Guess what! I don’t care if you believe me even though I’ve mentioned the place where I worked many times here before (well, on Gawker, not here). It’s not difficult to look up past board members. And she’s dead and I’m not, so I win.

Hi, I left a long response to FeckYeahDarylYaBeast that explains a bit (12:17 pm). She wasn’t my boss in any way, she was just a board member (and negative feedback wouldn’t make me cry). She was just a nasty human being.

She was SO MEAN and incredibly dismissive and it was glaringly obvious she expected to be fawned over to the extreme. It wasn’t just me, my entire office despised her. I once tipped over from a crouching position (I was dealing with cables and av equipment) and everyone saw my thong. I was mortified. She complained to…

if we lived in a world where everyone knew all information would eventually be free, then people might behave better. We’ll never live in that world.

As soon as Wiki started hitting at Democrats (as opposed Bush administration) they became “traitors”. Makes sense.

Interesting, because Maya Angelou used to be on the board at my old job and to this day is the only person who has made me cry at work. Our president used to hide from her because she was such a nasty piece. I guess she wrote this about herself.

I embraced “being a jerk” roughly 10 years ago because it functions as an easy to understand excuse for living in relative social isolation. I do feel and understand emotions. I really do care about the well being of others. I used to be extremely warm and open with people because that would make them feel good (I…

Jesus Christ this election is the biggest joke on the planet.

What’s absolutely mind-boggling is that none of you idiots seem to care about the content of the emails, just about making snarky remarks about Trump and Putin. Even if Russia did release them....who cares. It is painfully obvious that no matter what Hillary Clinton tells you about her campaign/presidency, she’s…

He is releasing emails, not doctored but actual emails.

Every single person lies at least occasionally, I don’t know that it makes us all “conscienceless”. Also, sticking to this rule would make it impossible to support people with substance abuse problems and other personal struggles.

My point, though, is that most of the people I have ever known who I suspect would have failed this test, were dealing (or not dealing) with something internal that was beyond their control—whether it be chronic depression, bipolar disorder, etc. I mean, I’m sure there are plenty of so-called “toxic” people who don’t…

I think there’s always a danger with this kind of ready-reckoning selection - as if three is some magic number - hides a lot of the complexity of life. Even with the ‘exception’ disclaimer, there are people, friends, family, acquaintances where 3 is not the right number. It oversimplifies life which is not just a case…

I don’t see why people get so mad about the Russian connection. Does it make the information any less true? Who cares if he doesn’t publish any anti-Trump stuff, it’s better to get something than nothing at all.

I think the implication of the “dead man’s switch” is that he has some information held out for effect in case he is brutally murdered by the government or org in question reflects more poorly on the governments in question rather than Julian Assange

Dear god, another “MUH RUSSIAN CONNECTION” comment

err.... traitor to what?

Who exactly did he betray?

It’s not sexism if done in favor of women.
