You did not “know” Joe Rogan was “a piece of shit” before his podcast started. You are lying.

I’m not much of a fan actually. When someone can’t formulate a rebuttal from reason, they do what you just did.

Will you still watch Richard Linklater’s “Dazed and Confused”? (Jones is prominent is Linklater’s “Slacker”)

Because context matters.

Absolutely none of the people bitching about Joe Rogan have ever listened to a single episode of his podcast. (Except you, I know, I know...)

I think it’s based on an obvious, pragmatic sort of racism. You can easily identify someone as black, asian etc. Irish, Jews, Italians et al. have a better chance at blending into the crowd.

If you are making any sort of sociopolitical public statement nowadays, you better be certain that it can stand up to recursive, redundant micro-analysis from every possible angle. This is what they mean when they talk about a “chilling effect” on free speech.

Articles like this make everything worse. Goldberg’s convoluted faux pas went unnoticed by virtually everyone outside of those who make their living generating click bait. They don’t care about inflaming people as long as they make their daily quota.

I have not seen any evidence that Joe Rogan is a people killing dude. (Also: Godwin’s law)

Aren’t you quite the nasty little person?

It was a decorative metal ring circling her nipple and it was either clamped or glued on. Definitely a bigger problem than chafing.

Yes. Thanks, you beat me to it. This is pretty typical of contemporary AV Club takes. Every article has some irrelevant, woke aside, or contrarian hot take.

Can we start one of those comment section arguments about this “liquid cooling” jazz? Is it really valid? I have no idea but it always seemed kind of unnecessary and almost always accompanies silly LED lighting displays that I know are functionally useless.

I like Joe Rogan’s podcast but even before that whole thing, I never got all the hate on Spotify. It’s probably the only subscription service I can’t live without. The complaints about paltry payouts to musicians could be applied to any streaming service. The thing no one seems to grasp is streaming pays out more than…

He’s not providing the push back, but it’s in plain view that plenty of others are.

He’s not wrong. Rogan has a target on his back because of his popularity. But if you really want free speech, you have to take the good with the bad. And if Rogan and Spotify want to give access to the good, the bad and the ugly, they are going to have to deal with the financial consequences. I listen to Rogan and…

I’m sure “Gender Queer” is a fine tome but it’s not like you need to double down on examples of banned books. It seems more like somebody feels like plugging a book they liked better than "Maus".

My cord aesthetic is just the opposite. I integrate my electric and data cords into my decorating. I buy plastic clips to attach cords and cables to the wall and twist and turn them around furniture, shelving and artwork.

OK, now I get it. The Vanderbilts and the Astors!

I don’t get it.
