He murdered tons of people, but because he’s left of center I’m going to defend him!

When you wear a T-shirt with Fidel Castro and Malcom X on it, you are making a political statement, whether you want to or not.

I think, like most things, people and systems aren’t binary. Like, sure, Castro brought improved education and universal healthcare to Cuba. He also horded a huge fortune while his people literally could not own microwaves, imprisoned gays in labor camps, never fulfilled his promise of free elections, jailed and…

The $15 minimum wage idea is nice-sounding, but fraught with peril. It will escalate the drive for large corporations to automate and eliminate labor. Smaller businesses will go away in large numbers, and what will be unseen is the number of small businesses that will never open going forward.

Colombia* Christ, how many times does it have to be written in the article before you gringos get it right?

I think you also know that’s not what they’re saying. Nobody is tearing at their chest wailing, “Won’t someone think about Johnthony’s precious feefees?”, it was a critique on the validity of the reporting in this specific instance. You’re being purposely obtuse so you can edge in with snark.

Of course not, but you are not trying to produce click bait.

How can they overturn a Supreme Court decision? What’s the specific mechanism they’d use to do that? The court doesn’t just reverse itself or amend its decisions later. There would need to be a new case. What’s the argument that would flip what was already a 5-4 decision by a conservative court?

And people are wondering why the Dems lost lol.

You’re asking people around here to analyze this objectively. Good luck with that.

Someone should tell Jerry it’s the mannequin challenge not the Michael J Fox challenge.

“the entire team will join the ill-fated movement.” I’m not an editor, but I’m a little confused about the phrasing here - Ill-fated usually means unlucky, I wouldn’t say the movement is unlucky, ill-conceived might have been a better choice.

Money will help protect you from a web blog invading your right to privacy for their own personal profit.

The righteous, reflexive indignation aimed at anything Bill Simmons utters or (infrequently) writes these days makes me laugh. I’m old enough to remember when Bill Simmons was nearly universally hailed by those who mattered as the best, most innovative voice for the times as the interwebs came of age. His brand of…

I’ll remember how he spent tens of thousands of dollars of his own money every year to buy toys for Houston kids in the foster care system, because that’s the kind of man he is. And I’ll also remember that his greatness shouldn’t be overshadowed by the shittiness of the teams he played on.

It was good.

Go back to fucking defunct Gawker where you belong.

You could even just put a loose ice cube on a shelf. If it’s suddenly not there one day (i.e. melted flat), well there you go! No coins or even containers needed.

Graduate degrees in a non-professional field (medicine, law, accounting, etc.) are a complete waste of time and money. You are a sheep person if you spending your time and money getting one of these degrees. The real world does not give a fuck about your Master’s in Personnel Development or whatever the fuck you’ve…

More like Repuka, am I right? Haha no no, seriously though, that young lady is just terrible.
