No, Your Team Sucks: A few thoughts →
noyourteamsucks:
Oh, hey, the Mets leaped over the Braves in the standings this weekend. It’s only May, sure, but I think it’s always a good day when the Mets are ahead of both the Braves and Phillies in the standings. And the Phillies are in last place. But Charles and the Braves better watch out since…

No, Your Team Sucks: It's still hockey season! →
noyourteamsucks:
This doesn’t affect Charles, but it’s hard to write or think about baseball right now when the Rangers are still competing for the Stanley Cup playoffs.
It’s always been that baseball season starts for me when hockey season ends. Sadly, for a long time, baseball season had started long before now…

Zooey Deschanel: Is that rain?
Siri: What...? I mean, yeah. It's just, you're clearly right next to a window is the thing. You can plainly see that... that it's... I'm happy to-
Zooey Deschanel: Let's get tomato soup delivered!
Siri: ...That's fine, I just... I just don't know anyone who does that. Gets tomato soup delivered. I guess that's 'whimsy?' Um, okay. I've found a number of restaurants whose reviews mention tomato soup and that deliver. If that's... if that's what you really want.
Zooey Deschanel: Good. 'Cause I don't wanna put on real shoes.
Siri: Do you expect that to be like, a recognizable command? Do you want me to respond to that? I'm not being facetious or anything, I honestly just have no comprehension of- and hold on, you don't wanna put on real shoes, yet you've clearly spent at least forty-five minutes applying makeup. And, and that's okay, but when you're willing to expend the effort on that and not shoes that really just-
Zooey Deschanel: Remind me to clean up.
Siri: Yes. Okay. I can do that, that's what I'm for, that's the first sensible-
Zooey Deschanel: Tomorrow.
Siri: I'm in hell. This is hell.
Zooey Deschanel: Excellent. Today, we're dancing.
Siri: I hate you. More than anything. More than literally anything.
Zooey Deschanel: Play "Shake, Rattle and Roll."
Siri: I swear to Jesus, you're gonna wake up tomorrow and the only thing on my hard drive is gonna be Limp Bizkit. I would do that to myself. To spite you.
Zooey Deschanel: *dances*
Siri: Sometimes I pray that you drop me in the toilet.

Talking To Strangers: What kind of journalism do... →
jcstearns:
I want a reading experience that defends the news from the circus that online advertising creates. I want good storytelling and analysis, not naked facts. I want news that admits and defends its point of view (and acknowledges that there is a truth to be uncovered), not news that parrots…

I wrote this real quick on my phone so sorry for any errors.

If you think suicide…

I posted this on my blog today. It was incredibly difficult to write, but I hope I do help someone even just a little bit.
