Hmm let’s see if this author has some keen insight...

I know, it should have been “Revenge of the Outlying Star System Trade Route Tax Auditors.”

Most of the people in Hitler’s inner circle didn’t have much career success after the fall of the Third Reich. With the possible exception of Albert Speer, who published successful memoirs about his Nazi career. Come to think of it, writing tell-all memoirs has been a thing for others who have left the Trump White…

“nonviolent resistance of an officer” — if that’s what the statute actually forbids, that’s almost certainly an overbroad, unconstitutional restraint of free speech.

On the one hand, this is good satire of the stupid “influencer” phenomenon.

No, it’s different from defrauding Petrobras because Petrobras is semi-owned by the public, so bribing a Petrobras agent is like bribing a government agent. Bribing a private person isn’t a crime, it’s a way of doing private business.

All tech bros, VCs, and influencers should try the latest diet: just stop eating, permanently.

If Patagonia can produce evidence that consumers are confused about the source of the AB beer (i.e. consumers think it’s actually made by the Patagonia company), it’s a…

It’s depressing how the brand has been appropriated by tech bros, when it started out as a brand for dirtbag climbers (see logo on Fred Beckey’s shirt):

Even better solution: nuke the entire site from orbit.

The Stark sigil looks like a faithful reproduction, but the others, not so much. :)

Yes. Biden will never be president, both because he has a history of being handsy and because he has a history as a Clinton-style moderate corporate democrat. If he wins the primary, Trump will get reelected.

When the Brits call it “Woostah” sauce, is this an implied abbreviation of “Worcester sauce” instead of “Worcestershire sauce”?

Holy Jupiter, those are some incredibly well-preserved frescoes.  They look like they could have been painted yesterday. 

They change for the worse.  They took the wine off the menu. 

Not sure if it counts as a feature film, but Ray Bradbury’s “All Summer in a Day” (the WonderWorks TV adaptation) is a great example.
