there is a hip hop song that has a crackly sample of the Empire Today jingle in the intro - does anyone know what song that is?  I googled it but came up empty.  

I’m all for studying MDMA and promoting it’s therapeutic (and recreational) uses, but this study seems like only a little more scientific than when we used to get my buddy’s cat stoned in college.

I don’t blame him for wanting out of Minnesota.  Winter is coming.  

That’s grounds for dismissal. Paper clips work fine for that and can be disposed of after one use. There’s no need to spread poopy pipe resin to utensils.

Don’t fuck with a girl’s tweezers

LeBron is indeed the world’s most perfect human.  So, of course, he eats ass.  

I love how the girl on the Okocim can is shrugging, as if to say, “I mean, if you really need it, go ahead.”

Yeah, I paused my adblocker and now it works.  Not sure if that’s intentional or not.  

Ok, thank you - I’m not using UBlock, but I am using AdBlock.  I hit “pause on this site” and now it worked.  Is this Deadspin/Gizmodo’s way of making me not use my adblocker?

Does anyone else have issues playing embedded videos from Twitter on this site?  I almost never can.  Drew’s WYTS was an exercise in frustration at many points.  

I mean, this sounds fine to me.  I prefer my High Life in the 12 oz. glass bottle, but to each his own.  

Fair enough - but I think the site puts these comments into context. Deadspin is (well, used to be, anyways) a place where people made the worst possible jokes about any given situation, happy or sad.

Yes, it is worse - and the reason why is that the jokes have no pretense of being a good person. There’s no mask there. It’s honest.  Anyone who makes a joke about someone with an autoimmune disease is an asshole, but they’re not pretending to be something else.  

So was this post out of genuine sympathy or just an effort to make it about what a good person YOU are? To soak up some of those endorphins that you get when people click that ‘like’ button on something you wrote?

HNNNNGGG....

Yes, I do think that women on the whole are more honest and forthright when it comes to power. Are there examples to the contrary? Of course.

Evidence seems to bear that the more an institution (i.e. athletics, organized religions, the military, police, government in general, the penal system, etc) is controlled by old white men, the more corruption - and the cover up of corruption - will infest that institution. Old white men will fuck over the general…

It’s my own fault for doing so, but reading comments on PFT and FoxNews on the articles about this has been just about the most depressing thing I’ve done in weeks.

If you consider “I don’t want people of color to be randomly killed by police and generally suffer unjust consequences because of their skin color” to be a political belief...well, I just... I don’t know how to respond to that.

That’s a lot of textbooks! I am an asshole a lot of the time, can’t disagree with you there.
