It gives me hope* that the national conversation about the president’s foibles involves his choice of sports drink and not his penchant to screw sex workers while his third wife is pregnant with his child.

Catchings won the MVP in 2011, but her age-30 season in 2010 is arguably the most utterly statistically bonkers show of dominance in basketball history. Certainly in women’s basketball, and it’s up there with Wilt’s 1961 season, MJ’s 1990 campaign, LeBron in 2009, and Steph in 2016 in the top five seasons, men OR…

It’s times like these that I think one Lucius Cornelius Sulla was on to something 2,100 years ago.

I am a survivor of the Massachusetts adolescent mental health system of the 1990s. I still have nightmares, flashbacks, all the classic signs of good old-fashioned PTSD...

“Supermarket worker Sue Morrisson also explained that in “a vibrant, modern town” these Mario pipes might work. But currently, the city is “dilapidated and tired looking,” so these fun pots just look out of place.”

This is why I used the phrase “unintended advantage”. If maneuvering an NPC is explicitly part of the gameplay mechanic/optimum strategy, that’s not the same thing as “lol big lady got stuck and is now a sitting duck.”

Duncan and KG are the first and (depending on how you feel about Karl Malone) second or third-best power forwards ever to play the game.

What a lame list (or “what’s weak this week.”)

“The term ‘experiences’ is consistent with how we’ve evolved our terminology to reflect our realization of the metaverse.”

“What type of person doesn’t like Apple?”

“I will have my revenge!” - Custer

Funny how the same people who believe the Jews killed their precious Jesus are happy to “the enemy of my enemy is my friend” when it comes to the Moozlims, who they hate a whole lot more.

It didn’t directly. What it did do was create a new pipeline for sketch comedy talent that’s not beholden to the Lorne Michaels machine.

This is a better-stated version of what I myself was going to say. The hot second any media outlet operating in the US is seen as supporting terrorism, even accidentally, the State Department/DHS drops the hammer of the gods on them, and we’re not just talking fines; the potential exists for criminal charges against…

“You can even become president by doing it.”

The utter irrelevance of SNL in sketch comedy since the rise of MADtv and Chappelle’s Show and (amusingly) Key&Peele is never more on display than when they’re exposed for what they are by having a host who’s obviously slumming it by sinking to the level of a bush-league once-great-but-long-obsolete show like SNL.

As someone who’s generally small-c conservative (although I long ago broke ranks with the Republican party over the three R’s of recidivists, racism, and religion within their membership), I used to be amenable to the idea that “Black people just don’t want to improve their community” that is de rigueur White asshole…

Everybody says “don’t use Google Chrome anymore” but at least I don’t get this bullshit.

The Blizzard of ‘78 not only caused a bunch of shortages in its own right, but the weather forecast completely whiffed on the severity of the storm, meaning anybody in New England who either remembers that storm or is familiar with the lore of said storm (I was seven months old when it hit but Mom talked about it…

I wonder just how much travel they want you to do, because a thousand bucks pretax (and since it’s 1099 work, taxed at a higher rate because you’re on the hook for both portions of the Social Security tax plus the income tax) doesn’t favorably compare to even a decent job in the kinds of cities they’re probably…
