If you wanna play a fun riff on Oregon Trail, I highly recommend Organ Trail. Basically, it’s Oregon Trail, but during the zombie apocalypse. You have to drive cross country in a beat up station wagon (hur hur) filled with characters named after your friends, all while dealing with dwindling supplies, zombie hoards,…

P-hacking is a real concern for me right now as I’m putting my dissertation proposal together. My idea isn’t all that weird or strange, but purely out of vanity, I want to test as much as I can and make the paper as beefy and outwardly impressive as possible. It’s unrelated, but I also hope to find statistically…

As I was a science major in college, where I worked in a lab, and learned how to properly analyze scientific journal articles and their findings, and as I always give side-eye to the clickbaity diet headlines, this particular experiment was important, and I’m so glad you did it.

Yeah, a lot of people seem to forget that this film follows the same structure of the last two Mad Max films. Max wanders around, finds woman with a group of people, helps said woman with her problems and those with her, and at the end he leaves on to the next great adventure. He’s just a character along for the ride…

Movies that contain no action to speak of, no violence, and nothing in common with Fury Road

Rob, Miller was given the rights to Mad Max and Road Warrior by Warner Bros. as part of the deal to drop Justice League. They had no choice but to use Miller since he owned the rights to the character, world, etc. And considering how much money Miller has pulled in for WB with those animated ‘kids’ movies, he still…

Well assuming English is your native tongue... you’re not Irish, or your would know what a communion dress is called and would know they’re not on sale everywhere. You would also know why and how Irish law works the way it does, and you would know how hard we are fighting for equality in this country and you wouldn’t…

While you make some valid points, the unjustified superiority of your tone is unpleasant. This site has given plenty of examples over the years of how many politicians and their supporters in the USA would happily take away women’s rights.

People are gone from their home countries for work for extended periods of time, university study or other training programs, waiting out a visa situation with a spouse, caring for family members... I can think of so many reasons. They are still very much a part of their communities and plan to return after a year or…

Irish people are highly educated and good at languages. We travel worldwide for work because Ireland is a country of 4 million people and the job market is small. Getting experience overseas can make all the difference to your career. Many, many people are abroad but not settled there. Think of them as commuters who…

We all had to leave to get jobs because of the recession but most are temporary working visas abroad or are within the EU which has free movement of people. For most it’s a temporary fix and we will all be back so still entitled to our say. I’m very proud of all who made the extra effort.

irish people abroad are eligible to vote if they’ve been out of the country less than 18 months. you are not eligible to vote if you think you might like to go to ireland on holiday sometime. hope this clears things up.

I have lived outside of the US since 2010, yet I am still registered to vote and do. I am a citizen of the United States and may return one day—why should I be cut out of the process because I am currently away?

So proud of Ireland today,voted yes myself yesterday.
