i have to note that "robinsons penis hängd ute" is such bad grammar that it's giving me a minor stroke reading it

This was great writing. I’m gonna keep this site in mind.

Defector is fucking great. It's the team that made Deadspin magical, who all revolted when Deadspin got bought by private equity and run into the ground, and banded together to form an employee-owned outlet whose authors are just all great writers.
The editor in chief of Deadspin, who fought the dumb decisions when private equity took over, ended up resigning in a blaze of glory by posting this article on the site as she left.
She also has a great new book out on how private equity breaks things.

Thanks for the heads up. 404 Media is also journalist-owned. They are a four person operation churning out great work.

404 is great, too, for coverage of those topics.
Defector is worth a special mention in large part because it's one of the few places on the internet that still makes me laugh out loud. It's ostensibly a sports site, but when they stray off topic it's some of the best stupid shit on the internet.

It's only a shame that when I click through to explore other articles in instantly hit with the paywall.

As a paid subscriber, it’s worth it. Great stuff is posted every day.

They do love their meatballs, it stands to reason they love swallowing sausage as well
Swedneck@discuss.tchncs.de · 4 pts · 1y
Prince sausage is a traditional thing and this is how we like to serve it

Would be comical if they added this image:
There is no greek word for penisshock

Despite? If my dick and balls fell out, I'd run faster than any human ever straight to the hospital! I need those for peeing and... Having balls!

Nice penis

Wow I thought this was a parody site until the video. I have similar, but easier to contain, issues playing pickleball.
Empricorn@feddit.nl · 5 pts · 1y
Pickleball!? There's an obvious joke about the name somewhere here, but that's just the low-hanging fruit.

Love it

Ah, the dick-and-balls-out stride technique is catching on. Interesting to see how athletes learn from one another and evolve the sport.

Good thing it wasn't a 4x100m relay.
