And all of this gets blamed on Late Stage Capitalism, mainly because nobody ever really read Adam Smith’s books. Neither of them, but especially his first. Freakonomics has a really good series on the philosophy and the actual motives behind it if you’re interested, but the upshot is that what we have here isn’t…

Funny you should mention! No, they weren’t blind, not in the way the video claimed. The video was titled “1000 blind people see for the first time.” He was paying for cataract surgery. These people had blurred or occluded vision and needed a brief but no, they weren’t seeing for the first time.

Because the focus of such an article should be on the tragic absurdity of children who would have been kept from graduating because their parents’ couldn’t pay their lunch bills and not the person who ponied up the money, as laudable as that may be.

I suspect the writer is as skeptical of philanthropy as most progressives. She’s commenting on the way MrBeast’s (sic) shtick takes it to a grotesque, almost parodic level. Just like you wouldn’t need to save orphans from a machine in a world that values children, you wouldn’t need the Sacklers’ name on a museum in a…

He’s not the only influencer. Do you really think that every other shitty YouTuber is assailed with accusations that they’re not being philanthropic? You really think these arguments just come down to “damned if you do, damned if you don’t” when what we’re talking about is creating a personally lucrative brand off of…

I mean, did you even read the article? The whole thing is far from “pretty harmless,” and in fact that attitude is harmful on its own.

It may be a superficial concern for you but that won’t be the case for everyone. As dedicated gamers (I’m making an assumption of you as well as speaking for myself), generally we go at it from a gameplay first perspective, if the gameplay looks fun I generally don’t care about the IP.

However as a licensed title it’s…

“Quick guys! Change from “shoot-the-purple-blob-the-game to shoot-the-highlighted-red-area-the-game.”

I think that perhaps Oprah Winfrey isn’t a great person. I mean, we have her to thank for both Dr. Phil AND Dr. Oz....

Tupac

I can’t believe people who know better are arguing over which of two great shows is better on the internet.

I absolutely believe Barbara Lee to be a sound and appropriate choice for the Senate. She would bring balance and a more people-oriented perspective. No doubt, she’s ready for the misogynoir and backstabbing that’s certain to come but she’s been in politics long enough to know how to deal with the filth. She has my…

This. If people would stop watching stuff that is 99% guaranteed to be garbage upfront (and it’s really not that hard to guess that percentage correctly), maybe we wouldn’t be subjected to the 4,035th crappy Marvel movie next month. Studio choices are on us and our laziness; if we wouldn’t pony up without quality,…

I had to google Sam Levinson because I never got around to watching Euphoria and the image results show the face of a man who I 100% believe would be the type of guy to say something like “wouldn’t it be CRAZY/FUNNY/EDGY if we did something like... (insert any gross thing here)?”

And the inverse - just because things are big in your circle doesn’t mean they are to everyone else. 

Yeah, not relevant

I clicked but. I am not seeing it everywhere. Like nowhere but here

Literally the first time I’ve seen this.

Yeah! Condoms and seat belts should go too! And road signs and traffic lights and lifsavers are for pussies! Learn to swim libtards!

they’ve always said, “That’s not our business. That’s not for us to tell you how to live your life or what opinions to have.”
