That’s why I’m here, I’m on team trainwreck. I just hope after this is over, they both crawl down a hole somewhere and I never have to hear of them again.

You do know its comically easy for kids under 18 to get any sexual content they like, right? You can’t even argue that she markets directly towards under 18s so calling her a pedo means you’d have to call any man or woman that creates sexual content a pedo simply because kids can access it easily thanks to the internet…

it seems like we’re a short walk away from WhatsApp messages being deleted for daring to insult the integrity of the Metaverse or sending an SMS about how much T-Mobile sucks leading to a service ban or whatever.

The left: gets a little too snippy about the way people use words, especially those related to identity

We really just need to eat the billionaires to make the world markedly better. We don’t even have to eat Larry David.

Ehhh, there’s an argument to be made that as communication platforms grow in size and power, they start having the power to substantially influence public discourse, the exact kind of thing First Amendment-style free speech protections are intended to protect. The debate of course is over exactly how big they have to…

If it were made public, then you truly couldn’t regulate hate speech or covid misinformation. Now when twitter bans them, it’s a private company making a decision based on its terms of service and not - despite what right-wingers and weirdos like Musk say - a free speech violation. But if the government ran it, it…

Dear Silicon Valley Techbros: an algorithm can never replace artistic vision.

“And how do YOU like those very same apples, Eggers?!”

So, in other words he’s about to launch a catastrophic invasion of a neighbouring sovereign nation?

I get why people take the mental shortcut to thinking you have to be an academy member to be nominated to the academy awards, but do they really think Bong Joon-ho faxed over an application and $80 application fee to win Best Picture a few years ago?

Fine, Sam Raimi’s Just This League.

Nothing to add but that I though this was the knives out sequel.

“That said, my personal preference would be for the Garfield version of Peter”

I realized immediately what you meant, but for a split-second I initially pictured Spider-Man hating Mondays and gorging himself on a lasagna.

I read an interesting article on LOTR the other day (sorry can’t remember the source), that talked about how the male protagonists in the series were great examples of positive masculinity. Aragorn is shown as caring and displays emotions freely. Close friendships and love are represented among the men as normal and…

So you’re saying OP is a lazy idiot?  Works for me.

Wait till the scabs learn about Saving Private Ryan!!!!!

It’s a game about an insurrection in Washington DC that takes place during a viral pandemic; figure that’s already pretty close to home for most of us, yeah?

YEEEES! I have high engaged friends and low engaged friends. The low engaged friends are happy to just walk and chat, but trading with them can be really slow.
