Stop at stop signs. Do not just slow down a little. Do not blow through. Come to a complete stop and look around and be sure that there’s no one else around and it is in fact your turn to go. If I’m giving you the stinkeye from MY car because it WASN’T.

This has got to be one of the stupidest features ever put into a car.

Indeed. The fact that federal investigators are not crawling all over this is a joke. A person with principles challenges a powerful institution and he goes bye-bye, then some local cop rules it a suicide: case closed. The USA might as well be Russia, they should have just pushed him out a window to really drive home

That’s like bringing sand to the beach at this point. 

Sure, a disc is nice, but where’s the (heavily teased) sequel?

Incorrect. GARAK blew up a Romulan ambassador. Sisko then lied by omission – something which was done to save billions of lives. This was already morally ambiguous and as dark as I wanted to see a character go in Star Trek for the greater good.

So, am I the only one who is intensely annoyed that in a world with a finite supply of lithium and electronics components when ordinary people are struggling to afford an EV, companies are churning out Even More Expensive EVs that they can’t sell?

All good points. But that lighthearted tone and non-stop comedy is a spotlight that throws a scene into dark relief: the moment when Walter Donovan shoots Henry Jones.

UGH. No, wrong.

I don’t find Nate to be narcissistic or sociopathic – though his behaviour might be. Nate’s going down a path that too many young men (and indeed, people) have gone down: he doesn’t see the power he wields in his own life – he’s constantly intimidated and insecure because he feels the toxic expectations (masculinity,

If you don’t mind shelling out ~$25 there are third-party solutions for supporting a multitude of existing wireless controllers. I currently use mine to give my WiiU Pro controller a second life. But yeah, Nintendo SHOULD have offered the support natively.

It makes me sad that “Jurassic Park” didn’t make the list – if only because doing a parody song based around the sprawling Donna Summer cover of MacArthur Park is a feat onto of itself.

What I mean is that, in order to do this over and over again, you have to believe, deep down in your soul, that a person’s willingness to trust you isn’t just a reason, but a justification for lying to them, stealing from them, and taking things that aren’t yours to take. If somebody trusts you, it means they deserve

When this sort of thing of thing happens it’s hard not be extra infuriated by the constant barrage of false copyright takedowns that artists encounter online thanks to systems like YouTube’s ContentID and legislation like the DMCA. Small artists are struggling on online platforms to prove their own work is theirs.

I mean, seeing as how Affion Crockett is actually a rapper and stand-up comedian, I’d say that joke landed, with a wink.

We trust those ideas so deeply, because they’re not ours. We’re custodians, at best.

I’m troubled by the articles I’m seeing which constantly accuse Stede of “abandoning” Ed during their escape plan. They all seem to forget that Stede was kidnapped at swordpoint and led into the jungle by the insane Captain Nigel Badminton – who dies not before thoroughly delivering his withering, spittle-shooting

The ample allusions to Chuck in this episode really frame Kim and Jimmy’s actions towards Howard aptly. The destruction they wreak – tearing down a man so wholly and completely over personal and professional slights – has the same unanticipated consequence: it costs their target his life.

I feel certain that the slide ruler encased in resin is both a genuine gift from “The Boys” and also a clue to the location of the bunker. The boys didn’t attend the funeral out of fear and shame, but they made sure that there was a fitting monument to their senior engineer’s final work.
