One of the only books I ever had to stop reading for a while because I was so profoundly uncomfortable--and this was, jeez, at least fifteen years ago--on such a visceral level.

I work for a company that has like ten people and while elements of our structure can be flexible, I still made damn sure that we do have a functional and reasonable structure!

I cut my hair short for the first time in my life last year. When I got it done, the hairdresser was like “And you have such great eyebrows for it, these cuts look really good with thick eyebrows” and I was just like, great, now I can just keep on doing the thing I have done forever because it’s easy and now it will…

Amen! Plus, everyone wants you!

I went through the entire article waiting for “after” pictures before I realized that your pussy was not, in fact, wearing a dapper little body cape in the images up top.

I’m okay with it, but I suspect it has a lot to do with the fact that (especially animated) we see a lot more human in primate faces (especially gorillas) so it doesn’t feel like as large a leap into the cartoon as pretty much any other animated animal I can think of.

My friend alerted me to it, saying “Wow, Melania’s jacket during her visit really says ‘I don’t care,” and I was like, hm, the cut, the color? I’m not normally for policing adult women for wearing things that are “too revealing” or something, but I could see clothing being really tasteless for a given situation—HOLY…

I can get behind this.

When I first read that, I thought he was implying that there’s no relationship so bad that a person can’t get a “cry for help” out, that you couldn’t at least write to someone, let them know to help you, which was HORRIFICALLY OFFENSIVE.

As my husband jokes, the compliment you’re looking for is “lovely sternum.”

I have mixed feelings on this.

Part of the issue is that there’s been a growing and notable backlash against spec work and 99design style “contests” in the freelance industry over the past few years. A distaste for spec work has been there since its inception, I imagine, but I have seen it become considerably more vocal (and, while I have mixed…

I think it’s a reasonable measure of expectations versus reception, which makes sense for something like The Witch, which was marketed heavily as SHIT YOUR PANTS HORROR from what I recall, and was actually much more of a slowburn exercise in atmosphere and tension (and I liked it, personally, but it was not what I was…

I hadn’t heard of the new one, saw that header image, and immediately went to Skype to tell my husband that they’d made a new a Operation Genesis game and I was going to get it the instant it came out.

Not the OP, obviously, but I really enjoyed Vermintide.

As a Warhammer fan (albeit of primarily Fantasy/Age of Sigmar and secondarily 40k), it is a genuine delight in my day every time anything related to 40k is posted on the Gizmodo sites—not because the articles are always great, but because inevitably, the comments section is filled up with these tremendously longwinded…

Entirely unrelated and unsolicited advice for your friend: maybe check out “puzzle feeders” (there’s tons of different varieties) if they haven’t already. I’ve found that they work for most problem-eater cats I’ve encountered—basically, they force the cat to eat the food slower/single pieces at a time. I know they…

A friend of mine calls those “ifpologies.”

Path of Exile (action RPG, Diablo-esque) has been doing something along those lines for a few years now. It’s a free to play game, paid for by primarily cosmetic microtransactions and a small amount of convenience microtransactions (such as more stash tabs for storing items, etc). There are no microtransactions that…

IT’S A FUCKING LEGAL SERVICE.
