Why are TV writers even trying to negotiate for a new contract? Anyone can do their job, look:
A show where Spiderman um is in the, uh, NFL with, uhhhh Jason Statham and like some SNL guys are there and every week they do the cowbell thing with Minions (real, no CGI).

I will be speaking at the Berkeley City Club on December 7. Critics are already raving, hailing the event as “scheduled” and “on a Wednesday.” Get tickets here:
Me to my therapist: “Living in modern society means being subjected to an unrelenting deluge of news and the human brain isn't even remotely conditioned to handle it.”
The news:
I have been using Cameo as a Twitter replacement. Whenever I feel like musing about sports, weather, or politics, I simply pay Alfonso Ribeiro $250 and he reads my post out loud in his car.
Do jakiego zagrania w koszykówce porównuje misję międzyplanetarną inżynier lotniczy? Który koszykarz nadawałby się na właściciela winnicy? Co na temat flopowania ma do powiedzenia ekspert od oper mydlanych?

better, but i’m mourning him today. it’s clear he was a wonderful friend + husband + father, and this is one the best pieces the ringer’s ever published, though it’s very hard to revisit today
I can’t overstate how fantastic 60 SONGS THAT EXPLAIN THE '90s is. My simple request is for Rob to further tweak the concept and record an episode for every single song ever written.
e75 of 60 SONGS THAT EXPLAIN THE '90S concerns the cranberries' "ZOMBIE," the steely and immaculate harmonies of dolores o'riordan, and the perils of calling women "badasses" https://theringer.com/2022/8/17/23309016/zombie-cranberries-podcast…
Finished a book. Now I know hoops... Shot clocks are like traffic lights and TV ads. The triangle offense is a Rube Goldberg Machine. NBA Wingspans are queen size mattresses. Free throws are the same. I wish Rodman had a 50 rebound game.
The majority on the court is not content to simply make these decisions, they expect to treated with a royal deference by the public whose rights they are annihilating, and also for the press to lie about what is happening at their behest
It's just become impossible to pretend that America is a place where people are being protected. we put our heads in the sand and refuse to offer basic human dignities while corporations exploit us and people with guns can massacre us in the streets.
I'm so fucking pissed. If you have a minute, please read what we're doing to help our team, and consider doing the same (message me for details/if you'd like to join).
We are outraged by today's Supreme Court ruling. Taking away reproductive rights creates less equitable access to healthcare and has major economic impact-we are committed to supporting our team with our reproductive rights policy & hope others do the same https://bit.ly/3bfnG1C
. Awesome deep dive into hoops philosophy with very unique perspectives on each aspect of the game from people inside and outside of the sport. Really fun and easy read if you love basketball. Highly recommend.

Alito's draft opinion explicitly criticizes Lawrence v. Texas (legalizing sodomy) and Obergefell v. Hodges (legalizing same-sex marriage). He says that, like abortion, these decisions protect phony rights that are not "deeply rooted in history." https://politico.com/f/?id=00000180-874f-dd36-a38c-c74f98520000…
