Will Gawker’s new owner bring back the Deadspin Commenter of the Year award?

You guys hiring?

How many of you guys are able to make a full living off of writing?

I mostly miss io9 being it’s own site and not just a part of Gizmodo. I really hated that decision.

What do you suggest the DNC do? Did you want them to remove him from convention without any sort of legal process? Even though doing so would rob the people who elected him as delegate their rightful voice at the party convention? How can a democracy function properly when people’s votes are dismissed simply because…

What the fuck are you doin Phil

Doesn’t look like he’s struggling at the plate.

RIP The Fat Baseball Man

“What absolutely sucks is that there are going to be people who say that the movie failed because it starred four women”

I think it’s fair to say that a major problem that hobbled the film was the four women they chose. I understand they weren’t trying to re-create the four ghost busters characters from the original film but the characters they introduced didn’t have the chemistry that the originals had. More careful casting would have…

Thats the real issue. It was literally just “lets just remake the original but with swapped genders!” Thats it. Nothing else, use the same characters, warm over the old plot in the microwave.

Been hearing this more and more lately. And I totally agree. Deadpool really did it right. Lower the stakes, focus on a few characters and tell a good story.

The trailers weren’t funny, and the reviews were middling. The most positive things said was “it wasn’t that bad” and “McKinnon was great” Rotten Tomatoes states about 57% of the audience liked it. It felt like many sites were trying to prop the movie up as much as possible, with little substance behind their…

Sorry, but the movie just wasn’t that good. I really wish it had been better and it should have been better given all the talent on-hand. It just wasn’t. And I they must have made a shit ton of money on the merchandising or animated versions to them to push so hard to keep franchising this because it doesn’t make…

Can’t say I’m surprised or disappointed. Wasn’t the worst thing ever, but ranked around the Total Recall reboot for me, and the little one couldn’t get into it either, sadly. I still can’t believe they set such a high bar to reach in order for the thing to be considered profitable.

It bothers gizmodo apparently.We’d still be using horses and carriages if it were for this line of thinking. Forget the alternative! I used to read up Gizmodo for the latest tech news, it’s sad how far it’s gone now.

Lol ok bud. You keep raging over nothing because your precious pot was tangentially insulted.

THC itself is not poisonous but can cause damage when eaten vs. inhaled. When you inhale it bypasses the portal vein system and liver and enters the brain. The problem is that the liver metabolizes the active ingredient into many different substances that can cause issues and is hard on the liver. It is also highly…

I disagree and I’m a pro-marijuana advocate. Sure, edibles won’t kill you, but they can FUCK YOU UP. Especially when you consider that a) the dosage suggestions for most edibles is quite small, like 1/4 - 1 candy for any one individual. b) kids tend to eat a lot of candy when it’s available to them. c) it’s unlikely…

At no point did the author label marijuana poisonous. Go find some other small insignificant detail to be upset about. “This person is experiencing [x] poisoning” =/= “[x] is a poisonous substance.”
