As a Blazers fan, you get used to a sort of polite, quiet disappointment (I’m not quite old enough to remember the Sam Bowie draft pick, but the pain of the team taking a 73-year old Greg Oden still lingers). Yeah, rationally I know they’re probably going to lose to the Dubs, but goddammit, right at this moment I’m…

It was too great. so pumped up for the upcoming season of Human Giant and Reno 9/11.

I mean, we’re talking about an episode in which we don’t get to see anyone’s reaction to Arya killing the Night King. In which Jon is being celebrated as a battle hero and Dany ignored, even though her contributions were equal. And in which we don’t get to see how the Stark sibs react to their brother being a…

I guess I get the idea behind the Red Sox being ok with people making individual choices but it’s hard for me to imagine an organization thinking there’s validity in players choosing to turn down an invitation to the White House because the current occupant is such a mush-brained racist shithead and also being ok with…

More to the point: what’s with all the random shit cluttering up televised radio show studios? Surely not every one of those objects sparks joy...

The Night King clearly, what with his army of White Walkers. 

The weird part is how they gave him a winky, check this out bitch slight personality. Bran is clearly a tedious robot now that he is the raven or whatever.

Special Guest appearance by The Cryptkeepr in the coolest HBO crossover moment in history? That would totally make it worthwhile.

I assume all of these Grahams (no relation) are crackers?

Ahem:

I have defended MLS on some levels over the years, and yes, Billy’s takes on American soccer are usually trash. On the one hand, he hates MLS because the quality isn’t Barcelona. On the other hand, he hates rich guys, who start soccer teams. On the OTHER other hand, he apparently has no recollection of the “good ol’…

Get the fuck outta here he’s gotta shave that shit off. That hairline is the mausoleum of all hope and desire.

I just wonder what his agent is even doing? Like, I know $35M is a lot of money, but Albies would be a steal at twice that.

Dedicated bus lanes! Buses are delayed because of traffic volumes (i.e. private vehicles), not because buses are inherently slow.

Pretty unequal ratio: 1/896. That’s one bad guy killed for every 896 weapons burglarized. Sure puts things into perspective.

What’s fascinating is that if a young boy says he has a crush on a girl or likes girls, everyone thinks it’s cute! No one thinks of sex in that moment, and likely the young boy doesn’t either. It’s just a vibe, and everyone is okay with it.

God, I just predicted a similar thing in my reply to another poster. Humanity is well aware of the futility of war, we don’t need the culmination of 7 seasons of GoT to teach us that lesson.  We’re fully capable of ignoring 3000 years of our own history thanks.

I feel like it’s going to end with some major characters dying, some major character winning the game of throne and then it’ll be like, “Oh wow, all of that and nothing REALLY changes. Circle of power/life, bro.” And everyone who invested time in the show will be pissed and every jerkoff nerd fanboy will go, “Well…

I’m pretty sure that doing something unimpressive and forgettable that still inspires eighteen thousand thinkpieces a day on The Ringer is basically the ending the show deserves. 

I’ve gotten to the point where it feels weird and uncomfortable to sleep without the guard. If my dentist told me I didn’t need it anymore, at this point I’d still wear it.
