I find it interesting that black authority figures, including Barack Obama, are too afraid to do anything about the targeting and treatment of blacks in America by our police. Our society is a white one, where ignoring or shrugging off these tragedies (the new racism: passive) is the acceptable response, and it's like…

According to what?

Yeah! How dare a woman speak out publically about her rape! How dare a woman speak out about anything ever! What happened to the days of marking women's comments as spam or shamming them until they shut up?

Fun Fact: The Subways in China are exactly the same as in the US, down to the fake cheese and the weirdly-textured bread.

I was just about to ask if someone knew what medical condition she may have suffered from. Thanks!

That poor woman. And that poor child. Actually, those poor children because she was fucking 14 when she was raped.

When I ran the student radio station in college radio DJs would get drunk at parties and follow me around calling me a "cunt" or a "radio Nazi. And a group of them created a parody Twitter account of me where all I did was shop for clothes online. I didn't even know about the twitter account for like a year, after…

Saying you were drugged instead of beaten into submission is a good way to excusing the lack of bruises or cuts, I guess.

Mike Pence (and Mitch Daniels before him) have done their best to make Indiana the most embarrassing state in the Midwest.

I think pro-abortion is a subset of pro-choice. As someone who is pro-choice, I support a woman's decision to get an abortion. I also support a woman's decision not to get an abortion. I support a woman's decision to give up her child for adoption. I support a woman's decision to use contraception or get their tubes…

Texas Right to Life is very put out by the letters, calling them "an antic as weak and laughable as their movement"

What pisses me off is that when Cruz says that satellite data show the Earth is not warming, Meyers just drops it. I get that the point of a late-night talk show it not to start a political debate on global warming, but he only gives Cruz and his supporters leverage when he doesn't change something that's so easy to…

Hey Dr. Nerdlove,

One time I drank one of the last REAL Four Lokos in my college town at a frat party and when a guy was being a drunk asshole to me and tried to get me kicked out of the party for absolutely no reason, on the way home another frat member chased me down the street to apologize. And that when the Four Loko juice let…

Lol alright. Whatever you say.

I understand your original point. And again, my answers aren't any different. Making a copy of something implies it's the same intellectual property in or on a different physical property. If I made a print of a book that I didn't write, that's stealing the intellectual property and not the physical property as long…

I think the second part of your comment is true here, and not the first. But I'm not trying to make a legal argument here either: I'm just asking if no matter the financial costs or losses, is it ethically OK to rip off someone else's music, especially when they then profit from that rip-off?

If I go to Mr Edison's Old Tyme Music Shoppe and pocket one of his wax cylinders and leave without paying, I am stealing.

The idea that "Blurred Lines" somehow caused the Gaye family any financial hardship is absurd on its face—as if purchasing Thicke's song somehow stopped anyone from checking out "Got to Give It Up" as well or instead. In fact, the opposite occurred—the suit brought so much renewed attention to Gaye's song that its sa…

like all batteries—like your fucking iPhone that was basically okay when you got it, but now, maybe 15 months later, drains something like 13 percent reading one article and barely makes it through an evening out even if you charged it at your desk at work—it will decay over time
