It’s this, to a fair extent. He’s the guy you know who got promoted to a manager/executive position, is grossly unqualified for it, and everyone in the office knows it. Except here, that lack of skill is on prominent display for the entire country. He couldn’t keep in character on SNL, his acting career was a joke,…

Battlecries don’t fire unless the card is played from the hand.

So, I have this friend with a mouth that could make a sailor blush. His repeated swearing has landed him in hot water at work before. It wasn’t a big thing at first, because you can excuse the occasional bad word, but he didn’t stop. He got warned, got written up, and even got sent home a few times, but still swears…

Funny thing - in a job that isn’t Internet-based, you are also held accountable by your employer for creating a hostile work environment.

For years, Blizzard has been trying to put the “war” back in Warcraft. During an interview at Blizzcon last weekend, game director Ion Hazzikostas told Kotaku he thinks he’s finally figured out how to make it happen.

Give it a try. I was wary of watching it because of McFarlane’s presence as well , but he’s honestly not bad here. Yeah, there’s some smug, but not to painful degrees. This show seems like an honest labor of love for him, and it shows in the acting.

Some cosplayers have nailed the Rider uniform pretty well.

Well, the DeviantArt creations from this partnership will be fucking horrifying.

Why though? Plenty of people use the word fag as an insult. Are all of these people secretly homophobes?

Hold up, how is just dropping an n-bomb racist? He didn’t call a black dude an n-word, so how is just saying it inherently racist? That’s ridiculous. For context, I’m half black, and I personally can’t see why there’s so much outrage over this. Sure, it’s probably not the best word for him to use to express his…

Send them an email, they’ve got a decent PR team. They might spring for replacements.

I’m not saying that Trump’s ego would never let him admit having his hand broken in a handshake with someone else.

You left out the part where, in the real world, we don’t REWARD most of those misogynists and racists with publicity, status, and money. Maybe we wouldn’t keep running into situations where we’re given the choice of rooting for the lesser of two assholes if we stopped paying for the privilege of seeing them.

I didn’t see any homophobic slurs quoted. Were they in the video that was taken down?

I disagree, some of the specific people they were referencing may have faded, but a lot of the archetypes are never far from the current landscape.

MLK and Gandhi are held up as representatives of non-violent resistance, to the point where we decry violence as a solution to anything. But their movements were successful, in no small part, because the non-violence was the alternative to MASSIVE violence. Part of Gandhi’s motivation in keeping his protests…

Josh Lyman: ...you’re listening to me, but you’re not understanding me.

There is a direct benefit to the defense. The longer a trial takes, the more likely it becomes that evidence gets misplaced, or that witnesses become unavailable or lose full recollection of the events. In a less high-profile case, it’d give the defense more time to undermine key pieces of evidence - finding that…

You know what? The blame for this rests on a lot of shoulders, but liberal millenials aren’t part of the problem. They were BOTH awful candidates - YES, that means Hillary. She was a hawkish, corrupt, HUGELY entitled establishment politician, and that’s ignoring all the crap the far right tacked on her. I don’t…

Length of the sentence aside, allowing alternative jail sentences isn’t necessarily a bad thing. Convictions are a pretty heavy stigma to finding employment, and lack of employment can easily lead to reoffending.
