Serena had a good tournament, but watching her in several matches in Wimbledon, it seems like she’s not moving as much or as quickly as she used to. I completely understand why, with her complicated pregnancy and getting older in general, but I wonder if she might be going the way of Federer, where she is still…

There is a big difference between a 13-year old having sex with a 13-year old and a 23-year old having sex with a 13-year old, which is why one is illegal and the other one is not. Specifically, the difference in emotional maturity and understanding how sex and relationships work lead to those relationships being…

I can give you plenty of examples where violence is approved and beneficial in some way, from anything from the military and police, boxing/MMA/wrestling, football, hunting, or self-defense (unarmed or armed).

Can you give me any examples of sexual acts committed by an adult to a child are approved or beneficial? 

I gave an example of 13, which is how old a normal girl in middle school is (the character in the article is in middle school).

You can see how old someone is in ways other than chest size, and to argue that’s what I’m doing is completely disingenuous.

There’s a line between having silly/stupid sexual dialogue and making a middle-schooler be presented as someone that you can do sexual acts with.

I’m not going to complain about Playboy showing tits. I would complain if Playboy showed models that looked clearly underage, which they don’t because showing pictures of a…

The problem is that people who actually do pedophilia start with lesser offenses and gradually work their way up. So a pedophile would likely have watched child porn or done indecent exposure or solicited sex from a minor before their first offense of sexual assault against a child.

So it’s not a case of “either they…

I think Trump has been decent at following through with his promises: we got a trade war, tax cuts, young Republican Supreme Court justices, and a travel ban on Muslims (excuse me, on people from selected countries that happen to be all majority-Muslim). He was missing the wall, and considering this shutdown became a…

That quote is a great summary of why many Blizzard fans were wary of the Acti-Blizz merger back when it was first announced.

Also, from personal experience, “do more with less” results in a cycle of people producing less, management coming under pressure for the lack of results, the work atmosphere turning more…

I agree with pretty much everything you said. I’ll repeat the depression thing because that’s exactly how it sounds like to me; she feels guilty and blames herself for the husband being unhappy. She needs to feel like she does good things for him, instead of him confirming her self-hating thoughts by agreeing with…

For the first poster, regardless of what you want to do personally or sexually, don’t forget that (at the moment), you are all that your wife has. She doubtless realizes what she can’t do, she is alone with a mental illness (or multiple), without a support network, and she is going through major life changes. People…

If you cover up the weird humanoid body it looks kind of ok!

This is a great article. I’ve had depression, social anxiety, and a few other mental issues for most of my adult life, but at the end of the day, I realize that this is my life and I need to do the things that make my life what I want it to be.

There is a scene in Ratatouille where the critic says that “the bitter…

This is exactly what the game is doing right now. 

(In the game) Ancient Rome has zero woman generals. As does ancient Carthage, ancient Persia, and most of the Greek successor states. Women generals are possible in the barbarian cultures, which was uncommon but not implausible. Boudicca is the most famous one but woman warchiefs, fighters, and tribal leaders did…

Geralt needs a strong actor because it’s harder to act subtly emotional characters than it is to act overtly emotional ones. It’s also hard to exhibit gravitas on screen, which is like displaying that you’re in control. A good example of that would be Charles Dance as Tywin Lannister in Game of Thrones: that is hard…

“How is it Riot’s fault if a self-professed introvert gets talked over in a meeting? By definition, introverts probably get talked over everywhere they go. “

It’s not Riot’s fault, but it’s Riot’s loss if only the loudest people get their ideas heard. It’s also clearly not a meritocracy, unless you equate value to a…

Wow, there are so many people being so negative about this. Someone’s being positive and enthusiastic about experiencing something new and exciting; let them enjoy it! You gain nothing from tearing someone else down.

Scotland in a major tournament? Don’t be silly.

It’s coming home, btw.

Brazil were the #1 ranked team in ELO and the favorites on most betting sites, but sure, they were at Switzerland’s level since they drew with them. I imagine you would consider Germany to be below South Korea’s quality by the same reasoning?

Fact is, CONMEBOL qualifying is harder than almost any European qualifying…

While I don’t agree with ArenaNet firing anyone because of an internet vigilante mob, you’re not mentioning some of the arguments Price made a couple of hours later by further tweeting, “lemme make something clear: this is my feed. I’m not on the clock here. I’m not your emotional courtesan just because I’m a dev.…
