Why be a journalist when you can be a blogger instead? So much less pressure, and when you get something wrong you can fall back on blaming the source you’re regurgitating.

Shhhh..... journalism is taboo here.

If you dig too deep, you’ll scare them and they’ll just toss up Youtube video after Youtube video until everyone’s forgotten and its safe to come back out.

higher octane gas—usually 95 or 98 octane—is already common across Europe, but in the U.S. we’ve been sticking with trash gas—87, 91, or 93 octane

How many times must we cover that you can’t compare MON+RON numbers to those computed in Yur-rope? The goal in the U.S. is to standardize to a single octane number of ~91 MON+RON because it is the optimal compromise between allowing for better operational efficiency while minimizing the added cost to produce it (which…

That’ll be great for all the older cars still on the road requiring 87 octane.

This young man was obviously resisting arrest and pushed the cop , which is felony assault . Michael Brown had just assaulted a store owner in a theft . And was charging an officer . Yes I know Brown claimed he had traded weed for the cigars with an employee. That is still theft . The owner was defending his property…

Well, I can kind of see it from the other side. Sexual assault is common in jail. So I’m guessing prohibiting inmates from touching one another is an effort, in the officials eyes, to reduce claims that someone was touched without their consent. Also inmates allowing contact between inmates would definitely increase…

Despite what this writer would like us to think, this regulation does a good job of balancing the interests of natal women and trans women. It’s not saying that biological sex is the ONLY criteria, it’s saying that it’s the initial determinant. It goes on to say that having determined by sex, the authorities must then…

Half Priced Bargain Time!

You fled the US when you found out you would be sentenced for the sexual assault of a minor. Don’t you dare bitch about the law, you unrepentant rapist.

That was actually pretty calm and reasonable for Alec Baldwin. Low bar, I know. But still not very different from what a lot of commenters here were saying here when the story broke.

Epidemiologist here. California’s Proposition 65 regulations drive this ruling, which require products containing reproductive toxicants or carcinogens to carry a warning. What’s maddening about Proposition 65 is that the regulations are largely hazard-based, and not risk-based. Which means, if a handful of shitty…

This new ruling makes me so angry. Acrylamide occurs in foods that are fried, roasted or baked. If a people wants to avoid these foods, then okay, they can enjoy their sad, flavorless lives, but placing labels like this on coffee shows no understanding of risk. Consumers will no longer have an appropriate…

It’s super frustrating when you’re trying desperately to get on a point, and you see a Mcree or something standing right above it, just plugging away. Gotta take one for the team, bruh.

That was the first “downsized” model — more a heavy cruiser than a full battleship. More malaise than the master of all it surveyed.

Physical abuse in a relationship is horrifying no matter what the sex of the partner is. I say this as a victim of physical (and quite a lot of psychological) abuse that was heaped on me by a past female partner.

This is what the Germans wanted, and this is what the Germans got. If it didn’t have a three pointed star on it, it was absolutely going to be crap, come hell or high water. Daimler worked pretty damn hard to make sure that reality eventually matched their long-held perceptions. There was zero effort, and I mean zero,…

“or did she use the inherently more black English intonation, “you f*cked up””... what??? Was unaware that profanity was classified as being “black English”. Shame on you!

This is a garbage article and you should be ashamed.

Could you imagine if this was a white Steward or Stewardess interacting with a black passenger? The riots and demonstrations would shut down airports across the country.
