Weird that they would employ so many underage workers, especially in an environment where they might be exposed to “nudity, sexual scenarios, racial epithets, suggestive gestures, profanity and references to stereotypes.”

Nice cynical take. No, he got played like a stupid drug addicted older white guy who likes doing blow off (redacted) black women while having moral issues about black men kneeling for that stupid song while protesting inequality. He got exactly what he deserved and so far, as far I can tell... only other white men…

He only did it because it was the wrong move. It’s like your one friend who always heads the wrong direction out of the bar or whatever. It’s so consistent, it almost an ability.

When he pulled Scherzer after giving up a hit in like the 7th inning, I realized that’s gotta be among the earliest times he’s ever pulled a starter.

Wow, Dusty Baker concerned about an ace pitcher not having enough rest? Scott Boras asking to be taken at face value? There is nobody to believe here.

Baker only fucked up if you believe he was actually confused. I am probably giving Dusty way too much credit here, but maybe he knew damn well what was up, was furious about a perceived lack of manning-up by his ace pitcher, and gave a transparently bullshit response when asked about it precisely because he did not…

TC needs to be the first ‘name’ to NAME NAMES.

I don’t think the same people making that critique are embracing him now.

Did something happen three months ago, or did people just feel like digging up debates from 15 years ago because they were nostalgic for when that was all they were worrying about?

Markerting is just swinging balls confident to tag the trailer with #starwarsuk and have zero concern for the ulterior implications that could arise for that were this a film with less excitement surrounding it.

To be fair, there are evil chip stacking motherfuckers in Iceland too, and they were able to finance all the good stuff by selling out their banking system to hedge funds. Also to be fair, there’s a ton of great stuff bankrolled by the Kochs in New York.

This probably has a GREAT deal to do with how Iceland invested in after-school programs for teens to reduce drug and alcohol use, as described in this article from The Atlantic. They funded arts, music and athletic programs, all of which employed adults to teach and mentor the young people. Its success is nothing less…

Meh.

I’m with A.O. Scott. A good movie can’t be “spoiled.”

If the trailer “ruins” the viewing experience, that says more about the overall quality of the movie than anything else.

“Brain, Sami just pulled Owens from the table!”

Sami heel turn?

Sami heel turn.

Both of the HIAC matches were brilliant this time around, focusing on very different ways. I thought the tag match was better, but they really told a solid story in this match. And that Sami reveal was a thing of beauty.

So Shawshank gets a mention but not Carrie (Sissy Spacek)

I don’t go out of my way to watch MMA but when I do happen to catch it it’s pretty much always captivating. And that submission was fucking awesome.

We settled this freaking 70+ years ago - you can’t expel students for not saying the pledge or otherwise acknowledging the flag(West Virginia v. Barnette) . You can’t expel or threaten students for taking peaceful, non-disruptive of class purpose/learning protests like silent actions/arm bands (Tinker v. Des Moines).…
