Passes the eye test to me. Someone intentionally trying to hurt someone, in any sport, will likely get a suspension and fine. I can’t tell what you are complaining about, the refs calling penalties or the refs not calling penalties? I mean, this is a league where all superstars take huge hits. You want to talk…

You think the main reason that hockey isn’t popular is because of rules? Not the fact that the vast majority of this country is unable to grow up playing the sport based on either geographic location or the high price of entry?

Bullshit.

Hey, I’m cool with white people if they’re kind, honest (as much as we can be as humans) and retain basic human decency. I have no issues with white people, as a whole, or even as an abstraction of a population. But I have a problem with white people who know they benefit from the systems largely in place for them,…

Tell men that a single room at a single event is off limits to them for a couple of hours and it’s a war crime to be tried at the Hague. Implement and nourish a work culture openly hostile for over a decade and “ThaT’S JuSt VieDEo GamES BRo”

I ruined the studio albums for myself because the very first album by the Hip that I ever got was “Live Between Us” and the studio versions of what they played on that just doesn’t compare to how tight they were as a band, in performance

The Hip! You posted The Hip! May you live to be a thousand years old.

I just finished Iconoclasts and Kingdom: New Lands, and I need to get back to Hollow Knight. Probably Octopath Traveler and Oxen Free if I can. I was on everyone’s chapter 4's in OT. I’m glad I missed all these indie games when they were released, as I’ve got tons to play now on the Switch and I’m loving it.

Former Marine here. I am a 2x combat veteran. I enjoyed my time in the Corps and made some lifelong friends. The cognitive dissonance is real.

I feel like these guys are hoping for forgiveness (or maybe just... forget-ness?), but they’re skipping the steps where you really work to acknowledge, not minimize, the harm you did, AND you take steps to make things right. Forgiveness shouldn’t automatically happen because time passes, and victims don’t owe it to…

Until a person who has committed an offense has actually acknowledged what they’ve done, apologized, and made every effort to make amends, I refuse to accept them as a fellow human. I don’t care if it’s cutting me off in traffic or murder.

She’s an interesting hypothetical. On the one hand, she’s a risible illustration of the principle that all you need now is fame — that politics no longer has even a smidgen of merit left — it is all Q Score.

“I’m definitely white, and I don’t generally feel targeted by them.”

Yep, exactly. Racism and white supremacy are the water in which we swim, and there is no reason for anyone to assume I’m one of the fish that knows what water is, or even given that, that I’m a fish who remembers it every time. I’m a cis-het white woman, and there are plenty of reasons for Black people to assume I’m…

I mean, look at the CNN poll that shows 62% of white men and 53% of white women voted for Trump. More than half of us who voted went out there fully aware that Trump’s state policies would harm anyone who wasn’t a straight white dude and voted for him anyway. Over 50% of us voted to hurt black people. If over half of…

I’d respect teams a lot more if they were just honest about guys like Winston and didn’t try to shove this bullshit down our throats:

 It's always fun when people who have no idea what communism is try and criticize it.

“without realizing that socialism and communism have led directly to fascism in record time anytime they’ve been tried throughout human history”

“authoritarian, oppressive leadership?”
