I think you just hit the nail on the head right there... For-profit news... As a history teacher, I’m always trying to get kids to think for themselves and be objective, critical thinkers. I truly feel like human bias is in an upswing of the pendulum right now, and the best way to see the truth is to get news from…

lol

I get where you’re coming from, but when iOS’s App Store came out, we regularly saw games and apps priced where they could be “bought once”.

So like ... can I have maternity leave? Affordable prenatal care? Any treatment for my battered lady-bits after birth? Help with childcare? (My parents live very, very far away and I really like what I do for a living.) Will my daughters be able to get jobs where they won’t be harassed by their employers, or is their…

In all honesty as a person who does some social media management professionally (not my main gig, but I do run two corporate consumer-facing accounts) it will not hurt them. This kind of irreverence and snark is what most people are attracted to now. Earnestness doesn’t get likes and retweets, sass does, every time.

Yes! I know it as The Terrible Secret of Animal Crossing, and it’s the best LP/fanfic thing I’ve ever read!

“Trust but verify” is just another way of saying “believe women,” which is another way of saying “don’t reflexively disbelieve women.”

Just gotta get through this, Melania, she thinks as she walks through the whispering wood. Just gotta get through this.

I don’t understand why Aurora was made to take a polygraph test and it makes me furious. They aren’t allowed in a court and haven’t been forever. Why does she have to “prove” herself in with an outdated piece of quasi-scientific evidence? Her word is enough for me. She has nothing to gain and is already experiencing…

I’m probably only going to play it for a month. I made a lot of characters in Vanilla WoW because Elwynn Forest, Westfall, and Duskwood were amazing. Then the game sucked after those zones. Excited to play them again, but probably won’t make it to 60.

This whole comment sums everything up that I’ve been wanting to say but lack the articulation. This. Right. Here.

I played vanilla and played nostalrius and i enjoyed every second of my replaying. You just have to be able to get into it and get emersed, most can’t because of adult lives getting in the way

“. It’s not just the game that you want; it’s the feeling you had when you were playing the game.”

Gee, who could’ve seen this coming aside from you know everyone...

Yes, they do call in. All of them. And we would usually go through a case by case basis. If it happens once and is within a specific time frame or amount, we would refund and offer certain conditions and restrictions on the account. If they called in again with the same issue we would offer an ultimatum. “We can…

One small point on this - a lot of the people you mention there would be members of Equity, the actor’s union. One of the conditions of membership is that you cannot have the same name as an existing member.

Marilyn Manson’s real name is Brian Warner. Just felt like adding that.

My cousins have an account for their golden retrievers that has about 49K followers and on top of money, they receive really cool items from the sponsors.

Yeah, dogs pick up real easy on mood. But where this works as a exercise for kids is in keeping the kids from hyperactivity, which always excites a dog either aggressive or playful. What I don’t like about this is that it seems to assume dogs are aggressive. Dogs sense that fear, and can easily aggravate that in a…

Other mobile games also require actual development and still don’t cost as much. Having the first episode free makes perfect sense, and even charging a few dollars for later ones does too, but the bundle being $20 is a bit steep for a game that has all the sidequests and other content cut out. I’ll be buying it myself…
