Untitled Goose Game may well be one of the funniest games I’ve ever played. There’s just something so hilarious about being a complete asshole of a goose.

Yeah, they actually do.

A change in corporate culture from engineer-driven to accounting-driven.

Yeah. Rule number one of corporate communication is to leave no embarrassing paper trail.

Who puts comments like that in internal corporate emails? I have never seen any back and forth of that nature in 40 years in corporate environments, even in one-on-one email discussions.  From the nature of the topics being discussed, these should be a heck of a lot more professional.

“Work With White People”; “Sing, Rap, or Dance”; “Be Magic”; (Pangaean adds) “Let White People Steal Your Story”

“It’s unclear!” they all cry, ignoring the part about them being able to ban you for off stream and social media incidents that could include harassing or using rhetoric that is against protected groups.

Oh ffs, even here I can’t get away from this bullshit “GDQ is full of *drama*” narrative?

Guy goes to private function, private function decides they don’t want him based on past behaviour, they revoke his right to attend.

I could see “deminonbinary” as a valid identity; it would mean you’re a little bit nonbinary. Most people use “demigirl” or “demiboy” though. And using his nickname as his pronouns could *really* be communicated better; I do know people who don’t like pronouns at all, they just prefer their name to be said in all…

For a not inconsiderable portion of the population marriage is as much an economic choice as an emotional one, though we're loath to admit it. Maintaining one household with two incomes (hopefully) is one of the few paths still open to build even a modest measure of wealth. Two houses for a married couple is for most…

Environmental toxicologist here - it won’t rinse out, it’s used to water proof clothing.  However, these are large compounds that are not likely to cross the skin barrier in high enough concentrations to cause the cancers associated with PFAS, those are caused by this chemical primarily in drinking water.  So unless…

I happened to catch this one live last week, and I was glued to the screen the whole time. Especially the first few stages where he hasn’t taken a death yet.

I tend to agree that there is some silliness involved in caring this much about an industry awards show. But the Oscars and their ilk reflect, pretty clearly, the industry’s determination of what stories are worth telling. The people voting on who gets nominated and who wins are many of the same people who green light…

im not surprised she had trouble googling the UK number. it was recently changed:

Always assume the cop is lying.

Amazing teammate right there. I’ve always wondered what the equivalent of ‘911' was in other countries?

There is absolutely no justification for cops ever lying about incidents, or to suspects. In many other western nations they are not just obligated to tell the truth, but must also hand over all the evidence they have at time of questioning to the suspect’s lawyers. And they still get convictions over there. It is…

He went there to get overcharged, and he got overcharged.

The Olympic games have to be some of the most politically charged sporting events in the world. Countries literally compete for who will spend the most tax dollars displacing poor people for a giant eyesore stadium that will most likely not be used for shit, decades after the games.
