Thank you for saying this. The enthusiastic shoring up of the gender binary has always made me very distrustful of discussions on trans issues. Of course as a cis-presenting* white male who the hell cares what I trust or distrust - and what we are seeing is a huge advance in tolerance of things we can’t directly…

Was it? I’m still convinced Her Story is just a novelty. It did not engage me. I should go back.

“GOOD DAY! Offering this for a friend”

...pshaw, we know better than to fall for that scam.

I believe the anecdote about having someone mail you prescription medication, in this case into Japan, is ridiculously illegal. I believe this has been covered recently on Gawker or Jezebel in relation to some automotive executive. She was shipping narcotics, and doing so deceitfully, but the coverage at the time…

So, for Her Story, I’m correct that I just keep playing until my curiosity is sated and then walk away?

I played it for about 45 minutes and have difficulty caring about all the nuances about how the crime happened, as the immediate and obvious differences between the interview sessions led me quickly to “this woman is…

I’ll be damned if I can figure out which one he means. I could have sworn I 100%ed this game....

I was going to post here to complain that the original Starcraft has never been updated to function on Intel Mac OS X. But I double checked and someone somewhere figured out a reasonable looking workaround: http://forums.macrumors.com/threads/how-to…

The tension between the first shotgun blast and the second one pretty much covered the cost of my HBO subscription right there. Which is good, as The Brink looks like its a total dud.

Having eaten a few of these during the annual Canadian offering this year, they are both not bad and by far the best thing to eat at McDonalds. I mean if you are going to eat like you don’t care about yourself or your loved ones, this is the way to do it.

I’ve never really had a good place to say this before so I’m going to say it here: Hitachi magic wands are not just for the ladies. I was totally surprised the first time I used one start to finish, and go back to it often.

I didn’t find her remotely charming, and not the least bit amusing.

But the interview was definitely no big deal. I don’t like to see the justified amusement at the pearl clutching conflated with justfying the Kardashian nonsense (true story: first time I’d heard her voice. The correct strategy for the Kardasians is…

I don’t think our criticisms of dumb ideas that are steeped in fat shaming are helped when we throw in ridiculous claims of risk (torn rotator cuff? really?)

I had to watch the video twice before I realized I wasn’t missing anything, and this story was trying way too hard.

I didn’t notice her say a single thing remotely funny. Did I miss some sort of subtlety? This was the first time I’d ever heard her voice.

I’ve often enjoyed the letter writing portions of the Gawker family of sites, but today was the first day I spent any time with the Kotatku side of the topic.

After reviewing a few there seems to be a pervasive theme of borderline-gloryifying unhealthy and antisocial behaviours. I found it incredibly unsettling.

I just bought an Xcom bundle of things I already have to get the Enemy Within DLC for $10, rather than pay $16 for just the DLC.

I do not think anyone should have their life ruined for smoking some weed. I smoke a lot of weed.

The astonishingly poor set of decisions that go into

VW did this for a while (2007-2011) with the City Golf and City Jetta in Canada, using the previous generations that were still being sold in South American markets and selling them as entry level products in the Great White North.

I real a lot of law blogs, and would describe myself as a moderate law nerd. But the hosts of Undisclosed make it much more boring than it needs to be. They use lawyers rhetoric, and after you listen to a few episodes you’ll never wonder how any case could have closing arguments that take a week of a trials time.

I…

Undisclosed is pretty far from fine. Not only is it boring as hell, the production value it terrible.
