You realize the (I believe sole) source for “Israel bombed a hospital and killed 500 people” is a Hamas official, right?

Point of order. Are you still repeating the demonstrable lie that “an Israeli airstrike” struck “a hospital” and “killed 500 people”? Because that’s a lie from Hamas that’s been debunked countless times. Here’s an article from the Telegraph a couple weeks ago, about how the BBC ignored warnings not to “parrot Hamas…

I really appreciate that one of Youtube’s recommendations after watching that Ryan Blaney wreck was Taylor Swift’s “Shake it Off.”

I mean, yeah, that’s fair. I guess what bothers me about him, though, is that he seems to exist as a sort of ingenue: blank and youthful and innocent.

I really wish people would stop calling it “AI.” It’s not AI, and it’s not intelligent at all; calling it that plays along with the hype that it’s part of some amazing sci-fi future, like they were doing with “blockchain” a couple years ago. Call it by its proper name—“machine learning”—and people will understand…

To be honest, I think the only reason Thimothee Chalamet gets roles is because he’s a beautiful twink. Like, he’s not that great an actor—as far as I can tell, he conveys intensity by just gritting his teeth—but keeps getting these incredibly prestigious roles. I never understood it.

You guys, the show is so bad. I’m not even going to bother getting into the discourse about how faithful an adaptation this is, because that’s been covered already in longer comments.

I think GM has given up on IO9 entirely. The site barely puts out an article a day. 

OK, because I’m dumb, does “in their DMs” have some other meaning than “direct-message”? 

This simply equates to the renewed attack on reproductive rights—an attack that will continue to hit Black women and women of color the most.

RCP is a GOP poll shop. Their polls are garbage. Every reliable poll of the last few months has had Warnock up four or five points.

Fun (?) Fact: You remember that scene in American Beauty where Beautiful Weirdo Camera Guy films the girl, and she sees him, and takes her top off? She was underage at the time. That sort of thing is entirely legal if the parent/guardian is present.

pregnancy FAQ from the Kansas SoS, probably:

Counterpoint: no. When neo-Nazis go underground, that just lets them escape culpability for all the harm they caused. If he wants redemption, he can loudly and publicly denounce the movement he once led. He can fight, like a number of ex-neo-Nazis have, to destroy the organizations he previously supported. He isn’t…

As per XKCD, the minimum age you can date before it’s weird is half your own age plus seven. So Qualley is old enough by two years. 

Nina Turner, like Jill Stein, is a useful idiot for the Russians. To wit:

Exactly this. Anybody who thinks the current SCOTUS isn’t just dying to find a way to kill Roe while also pushing a maximalist view of firearm proliferation, regardless of whether the underlying rationales contradict one another, is a naive fool.

To his credit (as one might expect of a smart politician with a gift for rhetoric), Pete Booty-Judge has gotten the answer to this question right:

Good job taking the bait (as did Rep. Ocasio-Cortez, to my dismay) and believing that Republicans are “ignorant” about pregnancy or rape, when in fact they’re just liars.

You can’t talk about Disney’s weird futurist/fascist utopia at EPCOT without mentioning actual Disney-run Reedy Creek Improvement District. Between that and the town of“Celebration,” Disney runs an independent fiefdom almost entirely without government oversight or regulation.
