The actual creator often does suffer from poor sales though, in the form of 1) an entire dev team getting laid off because their game sold poorly even if it was the fault of marketing or budgeting; 2) a sequel to the game becoming a near-impossibility, and the IP that the creators invented thereby becoming worthless…

oh shit

TBF the article pretty explicitly defends him. It only embeds quotes from people who support him, includes his explanation for the gesture, and ends with:

This is amazing.

A master of the third eye will feel the pain of a heart attack in advance and realize what’s happening; the sedative just makes his future cloudy.

I actually know someone who met him twice while he was on the campaign trail in 2007... and yep, he remembered (unprompted).

Lane’s was way more sick, though.

I mean if you lived in an almost entirely Latin community, it makes sense that that would be a striking feature... People with (naturally) blond hair in China often get surprised curious reactions from Han Chinese people. Seems like the same deal here.

Very uncanny valley — if you cover the hand joint, it genuinely looks like a screenshot, but his proportions are a little off.

His heart rate jumped 10 bpm immediately when it happened, so it’s not outside the realm of possibility

The critical review linked in the article is clearly by a native Chinese speaker though?

Good point. Statutory rape laws can still be bypassed by marriage though, as some states allow people to marry below the age of consent.

The Force Awakens’ U.S. audience was about 58% men, 42% women. Still majority men, but two things worth noting:

Yes. To clarify, when I said that “having sex with a minor is, regardless of marital status, statutory rape”, I meant that it’s statutory rape from an ethical perspective, not a legal one.

I think the OP’s point was that many U.S. states have failed to address the fact that having sex with a minor is, regardless of marital status, statutory rape. The situation for child brides is de facto far worse in India than the U.S., as you point out — but this ruling legally addresses a crime that U.S. lawmakers…

He was fired from Facebook, so he’s not getting a direct salary from their revenue anymore. It’s not impossible that he still holds investments that indirectly earn him money, but since Oculus is now property of Facebook, he’d also be indirectly making money off of people clicking on FB ads. What’s more, he’s now…

A Democrat can be conservative. Remember that the word conservative originally meant “opposed to change” rather than “conserving government funding.” If a Democrat is willing to pay for the legal defense of a violent officer, they’re protecting the law enforcement status quo, and are therefore conservative on that…
