Getting strong Bioshock vibes from this announcement. Replace Andrew Ryan with Elon Musk, and the ocean with Mars, and presto! A new game by Ken Levine.

Oh, wow. That’s all kinds of awful. I hope the good singers were let in on the joke after they were kicked off.  Then telling the audience that they were watching terminally ill people having their wish to be a singer granted? Horrible, horrible, horrible.

Religion is a mind and mood-altering practice.

But such an adorable slideshow! And all the slides are of the actual elk!!! By internet slideshow standards, this is high-quality reporting.

Maybe, but it’s hard not to wonder if the teacher was trying to slip a racist joke in.

On a rather trivial aspect of this case - does anybody else find the “alleged” shooter reminds them strongly of a bad-tempered pig?

Carefully taught, before he’s six or seven or eight. He has been carefully taught.

Terrifying to think how many of those medical personnel would insist, outraged, that they weren’t racist - and believe it.

Poor guy. Victim of domestic violence.

An opportunity - for an abortion!!!!

Considering the author is a blonde white woman, I suspect she underestimates the hidden viciousness of closet racists.  After all, smart abusers are very good at gaslighting.

Oligarchy. While the US has a democratic appearance, in reality it is an oligarchy, or “biased plurality”.

Then there’s this article in Mother Jones, pointing out that “Missouri’s proposed anti-abortion law has an eerie resemblance to the Fugitive Slave Act”

If you follow the link  to the Daily mail article, it just seems to be saying that Western Europeans, having experienced peace for over a generation, find a major war this close to them shocking. This article seems like click-bait.

I love your sarcasm

My condolences to the family.

My personal favourite - The teacher at the religious all girls school I attended who told us that the clitoris is very fragile, and if we touched it too much it would break.

That stood out to me, too. If he was the aggressor, why was he shot in the back? 9 times??
