I hope your luck is better than mine, but I found it was hard to live up to because a) PS Plus “free” games and steep temporary discounts on games I had already told myself I’d buy eventually and b) some games may not feel worth continuing, even if you were originally excited about them or have a sense that you’d be…

Ooh, ooh, now do Kinja!

He’s a creature of a different era, but he’s trying to run in this one. He’s handling this controversy exactly like someone would have 10 years ago and turning it into a series of own-goals

I’m more concerned for Alaska and North Dakota

You aren’t describing “how guys treat each other,” you’re describing toxic people being toxic together at work, creating a toxic company culture

Mix what you want, eat what you want, but that label with the red “KRA-” will not stand. Only 1/3 of those letters come from Ketchup, we have strict label laws for a reason

It is amazing how little criticism wealthy people in 2019 can endure before they snap and default to petulant Trump-y tweets

“Eh, it’s a living”

It will be interesting to be sure, but in my view automation is coming for those jobs first no matter where you live or how much you already make. Guaranteed wages (and it’s edgier cousin guaranteed jobs) are more of a way to rule out future exploitation as people compete for fewer jobs with meager compensation or…

At first, yes. But over time equal pay would promote mobility for poorer people and potentially bring the cost of living closer in both areas.

I understand that, I’m saying you shouldn’t base your thinking off of that distinction. Knowingly taken or not, pictures not intended for distribution were distributed and that is the victimization. By implying one victim could have avoided it through a different type of behavior, you are creating two classes of…

These are people that are knowingly doing it to themselves (taking the pictures), not Erin Andrews type victims.

Maybe it’s the Anonymous Senior White House Official who wrote that mealy-mouthed “resistance” op-ed 10 million news cycles ago?

A Michigan State employee who is prevented from assaulting a student athlete is an improvement, so yeah I’d be fine never seeing them even win a spelling bee from now on

It turns out if you get enough narcissists together, their ability to feel validated in whatever they do becomes self-sustaining. It’s only a matter of time before the GOP evolves into a state of non-corporal energy

If there’s a better story to be told (Jungle Book remake was superior to the original, I’ll die on that hill for Elba alone) I think the remakes can be justified.

Of course he does: how could dismal test audience scores put the studio into a panic where they quietly fired him months before everyone involved took advantage of an unrelated tragedy to let him save face while the studio could sidestep the “creative differences” narrative, if he didn’t have a rough cut for them to…

Shit rarely seems dumber than when pragmatism is the ideal

When idealism isn’t the priority, pragmatism and conservatism are indistinguishable 

Well, those people tend to be very sensitive to language that doesn’t conform to their politics and become immediately threatened when they hear it, so the media tends to walk on eggshells to avoid setting them off. If only there was a term for that
