But in a court of law, a defendant is innocent until proven guilty. So if you can’t prove guilt, he’s innocent. What is the difference?

Why would they, when there’s a perfectly good chance to shame a victim and their grieving family?!

Can’t let these opportunities slip by!!!! /s

It is still not clear to the family how Malachi got his hands on the dangerous weapon. Stephens said that he got the gun from a friend who got it from someone else. Investigators are looking into finding out who originally had the gun and passed it to the friend, the news station notes.

Oh is that a campaign mode?

lol, some people are so insecure and defensive in response to someone who makes the choice to not have kids...

As a new dad (3 months old) all I can say is... good choice. JK...kind of.

Reason #286 that I’ll never have children.

If your data is important enough that just wiping your drive and starting over is a scary idea, then you should have a proper 3-2-1 backup system in place. Then ransomware is just an inconvenience.

That Tank image is from Dominion Tank Police, not Ghost in the Shell, but delivers the point just fine of how much his art has changed.

Like I said at the time, if you’re 50 fucking yards away behind hard cover and wearing body armor you can chill for a bit and assess the situation. If you freak out under those conditions and spray the scene with bullets you have no business being a cop.

There are WAY too many names in this story to wrap my head around at the moment. But...

They were phoning it in before the phone was invented.

We’re private citizens, we’re just internet randos— we’re allowed to hate and love anyone we goddamn well want to, for any/ all/ no reasons. But when you drag your personal little 8th-grade-mean-girl grievances into the public arena under a big banner, and then proceed to make a meal of it for a couple years in a row,…

It’s similar to rape apologists. Like, “Sorry, I did this terrible, dehumanizing thing that affected you in ways I can’t even imagine, I’m sure you’ve thought about it a lot since I did it, but I’m just thinking about it for the first time right now, and realizing it was a bad thing to do. I’m so proud of how far I’ve…

That was weird. I also found it strange that the author tries to justify (at least a little bit) posting the invasive photograph in 2012 by saying that we as a culture didn’t wake up to how horrible stuff like this was until 2014. Ummmm, what? No, I’m pretty sure most of us knew well before then that it’s not OK to…

“Anne Hathaway was under no obligation to talk to me—in fact, given her feelings about Jezebel, she had good reason not to”

Man, you guys owe this woman a 50-page apology. I don’t know why anybody hates her— someone didn’t like the sincerity level of a speech she gave and that’s why so many years of public abuse and loathing? Or something? But she sounds 10x smarter & more self-aware & more gracious than any writer here, in any event.

I think your post just captured the whole ‘i don’t get twitch’ sentiment pretty well. I seriously don’t understand the appeal and then stories like this where someone’s own fans troll them is just like... Of course they did, and then the streamer himself has an unmeasured response... that’s why I don’t get this whole…

Everything about this story is annoying. Obviously Squirr3l’s behavior, and the fact that they knew each other for a while. But also that Cheese did in fact break the world record, and got a bunch of donations to his channel, and all he could do was whine about the behavior of some asshole who actually paid him to…

Yes I think you’re right. Truly a remarkable chair that allows you to get shit done while you get shit done.
