I am a little older than you. I live in what is technically poverty. I have no masters, not sure i would have wanted that extra debt really, my loans are a lot as it is. I can’t pay my bills some months. I have to grovel to get a few extra days to find cash in hand work. I certainly can’t save anything. But you know…

isn’t linsanity actually a good example of how l.a. can’t restore all luster?

Phew, you really lit a fire under their ass, they had 19 minutes to get an article up from the time you notified them of your displeasure and they used every single one. Pretty good article actually.

man on the moon?

Well if so you’re not the only one: that is literally word for word how i have always interpreted that song since i first heard it some 20 years ago, that “her man” was pretty much an insignificant low life, and she was grovelling to keep him knowing that jolene was not the villain but that the narrator had made a…

Babel-17 and triton also have some cyberpunk touches (mostly just books i love and think should be read). Samuel Delany is an amazing writer.

i always liked “the comment kanye made was damn near right, but bush hate poor people be ‘em black or white.”

as soon as i read “white walker leadership” i was picturing a team building retreat in a conference space at some ramada in the midwest.

Adult sex is a weird performative act where you constantly indulge in repression by big showy acts of negation, “i’m no slave to convention”, “this is naughty”, these are mature and fun ways to have sex, and that is the only type of sex that is fun, being present with your partner and listening to their body without…

We’re only making plans for Nigel Anthony Davis.

Nigel Anthony Davis is happy in his world.

ha, i went with the same picture, didn’t see this one.....

Clearly the simmons you were looking for.....

“Surely a jordanian prince will act more responsibly” is the thought that freaks me out.

Taylor Swift actually reminds me of certain new pornographer moments. And definitely enjoying the irony here since certain friends always mistrusted me listening to a band so overstuffed with pop hooks.

yes. do you know that concussion symptoms often don’t manifest until the day after? do you know that plenty of doctors don’t think the concussion tests administered to athletes are thorough or protective enough? these guys want to go back out there, it is up to the medical staff to be overly cautious and look out for…

his teammate, the lebron, was asked repeatedly to be the slam dunksmith and he balled all of our wishes into a paper towel and threw them away. I support the man who desires to be the three point contest man and is not allowed to, over the man who bears all of us false witness when it comes to dunking truths.

Saw Jamie XX dj a couple weeks ago, really excited for this album, everything i have heard so far has been killer.

I have lived in l.a. most of my life, i sometimes use a brita, but most of the time i just drink straight from the tap, and look at me, still alive.

wasn’t true about ferguson either. http://uproxx.com/smokingsection…

What was the next best option? Looking at the available coaching pool it was pretty grim, as it always is, since there are very few coaches that win in the league and they tend not to go on the market often if at all.
