There’s gotta be something really disheartening about being an end-of-bench veteran whose coach insists that 39 minutes of Iman Shumpert putting five points and seven rebounds on the board is a better option than even giving you a chance. Which is almost certainly the case here.

This is a video a video game player made of himself playing a video game someone else made.

It’s not free. They paid a premium to put their ads on the track because they knew their ads would be photographed by people covering the race.

The perverse, pathological need to capture/document/preserve life’s high points is the end-run result of a society bathing in toxic narcissism. Thousands of spectators watching momentous, beautiful, kinetic competition among masterfully bred and developed creatures and the only thing any of them are interested in is…

Early anti-Zionist Haredi worried that Jewish nationalism would replace faith and religious observance, and they maintain that the modern…

A friendly reminder that this is all in service of putting one of the premiere international sporting events in a dictatorial rentier state on a desert peninsula smaller than Connecticut with a population comparable to Greater Sacramento.

Qatar is the per-capita richest country in the world. The average Qatari makes about twice as much per year as the average American.

We’re also still SEVEN YEARS OUT from this World Cup even happening. And the Qatari government wants more “guest workers” to come in because they’re not meeting construction deadlines for a project that, again, is due SEVEN YEARS FROM NOW.
