I have family who worked at DE. They definitely care about personal security, and this sort of nonsense was mentioned during employee orientation, but it appears that individual employees have forgotten the guidelines. That, and the once small company has grown so fast and divided into different work units for…

I’m with you. I want to know when I am getting my government and pharmaceutical-sponsored endorsement checks for being pro-science...

This is a massive misunderstanding of the way vaccines function. Vaccines use either an inert or weakened version of the pathogen. It is injected into your system. Your immune system picks up the bits of the mangled or de-fanged pathogen, and learns to recognize it. Vaccines basically train your immune system to…

I find it interesting the number of times you mention that “this female character was created by fans”. You would think the corporation would have caught on by now and offered more female characters with which to expand their fanbase and apparently satisfy their existing fanbase.

Is there a way to tweak gamepad support in? I’ve been playing it with mouse and keyboard, but this is the first time in almost fifteen years, and I have really lost my touch.

Bug identification lab for the University of Florida and then while with the state department of agriculture. It is distressing, because once you realize that showing them the difference between the sample they are presenting and typical arthropod-based skin infestations or eczema is not enough to stop them from…

As an entomologist, we get asked to identify “specimens” as larvae or adults of certain types of insect. They are usually cotton or synthetic fibers (rug, clothing), animal hair (do you have a dog or cat?), or occasionally insects that appear to have been mashed into a supporating wound (cockroach or ant picked up…

As I said, only bullies ever have to retreat to, “it was just a joke”. The Charlie Hebdo folks were rude in a way designed to enrage their targets. Did they deserve to be brutally murdered? Absolutely not! They did deserve to be called out for behaving like jackasses.

You come here because you love the hobby, and there are plenty of us on here who agree with and support your opinions.

You know who always says, “aww, but it was just a joke?”

May be a "whole woman" health center that passes the patient from one specialist to the next in the same practice.

I very much doubt that you are going to get banned, but it is likely that you are going to get a lot of rude responses. In the meantime, I'd like to politely address one of your arguments.

The Troubles in Ireland only drew down in the 90's. That involved two Christian sects, the Catholics and the Protestants repeatedly murdering one another for hundreds of years. They kidnapped and tortured and mutilated one another and bombed school busses and shopping malls full of women and children. It was awful,…

In the spirit of your suggestion, I admire you for both your openness, and your desire to share with other people your respect and admiration for them. Way to go, total stranger! I hope that you have kicked off good things for good people all over the internet today!

Stop it. Now. I mean it!

If they are supposed to be collecting up the bits of Osiris, will this game focus on the notorious missing piece?

Never buy anything on blind faith and the good name of the producer. This might work for a while, but eventually they will abuse your trust.

My family always watches this and "Die Hard" - another Christmas movie!

This is a well-written, if depressing article. Thank you for your efforts to help these folks find some justice. Thank you for illustrating that one of the major problems permitting this kind of blight to fester appears to be ignorance. From your writing, one can see folks who meant well and who probably genuinely do…

Forgive my ignorance of your condition, but what is EDS?
