And there it is. The FIRST FUCKING COMMENT (or at least the top one for me) once again decries even the notion that a political bent is driving viewers from ESPN. This article didn’t mention one word about politics but you can’t pass on the opportunity to say “pay no attention to the man behind the curtain.”

Why are…

Leach: “Hey Raccoon, where do you live?”

It’s more than a little disingenuous for the video editor of Deadspin to pretend that the video was made without a point of view or an understanding of the potential power of viral video, don’t you think? I say that while in agreement with that point of view and appreciative of the power of the video. Come on man, you…

I’m a fan of Williamson, and I always have been. I say that while noting he’s a provocateur, and an asshole. Whether you’re a fan or foe. He is an asshole. But he can write, and write quite well. Even Ta-Nehesi Coates, whose writing makes the staff at Gizmodo media rock hard, thinks as much.

It’s odd. When I go to conservative sites, I almost always develop a real animosity towards them. When I go to liberal sites, such as this one, I almost always develop a real animosity towards them.

Don’t worry, man, you’re doing it right...fuck these people who can’t understand why you’d want your children to watch some of the same things you loved so much growing up. If Star Wars wasn’t something that a whole lot of people legitimately enjoy on it’s own merits, they wouldn’t keep pumping out new content all the…

Star Wars: The Clone Wars and Star Wars Rebels. Both are high-quality entertainment that kids like, but I’m lukewarm on the cartoons overall. They have their moments, but they’re just not special the way the movies are.

This is a critical issue for me in raising my daughters. I have to tread lightly because if I push anything too hard they will very easily pick up on, and run with, my wife’s disdain for the whole genre.

This is just a bad take. Alan Rickman in Galaxy Quest was a phenomenon.

You just said that a straw has zero holes, then defined it based with one of the restrictions being that is has a hole.

Performative bullshit is what it is. However, this progressive crusade against “bipartisanship” or general cooperation is juvenile and self-defeating.

Save the militancy for ROOT. Y’all Rooties can call all the dog whistles racist and practice all the reverse racism you want, but this is a more “mainstream” publication, so that angle doesnt necessarily fly here. Also we are not responsible for our racist uncle’s actions, or even that of our fellow “wypipo” just as…

MUTEMATH!!!!

“Addict with a Pen” may be the most Christian song I’ve ever heard. 

Yielding?

U2? YOU GOT OFF LIGHT! Have an un-ironic love for Phil Collins and see how people treat you!

There you have it! THESIS CONFIRMED BY UNPROVABLE ANECDOTE ON COMMENT BOARD FULL OF NEGATIVE RESPONSES.

I refer to the excellent Young Adult novel, “The Giver”. The precision of Language is a form of control, it limits people’s ability to speak, think, and make connections.

Exactly.

Um. Yes there is. https://www.webmd.com/mental-health/features/sociopath-psychopath-difference#1.  “Crosses corrected someone who made false claim off to-do list”.
