Every time Deshaun Watson comes up I remember that the media figure who I heard beat the drum loudest in the pre-draft run-up that Watson had impeccable character and was born to lead men was none other than Mike Lombardi

If NFL broadcasters are going to treat Deshaun Watson being ok at QB as a sign that he has been Redeemed For His Past, they must remain ideologically consistent. If he starts playing badly again they have to blame it on his failure to repent for his heinous sexual misconduct

It's hard to properly explain to somebody who doesn't follow baseball just how improbable it felt 2 years ago that the White Sox would win a playoff series in 2026. For my music friends, imagine if out of nowhere the next Yes album was good.

Saw "Primetime" tonight. It's not a great movie, but it’s a good movie with a great performance.

In my final conversation with my mother she told me she had no regrets about treating me like shit when I was younger because she believed that without her acting as she did I would have ended up homeless.

It wasn't the only straw, but it was the final one.

I never heard "Let it Go" until 2020, don't underestimate just how powerful of a bubble I can create for myself

(I have not heard "Choosin' Texas" as of yet)

every song written by a man can be grouped under one of two genres:

1) dying alone at sea
2) blowjobs: good

all songs written by women are murder ballads
