“Bangladeshis are a people squalid enough that death is an acceptable randomly applied career path, and … dead Bangladeshis are what keep flat-front chinos at $29.99 at the outlet store. Our pants are cheap because their lives are, and cheaper things are innately good.”

Rafael Nadal had to return to tennis some time (hallelujah!), but why Chile? Reeves Wiedeman on Rafa’s rationale: http://nyr.kr/XrbvMe

Like an opera singer coming back from vocal-chord surgery at a performance with the local community symphony, he’s hoping to make sure everything’s in working order before he takes on a tougher crowd.
