Hot taek: All of Metallica’s “Golden Period” records (except for Kill ‘Em All) are overly stiff wank fests that are good for lifting weights or some shit but not for rocking out, and the band has been a lot better since The Black Album.

It’s also why we’re staring down the barrel of the “First Amendment Defense Act” that makes it okay to discriminate again wide swaths of people.
I think you make a valid point, in that Trump pretty much ran a more vulgar and overtly racist version of the Republican playbook, but the hate and ugliness he’s unleashed in the process of running that playbook is giving a lot of people pause, and for good reason. The last 18 months can’t just be waved off,…
Someone posted a tweet (I don’t remember whose) about how Pence looks like the Congressman who steps to the podium to propose legislation to outlaw the X-Men.
Julius is technically third year (he broke his leg in the first game of his rookie year and missed the rest of the season, but he did play).

...Ben...benghazi...?
It’s the strongman thing that Hamilton mentions above. Donald Trump is an inveterate conman, and the idea that a billionaire real estate magnate who has benefited tremendously from the system as currently constituted is going to do anything but cut taxes for the rich and further gut any remaining safety net for…
I had a pretty strained relationship with my Texan, Alex Jones-loving, “paleoconservative” father before this, so now I get to look forward to our annual phone call as oppose to our “bimonthly kinda?” phone call
Speaking as a (half)white, straight male living in Los Angeles, I voted for Hillary (even though California will most assuredly go blue even had I stayed at home on the couch scratching myself) both because I think it’s symbolically important for women and also because, while my vote may not matter to the Electoral…
Or maybe brilliance in coaching doesn’t necessarily translate to other avenues of expression, like writing or nuanced political thought
Paint that thing white and use it for Michael Myers in the next HALLOWEEN movie.
So I assume they revoked MacMahon’s credentials for the reasons cited, realized those reasons also applied to Stein, and then revoked his credentials so as not to appear hypocritical? That’s the only logic I can discern here (which is not to suggest that it isn’t still rock stupid).
Gonna disagree with you on that Lakers/Sunset assessment. The Sunset are no good, but the young, Lukes Walton-coached Lakers are fun as hell. They won’t cracked the playoffs barrier this year, but so far every one of their games has been worth the watch
It’s not just him, it’s also the new coaching staff. They’re whipping the ball around a lot more and the kids look like they’re having fun in the new system. Sure, a lot of the old system was because Kobe was there, but a lot of it was also because Byron Scott is a bad and curmudgeonly coach.
Yeah, that was my thinking: The Warriors were on the second half of a back-to-back, sure, but also Luke worked with that team and that coaching staff for two years, and he actually coached the young players, who actually look like they’re enjoying playing together, as opposed to last year, when Byron Scott benched the…
That’s true, too, but blow-outs can be boring (hell, when the World Series was 5-1 last night, I started considering switching the channel just because it *seemed* like the Cubs might win in a laugher). Trump has seemed maddeningly bulletproof this election, but Clinton had a fairly solid lead as recently as two weeks…
Gotta keep this race competitive for ratings. There’s money to be made from America being so violently split politically.
Then what is the right way to go about it? Kaepernick’s way has opened a lot of dialogue (much of which, like most dialogues of this nature, has devolved into shouting and ear-plugging, but that’s humanity at work for you) in a way that him quietly giving money to activist groups would not have. I have not yet heard…
