I feel like a broken record, but section 230 of the Communications Decency Act of 1996 needs to be updated. Waiting on advertisers to exert pressure on platforms like YouTube to police content that exploits minors and ban users who share and or/profit from said abuse is clearly not working. We’ve done this dance too

Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act of 1996 needs to be looked at and revised for the 21st century, because GOD DAMN did we ever not foresee just how completely and thoroughly the freedom granted by that little bit of legislation would enable bad actors to leverage public platforms to hurt, harass, exploit,

Almost perfect, needs one small tweak:

I’ma go out on a limb here and say that this is even more than a hate crime - it’s terrorism.

Hearthstone just surpassed 100 million active players in late 2018, soooo... if CCGs are a fad, it looks like either there’s a VERY long tail after the peak or we haven’t seen the peak yet.

Racism is an enemy you cannot kill. All you can do is wound it, drive it back beneath the water, and teach your children to watch the waves for its return.

“The Fuhrman Diares”, as in, Mark... Fuhrman? The super racist cop from the OJ trial? Nazi-obsessed Mark Fuhrman? Mark “Alt Right Before It Was Cool” Fuhrman?

Mars is a garbage planet for toilet people and not a viable candidate for colonization due to its trash-tier surface gravity. Sure, it’s got that rocky surface the kids are all crazy for, but it’s also got an atmosphere so thin Durex is trying to figure out how to use it to market condoms and a magnetosphere that’s

No, seriously, we’ve been defunded. It’s just you now.

That would mean the devastation is incredibly small; as in, no matter how small you say the devastation is, it’s even smaller than that. It cannot be understated.

A Trump-voting, pro-coal white guy who just lost an election wants to be the next president. Hard pass. This is so incredibly stupid.

For reference:

Nice choice of thumbnail. Way to frame this story like an AWESOME Michael Bay summer action blockbuster withh BIG MUSCLE MEN and TOTALLY RAD BOOM BOOM GUNS rather than the humanitarian crisis and horrifying tragedy it actually is.

Well, if she made all that shit herself, then I can think of at least a handful of places in Hollywood that would love to offer her gainful employment (assuming she doesn’t already work in the visual effects and film costuming industry).

I love how “Adult Height” is considered a convincing increase risk for several different types of cancer.

The Passage shares the same DNA as The Last of Us. If they do the books justice, this show could be a sleeper hit.

I see a pattern emerging. Obama sleeps in a bed; Trump orders whores to piss on it. Obama passes incredible healthcare legislation; Trump tries to dismantle it. Obama reaches landmark agreement with Iran; Trump rips it up. Obama enters into an important international climate change agreement; Trump pulls out almost

What baffles me (I mean, beyond literally everything else about this fucked up story) is that they went through all this trouble. They’re white. They could have just called the cops, pointed to the two dead black men with a gun, and told the police that they were just defending themselves against these scary super

Alternate headline:

Maybe there should be a some kind of disincentive for calling the cops for no god damn reason. This feels like SWATting; see a face you don’t like? Call the cops, tell them there’s a very scary black man who may have a WEAPON, and see what happens. Maybe when you needlessly put someone else’s life at risk, there
