Ah, and yet what of the writers who write of the writers who write of Trump rallies? What further insights can an insightful 600 word article on this subject provide?

I think that’s a valid stance to take, and I’d never push for this to become the main narrative, but having an unaccountable body of trigger-happy people with free reign to murder is something we can all be frightened of and troubled by.

I think he has a point - obviously black people have significantly more to fear, but don’t we all have something to fear from an unaccountable body of people who can kill you for simple acts of non-compliance? The us vs. them attitude of police is scary no matter who you are - especially if you’re black or brown, and…

What school lets children wear any hats in class?

You should see the rig this kid set up. He’s a regular engineering wunderkind:

Your “reading between the lines” looks an awful lot like “putting words in his mouth.” I’m not here to defend idiotic David Brooks, but your argument would be stronger if you weren’t so over the top in your commentary on it.

Planet of the Apes - A human wakes up from hibernation late and trouble ensures, but then it turns out he woke up right on time.

My love is split pretty evenly between Fallout 3 and New Vegas, but 4 fell a little flat for me. I’ve been calling it “Fallout 7.5 / 10" because I’m a huge overcritical nerd.

All lives matter, but only black lives are being ended by the government frequently enough to necessitate a group dedicated to reminding us that their lives matter.

Yes. You’re missing a *lot*. An entire PhD level curriculum in engineering, in fact!

What were the names of those 3 curators?

Audiophiles are all nuts. "Listen to how much WARMER this sounds on vinyl," they hum, as they listen to a record recorded last year using 100% digital equipment.

How are "campaign contributions" not bribery again?

Read this on another website and immediately came here hoping io9 would be hating on this as much as I was. Your site does not disappoint.

So wait, we're not encouraging enough of our students to go into the sciences, but the amount of science PhDs is outpacing science jobs?
