Although it’s spelled out here in this very article, always important to connect the dots and zero in on the very important fact that Shkreli’s conviction had nothing to do with jacking up the price of life saving drugs, which was a perfectly legal thing to do, and could easily happen again (and to lesser degrees is…

Check out almond flour cakes like Reine de Saba. Definitely not sad.

Avatar is unwatchable. I’ll never forgive him for trashing such a great show. 

Seems like a bit of a racist and stupid comment. Not least “Japanese war crimes were always noted”. By whom, when and as opposed to American and/or British war crimes (which are many)?

That’s really a problem with bulling as a term in general. It can range in so many ways from social ostracism to, well, this truly perverse abuse, to the extent using it as an overarching label kind of becomes an obstruction to dealing with the particulars of the problems involved.

Was his dad a commandant in charge of a POW camp in WWII, and taught him everything he knew?  Jesus fuck.

This guy proudly told the media this horrible behavior when he was in his 20s. He shouldn’t have gotten the gig in the first place.

Yea I read the headline and was like “shit, I was kind of dick to some people in school, is this going to haunt me?” but once I hit the subhead (“disabilities”) and actual details I was both horrified and relieved to learn nothing I ever did was even close to the same league, or even the same sport, of what this dude…

There aren’t enough airport TVs to sustain this service.

Because I am an old, I don’t use Pandora, or Spotify. I’m far far too cheap to pay for ad free service and I’ll be damned if I’mhanding over yet MORE of data to ye ANOTHER conpany so they can suddenly show me MyPillow ads because I listened to Oingo Boingo’s ‘Capitalism’. So if terrestrial radio has nothing and NPR…

Thank heaven that's finally wrapped up.  Like a douche.

I love her.
