Ziff-Davis looks like it wants Jezebel and Gizmodo (and why not LifeHacker, Deadspin, etc.) but has no real interest in keeping Gawker itself. I think that would be a smart move. (Also, giving IO9 its independence from Gizmodo again would be great.)

My motivation was to report more information on a subject that many people care about.

I was watching a program about reuniting lost families in Britain and Ireland today. There was one guy who was caught stealing a loaf of bread and was sentenced to 8 years in a work camp, at the age of 8. The reason he was robbing was because he was starving after growing up without a mother or family. His mother was…

And what’s the common denominator between Pakistan, Saudi Arabia, Afghanistan and other regions in the Muslim world?

Have you read the Quran? There’s no way you could have read it and thought it was not misogynistic.

First of all, my criticism of Islam is not criticism of all Muslims. Why? Because religious people (of all religions) cherry-pick what they like about their respective religion and ignore the unsavoury stuff that they don’t like, like for example the fact that Muhammad raped a young girl. Cognitive dissonance and…

We burn children to death in the West? We send gay kids to ex-gay camps because Christians are fucked in the head but they burn them alive too? Or when an evangelical 17 year old announces to her family she’s an atheist, her family takes her out back and sets her on fire? I had no idea! Thanks for the info!

White culture = toxic

Colonialism - accomplished by Islam in the 7th century (seriously, read about the spread of Islam).

Oh, that’s where this woman was, in a safe space with members of her culture.

A safe space in which women are burned alive by their families. Hahahaha...

Oh, so you’re a segregationist. A segregationist who calls others "racist.” Interesting.

Hahahaha, no.

A culture in which a mother burns her own daughter alive should’t be criticized? Fuck off with that moral relativism bullshit...

Why does pointing out one religion's shittiness prevent the same from happening to another religion? Both are shitty, and fuck you or anyone else who wants to hide behind accusations of ”racism” as a means to give one of them a pass.

How can anyone do that to their own child? You spend all those years loving and raising her, and then boom, set her on fire? How?!

Cobb County’s non-namesake, Ty, would be proud of the last sentence.

I don’t see the one that allows for “private” listening with audience audio. Great for when you have a spouse that needs to wear a headset for a louder experience than what is comfortable.

With the headphones plugged in, press up up, dn dn, up up up, dn dn dn and audience audio is also enabled.

Cisco/Harry banter is absolutely the greatest part of this show.
