I’ve been walking to 7-11 once every couple days, partly for exercise and partly because of a soda addiction that I control by not keeping it around. Yesterday, a group of 10 people from a local alcohol rehab center decided it would be a good idea to go together to the aforementioned store. They all went in at the…

They’re not creating an out. They’re saying flat-out that not every game will be compatible at launch, and saying that they’re working on the top 100 out of 4000 is basically telling you that it will be years before a majority of PS4 games work on the PS5, assuming they don’t just stop because they need the backward…

While Trump is obviously a racist - and loves it - I suspect that calling it “the Chinese Virus” is his childish response to being told by his advisers that the Chinese government is spreading propaganda that the US is behind the virus. He was probably strongly advised that he can’t dignify the propaganda with an…

Their simultaneous comas can’t arrive soon enough.

Unfortunately, that’s not something that can be done suddenly, especially in states that have stupid voting machines that are specially designed to make voting more complicated and easier to corrupt through hacking.

I wouldn’t be so sanguine about what “men” as a class are confused about. There were too many men telling some of us (including me, a nearly translucent man) to STFU when we pointed out that it probably wasn’t a great idea to hold up Kobe Bryant as a hero when he’d admitted to being a rapist. Seriously, there is…

If you get in a fight with Michelle Yeoh, you're gonna wish she was going for your elbow.

Im a fan of the newer Chicken McGriddles. The peppery breading and sweet bun work together nicely for me.

One of the first bulletin board systems I accessed with my Commodore 64 and 300 baud modem was “The Cop Shop.” This turned out to be run by a police officer who, in the wake of a black suspect being killed by a local police officer with a sleeper hold, sold T-shirts with a picture of a gun that said “Don’t choke em,…

They killed Google Fiber because they half-assed it. They made big promises about quality, got sweetheart deals with municipalities, then did worse than cable companies with their installations... because they weren’t willing to spend the big money to build a business that would last.

It’s as good an explanation as any.

It’s worse for developers/publishers. They’ll not only be abandoned when Google inevitably flushes the service, but they’ll end up taking some of the blame from customers since individual games are purchased separately.

He would have been one of the people arguing that Japanese-American internment camps in WWII weren’t going far enough while studiously ignoring German-American citizens supporting the Third Reich.

There aren’t enough stars for your point about Barry’s stolen TDs. Worse is how many TDs the Lions threw away when they’d take him out in short yardage situations. He was criminally misused and still put up monstrous stats.

In this dawning new age of legal recreational marijuana and the edibles that come with that, it is vital that everyone knows the rules: Know the dose, believe someone who tells you how much to eat at once, and wait 60-90 minutes before going for seconds. Follow the rules and you’re likely to enjoy a quality high. …

I used to feel like the stories in The Wire were at least slightly exaggerated for dramatic effect...

I thought about mentioning research donations but it occurred to me that finding the right place to give money for this specific research, or general viral research, would be tough. Giving money to fund cancer research, HIV/AIDS research, muscular dystrophy research, etc. is comparatively easy. Still, you’re not at…

True. I suspect these people mean that their parents didn’t raise them like that, and that may be true. For better and worse though, we are all raised in large part by our society and white society in the US is racist as fuck.

I don’t think it is quite what you say it is, especially regarding your Iman example. Asking Iman about David Bowie’s sex life from years before she married him wouldn’t make much sense; it would make a lot more sense to ask Angie Bowie about it. Asking Lisa Leslie questions about Kobe Bryant’s legacy shortly after…

What “right thing?” That she’s scared of a virus?
