Yes, that’s what I realized when they flashed the cast names at the end of the trailer.

Because I am very, very lame, I spent the entire trailer up to the end when they flashed the cast names, just going “That guy, whoever he is, looks freakishly like a young Ice Cube. So weird.”

True. See also Mike “Fuck you Mike Milbury, you racist asshole.” Milbury.

They’re making a joke about criticism of Puig for vaguely defined character or behavioral faults and the conservatism of baseball’s conventional wisdom.

Damned if you do, damned if you don’t. People complained bitterly in season 1 that Kala and Riley didn’t have interesting enough skills.

Some combinations of writers and actors are compelling enough to pull off unlikable leads, but when they aren’t, you’re just left with an unpleasant person you don’t want to spend your limited time with. It takes something extra to willingly hang out with assholes.

Most murders are people you know or live near. The reasons why people kill each other tend to involve relationships. Domestic violence, beefs with coworkers or neighbors, infidelity, etc. and people don’t tend to travel huge distances to commit violent crimes, so stuff tends to happen in people’s own neighborhoods,…

If everyone calls penises testicles, then testicles becomes the word for penis. *shrug* People not knowing their own anatomy, especially their reproductive/sex organs is a problem, but it’s not going to get solved on the pedantry about casual conversation vocabulary end of society, in an environment where kids can’t…

Your anecdote just further reinforces that the “vulva” battle is lost. People don’t use the word and it’s highly unlikely any cultural force will come along to raise its profile.

This isn’t a scientific or medical discussion. The “vulva not vagina” people are really going to have to accept that linguistic battle has been lost, at least so far as casual conversation goes.

The ESPN Body issue just crushes the SI swimsuit issue. The photographic concepts are more interesting, there’s way, way more diversity in race, genders and body types, and the tie-in to actual sports is vastly stronger.

Except it’s,

“I’m not sorry, that I will tell my goddaughter that she was not a good person, due to her personal choices. The reality is not always pretty but maybe finding a better individual who holds themselves to a higher standard of not doing drugs.”

It depresses me that this article isn’t the dumbest take I’ve read in even the past couple days (I read a column about the Cosby trial yesterday that made me want to throw the Earth into the Sun).

Winners:

Graphics, day night cycles, blah blah big universe blah. I’m sure it’s all very nice, I don’t care.

To be fair, if you think all the games in the genre are subpar, then that means there’s space for someone to make the “great one”.

Yeah, it’s like Blizzard making a first person shooter...madness.

He sort of weirdly sounds like a pitch shifted Fetty Wap.

I would half-seriously argue that the past year or so of Trump-era politics have seriously skewed people’s ability to detect satire.
