How #StickToSports Became the New #LearnToCode — Deadspin Is Dead
“There was a time, about ten years ago, when I could write like Grantland Rice. Not necessarily because I believed all that sporty bullshit, but because sportswriting was the only thing I could do that anybody was willing to pay for. And none of the people I wrote about seemed to give a hoot […]
BREAKING: O’Rourke Drops Out
The avowed gun-grabber has run out of money: Former Representative Beto O’Rourke of Texas is dropping out of the presidential race, ending a campaign in which he struggled for months to recapture the energy of his insurgent 2018 Senate candidacy on a national stage full of other big personalities and liberal champions.

Jabba the Hut Gets Hired by Seattle Schools to Humiliate White Racist Kids
Say hello to Tracy Castro-Gill: In October, Seattle public schools unveiled a “framework” to inject “math ethnic studies” into all K-12 math classes, teaching “how math has been and continues to be used to oppress and marginalize people and communities of color.” Students will be asked to “identify the inherent inequities of the standardized […]
