It is genuinely bizarre that we’ve become acclimatized to right wingers throwing a tantrum every time a black person (particularly a black woman) is cast in something, but are also supposed to pretend that this is not racism but related to some other substantive concern.

Anyone else have an outdoor weather station from IQAir/AirVisual? I've been noticing the publicaly reported data from mine is wildly different from the internally reported data (and the internally reported data matches reality). Often it showing >20F lower than reality.
Baseball needs relegation and the A’s should’ve been relegated years ago.
Might have to take up golf again just so I can overhear some Draymond/Lebron chats on the turn.

Lakers are the only team that want Kuminga and don't even have a path to offer him 10M, which is at least twice what he's worth (if you're even willing to take the chance on him). Meanwhile Kuminga wants 25M. That right there is why he's never been close to being a starter let alone a star.
There was literally no better landing spot for JK than Atlanta and he couldn’t make it to the next season there… Anyone with actual ball knowledge watching the Warriors knew this would be the outcome. He’s a chance you take for 2M, not 20-30 or the worse the 60 he thinks he’s worth.

People see headlines like this and assume its due to something like "schools are so bad even smart kids cant read anymore" ... no. kids these days just aren't putting up with BS from Academia anymore. The days of assigning hundreds of pages of dense reading per night as a flex are over.
I just had the unfortunate experience of being forced to install Adobe Acrobat Pro - and like omg. How does software in this era still "require" root? How does installing it take 3GB? And how does downloading 3 GB on 2GB fiber take 35min?!
I called the Knicks for the championship and I still expect them to pull this out. But I also have been loving the Spurs and I’m excited that the Knicks lost in front of Trump and that we will get at least a game 5. I need a game 7.
My main thought so far in this finals: how scary Wemby is going to be once he adds 35lbs and has decent cardio
There’s no greater proof needed that Republicans have no interest in fair elections with a clear paper trail and no fraud than their inability to understand that California is the one state that actually has these things - and that because we have them it takes a while to count and verify the vote.
I swear DoorDash removes the “open now” filter every other week.

Hey Slack ... could you stop deciding anything that gets pasted with a leading tab character is a table? That's be great. K thanks.
People seem to think Wemby threw an elbow intentionally. I don't. I think people are forgetting that he's nearly half a foot taller than even most super-tall bigs. He literally just put his arm out for spacing at below shoulder height, something every player does when driving dozens of times a game.
I haven't had time to research yet who I want to vote for in the primary for CA Governor. I know who the leading candidates are - but little about them. And yet - I can tell you I'm NOT voting for.
In the immortal words of Josh Hart, analytics are like a lamppost to a drunk man. Unfortunately for Harden he’s not only drunk, he’s so high the lamppost looked like a ref so he flopped.
James Harden says he still believes the Cavaliers were the better team despite getting swept by the Knicks. 😳 “It was 4-0… but genuinely I do feel like we’re the better team.” Meanwhile the Knicks are headed to the Eastern Conference Finals. 🗽 #NBA #NBAPlayoffs #Knicks #Cavs #Basketball
Donovan Mitchell signaling for a review after pulling Bridges out of the air by his arm is a strong signal this is over for the Cavs from the start. Like dude - if they review that you get a flagrant.
I always felt Mike Brown was the coach that got away for the Warriors. Have wanted him back to replace Kerr. Excited for his success with the Knicks even if it means the reunion chance is now zero.
The officiating crew tonight for OKC is one of my least favorite because they are always clearly running an agenda: and tonight the agenda seems to be that you can maul anyone on the spurs for free but even mild contact will be called on the other end.
Is this an all time meltdown by the Cavs? To be up 22 with 7min to play to losing by 11? Has there ever been a bigger meltdown? Will Harden ever recover from this?
