I watched that video, and was confused. He shows these shots of a quite large city, among other places (e.g. a water park) and yet there are so few people out and about. Where are all the people? It is just so offsetting.

While everything he saw and had exposure to was most likely orchestrated (which he acknowledges) it is still a way to gain insight into a country and culture that few will ever get to experience. Every country objectively does something bad, is there a level or threshold that every human is beholden to? Should…

The problem with this argument is that literally nobody thinks the people of North Korea are somehow “bad.” This isn’t some cultural misunderstanding, nobody’s sitting there going “Gee, man, I don’t know about those 5 year-old North Korean dirt farmers. They seem pretty sketchy.”

Seriously. “These kids.” Lochte is 32 fucking years old. Yes, he’s an idiot, but he’s a grown-ass idiot.

Holy shit. IOC spokesman is really angling for a new job as Sports Information Director for an SEC school.

They just need to track down the can driver. Lochte said her name was Lennay Kukua.

I tweeted this question and the most common answers seemed to be logical ones like luge and vault and horse sports and ski jump. But shoutout to the creative answers, like the guy who said he’d accidentally windsurf off in to the middle of the ocean.

Papelbon’s gonna be in so much trouble when Trump’s “Speak English” program kicks in.

I am on the same page as you. It not having an open relationship or arrangement, or whatever that is bothersome. It’s the fact that Bill Clinton has allegedly assaulted multiple women in the process, and Hillary Clinton seems to be ok with it.

A lot of people on Jezebel love to criticize me for not being an avid Hillary supporter. I will vote for her because she isn't Trump, that doesn't mean she was my first choice. But the reason I don't trust her is that she always seemed willing to let other women's lives be destroyed by her husband so she could advance…

You can get hyper analytical, but it seems pretty clear that Bill has mistreated women for a long time and Hillary has done her best to be part of the machine that keeps him clean enough (and in the process rolling over those women) that they can accomplish their political goals in spite of his behavior.

This so much. She’s getting so much scrutiny for not submitting her deposition. The descriptions I’ve read of her crying and being in hysterics read as someone who had a severe moment of panic when faced with speaking about their trauma. Many victims of abuse, domestic or otherwise, can break down when telling their…

I couldn’t care less if she leaked it. Who gives a shit?! His behaviour, on the other hand, is really scary.

Yes, the most important thing is whether she leaked the video, not the pattern of behavior the video displays. I wish I was a famous, rich, and attractive (to many) man, imagine what I could get away with!!

Depp behaves like an 8 year old. We like to think that emotional maturity grows in proportion to career development or life experience, but things don’t work like that, unfortunately.

Well, but honestly, so what?

I don’t get it. Touching hands is a lot less physical contact than getting your ass handed to you.

Many people are saying Donald Trump funds NAMBLA. Smart people, the best people, are saying Donald Trump funds NAMBLA. I myself do not know if Donald Trump funds NAMBLA, but I would very much like for there to be research into Donald Trump funding NAMBLA, if indeed Donald Trump funds NAMBLA.

That’s a bit extreme but I’ll be okay with a law that bans Vegans from condescendingly telling me why they think they’re better than me.
