There’s people that still think that Columbus proved the Earth was round.

Stupidity I’m fine with. It’s willful stupidity that embarrasses me. The fact that the GOP has branded it as a proud act of political defiance is downright obscene.

America has indeed always had an anti-intellectual streak. Trump’s America is just a culmination of a generation of conservatives and the religious right putting it into hyper-drive.

Has anyone who uses the phrase “do your own research” ever meant real research, or do they all mean watch youtube videos?

“Irving, who by all accounts is an intelligent and thoughtful man...”

Where science is treated as opinion, welcome to Trump’s America.

Meh the deferred salary is a huge benefit to the club assuming they invest the money. I’d never take deferred money. The TVM of that future dollar is less than what youd have today and can invest. It’s more hilarious he’s being paid until 2037.

The last time a baseball contract was structured this way it was because the owners of the franchise had so much investment sense and were making so much money investing that the deferred money would be covered several times over by the 8% yearly returns their friend Bernie Madoff was getting them.

This is just a false flag to try and get us to forget that the Houston Rockets missed 27 three pointers.

Chris Paul is overrated af. I said it and I stand by it.

29 and 9 are not a handful though I agree that they Warriors benefitted from Paul’s absence. But if they are not dominant, it is because they seem to get bored - if they had played with the focus of the 2d half of last night’s game (or Game 6) for Game 4 or Game 5 (esp Game 4 (12 pts in the 4th quarter?), a fully…

What’s crazy about those flick threes is when I play down in the park, it takes a shit load of energy to put up a normal three from like 8 less feet. It’s insane how effortless Steph just flings it accurately. I would need every ounce of strength to nail some of these shots it feels like.

It’s amazing that a player can spend most of his time flopping and begging for calls, and still have fans blame the refs for not giving him the benefit of the doubt.

“Goalposts? What goalposts? Goalposts were invented by the FAKE MEDIA to distract from my huge and unpresidented victory. Very bad! #MAGA”

I thought the subject was “whose fault is it that [working class people] don’t have healthcare”.

Yeah, it’s so awful that “political correctness” keeps people from being as openly awful to people who aren’t straight and white and conservative.

Did you watch the “Muslim neighbors” episode, which was pretty much straight up racism for its 23 minute running time?

Last Man Standing only got to make 6 seasons! Why must conservatives be so oppressed?

Maybe you haven’t been paying attention, but the people in charge of the country are utterly loathsome. It seems like a good time to loath.
