Too late, Batman. Once this Tylenol floods the city's water supply, my wiki won't run out of editors ever again

the mac jonestown massacre

Any food recs for Minneapolis? (I used to live there, but that was in the 90s, and the options seem wildly better now.)

Oklahoma ran a trick play that's been illegal since the 1950s. But time after time, teams get away with it, because it's such a good trick that it tricks the referees too:

Quakes are cooked, eh?

happy Buckingham Nicks re-release day, for all who celebrate

I don’t know anything about clothes (obviously, to anyone who has ever met me), but look at how amazing this movie looks

it's bad out there but I think the release of one battle after another has the potential to fix everything

Things are looking up

it is really important for news outlets to be clear (unlike the nyt here) that Kimmel was suspended not because of some grassroots backlash but because ABC caved to threats from the head of the FCC

i believe i had this

In my worst nightmares this thing is always following me. I look back, wanting it to raise its head so I might glimpse its face, but I don't want this to actually happen, because I know that when it does, the face revealed to me will be more terrifying than anything I can possibly imagine.

In college, a (Swiss!) TA got completely derailed one day and started talking about his beliefs that the Clintons had killed Vince Foster. (We were reading Greek tragedies at the time.)

incredible race to the bottom in MLS ownership

My new shirt design is a very serious PSA that I was asked to make, because apparently a lot of people don't know. roryblank.bigcartel.com

it delights me how much this man loves living in new york city

Seattle-Racing Louisville match abandoned after DeMelo collapse

A strong right wing is absolutely necessary in this conception where a strong left isn’t, because the whole point of the moderate is demonstrate a left wing and its various anti-prosperity hobby horses (govt spending, treat-disrupting unions and regulations) aren’t necessary to the postwar life

korean reporting is nightmarish on the conditions Korean workers were contained in

My life if I hadn’t started following the San Jose Earthquakes in 2010.

for several years I've had an idea to write pitchfork reviews reviews (or, for a more modern reference, sam circle's last week's new yorker reviewed), but for all the newsletters I receive. but I just don't have time to read them all.

This was a good one

the behavior of the WSJ here is shocking; the sort of thing i might imagine from their (berserk) opinion desk but not their (pretty good) news desk www.theverge.com/politics/777...
