  • The fuck after you talking about? His knowledge of mma has nothing to do with how well he can compete against other people at his age.

    Your comment comes across as idiotic. Because it effectively says coaches arent worth the job they do because they are almost always people who couldnt or can no longer compete.

    Such a dumb take. Theres plenty of reasons not to listen to Joe, stop making bad arguments to justify your opinions. Especially when your opinion isnt flawed —> He respects it, and that’s great to see, but IMO he’s an example of the alpha male attitude that plagues combat sports.







  • Leaving aside his poetry and his collaborative works, here are some other examples of racism in Lovecraft stories.

    “The Rats in the Walls” features a cat named “N----- Man”

    “The Horror at Red Hook” refers to a villain as “an Arab with a hatefully negroid mouth”

    The Case of Charles Dexter Ward: “the wife [had] a very repulsive cast of countenance, probably due to a mixture of negro blood.”

    Herbert West: Reanimator contains a particularly problematic bit of description:

    The negro had been knocked out, and a moment’s examination shewed us that he would permanently remain so. He was a loathsome, gorilla-like thing, with abnormally long arms which I could not help calling fore legs, and a face that conjured up thoughts of unspeakable Congo secrets and tom-tom poundings under an eerie moon. The body must have looked even worse in life—but the world holds many ugly things.

    Edit: this is entirely copy pasta


  • Kamala should spend term one fighting this and getting it sorted. Term 2 should be okay im going to maximize the use of this(but like NOT in the evil way, just USE it in a way it shouldnt be available to used) like send people to gitmo or something… openly.

    I dont really know how what to do with it, but if they wont come to reason, stop being reasonable. She seems smart and capable enough to do it.

    I wouldnt trust Hilary as president with this, but Kamala seems like a person who could use this to show just how bad this can be abused, but do good with it
