Yeah, I’ve been saying for years that the kind of driving that is shown in car commercials actually promotes shitty driving. Not “gapping” on highways, or drag racing, or such - things like “Ooo, I better swerve at full speed around that thing in the city street instead of applying my brakes and slowing down” kind of…

It should be mentioned that Plex sent out these emails within (I belive) 24 hours of noticing the hack. That’s lightning-fast for this kind of thing, and they should be commended for that. Every company either has been or will be hacked, and most of them wait months to notify their users of security breaches. Kudos to…

This is not a “phenomenon” limited to the Star Wars community, or Zack Snyder movies, or any other niche fanbase. Racist people are literally everywhere, and it’s not like racists don’t like the same things non-racists like (except, you know, minorities). We need to stop with this framing of “You know how these Star…

You’re conveniently forgetting about America Chavez, who can travel between universes, and who we see literally empowered to take control of her own powers/life. Not to mention the other-other-other-other Dr. Strange who, as we see in the film, is in fact corrupted by the Darkhold (the one we see with the third eye).…

I dunno, this kid’s obviously a dick, but these ubiquitous platforms banning people because they say naughty things that hurt people’s feelings is just making me feel icky. We shouldn’t celebrate every time someone we don’t like gets ousted from the public square, unless we are the ones doing the ousting, not the…

I’m not giving anyone any credit on anything they say in the media, ever since Hillary Clinton publicly confirmed that it’s every elected official’s job to have a “public” position and a “private” position. Public is for the sound bites for voters to eat up; private is for the actual legislation that gets passed.

maybe if our domestic police forces weren’t so dramatically over-funded and stocked with surplus military equipment and trained to see every civilian as a potential life-ending threat to their own lives this wouldn’t be an issue.

The blame does not lie solely with an out of control police force - that force is funded and controlled by the local council. This revenue is being shared across the board, and not a single person in that board or police department wants to end this gravy train.

There is the possibility of a premature birth. That’s as good a reason as any other to not talk about it.

This looks more like a “skin” for a regular, contemporary racing game - rather than a little car racing sim. I expected to see the cars handle differently than full-size versions, but Re-Volt had better toy car physics than this.

“I don’t like that Godzilla is big and has a hard time moving around; this is offensive to obese people.”

“Why is Voldemort missing a nose? Don’t people understand this is a harmful depiction of a disabled people who lost their noses?”

I don’t know why, but this is the straw that broke the camel’s back for me. The…

The issue is that the in-game model is not a representation of a physical thing that exists (like a photo), it is a digital recreation of copyrighted work in a published piece of entertainment that is being sold for money. Someone at Take Two had to painstakingly recreate all those tattoos, effectively copying them;…

It’s nothing as complicated as that. Protecting “the children” has always been a central theme in the Conservative Handbook for Appearing to Be a Good Person™. Q people just kick that up a metric shit-ton of notches.

The meat of it is that being against the harming of children (very broadly) proves, in an absolute…

The movie was perfect. The game was perfect.

Speaking as a graphic designer who designs logos for a living...those two logos can barely be considered similar. Different typefaces, different case, the “the’s” — while bookended in both versions — are styled differently. Not to mention different industries. This is a non-story for me, and getting a charge from…

They’re not wrong, though. The original religious symbol (which is a completely valid and legitimate thing) is oriented like a square, as shown in the instagram post. The Nazi party co-opted that symbol, then tilted it 45 degrees and made it the Nazi symbol. The company is not gaslighting by stating that this necklace…

Pretty sure the issue here is not the tying of the noose on its own, it’s the placement of the noose in the black guy’s garage. I dunno, this seems pretty obvious, and it would mean that one would have to bend over backwards in order not to see the problem here.

Man, this is really triggering all the centrists around here.

This Shitlib Meltdown™ is *chef’s kiss*.
