It’s interesting (and sad?) that this kind of basic understanding of American history and an awareness of current events should surprise us, whether it comes from the sports world or a fucking Rotary Club meeting. But it always does. Anytime I hear a white man over the age of 40 speak in these terms, I feel like…

Things don’t have to be violent for them to be damaging. Many runners have to stop due to knee problems, or swimmers with shoulder problems. Think about a pitcher throwing a baseball. I would imagine a similar amount of torque is required of your back when swinging a golf club. When you put an abnormal amount of…

I think you missed the point. Nobody is saying that what they did was illegal. It’s just fucked up. The judges of our highest court shouldn’t be decided this way. Obama did his part by nominating a middle of the road judge. He didn’t have to do that. He could’ve picked some hemp-growing fifth circuit court of appeals…

Wonderful. This error in attribution will give Trump nation something to chew on for about 2 weeks.

Wait, a person whose success has been built largely on looks and a good voice doesn’t understand the nuances of oppression? Who woulda thunk...

These guys are pretty great:

And why do you think corporate espionage is a minor offense? He was hacking into documents that included medical records. Honestly, he got off light.

It’s amazing that many white people can’t wrap their heads around systemic racism and white supremacy because, hey, y’know...there’s a lot of poor white people out there.

No matter the circumstances, knowing that you had a part in someone else dying...fuck. That’ll be hard to get over. I hope he and his family are back to normal ASAP.

Does anyone else have issues with these video players? It’s always extremely pixelated for the first 8-10 seconds. No amount of waiting or letting it buffer will fix it. SAD!

It’s precisely because young progressives see the shining lights of massive coastal cities and leave their midwest states behind that we have issues like this in the first place. It’s too hard for them to think about making real, impactful change in their own communities, so they just move to Brooklyn and work in and…

I would argue that over the course of modern history, the amount of useful information garnered from a White House press conference could be comfortably scribbled in a small moleskin. Reporters need to stop wasting time at these propaganda gatherings and start filing FOIA requests and tapping their sources. That’s how…

What happens when Pence is with his mom and his wife at the same time?

You’re assuming way too much about Mr and Mrs Pence’s relationship.

HOT TAKE: The baseball HOF is stupid and meaningless.

I literally want the world to end. Seriously. Let’s just get it over with.

Wonderful. Now you’ve alerted all the creeps who do this to just put their cams on a different WiFi than the one provided to guests.

I’ll vouch for this. The only people who smell like BO are people who don’t wear deodorant AND don’t know how to properly bathe themselves. If you take a shower everyday and wash yourself correctly, you should be covered until the next time you shower.

I used to write for a newspaper in a tiny Indiana town. Christmas fell on a Wednesday one year. At a city council meeting, members were trying to figure out how to get the Monday before Christmas Eve off for an extra long weekend (they’re only allotted a certain amount of government holidays by the state). After…

I stopped at “Berman was a victim...”
