No. Creating a dating website where the people are nice and nobody sends you a picture of their dick is the Holy Grail of software design.

It also would surely have made a difference in the Brown case. It's one thing to look at the Garner case and come up with some bullshit about he was resisting arrest. It's another thing to have first-person video of shooting somebody with their hands up and try to come up with a narrative to excuse that.

Oh, please. The Hollywood Walk of Fame is a toilet for drunks. If you'd left it alone over the weekend, the urine would have washed the graffiti off by Monday without costing you a dime. Plus, tourists write their own names on those stars all the time. Making a statement about this is going way out of your way to show…

There is so much hostility toward drinking juice for the same reason there is so much hostility toward vegans (I am vegan): too many goddamned food police ruining it for the perfectly sane, respectable people. People who drink juice tend to tell you all about how they drink juice and how you should drink juice instead…

I'm impressed. I don't think I could go a month, and I don't even like sweets that much. Although I'm tempted to try. I did eat an entire apple pie in three days this Thanksgiving weekend.

Yup. Second-degree murder. Depraved indifference to human life.

Aw. Barely relevant, but I went to high school with the Education Connection girl and she's super nice and super embarrassed about that commercial that she only did so she could continue to eat food.

Anybody who thinks getting and keeping welfare is not hard work has never tried. My relatively decent-paying job is at least ten times easier than what I saw my friend go through when she tried to get back on her feet after a bad run.

I hang out with the women, who talk about books and family and travel, and not with the men, who talk about football and various flavors of conservative politics.

You beat me to it :)

I hope it was really some kind of secret government immortality treatment and the heart surgery was just a cover story.

"but they're not directly involved in this tragedy"

It's like trying not to shop at the old company stores.

Selma comes out soon. The timing couldn't be better. Hopefully that will inspire some people on top of what's already happening.

The "Rules of the Earth" are better than Christianity, yes. Being better than one of the worst religions on Earth is not really a high bar. The CoS, with its embracing of vengeance and rejection of compassion for the "undeserving," rubs me the wrong way.

I did not know that.

Pretty sure Florida's more the "fuck the world, Ayn Rand is awesome" Church of Satan type.

1) It was not a statue of Baphomet. The statue is male; Baphomet is an androgyne.

AFAIK it's the only game you can buy on Steam that cannot be run as distributed. You have to apply an unofficial patch for the game to work at all.

It's astonishing that given the incredible amount of devotion to a game that is, frankly, not even that good (and I say that as someone who freaking loves the game), nobody is willing to capitalize on the throngs of people screaming "SHUT UP AND TAKE MY MONEY!!"
