Max, that's FANTASTIC work. Well done.

There’s two parts to a protest. You go outside and you protest, and then the company or the individual say, ‘I hear you. What do we do next?’

What’s Better Than One Billionaire Remaining Seated During the Super Bowl National Anthem?

I pay my federal taxes on time and, unlike most conservatives, without complaint. Most of them go towards the blank check that’s the DoD’s annual operating budget. I’m already supporting the military financially whether i will it or not, so they can miss me with all this extra jingoistic bullshit.

I’ll get shit for it, but I’d rather vote for the old white guy who has remained more-or-less consistent in his left-wing views over a pretend, feel-good shallow veneer of progress disguising the same neoliberal, center-right bullshit.

In the doc, you’re brutally honest on Sanders: “He was in Congress for years. He had one senator support him. Nobody likes him, nobody wants to work with him, he got nothing done. He was a career politician. It’s all just baloney and I feel so bad that people got sucked into it.” That assessment still hold?

that’s exactly how i read it. i’m a little tired of how outraged people get on twitter and how quick folks are to jump on shit nowadays. 

I’m here for this. Btw, this is why local elections and DA elections count people. Protests are cool, but when we show up to vote then some shit will actually get done. 

Can’t what he said be read as “I will vote for the piece of art I find to be the best of my choices, regardless of its source”? That doesn’t exclude diversity, but it doesn’t take it into consideration. In the same way that, for example, you’d assume that height would be a normal distribution amongst writers because…

Ah yes, rather than considering and discussing how these games resonated with them on a personal level, they should have instead given a more objective choice based on... I dunno, metacritic? What do you want? I’m sorry you didn’t get a shallow “this sure was a fun game so it’s my fave of the decade” article, that…

On the contrary, I was more than pleasantly surprised by a deeper, more personal article than what the title implied.

>> The problem was never women in video games - the problem was men in video games seeing women in video games (again, playing, speaking about, etc.).

This was an excellent read.

I usually don’t have time to read the Kotaku features, so I fully expected to browse the first couple of paragraphs and move on.

The cost is irrational, since it is set by emotionally compromised and mentally unstable losers.

As a librarian, a person of color, and a Trekkie, the day I got a hug from LeVar Burton was one of the top five days of my entire life. LeVar should be knighted. I don’t care that the USA doesn’t knight people; we should do it just for him.

Levar Burton is a Grade A, stand up guy.
But you don’t have to take my word for it.

Wake me up when any of these cowards actually stand up for something, vs. just being “disappointed” or “disturbed”. They’re all a bunch of craven shitheels, and deserve no accolades.

no splinter runner up? I have rage there. Killing a strongly left leaning blog that attracted a fairly large cross section of people who could encourage each other right before the election? transparent.
