Except those video games aren’t an official production of the United States government.

Don’t mind the wires, I’ve never been happier! :D

While light is trapped in a black hole’s gravity, matter is also trapped in time. It’s a bit the issue with a gravity pit that accelerate stuff to near speed of light. When something with mass get near it, it appears to slow down to a crawl for every external observator (if we could see it, but we can’t since light…

Hawaii is less expensive. Also, they are probably not trying to do an exact simulation. They just want data on how people interact when isolated. Being able to easily extract them if something goes wrong might be one of the reasons they chose Hawaii. There’s no point in doing a safe dry run on earth if it isn’t…

Assuming they only picked the best 7 for the job and if the best 7 were in fact caucasian, I don’t see any issue. You want to make it an issue? That’s racism. This isn’t a Hollywood movie, they don’t have to pick someone just because of their race.

Don’t believe it! The whole thing is being faked in a movie set on the moon...

You’ve had 8 fucking years to mop up.

And how did the Governor of Florida at the time have anything to do with ISIS? Did he support the invasion of Iraq? Well figuring our current SecState did also, he would be responsible also.

Stop calling them ISIS, they are in fact the former Iraqi Army and Fedayeen Saddam paramilitaries. Same folks we had defeated in Iraq before the pullout let them reassemble and counter attack the new Iraq government.

Except, we have. Long term trends for death by warfare, globally, are relentlessly falling and have been since 1945. It may not seem like it sometimes, but we’re doing something right.

It’s called tessellation, and it’s not a dirty word.

BMI is a system used to evaluate health not physical appearance. Overweight on BMI is overweight medically. Suggesting your dietary and lifestyle choices are negatively affecting your health. If you feel physically attractive then that’s fine. But if your BMI indicates a classification of “overweight” it suggests a…

It’s better if you have $250,00 to $500,000 to waste on a helicopter, another $10,000 for the photographic equipment, and to risk the lives of a pilot and a photographer, but sure, those R/C helicopters sure do cost a lot.

I was looking forward to that but Barcroft TV murder the shite out of footage.

No, you’re not the only one noticing the pre-existing wang in those shorts.

I keep asking myself “How are they not laughing out loud when making these claims” when it comes to China’s insistence on claims to these islands.

Or we could break this stupid Puppies vs TruFans nonsense and just write and read what excites and interests us. In the end, if there is a market for paraplegic non-binary Malay fantasy, people will buy it. And if there is a market for monster hunting heterosexual misogynists, people will buy that. Let a thousand…

Another writer pushing her political agenda...? What needs to be changed are authors who think escapist fiction must be a social polemic.

I wholeheartedly disagree with Jemisin’s take on epic fantasy. A majority of epic fantasy novels follow some permutation of the hero monomyth as presented in “The Hero of a Thousand Faces.” The clear conclusion of the hero’s journey is that he or she returns changed by their experience, which is innately progressive.

The Olympics themselves is not a joke. The OIC is.
