no she is referring to the “it” as herself which is why i wrote that she was deploying black men as “both object and misogynist,” although i’m mad now that i didn’t write “both object and objectifier,” as parallelism would have been better writing. fuck.

I mean, perhaps this dude was looking at her thinking, “How rude of her to be looking at her cellphone during a fancy event!” Or maybe he was just staring into space in her general direction.
I’M A FUCKING QWEEEEEEN!!
I watched three episodes of Girls and couldn’t believe how much it lacked self unawareness. I kept waiting for the punch line— waiting for it to reveal itself as a parody of stereotypical Millenials, waiting for it to let me know it was in on the joke: Hannah is terrible! But I kept watching and came to the horrific…
Just a couple of Tea Party soccer moms chattin’ at Panera!
There is absolutely nothing about Lena Dunham that I enjoy.
Lest we remind you that it was JEZEBEL that couldn’t get enough of Dunham when her show first premiered. I and many others kept commenting that she was over-rated as fuck and no one at Jezebel would listen.
The Great Society and War on Poverty were actually going really well in a lot of ways until the Right dismantled them in the 1980s and decided to double down on the War on Drugs in a way that gutted inner city communities.
I am part Romani (ethnic group generally referred to as Gypsies). It’s not merely a lifestyle.
The thing that really blows my mind about this is that the Chargers knew that Goff and Wentz were going to go 1-2 in some order once the Eagles-Browns trade happened, so they knew who would be available and could have entered into contract negotiations (even if just cursory negotiations) with Bosa at that point and…
He goes back into the draft next year, and the Chargers will be prohibited from picking him again.
Since the Chargers are asking Bosa to play “out of position” in their 3-4 defense, I think that increases his chances of underperforming. Also, leave it to the Chargers to waste a high pick on a guy that doesn’t fit their scheme.
It’s not a moot point if Bosa underperforms, which is a real possibility in today’s NFL. Bosa needs that security, security that is guaranteed by all the other teams in the NFL except San Diego. The offset language matters because the Chargers are choosing to make it matter.
I worked in an NFL front office for a spell (as a total lackey, this is not a humblebrag) and yes. When 90+% of your revenues are guaranteed for the year no matter what you do during said year, it’s not exactly a breeding ground for business excellence.
I think the most overlooked fact in these discussions is Bosa’s family.
A couple million *only in the ridiculously unlikely scenario their #3 overall pick is so bad they cut him during his rookie contract*. Let’s not act like they’re actually negotiating over total expected compensation, the Chargers just want to maintain a position where every single draft pick is subjected to the worst…
Plenty of leverage. He doesn’t play this year, then reenters the draft and is a 1st round pick again.
Do the Chargers think anyone is buying their side of the story? Do they think they are going to bully him into accepting a bad deal by getting the media to badmouth Bosa? Did they think Bosa was not going to respond and just roll over? Are they really that arrogant and stupid?
I am constantly amazed at the lack of professionalism many “professional” people display. The front offices of sports teams in particular seem to be a breeding ground for this type of “professional”.
