I want a list of every politician who has been in the public eye for 5+ years and who you worship and think has pristinely clean underwear. I bet I can locate at least one shit stain.

I, for one, am finding all the LA-based tears over this to be absolutely delicious. Magic is an arrogant, narcissistic, tone deaf prick. Rich Paul and LeBron are close behind. I love that Dell Demps trolled them, that Magic has been crying aloud about it ever since, and that their season is now completely in the…

No - are you Louis CK?

Right, they are GOP shills.  You sure you didn’t mean to post this over at FoxNews?

Pelosi is a lot of things. She isn’t spineless.  She told POTUS where to stick it when he tried to “little lady” her on live television.  She may not push the agenda as far to the left as you’d like, but its not because she lacks courage.

That’s the part that bothers me: somehow its been decided here at Splinter that you can’t be impacted / offended by anti-semitic tropes (money hungry with dual loyalties) AND against Israel’s policies in Palestine AND against people who pounding on Omar simply because of her race and religion. Those things don’t have…

Whoever wrote that statement for the school district got it wrong in literally every way possible and created a case study on poor leadership and crisis management.

As a Jew who does not support Israel simply for the sake of doing so, I 100% support this take. I think most of this outrage has to do with the fact that Rep. Omar wears headdress.

You are talking about literally every union with your statement. Maybe 20% of their work is done on behalf of decent folks who come to work each day and do a solid job. The vast majority of their time is spent defending and supporting people who aren’t close to deserving (including this guy) because (1) unions live in…

I really, really want to see a team with Kyrie and Jimmy Butler in NY.  That would be some epic assholery. 

This is exactly what I thought.  Adam Silver will shrug his shoulders in shock and we will have to watch Magic and that smug smile getting pat on the shoulders by GM’s who want to trade for Kuzma, Ball, and Ingram.

This is now very much a pattern, unfortunately. I miss the days of Deadspin breaking the Manti Te’o story. They did some kick ass reporting and wrote it up; they didn’t go fishing for angles that weren’t there based on what they uncovered. Its become exhausting reading some of the posts (and comments) on this site,…

Cocksonville

Beto got hyped because he nearly won a seat in freaking TX.  I knew all about him and I don’t watch MSNBC.

So Kamala is “auto bad” because she was a prosecutor?

Yes, its a bad thing. Here’s how you know....

That’s News to me

We are moving towards ideological purity as a marker for success rather than actually implementing / executing progressive ideas.

What he did was inappropriate. Her reaction was although he did what Kareem Hunt did. There are degrees to this, you know.

I’m white and I don’t get why other white folks are up in arms over Spike’s comments. They were actually pretty measured and historically accurate. There’s no reasonable way to interpret them as threatening or hostile, IMO. I honestly don’t get it.
