This is literally what’s happening to a handful of stocks. The logic being that institutional short sellers will HAVE to cover exorbitant prices when their shorts expire, contractually obligated. All with the collective power of public info sharing. Everything is above board no matter how pissed the billionaires are.

I’ve read that some of the firms/corps that were shorting Gamestop and getting fucked over now are the ones we bailed out back in ‘08. The funds that bankroll some sports teams are involved too. I say good. Just another crack/hole exposed in this stupid system where the “economy” is booming, but people have no money

Even if she did call for the killing of all white people, I’d hear her out. Maybe she has a good argument. 

I’m more nuanced than you on whether assholes are humans. I believe in inhumanity. That is, in the double movement of dehumanization (considering your target as subhuman, and, as such, losing your own humanity). It’s a bit of a paradoxical domino row, because it makes me lose in turn my own humanity. But I keep double…

Well, silencing conservative discourses beyond a certain threshold of toxicity and misinformation is actually legitimate (some discourses and worldviews have to be eradicated from the public space that otherwise legitimizes them, because words, ideas and beliefs have very practical consequences). And again, there’s…

Okay, because of the kneejerk crowd flocking on that comment, I have to state explicitly that I agree with you. And I’m not really addressing you, here, but the crowd in question : 

That’s the thrust of it.  That is pretty much Zeus in classical telling; a dude who learns his lesson for about five minutes then goes right back to being an irredeemable jackass.

Activision tends to do this a lot. Raven, Neversoft, High Moon are a few that they’ve knocked down to support studios.

I would like an audience with the people who thought this was a good idea.

It’s weirdly comforting to know that, come what may, the AV Club will try to stir up the long-burned out embers of the Ghostbusters (2016) controversy whenever they have the opportunity.

Even if you are not interested in next-generation titles only, having a PS5 means that your cross generation titles will play significantly better. Look at something like Hitman 3 which is 1800p at 60fps versus 1440p at 30fps. Or Cyberpunk 2077 which is, frankly, pretty unplayable on the previous generation consoles.

Surely this will work out better than all those other times they attempted competitive multiplayer like Resident Evil 5 Versus and Resident Evil Operation Raccoon City and Umbrella Corps and Resident Evil Resistance.

There was an all-too-accurate comment on Reddit during Black Friday that the best deals to be found this year are ones that let you pay MSRP. Big mood.

Or, the company could take the opportunity not to be petty and tell him to change the name quickly and continue or be disqualified.

That’s like me saying my Chevy’s brakes suck while in a race sponsored by chevy while needing my brakes in a turn.

Classic private company making a situation a bigger deal by getting salty about it. Just tell him to change it and it’s literally never discussed. Now it’s A Thing. Solid work!

These ridiculous takes I see on this site are absolutely how Trump rose to power.

I was definitely influenced by Raiders of the Lost Ark, started looking into archeology, then realized it was completely not for me. Culturally Abhorrent is quite the take. It snuck up on me, no one told me I should hate Indiana freaking Jones now. Fortunately, I am the type of person that can distinguish between…
