Cause cults/religions/whatever don’t like money and power? Ok.

So to clarify, shitty mass produced statues of 100% racist traitors to the country must be protected at all costs, national historic landmarks, fuck that shit, chop it up and sell it off. Calling these people scum would be an insult to scum.

I drove around the Southwest early in this past summer (hit 5 national parks!) and saw Newspaper Rock. It’s amazing. It just gives you a sense of time and history that few things do.

While parts of it were obviously meant to be funny, as a whole, Get Out was one of the best horror movies I’ve seen in a long time. I get that it’s satire, but it’s the kind that cuts too close to the bone of reality. How many of us can relate to the overly invasive, fetishistic questions Chris is subjected to at the

They may very possibly be like that, but then the men you know aren’t representative of men overall—studies consistently show that men interrupt women far more than they interrupt men (or than women interrupt anyone), that men listen less attentively to women than they do to men, and that men talk more than women in

You again!

If you can’t walk away from a talk with at least three mental notes about what they said, you lose.

At the Deadspin awards can we formally rename this trophy after Savage? Obviously give some consideration to others like Osweiler who could conceivably sweep the rest of the season

This NFL back up QB thing is a bigger scam than Chicago parking.

Been trying to write a piece on this since the weekend when I heard Charlamagne call himself Donkey of the Day for not knowing about rape culture until recently.

I don’t see that.

Nah, that’s like the people who say “I’m not good at” returning people’s calls, emails or texts. Bullshit. As long as you are talking about what you are or are not, you are not doing. You’re stalling with the shame show. Its moral masturbation

Acknowledgment of complicity / guilt can be a dodge in place of meaningful action, or it can be a first step followed by meaningful action. It’s the meaningful action that tells you something about the sincerity and intentions.

My 12 year old nerdy kid had a sleepover with three other 12 year old boys. I heard a lot of what they said (because god DAMN are they loud) and some of it was really problematic. Yeah, it was my kid and yeah, there were consequences.

Yeah.

Wait, I think I get it. Calling yourself trash is how men deal with the fact that they actually like patriarchy and misogyny because it benefits them. So they show shame and that covers up for the fact that they still want dominance. If you say “I’m trash” and do a little performative feminism, you can avoid changing

I feel sorry for people who need a shame step in order to reform behavior. I feel sorry for people who need an “I am” before they can move to “I do”. I feel sorry for people that need others to take the shame step because they were never taught you can skip it. Shame is a useless emotion and actually a way to avoid

I got my PS4 from Kohl’s last black friday. It was $250 with $75 in credit. I used that to get a couple of games, a Zelda shirt and some household items.

Those are good deals and I shop at Kohl’s so the Kohl’s cash would be useful. Thank you for the update.

Kohl’s is having the 500GB X-Box One S for the same price for $189.99, too, but with no game and $45 in Kohl’s Cash.
