And all it cost was an arms dealer and the U.S. spiking any chance that MBS, the apparent mediator in this case, might be held financially responsible by Jamal Khashoggi’s widow for MBS’s goons butchering her husband.

Bad guys, 15 - love.

Still, it’d be nice if more people had been willing to throw a buck a month his way for the sake of the work he was doing for them.

This story belongs in the Gawkmodo Narrative Collapse Hall of Fame, alongside Jezebel’s dedication to the debunked Rolling Stone UVA frat rape story, and the Gawker staff trying to out supposed closeted homosexual David Geithner, who was not gay, seemingly on behalf of someone trying to blackmail Geithner, and then…

That particular Hank Williams song has been used to promote the game in the past. You can find it in the Gamescom 2012 promo trailer for the first LOTU game.

Gustavo Santaolalla is credited for the TV show on IMDB, so he, or at least his music, are going to be used in the show in some capacity.

TSR = “That’s Some Racism!”?

The Crucible matches I’ve played have usually been so brief, even when I was getting my butt handed to me by better geared players it never occurred to me to bail early from the match.

Bungie has a gift for implementing new systems and sucking the fun right out of them by making them so grind-y (or real world cash dependent if you wish to skip the in-game grind) that by the time you can use them after the initial introductory push where you usually get freebies to fiddle with the systems, players…

It’s good to know your headline writers are as terrible about reading the entire story as the Kotaku audience is.

Dustin probably would have been the better ST kid to pick to get to Eddie.

A reasonable person would have...

I haven’t played a Sims game in a while. Regardless of the English words picked, don’t they all speak Simlish nonsense and pictograms anyway?

“Why are you here?” he asked.

It could have taken a swift turn into sepsis, which can come on quick and kill in a day. It’s treatable, but it’s symptoms can resemble other ailments (like a stroke, as it did with my mother in 2019), and its related cognitive effects can incapacitate someone.

What game is up next? Whatever Peter Thiel plays on his iPhone when he’s not funding your website’s destruction?

In college, I had the variant “The Guy Who Is Always In the Living Room Who Was Caught Bare-Assed, Humping the Futon In Said Living Room.”

It’s a shame that Sony seems to have put the PS5's interface in the hands of the same team of dummies who reworked their online game store into its current, crappier iteration.

“An $18m fine, does that even count as a slap on the wrist?”

Given that Activision will probably get a rebate over ten times that size from the IRS when it does its taxes for 2021 (as they did in 2019 on their 2018 taxes), no, it doesn’t.

My Titan with Sweet Business + Actium War Rig supports this decision.

Sony’s store is overseen by and designed by morons. For a company its size - with a large consumer technology component, no less - it has one of the least user-friendly store interfaces, and the recent redesign only made it worse.

It’s why I will never buy a digital-only PS5. Having to rely on that piss poor e-store to…

If only you morons had pursued Harvey Weinstein with such zeal.
