My grandfather saw some of this in Bakersfield. A neighborhood meeting was called to find out what was to be done about the black family moving into the neighborhood (early 50s). To his everlasting credit he told the group, “I didn’t go through WW2 to put up with this nonsense.” Unfortunately I don’t recall the…

“Rather than putting pressure on the basketballmen of the Golden State Warriors to travel through crime-infested Washington DC, I will not invite them to The White House. Very Dangerous!!”

This is the worst instance I’ve ever seen of a tennis star not being able to play because they were stabbed in the back.

Joanne Kaufman: Out-of-touch Olde or Millenial?

You’re so correct. There are names from my youth, in the 70's that sparked outrage and yet.. here we are. Housing issues then, of course, and inflation and lack of jobs and low wages and underfunded schools and whites even then were patting themselves on their collective backs because we didn’t have to sit at the back…

Exotic? Its fucking tapioca.

You’d think the Times would have learned their lesson after 1915's “Those Balls of Meat on Your Noodles? They Are Supposed to Be There” and 1950's “That Seasoned Pork, Onions, and Cilantro in Your, I Don’t Know, Folded-Up Cornmeal Pancake? It’s Something Mexicans Eat, And We Guess They Like That Sort of Thing”.  

Yeah. I want to be optimistic, but a part of me thinks, time will pass, trump will be out of office and the following will happen.

Wouldn’t the partner who earns less in a terminated relationship want the breadwinner to make more money and thus be required to provide more child support?

Eh.

Between the LA Riots and Eric Garner there was Sean Bell, Amadou Diallo, Abner Louimer and probably hundreds of others I’ve forgotten or never even heard about. Some time will go by and the victims will go back to being black and the murderers will go back to being someone with a badge and the only difference will…

I still think this would save VW in America. Make them the electric Microbus-Beetle-Golf (and variants)-Atlas company. With some cheap and funky Skodas added to the mix once the VW-ness is re-cemented.

I’ve said it before, I will absolutely buy a camper/Westfalia version.

Do want. Especially after reading that TG article where someone lived in it for a couple days. I haven’t been generally excited by an electric vehicle until now. Tesla’s are nice, don’t get me wrong, but out of my price range. I’ve driven an i3 several times, but despite my best efforts, other than the insta-torque, I…

The one and only time I have looked at a van and said “Yes, I want that.”

I’d point out that a good chunk of people outside of California don’t even realize the “Cal” teams are “Berkeley”. The fact that the school and team are separated by name alone is concerning (not judging either: great school, pretty good sports)

If Volkswagen does actually build something like this, I think the world will be a better place. By pretty much any definition, I think it would be considered a minivan; it’s a van that is small. But it doesn’t look like a minivan; it looks fun and exciting and full of character.

I guess comparitively...

Fairness was measured by what maintained white innocence. The psychic and social health of society was always secondary.

He probably cheated, but why would they want to have this fight in public? I’m baffled by the youths and their need to post their relationship drama on social media.
