Alright, so the idea is you’d have anyone who wanted to start a business apply to the government for a loan. What about all the controls you’d inevitably get instituted by successive governments trying to establish their preferred ideologies? If that doesn’t sound so bad, think of the Senate Finance Committee being in

Honest questions here, I promise I’m not jerking your chain. How does entrepreneurship work in this system, how do you get NEW businesses? And you want the federal government to run Activision Blizzard and Ben & Jerry's?

I think as technology continues to advance, with super high def cameras that shoot a billion frames a second, there’s just no putting the genie back in the bottle. Back in the day before there were 50 cameras in every stadium and the resolution was shitty, you’d have fans gripe that they got hosed by a call, but at

Anyone who wants to come in hot with the highlight truthering, please pause, take a deep breath, maybe go take a walk, skip some stones down at the river or whatever, and then just shut the hell up. We know. It’s still an Important Moment, and my friends and I use “Leeroy Jenkins” as a verb because of it.

Why do I already miss Tim Marchman despite finding the second and a half long pause followed by his indignant shout of “NO!” in response to an obvious “yes” question (Is the sky blue? Are puppies good?) to be the most irritating thing on my favorite podcast?

This is so stupid, and I just did a beverage-less spit take. Take your fucking star and get outta here.

Lost it at "[the poops]." I should probably grow the fuck up a little bit.

I don’t want to like J.J. Redick. Never forget:

It was 10,000% Amir Johnson. You don’t even need the video to know that.

Same reason why baseball and football players usually aren’t wearing a cup. They are really, really awful to run around with, you’d rub your groin painfully raw if you tried.

The fact that this doesn't have more stars is an indictment of the Deadspin/GMG Network readership.

Hi. Straight white guy who lives in Omar’s district here. I voted for her. As long as she keeps doing what she’s doing and doesn’t turn into a dumb, I’ll vote for her again. Howsabout you ease up with the proclamations on whether or not she’ll be re-elected? I mean this with all due respect: you don’t know what you’re

My God, those Eagles fans are unique barbarian maniacs. No one else is like that, THAT IS FOR DAMN SURE.

I think the Mahers of the world who whine that #MeToo is all a huge overreaction are overreacting. Like, the line I hear about Biden is that “the out of control accusatory moment of #MeToo has lumped Biden in with Harvey Weinstein!”

Well, I'll be damned.

Also, TIL the word “auroch.”

Bless you.

Legit questions: 1. are there any NPC enemy types other than skeletons and the megalodon? 2. is there any reason to give a shit about loot other than access to cosmetic tweaks?

Why the McConnell hate? Does he have bad takes I don’t know about or something? I kinda like him, he’s good for a couple dribble drives under the basket and then whirl around for a midrange jumper per game. There was a moment last year when McConnell managed to hit a buzzer-beater game winner, and Embiid looked like
