It’s kind of like how Huckabee denounced the shooting by saying you shouldn’t even shoot up a place “where millions of babies die each year.” They’ve got one hell of a backhand, these guys.

Gawker is already terrible now. It’s just boring.

Some guy told me that once. “I’ve never been into fat girls before you!” He meant it as a compliment. I was a size 12. What even.

Just remember that her substance abuse doesn’t give her the right to treat you this way. It doesn’t excuse her behavior. You deserve better.

My grandmother once gave me soap and generic acne wash for my birthday when I was 15. I opened this gift in front of friends and family, and there was a horrible dead silence. I had bad skin, which cleared up perfectly in a couple of years once my hormones stopped going nuts. Grandmothers can be the worst.

It might be your proportions are off. A lot of times people who don’t really know their body or don’t want to know their body will try to dress like people on TV or like a mannequin, but those people have different heights, hips, torso length, etc. Try dressing for your body shape. It’s amazing how many different ways…

Someone has to make a stuffing joke. Not me though. Not today.

I generally don’t cry over things like this, not because I don’t care but because it’s easy to be removed from it. This though, I’ve stayed just a few doors down from Le Belle Equip and ate there with my brother not long ago. I had several friends in the city on Friday. It feels wrong to try to personalize a tragedy,…

Back when I first started practicing BJJ, the place I was at would pair me up with rookie guys and then inform me that it didn’t matter if I won anyway because I’d never be allowed to actually fight in the big leagues. I don’t want to be a UFC fighter or anything, and I’m not at all skilled enough, but it’s so cool…

Yes. It’s actually a big controversy right now in the UFC. The officials either jump in way too early, like in the case of grappling where someone could break a hold if given a bit longer, or they come in way too late. There have been a few other cases this season that were just gruesome, and that’s coming from people…

It’s true; testifying in these cases is painful, humiliating, and sometimes dangerous. It requires the victim not only to face vicious scrutiny but also to face down his or her abuser and relive the trauma. It’s even worse knowing that after going through all of that, the abuser will get off due to complication, and…

I wish I could give you more stars.

The thing is though, we’re not talking about a “flubbed” game. This is the abuse of women that not only gets marginalized and covered up, it’s practically rewarded because the NFL will do anything it can to keep these guys out of jail and to continue paying them millions of dollars. It’s a massive, powerful…

Didn’t he also attack one of the sideline guys or something?

He won the appeal because she “disappeared.” Considering this is the organization that had Rice’s wife apologize publically for causing him trouble, do you really think she was just paid some hush money? The criminal justice system doesn’t work when you obstruct it. Like she reportedly said, nothing’s going to happen…

I know this is rocketing right into pseudoscience , but I wonder how that might play into the concept of quantum immortality or the notion that consciousness could continue beyond the body because it’s a projection from something beyond it anyway. Not a soul as we understand it but something more than just chemical…

It makes you wonder if forces we don’t quite understand yet like gravity and the pull of anti-matter don’t somehow play into this theory. Maybe it’s because we can’t yet fully appreciate the fabric of the universe and how its state before the Big Bang informs the relationship of its fundamental elements now.

That’s what I always heard. I’ve never met the guy, so all I know is hearsay from those who knew him, but everyone says the same thing. He came off as way, way more insecure and try hard than anything else. I’m glad he’s found some actual happiness.

It’s Whitefish Bay, WI. You could probably see Hensen from space in that town.

They’re all such cowards, I doubt any of them would follow through with anything, but I think it’s on SXSW to provide extra security. Might not be in the budget? Who knows.
