If the government or an outside body were to force a localization team to remove certain elements of the game, it’s censorship. If a company decides to change some things about their own product in localization, because of how they want to present themselves in another market, because of how gamers in another market…

No, she definitely didn't. She was accusing Zayn of taking on the role of the oppressor while being completely unaware of how she was embodying the role of the oppressor by denigrating Zayn for his race and ethnicity. You're giving her far too much credit. I'm sure you can look up the Periscope I'm referring to but be…

Oh wow.! I don’t know how strong Aretha’s voice is now but I need to hear her version of I'm Every Woman. Chaka Khan has been underrated! Have you heard this is it good?

If you like Fallin did you like You Don’t Know My Name? I feel like their instrumentation is fairly similar. And then there’s Unbreakable, which is much funkier to it’s credit but it does have an unfortunate Bill Cosby reference that I totally forgot about.

Maaaan I am NOT a Taylor Swift fan but I’m sadly going to defend her here. I certainly think Alicia is a more talented instrumentalist, but Swift has pretty solid chops. And on the flip side I don’t think there was that much of a gulf between their commercial success until recently. All of Alicia’s projects have gone…

Yeah, it’s a hot single. I’m surprised that I liked it because I haven’t been crazy about her last few discs. Or really much of anything beyond her sophomore project. I’m actually excited about her record, come through on this one Alicia.

Looool they would've gotten way more press going that route over giving the Taylor Swift award toooo.... drumroll please... Taylor Swift

She has memorized a lot of buzzwords but she doesn’t understand them. During yesterday’s tirade she said, “The oppressed take on the role of the oppressor,” immediately after spewing several racist slurs and then she piled on a few more for good measure. Banks only understands racism as it negatively impacts her, she…

If she isn’t mentally disturbed she is really and truly an asshole. Her Zayn thing got her booted from a UK festival she was supposed to be headlining, that’s probably the only reason she’s feeling reflective today.

That Tumblr thing sounds like a vocal minority sort of thing. At least I desperately hope so, I've never heard of young women supporting ideas like that and I don't think many men besides the MGTOW/MRA crowd would be for it. Thankfully I can't recall a politician ever entertaining those ideas publicly.

I don’t know how fair that is, though. He has a lot of physical ability, but the lack of growth in his offensive game isn’t just a coincidence. Agility and dexterity are hugely important for big men, Howard is losing that agility as he ages but I don’t think he ever had the dexterity. He had enough physical gifts to…

Oh wow, I had no idea that grammatical difference between American and the Queen’s English existed. I can't get over how incorrect it sounds to me but we call the sport soccer over here so British English is definitely more appropriate.

Yeah, I've maintained that the director was certainly more in the wrong but Kristen certainly never seemed remorseful. I think her girlfriend broke up with her because Stewart cheated on her with another woman too so she hasn't changed since then either. She's still young, hopefully she can figure out how to respect…

It sounds like they asked Eissenburg as well in this case at least.

Not necessarily, IMO at least. To me, this sounds pretty similar to how she reacts to any adverse coverage. I definitely agree that she uses the language of rape culture here, I just don’t think she’d feel any differently if the movie were directed by Kim Jong Un or Pol Pot or someone known for basically anything…

I think this is more good ole-fashioned egocentricity and self-centered behavior. I'm curious as to whether she actually spoke to Jesse or not. It's impossible to tell really but his quote kinda makes it seem like the conversation never happened but he didn't want to call her out. But I'm admittedly reading into it.

Manchester United is also singular so it should be HAS in the headline. That's driving me nuts but you have a strong correction as well.

Demar DeRozan has cost himself soooooooo much money this postseason. He has been more singularly awful in the playoffs than any player I can remember.

Yeah I was suspicious but everything was confirmed when I saw refs in Toronto’s huddle telling DeRozan to shoot 4/17 and directing Corey Joseph not to run a play or approach the 3pt line on the final play in regulation. The kicker was when the refs got DeRozan to score a goal for MIA in OT. Crazy stuff.

I don’t even want to imagine how expensive vegan, paraben-free, glycerin-free, Nonoxynal-9-free, and benzocaine- and lidocaine-free condoms are. I'm not even sure which of those things are actually dangerous and which are pseudoscience dangerous and which are made-up things inserted by bored GOOP writers.
