You don’t understand how determined some men would be to sabotage that event.

You can’t beat the satisfying feel of Destiny’s gameplay

OK, but when do we get the next Dragon Age?

That’s fine, because I’ve been skipping Assassin’s Creed for a while.

Another day, another oh look Kinja doesn’t employ copy editors.

Not all forms of discourse on the Internet were born broken. Maybe you have to have been an Internet user in the early 1990s (like myself) or even earlier to remember how much force “netiquette” held upon users once upon a time. It’s not the Internet that warps discourse. It never was. It was the mid-’90s influx of…

They’re never going to face the consequences. If and when we ever get out of this mess, the new goverment will be all Obama-style “We have to look forward, not backward.” And this shit will keep going on until it manages to take over the whole show again. Same as it ever was. Same as it ever was.

Speaking as a white person who rebukes racists, I can tell you, this doesn’t work very well. It doesn’t make them learn. It causes them to retreat into their own circles for emotional and ideological reinforcement, and to write off those of us who rebuke them as “SJWs”—a category for which they have just as much…

Did you just equate Anita Sarkeesian with Donald Trump?

You could at least aspire to a 50/50 split and settle for a 60/40 split in which the 40 no longer have reason to complain that the 60 are making their lives miserable and impeding their careers. Sounds like Riot isn’t even making a sincere effort to get that far.

Nardelli, formerly of General Electric Nardelli? No wonder. Explains everything.

Please explain how bigotry, sexual harassment, unstable hours, employee persecution and outright theft are necessary and desirable parts of running a business.

“The market” only works as advertised when participants have perfect knowledge of options, when they have the freedom to enter and exit the market at will, when the participants are numerous, and when the goods or services offered are of comparable quality. For job seekers, the job market sometimes meets the last two…

When it comes to the Russian mafia, I don’t think people worry about jail. I think people worry about poison.

Maybe not kompromat, but definitely leverage. Russian oligarchs launder their money through Trump’s properties. If Trump steps out of line, they can ruin him like Thanos.

The U.S. Chess Federation does something like this. In chess lingo, it’s called “setting a rating floor.” For instance, one you hit class A (rating 1800–1999), your rating can never again fall below 1600, the lowest class B rating.

No. Ban them for life.

If you throw a game in a chess tournament, not only will you almost certainly get ejected from the tournament on the spot, you’re likely to be barred from future tournaments as well. The U.S. Chess Federation does not fuck around with sandbaggers.

Democrats need to run on people’s wallets—but they also need to run on people’s feelings. People feel angry: run on justice. People feel disrespected: run on dignity and equality. People feel anxious: run on caring. People feel outraged: run on decency.
