Why?

No, she’s basically Tumblr come to life, in physical form. If it could only monetize itself, it’d take over the world.

I’m convinced that the older I get, the more ankle support becomes an attractive thing in all areas of life.

And the only requirement for fancy shoes and workplace should be if you’re doing Savate professionally. But even the French aren’t insane enough to make you wear heels.

Mother/Earthbound/Mother2 are awesome. Fuck Final Fantasy, this series is the real pinnacle of console RPGs.

That’s my question too! How did he know who turned in the complaint(s)? Sounds like the family should be suing whoever let that slip for contributing to the poor woman’s murder.

How the hell was this nutjob told who made the complain against him? Aren’t these things supposed to be confidential?

Not to mention there’s been a lot of suspicious police reports filled with her as the only witness for a bunch of harassment. And if those allegations are true, that’s way more damaging to the community than fudging one’s back story. It’s already hard enough to get the authorities to take action on racist harassment,…

Don’t waste your time. Racist troll gonna troll.

Racism? In gaming? Never.

Well, considering the poster is a troll... yeah, I think we could have seen that coming.

Tease.

All of this week’s stories are great, but honorable mention to Jake’s manager on that last one, that took some stones and quick thinking. I don’t even care if it’s true or not.

I wonder how comfortable Jerry Seinfeld would be with an evening of good old fashioned Jew-baiting comedy? People complained pretty vociferously when they couldn’t make ethnic jokes anymore too and comedy survived just fine. Topics change, humor changes, somehow the world keeps spinning.

Reddit is dumb but people who believe rumors on the internet are even dumber.

Internet fandoms are the fucking worst.

Nazis did it too. It’s also what Czechs and Slovaks and Poles did to collaborators as well, which gives me some horrible HORRIBLE associations with this.

But it won’t because of the Reddit/Gawker bullshit AND that people steadfastly want to be fooled by rumors.

Depends on the part of Point Breeze. Parts of it border Shadyside/Squirrel Hill, parts of it border Larimer/Wilkinsburg so housing prices had some variation last time I checked. I’ve got family still there and it’s a pretty nice, quiet neighborhood, but it used to be pretty rough in the 90s, I remember. My sister…

Oh, I don’t know. Northwestern PA has its own sort of infuriating bigoted charm. Good lord, if my folks didn’t still live there and it wasn’t so pretty without the people, I’d never go back there.

Lemme guess— Shadyside? Point Breeze?

Even though I now teach in one of the most beautiful cities in the world, I always have a strange nostalgia about the Burgh.
