Considering the huge business Aquaman is now doing for the same studio, they seemed to have hedged their bets well enough. Rowling isn’t seeing a dime of that though, so I can’t imagine she’s pleased with her choices

The writing is on the wall in terms of Republican credibility, and it’s only going to make more of a feedback loop as more moderates stop using the Republican label and the voices driving people away become more prominent. This is already happening, and those people who moved over are finding that they don’t actually…

If that was the case, then why did you have to use a bad metaphor to mischaracterize my original counterpoint before you were able to refute it? And when you took the time to respond to me pointing that out and clarifying my original counterpoint further, why did you again refuse to address it?

There are games that let you play as literal Nazis in PvP, and actual gun companies use FSPs to promote their brands to people while they’re young. You aren’t wrong that it’s problematic to include military contractors in a piece of consumer media, but that kind of logic is tough to apply selectively in a genre that…

It’s “diplomacy” or “respect” by another name

My mom hasn’t used it incorrectly in a text yet, a clear sign the struggle continues

I’m saying that it’s about perspective: there is more of a bad thing but less of a number of worse things. If you’re talking to someone who is terminal, things couldn’t be worse, so that’s not a good way to characterize my point 

If they’re vaping instead of doing hard drugs or burning stuff before they inhale it, honestly things could be worse. It’s like how teens sexting each other creates a shitload of unforeseen problems downstream, but none of those problems are going to be a human baby, so they’re probably ahead of the curve

If your other tables are there to see you half-ass it, you might end up costing yourself more money. Free market might work both ways, but the server assumes most of the risk regardless

This is what happens when the tapeworms hit 20-30 feet and they start thinking they’re better off without the rest of the pig

“I was just asked to leave a funeral by a family member of a deceased football player. If you need someone to blame, I’m your man, I’m your fall guy. This is how society is when things go not as planned. We blame others for our own shortcomings. This tragedy is not about me or you. It’s about looking in the mirror as…

Man, the features development team must have hit the end of the runway and panicked right before a meeting. Fortunately, Netflix execs don’t turn down a pitch

Steven Seagal “vs” Mike Tyson

I only have the one star to give for adding to the conversation, but thanks for supporting the Field Museum!

I think they’re Coca-cola (or at least used to be), so that makes sense. I can never keep track of who owns what these days, but if some water bottle companies are sweating the transition I’m assuming those are the ones without access to that infrastructure already

I don’t think we need to worry about her getting too much higher, future DAs rarely make national news for letting rapists walk. The internet is a shitty, shitty place, but I’d like to think I can at least count on it to keep this story on the first page when you google “Hilary LaBorde”

You’re only really paying for the bottle anyway, and the writing has been on the wall about plastic packaging for years. The obvious choice is aluminum, but they’re way late getting into the canned water market.

She’s worried about her conviction rating, not justice. She isn’t fit to serve

These risks are elevated when you do not have a profitable company, and when you depend upon a benevolent ownership, which we currently enjoy, to finance it as a public trust
