Wow! Way to show your whole ass. What’s next, you’ve read Althusser????
The Mariners are perhaps the Most American team. Amazing potential and power tempered by the unmatched ability to tempt fate. Good things are only possible once in a generation, the result of chance, random happenstance, and statistical inevitability. I love this team.

Look at what my dude is cooking up. The thread is full of glimpses into it and its scope, and it’s sure to be a steal for the price tag.

It looks like it was made by the creators of Miracle Whip or store brand seltzers.
Talking during movies isn’t just rude, it’s the mark of a deranged sicko and a nation in decline. Disruptive theatergoers should be sent to live on an island with the people who yell at bands like they’re best friends and the people who refuse to use headphones in public.

always love these anecdotes where Pynchon’s New Yorker roots come through……
Holy shit, this sounds amazing. Congrats!
I saw two guys in clown costumes struggling to fit all their stuff and themselves into a tiny old Volkswagen Beetle. Don’t listen to the media: We’re constantly defying stereotypes over here in Portland.

More importantly, it was highly irresponsible of the @nytimes.com to publish this article (which I know they’ve been working on for months) right now. It sends a message to an unaware public that the socialists in City Hall are somehow responsible for current national attacks on Portland.
Matte and newsprint are superior
Anyone have a particularly hot comic take?
I dunno, obedience isn’t really better than blind obedience so this is just an endless inward and outward fart session.
