For the idiots on other threads: if this thing takes Biden down as well, hey, cool! People caught doing shady and/or illegal shit get what they get.

So the next time this dude claims sincerity, we’re just supposed to buy it wholesale, right?

Real courage of your convictions there, Pewds.

I was right. I hate to see this kind of thing pop up more and more, and especially with a publisher that I’ve supported strongly in the past (Seriously. We all have Nicalis games on our systems, I’m sure.)

It was a great read and definitely the investigative journalism that gaming needs more of, but I do agree that you should probably read the article prior to making that statement lol.

“The former vice president added that he makes “no apologies” for his previous support of the law.”

I’m learning there is always going to be someone like you in the comments.

I don’t imagine you get to make much of these slippery politician calls, Jason, but it seems from the transcript it went really well. Did interviewing game industry representatives prepare you for something like this?
Also that last question! It’s great that, when you had an opening to expose the entanglement between…

I’ve had to do this for years for the same reason.

As always, I am hesitant to reply to comments with the knowledge that the Kinja system elevates Staff contributions and thus the comments themselves, but I want to address this since I’ve seen it pop up a couple of times in my notifications.

lol, STFU, troll.

Cars are not a “weird” hobby. Fuck HOA’s.

I’ve been waiting for the Schreier breakdown of how this fell apart far more than the game itself.

I love that she has the guts to clap back at these blowhards but is doing it in a way that is not calling them liars, sexists or alarmists, but by basically calling them idiots and making them prove their knowledge. I don’t think a lot of our politicians really know their stuff when it comes to constitutional law, tax…

$60 for the cheapest ticket in your theoretical stadium? Maybe in Dubai. I spend half that to sit 8 rows off the right field fence in Philadelphia, a city 50% larger than metro Charlotte and the Triangle combined, with a cost of living 15% higher than either. This isn’t football. And they’d only play 81 home games…

So even after a police officer got fired for arresting a nurse who wouldn’t draw blood months ago and several doctors declined to do an unnecessary procedure that very night, the hospital still went through it?

Sue them. Sue them into oblivion. EIGHT cops thirsty to get more charges to stick and a bootlicking doctor…

Eh, for what it’s worth, the article got picked up by the Google news algorithm not long after publication, which meant it was getting dumped directly into the feed of every Google user who has an alert setup for “Elon Musk.” For one thing, that’s a lot of people, only a very tiny fraction of whom are regular Deadspin…

Just FYI, when I get back to my computer from the bus stop I’m gonna ban everyone who came here to defend this doofus. Thanks.

Graduates in debt make good employees. That is corporate America’s unofficial motto. Also, when state governments look to cut budget, one of the first places to get cut is aid to higher ed. That is because they know that college kids aren’t a consistent, motivated voting block (especially for non-national elections)…

This is amazing! I am working to keep my hateration levels on low ($28K left on grad school loans)
