The paradox of civilization is that the more one is anxious to survive, the less survival is worth the trouble.

Anyone else wonder why it’s cheaper to buy cocaine than a large serving of Mary Brown’s “Chicken Poppins”?

The Dallas Mavericks reportedly had an issue with Luka Dončić smoking hookah and drinking beer, per @TheAthletic “Make no mistake, the people who witnessed Dončić’s last days in Dallas do not paint a flattering portrait of the 25-year-old’s professionalism. They call him lazy. They talk about the weight issues that were such a frequent frustration within their walls. They mention the social habits that The Athletic has reported on — such as a taste for beer and hookah — which have been a point of concern for NBA types since he was a 19-year-old star for Real Madrid who was entering the NBA Draft. They predict his basketball demise, highlighting a health history that, as some see it, will likely lead to catastrophe in the next five years or so.” (Via nyti.ms/41uhU3Y)

Not understanding why Parker Posey’s performance is so divisive. I literally burst out laughing every time she’s on screen. And it wouldn’t be a season of The White Lotus without an over-the-top comedic performance from a veteran character actress. I have no choice but to stan

I’ve watched you from afar and never said anything for two main reasons. 1 being the respect I have for your brothers and parents & 2 I’ve always wanted to keep the in fighting between folks of color to a minimum. This was something I couldn’t let go - I’ve known you since I was ten years old and played with you so I’d say I know you better than most at a deeper level. You were a hell of a player and instead of using your platform you did everything in your power to gain acceptance and popularity, nothing with you has ever been genuine but transactional and usually for publicity reasons. Even during this most sensitive time both politically and socially you take the side of the oppressor because that’s who you make your money from. I would of thought the “love” you have always claimed for your country, a country you represented at the highest levels would shine through to push back on rhetoric of annexation and humiliation of the very land you are born and raised in, but even that doesn’t get you to do the right morally. This is the reason why every place you have played - no one liked you and players on the inside have always known who you really are - a sell out of the highest proportions. You are the perfect example of why people of color haven’t progressed at the highest levels of society. From one man to another, you’re a disgrace and history will judge you accordingly.

Joe Rogan: "In Canada... their ability to express themselves on the internet has been severely limited." "Because people like that f**khead Justin [Trudeau]... he's leading that country on a road to legitimate communism." "It's very dangerous, and I think most Canadians are fed up with it."
