That’s a real stretch.

Then why do the gears in the gifs interspersed throughout the article turn? Honest question. I think Jim Cooke is a goddamn genius, but I can’t help thinking that the metaphor really doesn’t work with the three gears locked together. It’s a mixed visual metaphor.

Well, the “we MEANT to do it that way!” justification smells like bullshit to me. This piece is about the metaphorical machinery of a faux-empowerment cult that hurts women, it’s not about the machinery of a faux-empowerment cult that doesn’t function. And the fact that the animated gears in the article itself are…

Except that the woman in the middle is in no danger of being crushed if the gears aren’t turning?

These gears wouldn’t turn, though.

Schilling is headed to Barstool where he can continue to pander to suburban Massachusetts racists.

I agree this gay went too far, and is a ridiculous asshole... but camera lenses feel “male gazey” and “rapey”? To a woman who has done “scandalous” photoshoots for many magazines and being on camera is literally her livelihood? No thanks, for the rape pseudo-comparison.

Haha, nope.

Lol what a fucking cock

“There’s no evidence any hacking took place. Unauthorized use of an account is not, on its own, hacking.”

This is the most pedantic bullshit I've seen in a long time.

Its cool. You’re wrong. It happens to us all.

That’s pretty damn pedantic, Timothy.

Come on now, for years now hacked has included exactly that, unauthorized access to an account. Not Angela Jolie cracking your password from Bern. The distinction is meaningless.

Unauthorized access to an account is the very definition of hacking.

I think unauthorized use of a system is still hacking of sorts.

Can we also get a 10k word exposee on why the fuck Gawker published that David Geithner story?

“TL;DR”

Yes, the emergency manager was a Democrat, the Democrat city council voted 7-1 in favor of switching from Detroit water.
