he opened the door and shot a 19 year old female accident victim in the face.

I’m guessing it will more like a Treyvon Martin thing — “oh, I was so afraid of the nasty homeless guy that I followed him as he was walking away and shot him twice! So afraid!”

“Homeless guy walks up to my car, yells at me and says insulting things.”

I liked Very Smart Brothas/The Root’s headline/version of this story better: http://verysmartbrothas.theroot.com/thug-charged-with-shooting-and-critically-injuring-home-1805004621
