You’re a hero bro. Let me pin a gold star to your chest and salute you.

Fun McFunster over here.

Actually before the first article released he took to Reddit to say that they are going to misquote him, as he demanded that the only way he would have an interview is if it was published word for word, no redactions, or citations. Word for word what he wrote. He didnt mention it being a bug, he said the game has many…

I think it’s a mistake to imply that people have any real obligation to superficially shape their work to adhere to idealized contemporary values.

I wish bloggers who write things with the intention to cause drama could just admit they are trying to cause drama for clicks.

Sylvester claims that RimWorld was never intended to simulate real life. It’s a science-fiction game. “My goal is to non-judgmentally simulate, in a simplified way, a flawed group of people in a brutal, backwards environment, tuned for maximum drama. In no way are the characters in RimWorld meant as role models to…

Could it not be more likely that programming all possibilities that can occur in life might be a lot more cumbersome/costly/require more time/etc. than programming the most prevalent occurrences?

It probably won’t, but your diehard Stein support might

But she is clearly skeptical of vaccinations, or at least wants people to think she is. She’s not a clear anti-vaxxer, but she has no problem attracting them by mentioning “legitimate questions” people have regarding vaccines. Either way, it’s a shitty position to take.

This article didn’t say anti-vax. It said vaccine skeptical, which is a pretty fair (if not charitable) description of the position as best as you can make out from her waffling positions. Another, more apt description might be “anti-vaccine panderer.”

No, because as a Sanders supporter, you believe there’s a secret conspiracy headed by the DNC that coerced, blackmailed or possibly even tortured Bernie into endorsing a candidate he once did everything he could to save America from. Bernie’s like a prisoner of war - his words are manipulated by the people with the li…

If you’re a Sanders supporter, and he is a Clinton supporter, shouldn’t you currently be supporting the excutive branch candidate that he thinks will best help him accomplish his legislative branch goals?

Obviously. But an email is infinitely easier to leak than a phone call. Because if someone’s recording your phone calls you already have a massive problem, but an email is stored on multiple locations the second it’s sent and even deleting it doesn’t get rid of it.

This could very well be made up bullshit, but I remember reading a claim that some crusaders did baptize and then kill babies of “infidels”, to ensure that their souls went to heaven.

This is speaking even on just a theological basis. It’s considered idolatry to worship saints because they are ordained by humans. It’s heresy, it’s corrupt, etc etc. I don’t have a dog in the fight, but from my experience, it’s impossible to not ignore some part of your religion when the Bible offers as many rules as…

Long story short, historian Margaret Murray helped to popularize a crackpot theory about how there was an actual ancient pre-Christian cult of witches and that these witches were the specific targets of the many witch trials and executions throughout the early modern period of Western Europe. This ancient witch cult…

To be fair, I wouldn’t want my kids feeling up some stranger’s “energies” on the subway, either.

This is stupid. The court has already said the pipeline can move forward. What is Clinton supposed to do? Take a stand against the court? Ask protesters to violate the law because they don’t like the ruling?

the McDonald’s coffee thing is a pet peeve of mine.....It was a defective product lawsuit

McDonald’s sells hot coffee without sufficient warning leading to unfortunate, but non-life-threatening burns ==> Negligence
