I kind of liked Hatesong until it became 99% comedians known only for podcasts doing the interviews. It's telling that they can't seem to drag musicians in for it anymore.

Oh, I have been for a while now. I've been trying to avoid anything that looks like a) a recap of a late night segment; b) some recounting of Trump minutiae; c) an article that's going to consist of tweets an/or meme explanations. It's been odd to see how much less I read on the site now because of that.

Not every speaker is intended to convert people to a cause. They could theoretically get people who could edify them on topics of interest to young conservatives. I'm sure that's how they'd characterize Coulter; if so, I don't know what to say about them.

The thing is, though, that they've outright stated that the political articles do WAY more volume in terms of clicks. If that's the case, then I don't see the site's direction getting any better.

Some of the others have done good Random Roles, but Harris is definitely the master of the form.

If the rest of the power under the hood was getting used for something else of value, why not? That's not far off from the idea behind Dwarf Fortress.

It is. In the eye of this particular beholder, she's a fool. She has totally wasted her life up to this point. It's like people don't know about Faust anymore.

If I can convince you of one thing, I want it to be this: you are not in a subordinate position. Anyone with whom you'd start a relationship, no matter how much experience they have, is coming into this the same way that you are. If they say otherwise, chuck 'em. Experience doesn't tell a person anything about…

Huh. Learn something every day. In that case, they can waste their money however they like. Fucked if I know why a college Republican group cares about Ann Coulter in this day and age.

Was she not going to receive a speaker's fee, though? Do they do tickets there? The talks I've been to at my school don't generally cost unless they're part of a conference, in which case there's a conference fee.

Many would kill for that kind of market penetration. 2% of a country's population? Career made!

My only real issue with Coulter speaking at colleges/universities is that they're throwing students' money away on nearly content-free gibberish served on a bed of facile hatred. Schools are theoretically supposed to exercise some judgement and discretion. If I'm a student and Coulter's speaking at my school, I…

She spoke at UWO some years back, actually. Turns out that she doesn't have anything to say when she does get to speak.

She spoke at my university (UWO in London ON) years ago, back in the prime of her career. The whole thing ended in the usual acrimony. One takeaway I had, reading about her speech in the news, was that I would have felt pretty ripped off had I been there. She doesn't really give talks, per se; she pretty much just…

Three years ago, I was in a somewhat similar position to yours. I turned 30 and had never been in a romantic relationship. I didn't mind it so much; a big part of why I had never been in a relationship is that I'm somewhat inclined to solitude by nature and didn't really have a rush on to get dating. I wouldn't end…

People still check in throughout the day, I've found. It's not like nobody's reading past the morning.

One silver lining of all of this is that the voids who made these videos incriminated themselves in such a way that there likely isn't any way for them to keep the evidence of abuse out of court. It's public knowledge now. CPS should have no legal trouble, if they do get involved, using the videos as evidence to…

This brings up a few thoughts. The least unhinged is probably the following:

The inside job angle is the only one that comes close to holding water, yeah, and it's still super-unlikely. If it only required a couple of people, it could be plausible, but multiple people spread throughout an administration where people apparently constantly see each other's communications? That would leak.
