Do I Have The COVID Virus?

Deadspin Is Back, At Least In Name
When last we spoke of Deadspin, dumb ass ownership was doing its level best to fuck the whole thing up. And shortly after I posted that, it succeeded. The entire editorial staff quit, and the site went silent for nearly four months. But as of a few days ago, it is no longer silent. It’s […]
Try To Donate Blood If You Can
Posting this because even though it feels like it’s all Coronavirus all the time, there are still people going through other, non-COVID-19 medical things who could really use your help if you’re able.
