No random capitalized words or paranoid references to BIG [NOUN] manipulating you. Does this really sound like Magary? Reader, it does not

Between corporations running up the score uncontested, algorithms influencing how people think and interact with each other, and the platform based gig economy, I’m convinced that we’ve gone full cyberpunk and no one’s really noticed

I’ve been on one online date in my life, and we’re getting married next April. On one hand I’m a “success story,” but on the other hand I would be uniquely unqualified to talk about the ins and outs of online dating because I only had an active OKcupid profile for a few weeks. It’s just an area where experience can…

Exposing hypocrisy is now “both sides”?

No need to resort to name calling to damage a random stranger’s implied credibility just because you made a bad comment. It happens to everyone from time to time and for all you know you’re trying to big-time a robot or something

Whataboutism (also known as whataboutery) is a variant of the tu quoque logical fallacy that attempts to discredit an opponent’s position by charging them with hypocrisy without directly refuting or disproving their argument

Just some thoughts to ponder

Obviously, this is just another level of satire. What’s a better way of making fun of how bunch of unaccountable white guys who will immediately claim that they’re misunderstood and everyone is overreacting as soon they face criticism can get away with it as long as their politics line up with their audiences’?

The policy excludes chicken but allows eggs. Unless they’ve somehow figured out how to farm eggs without chickens, this is not about environmental impact

Come back soon Fahey! By “soon” I mean when you feel healthy and adjusted, not on the whims of anonymous commentors who enjoy your articles!

I’m sympathetic to vegetarianism, but I am 100% calling bullshit on the logic here. If they wanted to impact the environment they could turn off the AC at their properties, or countless other methods to limit their carbon footprint that would affect their product instead of policing what their employees choose to eat

Looking at female Marvel heroes from the Silver age, Wasp, Invisible Girl (Not yet a woman...), and Jean “Marvel Girl” Grey all had power sets that allowed them to move away from the action as soon as possible and trip up the villains while they were distracted (Jean was more about untying shoelaces than the Phoenix…

I’ve heard of people cutting off their toxic parents even though they know there will be a lot of drama and self-pity in the short term. I guess it goes both ways

You give him way too much credit, fiddles are hard to play. This is washtub bass, tops

But Ace is a consummate gambler and handicapper; in the end, his eyes don’t give away a thing

This Mister Falcon needs to Back the Truck Up about this

I think it was the best choice for the narrative, but I was really hoping we’d see the OG lineup fighting onscreen together in IW2:

Turns out telling the independent contractor who did marble installation in your new casino that you’re only going to pay him 60% or you’ll tie him up in court for the next few years is different than negotiating international trade/military/diplomatic agreements.

You nailed it. I also think that’s what’s damaging about worldviews like Brooks’, serious questions about the status quo are followed about 80% of the way before the logic underpinning the original systemic problem is brought back as a counterpoint and isn’t questioned, so the system ironically ends up stronger and…

They also got the ball rolling on the “introduce Jeremy Renner in a sequel then quietly phase him out a few movies later” trend that’s taken Hollywood by storm
