  1. I almost respect those cheering it on more than those applying selective ignorance to pretend they had no part in straight up fascism and cruelty. At least they're being honest.
  2. Well, they're not paying him to be LeBron. They're paying him to help out a bench unit for 20 minutes a game.
  3. People keep saying this. Why? Dude's much more corporate and milquetoast than the Colbert Report made him seem. He's not John Oliver, who seems to take pride in daring people to sue him. He'll take his shots, maybe even drop the occasional bleeped out word--as he has been for 10 years to an agreeable audience--but he's not going to do anything to jeopardize the remaining paychecks for his staff. Not that I blame him, but it will continue to largely be the same song and dance in an antiquated format that it always has been. The timing is certainly suspect--and probably not coincidental--but expensive late shows coming to an end is an inevitability.
  4. This. It surrounds morons with an agreeable audience that amps them up. In a world where talking loud, repetitively, and fast means you "won" the argument. Sure, smart people get to sit back and point and laugh about how fucking stupid and crazy these people are. But these idiots--and those like them watching--get power in feeling like they just owned some intellectual, annoying lib. What's the point? Get them one on one and dismantle their whole belief system without other racists to back them up.
  5. Uh huh. Sure, they'll bitch and moan (louder than normal) for a couple months about not getting their military tribunals. Then what, Marge? What are you loonies going to do then? You'll rationalize that it still beats the alternative and keep marching right along.
  6. Gee, sure would have been awesome if young people--who grew up on the internet and should be less gullible to scams and blatant disinformation--realized that they were being played around oh, I don't know, November of last year.
  7. Innocent people who were black bagged and tortured now returning home to tell their stories being completely slid under the rug my mainstream outlets is pretty par for the fucking course.
  8. I don't know, an Oasis concert sounds like the perfect activity to book with a sidepiece who's complaining that all you do is hook up and you never take them in public. >50% chance the concert is cancelled before your date arrives, and you get to say, "Babe, I tried."
  9. Isn't he going to jail soon? Or already has? I thought the pardon didn't cover everything. Like any sane person, I lost any and all interest in him after his dad was no longer President.
  10. Yeah, I've always hated the "if they aren't offended, why are we" argument. I'm quite certain there are plenty of Native Americans you could find who don't mind the mascots and plenty more who don't care enough to formulate a negative opinion. But it's like asking a black person about the lack of representation at the Oscars during Jim Crow. They've got bigger fucking fish to fry. Life in their communities and on the rez doesn't warrant itself to caring much one way or the other what our multi-billion dollar pro sports franchises are wearing on their jerseys these days. Doesn't mean we can't do better--ever so slightly--as a country.
  11. Do they also complain about the refs after seemingly every play? That would reduce the pool of possible posters to about 33% of the site.
  12. Hmm, he doesn't strike me as the type who pays $1000/month on his cable bill to make absolutely certain that he can watch Mississippi State play Missouri on SEC Network+ on the TV in his bathroom at 11AM on a Saturday.
  13. I've always wondered, had BLM decided to cheesily name themselves BLAM, rather than leaving the "Also" implied (rather obviously so for everyone with an IQ above a potato), would the backlash have been as severe? Deep thoughts.
  14. So brave. Much enlightenment.
  15. Comedically speaking, I do appreciate Putin's complete lack of give a fuck when it comes to Russia's perceived image. You'd think American families moving to Russia to escape wokeism would be treated like royalty and propped up to highlight the evils of the West. Nah, get fucked, go be cannon fodder.
  16. Those poor fucking kids, man. And there's a million parents like them stateside so terrified of "woke indoctrination" and "trans [whatever the gripe of the day is]" while they unapologetically warp their kids' minds with their broken ass worldviews.
  17. If I'm the Lakers, I'd take CP3 100 times out of 100 over Smart. Odd. Unless Paul had no interest in being part of the circus.
  18. Except literally everyone who thought that that was a bad look for our country is gone, and we're left with leaders who were probably asking, "What's the big deal? They deserve worse." back then.
  19. Sorry, sir. Maybe if you had changed your name to Chad or Connor, America might have cared about your plight. But we've got a quota of Pedros to meet.
  20. I would absolutely love to be proven wrong. But I won't be.
  21. Y'all are counting on Robert fucking Murdoch to help take down the alt right movement--the he and Rush ushered into existence--in this country whose primary purpose is padding the wallets of billionaire oligarchs. Charlie Brown. Football.
  22. Whose fucking sock is this troglodyte?
  23. Imagine being so fucking broken that you think being more than tangentially involved in more than one bar fight is a brag.
  24. Oh for sure, they shouldn't be releasing names outside of the families. And it's obviously great news...just poorly worded and unclear news.
  25. Wheelhouse.
