Yeah. That’s going to happen. It happened with Prince, too, the attempt to erase his blackness. It’s disgusting.

Yet those of us who what her from abroad are constantly reminded that America hasn’t embraced her because she is too black. I guess we can just wait until she dies and everyone will claim their piece of her like is happening with Ali.

Serena is one of, if not the, greatest athlete the US has right now and one of the top ever.

That spoiled brat grew up in Compton, her sister was killed in a drive by and she has achieved more than you could ever imagine.

She is 34, she is already the oldest Grand Slam winner ever, it’s not a surprise she is starting to find it all a little harder.

Serena did have an adductor injury and apparently a calf injury as well. Her semifinal against Kiki Bertens was probably her worst match all tournament, and she really should’ve dropped the opening set (Bertens was also injured).

can we have salma hayek as the smoking, sultry confidence artist? maybe kerry washington as the straight-laced, tightly-wound accountant who’s got the details on the score and has some kind of terrible secret that’s driving her to crime to come up with the money?

The thing is, they didn’t even HAVE to listen to women. There were two men that saved her, chased him off, and acted as eyewitnesses to his crime, but his welfare is still prioritized before hers. And arguably, before the welfare of his next potential victim.

You can police every aspect of your speech, you can wear the right things, you can get all the degrees and expertise, you can write the most fucking eloquent and heartbreaking courtroom statement and still there are men who will not hear you because they just don’t listen to women.

Rule #0 that supersedes all rules: DON’T.

Yeah.... because there is absolutely no games available on XboxOne...

Fair enough. There are also these monstrosities that I’ve actually witnessed people wearing. In public.

I’m sorry, can we talk about Deray’s vest for a minute? Dude needs to retire that thing. It was fine at first, I thought it was cool when he started wearing it on TV, etc. But between wearing it over his shirt/tie while he was running for mayor and wearing it with his doctoral robe at the commencement for The New…

While we’re bashing this guy’s fashion choices, espadrilles on men are just the fucking worst. The other guy’s sick shoe/sock combo makes them look even worse.

HBO’s “Silicon Valley” is one of the best documentaries they’ve done in a long time.

I love the idea that these despicable people rushed home after plopping down $50-$60 on a brand new game and were instantly banned again. “I’ve spent $200 on this game, and I can’t play it! I just want to be able to cheat and feel superior to others while simultaneously ruining the game for everyone else. Is that too…

Javier Munoz - who will likely take over for Lin since he’s been the understudy - is actually better in the role than Lin, IMO. I adore Lin, but Javier brings more of an edge that I think the character needs. I didn’t feel like I was missing out when I saw his performance.

“Some people are like, I want to go to Haiti, and I want to go to Thailand, and I want to get orphans, and I want to get prostitutes off the street. I realized that my heart was to help beautiful people. This is my mission.”

Agreed, but there’s a difference between a one star review for “My drink took 10 minutes” and one star review for “I’m out $1000 and this contractor did a shit job I have to pay even more money to fix.” One is overkill, the other is probably not.
