I took a cartload of groceries, including 2 cases of beer to the checkout. When it was all rung up and bagged and in the cart I realized I'd forgotten to put my debit card back into my wallet after paying bills online that morning. I'm a regular at that store and live only a block away so I asked the cashier if he…

I eagerly await the publication of his memoir, Fuck: My Life.

In fact, both volcanic lightning and volcanic lightening exist (though I don't believe either of them exit). What a world!

My brother lives six miles from this volcano, in Kagoshima. Sakurajima erupts pretty much every day. It’s not a lightning-spiked lavafest each time but even so it’s quite a sight to walk down a lazy, tree-lined subtropical street and see a giant plume of volcanic ash on the horizon in the blink of an eye.

I've got a freezer full of venison right now, thanks to my dad's hunting. I live in the Midwest, in an area full of hunters, and I'm so surprised I'm still introducing people to actually eating venison all the time. As ground chuck, it is indistinguishable from lean beef, IMO. Steaks, sausage, everything that's good…

Yeah but have you smelled a freshly popped can of tennis balls? Oh my god.

I'm just a firm believer in what you give to the universe will eventually come back to you, not now, not in a measurable amount of time, or all at once even, but the inexplicable things in life sadly fall upon how you treated others in the past.

It matters because finding out that an author that I had previously loved (as a child I loved Anne McCaffrey and Orson Scott Card, and more recently Sherri Tepper), said or believed something shitty about, for example, gay people, made it really hard for me, as the daughter of a gay man, to go back and re-read their…

I support the overall idea. But your comment is quite narrow minded.

Your assumption that paying attention to subject, theme, story, topic, genre somehow equals not choosing challenging or diverse books is ridiculous.

I didn't really pay attention to such things as author's identity until a couple years ago.
Funny…

I have seriously NEVER considered the age, sex or race of the author before reading a book. Most of the time, I do not even know it, and quite frankly, I don't care.

This is the first of their games I've bought "as it happens", and I began regretting it after the first two months of waiting for Ep 2. Seriously, I'll need to replay episode 1 to remember the details, which is inexcusable.

Haha I live in San Francisco, where gay men are badass. They aren't handbags.

I would enjoy it if there wasn't this insane insistence on superlatives as facts. "No argument for anyone other than Barça having the strongest forward line on the planet." Bale-Benzema-Ronaldo? Ribery-Muller-Robben? Sure there's an argument, a fun argument at that. In the Coutinho article from whenever that was,…

That picture is misleading to the point of being dishonest. Security guard wasn't putting his hand behind his back, she was leading him away. Watch the video.

Detroit Tigers, 1927-28.

That looks like a Bruins "B" on the right.

Please demonstrate a double standard in anyone involved in this conversation. Heyman, Draper, me, anyone. You're pulling together a whole lot of different voices in trying to paint your picture. Did Heyman celebrate Washington's coke habit? Vilify Gordon? "The media" is not a monolith.
