Just finished The Witcher and am waiting for Red Dead, so I’m back to Skyrim. Also, Rainbow Six. Read more

I’m pretty on-the-record here as proudly being this site’s Cici’s caucus. Papa John’s benefitted greatly in that experiment for being served early, meaning the slices were at least lukewarm and not room temperature or...worse. Papa makes a fine trash pizza—better than Pizza Hut and Lil Caesar’s; worse than an actually Read more

I take issue with multiple missteps he’s already made, as I laid out in the piece; I’m not saying cast him out, just raise your standards. Also, intimating that these farmworkers shouldn’t sue him just because he’s not as bad as the NCGOP and you don’t want him to incur some bad press is a weak fucking take. Read more

Perhaps you need to raise your bar for what constitutes a bright spot. Read more

I’m not asserting family farms don’t exist at all, and I never used the term “corporate farms.” I’m saying that small-scale family farms have been phased out in favor of large-scale farms, be they family-owned or corporately-owned, especially in the tobacco industry, where my grandfather and father worked until the Read more

In the House, where Republicans voted in favor of the bill 71-1, Democrats followed suit, voting in favor of SB 615 27-17; they put up a more resistance in the Senate, where they voted against it 11-1.

Oh no, force me to spend $6 and be treated to unlimited shitty, delicious mac & cheese pizza. Fuck you, fuck all of you. Cici’s rules. Read more

You are right that it wasn’t untenable, but that’s talking like a reasonable person—Matta wasn’t a bad recruiter by college basketball’s standards; he was a bad recruiter by his own standards. This is all going by ESPN ranks, so I’m sure the 24/7 rankings will differ, but Ohio State finished with the legendary Read more

I’ve got a wrap-up/breakdown post for tomorrow, but I’ll go ahead and tell you that even with the broken poll, the forced Zip-lovers only managed to get Akron to No. 32. Read more

I’ve been on a mezcal kick this summer, so I grab a mezcal mule from my local mezcal bar. Read more

Get a tray: Big Double burger with fries and either a ranch chicken wrap or a corn dog (a corn dog is a motherfuckin’ side!!) and your choice of milkshake. All for under $7. Good god I might move back myself... Read more

Logan Lucky is essentially a better Ocean’s 11 but with godawful Southern accents. Read more

It’s a trash city, but it’s our trash city. Read more

I don’t know where you live, but Cook-Out or starve. Read more

I added a second “should’ve” to drive it home, but I’m saying Penn State should have challenged Michigan and failed to do so, not that the game wasn’t as bad as the score lets on. It was a bloodbath. Read more
