I remember when io9 was a site that was capable of writing articles like this with nuance and maturity rather than knee jerk pearl clutching. Whilst this might well be considered a topic worthy of discussion, if you’re starting from a point of dictating where and when an individual of minority descent gets to use a…

Eh....I think this is only an issue because oversensitive liberal white folk who can’t use those words don’t understand using words like that to make jokes about yourself or just saying the words in general without censoring ourselves because we can. Remember all the clutched pearls over the president saying ‘nigger’?…

Without suggesting that Newton is complaining without merit, he has certainly taken is fair share of hits, but a big difference if you are looking at just the raw numbers is the number of pass attempts.

“Orci most recently produced Star Trek Beyond, a film he was scheduled to write and direct but eventually did not.”

I actually have no problem with that hit. If a QB is going to try and slide to stay protected, they need to initiate the slide before they get to the defender. If you’re still on your feet when the defender gets there, you are fair game to get blasted. It’s like QBs getting pissed when they get hit just before they…

When Tom Brady started his career, hits like this to the QB were the norm.

What’s the sport coming to when a man can’t feel safe playing football?

No. It WAS a dramatic transformation. Half the mountain blew off in the eruption.

The before and after is always kind of cool to see:

Does anyone else think it’s really depressing that the team is going through all this embarrassment to defray less than half the cost of Alex Avila’s salary?

...it seems weird that a mortgage company’s logo is an upside-down house

Damn right. First year of law school; and I cannot stress this statement enough, we’re all told that paying as little tax a small possible is the goal of the tax law and the true execution of individual rights.

Yeah. I got Daulerioed. :(

Not to mention Daulerio’s collection of early to mid 90s Garbage Pail Kids cards and his trove of Japanese ultraviolent sexy schoolgirl comix—uh...if he tries to hand you any of those to “thumb through” I suggest you not actually touch them. Kinda sticky.

Sure, thats why the FBI reopened a case, because they wanted to reaffirm how legally she acted. Did she have servers and personal devices destroyed because she was afraid they would be too legal? Come on Clinton, Trump, both reprehensible, take off the blinders.

Is it like destroying evidence and being investigated by the FBI twice. Wanna take the 5th? You’ll fit right in!

So, again, he used a tax strategy that is (was) legal. To pay less taxes.

I don’t like the idea of doing it, but if I bought a copy, I’d just print out copies of all the cards and maps and what not that you are supposed to destroy, then I wouldn’t feel bad about committing violence on those, since the originals are still intact.

LOL? Why? It is gimmicky. There’s no need for any of this permanent stuff. Anything written could be erasable, cards could simply go into a standard discard pile, etc... It’s pretty much the definition of gimmick.

This seems pointlessly gimmicky.
