When keeping it real goes wrong.

It’s not like prejudice doesn’t exist in Latin America (although Mexican culture, which dominates SoCal Latin culture, generally doesn’t have much thought one way of the other about blacks because it prefers to focus on Spanish-Native dynamics and heritage), that Latin politicians haven’t been caught making racist…

She’s the one who’s also in trouble for saying shit about Armenians and Jews, right?

He’s gotten prominent by being able to piss off just enough people to seem edgy but not so many that it hurts him, it seems with a lot of help. He’s finally said something overt enough to offend too many people and in a way that nobody’s going to publicly defend as edgy in a forum where nobody could cover for him, so…

And frankly, many of the nations which want “their” stuff back can’t really be trusted to care for them properly.

It’s actually very deniable that the slab was a spoil of way, being transferred by the power that had controlled the region for (at least, as the origins of the sultans and nature of sovereignty before that can get fuzzy) 300 years (with varying levels of autonomy) and won the war. The petition is a bit like trying to…

So the statement is all code for them expecting him to say he’s back on his meds and sorry, right?

Jabar knew he hadn’t earned his platform and so worked to deserve it, thereby showing that having a public voice for handling balls well doesn’t necessarily mean that the voice isn’t worth listening to, and now he’s watching Irving and LeBron “Tankie” James take their platform for granted and prove that voice isn’t…

It would be interesting to see if Wyatt Cenac could use the show as a platform to revive Problem Areas, which I remember sounding interesting (but not enough to pay for HBO).

My wife thinks there should never be streaks, that guests will judge, and that it’s unhygienic. I think we should stop inviting weirdos who stare in before sitting and eating out of the toilet.

Correlation =?= causation and all that.

LotR is somewhat interesting in that the people making it have explicitly said it’s based on male homosocial bonding in times of stress and I not only have yet to hear a straight man describe it as gay but always hear it from peopleI know turn around and either complain that men don’t open up or form bonds because of…

One of the more hysterical rumors around fentanyl is that the drug does not respond to naloxone, a medication that can reverse an overdose from opioids. This isn’t so, although the potency of fentanyl may require responders to use more naloxone than they’d need for an overdose of heroin or another opiate.

One of the big fights I have with my wife is her not putting the lid down v. me not brushing out the bowl after I use it.

I don’t know what a “lace top” is, but I do know that a number of prominent NY-area rabbis have “endorsed” them as too realistic for their female congregants.

It’s hard to know exactly without seeing the org chart or access to evidence that can indicate whether there is reason to suspect (but not prove) hard consent issues, but I suspect that the team is coming down hard on him as an example that being important to a franchise or letting the use of power be implied rather…

That seems like something they probably should have been given a heads-up about.

The good news is that it’s hampering abilities that the EPA wasn’t using, as this was based on a challenge to an Obama-era plan to regulate what fuels power plants could use that was shelved pretty quickly that said that such a regulation was a significant-enough policy to need to be passed as a law. While it’s a…

You basically pay gunship diplomacy insurance in case you’re imprisoned for bullshit, to the tune of a couple hundred a year.
