I just noticed this too. How long has it been there?
Looks like it is a Univision property, so they probably rolled it into the former Gawker sites.

I browsed around a little, and most of those posts have no comments and almost as few views. Either this is a brand-new blog with a bunch of back-dated posts (the oldest one allegedly 9 years old), or it’s a very lonely Kinja that got promoted to FP status.

Politics? Hopefully they’ll grant authorship to writers from the other main blogs, so that they won’t have to keep spamming Gizmodo with so many off-topic posts.

That’s the problem with Incubus though: if you want to go back and listen to their good stuff, you never pull out Morning View, or Make Yourself, or ACLOTM. You pull out SCIENCE, and if you’re really intoxicated, Fungus Amongus. The stuff that made them big-time has really not withstood the test of time.

Possibly, but it seems the site is geared towards black people so I doubt all the off topic posts will disappear from Gizmodo, I could be wrong though. Jalopnik is really the only site I visit in the kinja universe, so I’m not up to date as to what the other blogs are doing.

The Root’s sub-blog structure looks promising. I don’t know if those sub-blogs will be required to adhere to black themes, but it could really help organize the FP Kinjaverse. *fingers crossed*

Well, most Jalopnik sub-blogs are car themed, so I assume so, only time will tell though. They do need organization so it’s possible that they use the sub-blogs like you’re hoping.

When I was in high school, I had a few friends — and teachers — who preached, obnoxiously I thought, about how modern music sucks. And that Pink Floyd, Beatles, Stones, whatever... “they were the ones that broke the rules, man!” I was always like, “Yeah, whatever, shitty old people music. I don’t have time to listen to an 8-minutes track by Led Zepplin! Crank up that Papa Roach!”
Now I’m pushing 30 and listening to all those bands.

The Root is a Univision-owned news site about black culture and politics. They’ve been around since 2008 but got all their posts migrated to Kinja today, as will other sites in our company eventually. Please welcome them.
