The game is still probably being played by more people around the world than any other mobile game, is still apparently making money from both users and sponsors, and is establishing a template for how to make AR games work both logistically and financially on a scale that no one else has come close to. The idea that…

Cute scare quotes in your headline, but however shocking this might be to you, using bots and third-party software that logs in to your account is *actually* cheating, and has always been considered cheating by Niantic. The only way that tracker maps work is by using the exact same tricks and techniques that…

Those fuzzy “flames” make that guy look like some kind of weird fusion between Ghost Rider and Bozo the Clown.

That’s not the original version of Tom’s Diner, which was a completely a cappella track, but the “reprise” version from her second album. From quotes about the development of the MP3, it sounds like they used the original track rather than the one you have linked.

Shows like this and the the vast array of other psychic and ghost-hunting “reality” programs genuinely make me angry. The people who make them are 100% aware of the fact that they’re fabricated or just plain nonsense, and yet they just keep pumping them out and raising the profile of these scam artists to make a quick…

In the UK and UK-influenced countries the closest equivalent to heavy cream is double cream. Basically as much butterfat content as you can get while still remaining a liquid.

I like how the second “enemy” tweet not only cleaned up the typos, but also threw the other two networks in for good measure. You know Trump only cares about NBC because of SNL and the Apprentice, but his people must have pointed out that the other two networks haven’t been any nicer to him.

This was awesome right up to the frog part, which is an analogy that really just needs to die (like said frog?). Mostly we need to stop using it because it’s completely a myth, and not in any way accurate. It’s been tested over and over . . . the frog always jumps out of the pot.

Actually, they seem to have fixed that bug, at least on my phone. And it was only happening on certain phones anyway, not for everybody.

Thank you for highlighting the bit about how protestors at town halls are “not the Republican people our representatives are representing.” Haven’t seen enough people calling this out yet. I mean, we all know that most politicians don’t really give a shit about anyone who didn’t vote for them, but to come right out…

His ego is just so yuuuuuge, that it gets in the way of his brain actually answering any questions that he’s asked. As just one example, both yesterday and today he was asked about rising rates of anti-semitic incidents around the country. All he has to do is say, “That’s terrible, and I condemn it, but I think it’s a…

Just posted about this same remark. I think he’s talking about the town hall meetings where Republican congressmen are facing massive pushback on Obamacare repeal. He was probably trying to imply that the opposition is from agitators rather than constituents without actually saying it explicitly, but ended up saying…

Did anyone notice this little moment, where he seems to referring to the contentious town hall meetings that some Republican congressmen are facing?

“I mean, they fill up our alleys with people that you wonder how they get there, but they are not the Republican people that our representatives are representing.”

I mean,…

Who is talking about “silencing” anyone? Pointing out that someone’s speech is harmful, either to other people’s psyches or to a particular corporation’s brand equity, is not in any way silencing them. And I’m not personally a big fan of boycotts or outrage bandwagons, and rarely participate in either, but they’re…

“Ironic” racism is still racism, and still hurts people. You don’t get to say “I didn’t mean it,” when you punch someone in the face, and at an ethical level, I don’t see this as any different. Just because something’s not illegal doesn’t mean it’s okay.

>Do I think jewish survivors feel the same way about death to jews jokes? Probably not, but if there was even one person it helped, I think at some level that’s worth it.

My grandfather used to call my grandmother “Mother,” but they were both born in 1910 and passed away well over 30 years ago. Personally I find it creepy as well as old-timey.

I can understand paying to get in, then volunteering to get increased access or perks, or whatever. What I can’t understand is paying a third party for a membership in order to be ALLOWED to enter whatever the convention’s volunteer structure is.

The breathing is weird, but that is definitely not a “F” sound at the beginning of whatever it’s saying. It’s either “Hug me” or “Hold me” or something similar.

You are 100% correct, and people who are calling this “typical progressive complaining” are also clearly way off base. Unfortunately, I don’t think Jezebel was really writing “about the UN,” here, they were just writing “about Wonder Woman,” and without her or some other celebrity involvement, the story probably…
