Hopefully it’ll be something quick, like:

My money (heh) is on the second. Because apparently women’s brains are too busy thinking of fashion and gossip to understand sports, dontcha know! Sportsball! Do the goal, get the points, touchdown on the net!!1! Or whatever.

For those prepared to take on the heavy burden of being Taylor Swift’s BFF, prepare for your wedding to sound like this: “BOOOO NOOOO TAYLORRR NOOOO.” Yesterday Taylor Swift served as a bridesmaid to her lifelong BFF Abigail Anderson, and TMZ camped out outside to get video of fans yelling at her as guards hid her…

From what I understand they wanted his blood so that they can test it and hopefully it will come back as dirty (drugs or alcohol etc.). Then if he wanted to bring a civil suit against the department for being injured due to thier high speed chase, which I think is against the departments policy, they can bring up his…

If they could find anything, they could claim the truck driver was at least partially at fault.

To cover their asses over a potential unwarranted high speed chase; blame the victim, not themselves.

right? just stop covering these assholes. it’s so easy. there’s PLENTY of other shit/people to talk about/make fun of.

No. There were Rey action figures in the first series of both the 6" and 3.75" The Force Awakens waves (with her face uncovered). She wasn’t short packed either.

The problem wasn’t that Hasbro wasn’t making Rey figures, it’s that stores couldn’t keep Rey on shelves. In my area, Rey was initially a peg warmer and Kylo…

We tried to forgive and unify with the post Civil War south. They drove the carpetbaggers out and instituted regressive, punitive Jim Crow laws because they didn’t get their way. We should have burned that whole region down, dissolved the states, and treated it like new territories.

You forgot about the genocide of the native people so that we could steal their land.

I don’t get it either. Jez loves this racist.

Reading about Paris Hilton does kinda make me want to barf, but this is Dirt Bag, right? Not Barf Bag? Mayhaps we have too many bags...

What do the Kardashian-Jenners talk about when they date the great songwriters and athletes of our generation?

I’m gonna second the Iain M. Banks Culture rec. I’ve also been enjoying Alastair Spence’s hard science space opera, and Charlie Stross has written some pretty decent cyberpunkish books. William Gibson is a perennial fave, and I love his writing style. This is what I’ve been reading recently. Some people enjoy Neal…

The Abhorsen Trilogy by Garth Nix. I’ve read a lot of fantasy, and it’s still my favorite.

Not a book, but I will always sell hard for Babylon 5. It is always relevant - an Earth government that whips up anti-alien sentiment and slowly begins to undermine civil rights. It is currently free to watch on Verizon’s go90 app. Saving that, The Hitchhiker’s guide to the Galaxy series is smart and very funny.

Jeff Vandermeer’s Southern Reach trilogy was riveting.

Terry Pratchett always and forever... Because he’s fucking Terry Pratchett is why. (plus, he was a brilliant satirist with great insight into people and a wonderful way with words)

I can’t post pics but my pupper who is wearing the cone of shame because she tore up her spay incision 2 weeks later sends her sad snugs.

I’ve been reading tons of sci-fi and fantasy lately and can’t seem to get enough of the genre. Any recommendations for good books or series? I’ve already read all of The Expanse, GoT, and whatever the Ender’s Game series is called. Currently reading Ancillary Justice by Ann Leckie; the first of hers I’ve gotten into.…
