The thing where people authoritatively and jokingly (?) declare that the thing they think about food is the only correct thing is officially my least favorite writing genre. Good article I guess but whatever...

“Just in front of the half-court line" is ALSO wrong. He's a good 20 feet inside of it.

So apparently Regressing is still a thing...

Clearly!

A fine article about the NFL’s silly catch rules. But the initial conceit, that what we will remember most about Calvin Johnson (“Johnson’s legacy”) is this rule, rather than his highlight catches, is preposterous on every level.

No woman deserves an unsolicited dick pic. ...Unless you’re an innocent sister or mom, in which case fuck yeah? Blowing up the dude by reaching out to the wife/girlfriend, that’s awesome. But sending the dick pic to family members? What the hell did those family members do to deserve that??

For the most part though, isn’t that just movies? I get what you’re saying about the prevalence of movies about slavery. But you lose me when you move to the general point, that you’re tired of seeing black people in movies get beaten down physically or emotionally. If your protagonist/s has/have an easy time of…

Being in the running for the award was the most running Yaya's done all year.

I can't believe you still link to that story where, four games into the season, you argued that it "looks nearly certain that Manchester City will lift the Premier League trophy come May." You should be more embarrassed of that than you are.

I don't think we do...

Minor point of clarification: Under the heading "How the police department has accepted no blame for the mistaken conviction" there are quotes in which Beernsten talks about the Manitowoq city police, as distinct from the County Sheriff. It's the County Sheriff's department that she (and everyone) wants to accept some…

First, you don't have to yourself commit the crime in order to frame someone for it. Second, the theory that Steven Avery is innocent is, at least, debatable. The theory that he was not proven guilty beyond a reasonable doubt is far less so.
