That’s kinda my whole point. The democratic socialists don’t have an answer. They just stick their fingers in their ears and say I don’t have to deal with you. Ocasio-Cortez might win her seat but the Bernie bros lost us the presidential election and they are going to do it again. 

I don’t know when else I’m gonna be able to tell this story, so I’ll latch onto the super-tenuous connection here and brag about this now.

Completely unacceptable. Nobody wears that kind of hat backwards.

Yeah, I voted for Trump and I’m pretending. You idiots are the democratic socialists who think everyone in the country wants to burn down the system and spend all of our money on healthcare. There are a lot of people who vote democratic that don’t believe the democratic socialists message. You idiots are alienating…

And that’s another reason why the democratic party is fuck. You idiots are so focused on moral victories that you don’t even understand what is going on in the country. 

I don’t understand how this is catcalling...I really don’t.

Catcalling? You gotta be kidding. Debate is the central pillar of the political process. And she responds as if he’s whistling at her calling “Hey baby”? It’s an invitation to a POLITICAL DEBATE.

“Pinkerton is the high water mark of 90's rock n’ roll”

Busy day in the Splinter offices, huh?

Most Muslims would say she is not one due to the fact she refuses to wear a headscarf and/or burqa.  To me she is not Muslim but a standard Westernized woman.  And that’s a good thing. 

If the WNBA doesn’t make a profit, and is pretty much completely subsidized by the NBA, how could anyone argue anything other than WNBA players are overpaid? It’s not like playing basketball has some true value, like all professional athletes they are entertainers. They make their salary based on the amount of money…

because nobody watches the WNBA and there is no money to do such a thing.

Doesn’t “b.” practically beg for a deep dig into the way-back machine? This would probably only be worth it for a gossip column if one becomes an entertainer or oppo research if one becomes a politician. For a normal civilian, why call attention to it? There are people (Hello, I'm Jerry) who've never had a social…

Dear god it is like we’re not even individual people anymore. In the future we’ll all go around asking what each other’s “brand” is.

This story is so, so sad to me.

This pisses me off in a kind of unexpected way. The entire point of art is to evoke an emotional reaction. To take you on a journey. To immerse you. Who gives a fuck if the dog dies? It’s FICTION. It’s not a real dog and they don’t actually kill a dog to depict a dog dying. There’s a reason that being told about a…

Ditto. I’m from KC and while I’m sure this isn’t true for everyone I kind of just hold doors for people out of habit and give it basically no thought at all.

If more people had a basic understanding of how economics work (specifically in regards to sports) I wouldn’t need to spend my time explaining to my conservative bosses how no, NFL players aren’t overpaid for playing a game, or to commenters on this website how if someone is complaining about how little money they…

Maybe the league could step up its branding game and NOT send players onto the court in the uniform equivalent of a Penny Saver. Like, I get that sponsorships are important, but... to the point of eliminating the team name and city entirely? Hard to get folks to take the stakes of a game seriously when it looks like a…
