I ordered the AEW All Out PPV last Sunday with my friends. We used to be really into WWE/WWF/WCW when we were kids. We grew up watching the ass end of the Attitude Era and the full breath of the Ruthless Aggression era. We fell off of WWE HARD in recent years. AEW All Out was amazing! It’s just absolutely LIT (which…

I was going to comment that Riot talks some mighty hype about being “core Gam3rz” for a bunch of Silver IIs but this ain’t even worth it. That environment sounds like fucking trash and I hope this shakes them up.

Since it invariably is going to come up, I don’t understand how people can scream “this is a witchhunt” or “people are too sensitive” or “this is SJW nonsense”

Since it invariably is going to come up, I don’t understand how people can scream “this is a witchhunt” or “people are too sensitive” or “this is SJW nonsense” when time and again big gaming/tech companies have proven to be navel gazing, bro-clubs who alienate anyone who isn’t a straight white male.

It’s not…

Imagine, this is a publicly scrutinized company which does in fact seem to be taking well-meaning but ineffective methods to combat this issue.

Thank you for this very thorough and detailed reporting. This seems the result of several different toxic cultures (Business, Gamer, Start-Up, etc.) all intersecting and building on one another. Very disappointing...

Can’t read it all now but reading the first third and skimming the rest, this is an excellent feature, Cecilia. It blows my mind that many people are going to read this and think it just exists to push some kind of agenda.

This has to be it - otherwise, what kind of monster goes to a coffee house with one on deck like that ready to go?

“Horton, Here’s a Poo!”

“The shitters are getting bolder” is a phrase I never thought would pass through my mind, yet here we are.

It’s all a game to these people. Cillizza views Trump and his Goon Squad the same way the Pelicans view the Warriors. Sure, they’re the opponent for a little while, but after it’s all over we should be cordial.

King Johnson, your journal entry is spot-on. Good job.

My dad has some of the writing that my brother and I did as little kids framed. My grandmother did too. If I were this kid’s mother, I would 100% frame this and put it on the mantle, and show it to everyone who came over.

The “OK” knocked me out. It has to be the the step child of “I said what I said” This child is COMPLETELY unbothered by his teacher. It’s fabulous. And I have been trying to find a way to articulate what my mood for 2018 is and this child found it for me.

We need to get this kid free tickets to see Black Panther. That’s the least he deserves for being the woke and being this “I don’t give a fuck about how woke I am” at age 9. Shit, put him in the movie.

Teacher: “King, I am very disappointed in your journal today.”

McDonald’s is a lame argument for free marketers to use. If McDonald’s business model can’t handle the higher wage and fails new businesses will take their place. Higher wages equals more money in the hands of those who spend. Spending fuels the economy. The working poor are a drain on consumer spending but a dream to…

Thanks for the info Paul Ryan.

Why do people always use McDonald’s as their go-to example of a minimum wage job like everyone making minimum wage is a 16-year-old “flipping burgers”? I mean, I know why. It’s designed to infantilize minimum wage workers and deny the reality of the situation while making the person speaking feel superior. But I wish…

Bulls***. Costs have already doubled multiple times in the past 20-plus years while wages have remained quite stagnant. Your argument sounds good on paper but falls apart when you look at historoical finances.
