Years of Rice and Salt by Kim Stanley Robinson. it’s an amazing piece of alt history fiction.

this next generation of young men coming up seem really terrific. feminism isn’t necessary anymore, clearly the guys got the message and won’t behave like total fucking assholes anymore.

did you go to an “elite” school HamNo? i’m not asking to be snarky, just trying to see what your starting point is on this?

touchdowns are goals. FGs are corner kicks.

a thing i’ve found really effective in dealing with all of the bullshit of the NFL is not watching it at all. seems to be working wonders.

so, guy who plays for a team with a racist nickname (that you are now using? what the fuck?) makes an unconciously racist allusion to said nickname.

so i’ve had sex before, but i’ve never been FUCKED. how’s it feel? (i love you all and am sad about the theilnonsense of it all, btw)

i have neither, though a man bun is no longer offered on my hair’s menu :-(

fucking context, how does it work?

during the 2010 campaign, where i was doing some video and other work for the brown folk in CA, i was approached by fred davis, legendary right wing message guy (back to nixon, reagan, the willie horton ad, etc) to work for whitman.

one of the top joys of being father to a boy i’ve had thus far was to give my then 8 year old calvin and hobbes. i gave him the complete collection that’s now for sale on amazon. i think he’s read it 20 times. i hope that watterson’s ethos and humanity will permeate my son’s brain on some deep level, whether he…

go read “the hunting of the president” by joe conason and the great gene lyons and report back. you will find that all of those gates are horseshit. utter and total horseshit. and you’ll feel sad about yourself and how easily gulled you are by paid agents of richard mellon scaife and his ilk.

also how is it i’m followed by nick fucking denton but am still in the greys? it’s truly ridiculous how this (doesn’t) work.

harsh, but not harsh enough. you are talking about the enablers, the ones who allow chin-stroker pundits to pretend we have two sane parties in this country. we don’t. one can’t get its head around FUCKING SCIENCE. the other at least tries to, sometimes. but every kasich allows a both-sides-do-it routine (pootine, it…

just to be clear: i get that you did what you were supposed to do, on some meta-journalistic level—you wrote an article. about a musician. who is rich.

in the world of a) PR and b) NFL PR that response was about as brave as you will ever see. that was like the fucking Alamo of PR NFL bravery. Conlon basically stood in front of the amassed English troops of King Edmund outnumbered 10:1 and gave a rallying cry, that’s how brave he was.

stadium was a lot more full for the NYCFC game on saturday.

is it just me, or does the villainy these days seem cartoonish and over-the-top? i mean, this article would have been fine if it was just “that rapist protecting asshole Police Chief is at FSU lecturing about rape”. ok, 90 out of 100 evil points.

i wonder if there are any muslims who neither serve in the army nor who protect people who are “in the field” trying to sell snake oil who are also worthy of defending. muslims who are just....muslims. just living. my driver in the lyft i took yesterday. my relative’s neighbors in dearborn. they might be worth talking…

i’ve had the technovorm for 3 years now and it has performed amazingly well across the board. the brew-cup broke (it has three settings for how fast the water will pass through the coffee grounds and that means a shutter, and shutters break) but i was able to get a replacement from the manufacturer in two days for 15…
