Eh. This is one issue where I diverge greatly from feminists on, probably due to my ethnicity. As a black man in America, I just can’t be so dismissive of the the existence of false allegations of rape and the impact that they have when they occur. Many an African-American man in the early-mid 20th century ended up…

I hope one of them gets gored by Peter King.

Wow. A lot of you should stop clicking on BvS articles. They have become an echo chamber of hate. It would be interesting, but every single comment is so utterly predictable.

(1) I am, nominally, a Patriots fan.

“It was mostly republished by right-of-center publications like the New York Post and Fox News, with little interest from the liberal media”

And yet, here you are.

Here’s the ridiculous thing: they had the cellphones of the two guys they (the league) were accusing of tampering the balls pursuant to this “scheme”.

I know that Davis is a scientist but I can’t stop thinking that he sounds exactly like this:

“My insight is that the EMDrive is complete crap and a waste of time,” Carroll tells io9. “Right there in the abstract this paper says, ‘Our test campaign can not confirm or refute the claims of the EMDrive’, so I’m not sure what the news is. I’m going to spend my time thinking about ideas that don’t violate…

We’re emphatically not trying to help him. We despise him. But I tried to make this article about Cecil and about trophy hunting, more than about this specific idiot, whose name is already everywhere on the internet.

Come on, man. We’re not protecting him. There’s no meaningful way in which this guy is protected by our leaving his name out of the text of this article—particularly since his name is printed in the Telegraph article we linked to at the top and bottom of the post. We left it out because we didn’t want it in the…

I’m a hunter, and I know I always feel the proudest when I use bait to lure an animal that I have no intention of eating and that has become acclimated to being in the presence of people (which removes any sport in it) nominally outside a protected area for the sole purpose of counteracting the shame of my shockingly…

Hmmm, interesting!

(I am the one who knocks?)

90%? I’d peg it closer to 99%. The only people that wanted the Olympics here were the people that were going to profit off of it somehow.

“it’s totally fiscally responsible, now sign this paper that says you’ll pick up the tab on all the cost over-runs, which is essentially a blank check made out to the IOC....”

Sorry we weren’t interested in being scammed, USOC. Maybe you’ll have better luck stealing money and land from Los Angeles?

These massive block quotes of what he said are completely out of context.

Not that it’s terribly important, but for some cultural context: for middle-class Torontonians, going up north to cottage country is a yearly ritual in summer. If your family doesn’t have a cottage, it’s likely that you’ll know someone who does. For a lot of kids, visiting friends at their cottages represents, for…
