This made it sound a lot more mysterious than it is. There’s not even anything subtle about it.

“Singing”

The illustrations are amazing.

I prefer for the non-fictionalized version: Dogtown and Z-Boys (or Bones Brigade for Hawk’s era). They’re all ultimately Stacey Peralta’s POV.

She preemptively declined that scenario. 

I admire Stacy Abrams and would consider voting for her for any number of offices if I were in her state or she was on a national ballot. I very begrudgingly accepted her non-run for the Senate (which may look even worse next year if we’re looking at yet another Court seat or two being flipped by McConnell) but I do…

This is just awful. LeBron needs to speak up and say f*ck this gimmick. Besides being silly on its face and way too confusing, it compromises all future stats for people who care about such things. Either it’s a regulation NBA game or it isn’t. Now it isn’t since it doesn’t last for 48 minutes. They might as well put…

All of these words and I have no idea why people used these in the first place. You even write how J&J settled claims related to deceptively marketing them without saying what was deceptive that might give me a clue. The first related article I clicked on to find out has this information in the second sentence.

It feels worse than it actually is due to the timing but, by the logic that makes this offensive because people have died from it, joking about someone doing anything like they have the flu should be even more offensive since 80k people died in the US alone of flu-related complications last year—which means that far mo…

Leave him alone. He’s just asking questions.

It’s frustrating how much writing and reporting these days is just re-sharing what famous people post or tweet. Why do we even need to know what he thinks? Fame whores like him only exist to the extent that anyone pays attention to them. Just ignore them. PLEASE.

If anyone is really into this concept, these are lovely:

I want to just reply with this list to all of the people reposting claims about Kobe’s Catholicism today.

And it’s not like she mysteriously just decided not to testify. It was quite clear what Kobe and his defense team (and the largely complicit media) did that could explain why she decided not to.

Napolitano isn’t a true anything and certainly not a Conservative. Ostensibly, he’s a Libertarian. An ahistorical, conspiratorial one. He’s just smart enough to pick up on where the wind is blowing quicker than some. He really only turned on the Trump Administration, to the extent that he has, once he wasn’t short…

As usual, wonderful writing. You also happened to capture the exact way I feel about every aspect you touched on.

A couple of of my favorite bits:
