Ah, this is the high caliber discussion I’m sure Splinter was hoping we’d get back to with the great greying.

Same. i09 and Kotaku used to my favorite blogs (I still like them) and the whole reason I joined the Gawker-verse. Still grey. Splinter and the Root both followed me pretty quickly and I took that to mean it was for encouraging discussion. They both tend to be a spawning ground for some great conversations and…

I’ll probably never be ungreyed because I don’t comment that much, but if it helps make this site a better forum for thoughtful discussion I don’t really mind anyway.

I always find it a little funny how all these ads claiming Democrats want to destroy everything we hold dear in America can never actually articulate why Democrats want to destroy everything Americans hold dear.

Pharah is half native American, which makes her American and Egyptian. https://www.dbltap.com/posts/5415519-blizzard-confirms-pharah-s-father

I’m going to wait here while you review the following documentation—I won’t be holding my breath, of course, because facts don’t seem to matter much in conversations like this

The last big thing to happen there was America, and due to the controversy that caused it was decided nothing significant should ever happen there again.

And to be fair they didn’t ask her to leave until she became enraged that the restaurant could not provide Solo and the Wookie.

Humanity has always been fucked. It has it’s highs and lows, and what’s happening now is certainly a low point, but I try to keep some perspective on it.

Not only that, but you get access to the trove of older games that you can play for free (it varies). You also get a discount on purchases from the store, which stacks in addition to any sales that may be happening. It’s a tremendous value if you play a lot of PC games.

“I agree white men are having it tough....”

When I was 13, I had something similar happen to me in SC. My dad was an alcoholic abusive asshole who frequently used to come home late and try to fight me. I don’t mean just beat or yell at, he would legit start shoving and punching. Finally one day I fought back and he had me “voluntarily” committed to a psyche…

I just watched one of my favorite Garak episodes last night! It was the one where he goes nuts and almost dies because he grew dependent on a device intended to help him resist interrogation and Bashir has to use his Star Trek doctor magic to save him.

My only slight rebuttal to the whole John McCain sucks bandwagon is that all republicans suck. For a republican, McCain was one of the better ones, and now that he’s gone the entire GOP is even worse than it was before. This is especially true considering how they are turning their backs on their own beloved colleague…

Big Alcohol really needs to be the new Big Tobacco. The way it’s been marketed for years is intentionally misleading just like it was for the tobacco industry. There should be some accountability for that.

I’m of the opinion it’s all of humanity that has historically been this way, and it isn’t hard to find plenty of evidence to support that. At some point in the last few hundred years, society began to move on from senseless barbarism and realize that all people benefit from a more egalitarian society. Those are the…

I mean this is the only legitimate take to me. I don’t like the guy, but I don’t need to like the guy. To be honest, I don’t really care about the guy. I just want to see how this all plays out, and in that capacity Lanny Davis has my full support. We have a bad habit in this day and age of jumping to whatever the…

Yeah, he always does that. It’s his thing. There is /s there it’s just a silent one. I’m more concerned about the 7 people that starred it. The hell is wrong with you people? He literally just butheremailsed all of you.

I just don’t understand this shit anymore. When I was a kid growing up in the 90s, no one ever had to tell us white kids can’t use the n word even though black kids/adults could. At least within my circle of peers, we just understood that it was something hurtful with a racist history and that within black circles it…

Conservatives are against welfare, not charity. In their perfect Leave IT To Beaver world, welfare isn’t necessary because if someone in the community is down on their luck, the rest of the neighborhood will pitch in and help with groceries and what not. Conveniently, this philosophy excludes anyone not in your direct…
