Kawhi and george tried to team up in toronto. Only when toronto would not agree did they then shift to the clippers.

It’s all part and parcel of the same thing: their utter denial, their refusal to accept a reality they find intolerable. They’d rather live with the material consequences of failure, of denial, than admit their worldview is wrong. This is hardly unique to them: look how many decades the soviets lived in hamfisted…

She’ll never pretzel herself enough to satisfy your tone policing, it would be a waste of time to try. You never accomplish anything by working with your opponents, you never accomplish anything by compromising, by making concessions - those strategies are failures. The only way things ever get done is by making your…

Camel here? Is it your birthday?

You may tell jokes, jerry seinfeld, but you are no comedian.

Feel free to venmo me that $200/year if you think it's so small, obviously you won't miss its loss.

“stop being overly sensitive and angry”

His sexual harrassment of children is just part of the deep cover he's been engaging in as part of his campaign to take the ring down.

People went after nate because it was politically convenient to do so, their false narrative a necessity to discredit him and what he represents more broadly.

“Outside this metro, it’s purple to deep red”

The people he denigrated in his first post don't pay for anything, opm ism't just a lifestyle, it's a philosophy.

Your second example would also be legal, barring much more specificity. But the imminent threat standard is problematic, given the reality of stochastic terrorism. Nor does it make sense to bar the government from banning the advocacy of illegal conduct, which inherently has no probative value. And I would not count…

“America was formed as a unique experiment in self-governance where citizens had the Liberty to be self-reliant individuals who could pursue their own happiness without interference from an oppressive government.”

Your cherrypicked example eras are broad enough to torpedo your argument so thoroughly that there’s no need to dispute it. Not that it matters. Minus the native american population and the people who were brought here against their will the rest of the american population (the overwhelming majority) is the product of…

If he’s wrong, it could still get larsen killed; on that score I don’t think it actually matters whether the accusation against him of leaving this gang is true or not, to those gang members. The mere accusation is enough to threaten his life.

That’s not so much a defense of mark sanchez as it is a rebuttal of the idea that super bowls are a good measure of individual performance.

In fairness, he was probably so brain-damaged at that point as to have been incapable of rationally applying that advice.

Hiking on everest as it’s done now should definitely not be a thing, it’s a mockery of all the values the sport supposedly exists to uphold, so that’s not a great example. And auto use has productive social value (beyond mere entertainment) that balances its negative effects, so that’s not a great example, either.

Nowadays no stars are planning more than a couple of years out, though (see kawhi's contract) so it makes no sense to sign with the lakers now while waiting for a post-lebron future. Au contraire he might very well have an interest in winning a championship with the clippers next year and then pivoting to the lakers…

I feel like what's missing from the reporting here is an explanation of nenshi's flip flop: how much of a bootlicker do you have to be to go back and bow to the people who tried to end your career?
