You should never even marginally trust billionaire philanthropy. The Gates Foundation is just a vehicle to create appreciation in Gates’ healthcare investments. He doesn’t give a damn about actual healthcare (see: Gates’ statements on COVID vaccine IP waivers)

Fuck everything about this. Democrats don’t win by obfuscating their platform. Your thought process is what has led the Democrats to suffer electorally over the last few decades. Democrats should be shouting that they support women’s rights, including abortion access, not cowering in fear hoping the GOP won’t notice…

Although this is depressing, the truth is it doesn’t really matter. Abortion is already effectively outlawed in states where there’s political will for it (i.e. the GOP controls). SCOTUS can’t do anything further to erode abortion access more than they already have. If you’re anti-choice, your bottleneck isn’t SCOTUS,…

very cool that regulators are letting these behemoth corporations swallow up more of their competition. real healthy economy we have. love it

They look like those warp pipes Mario jumps down

The Italian release of Oscar-winnning film A Promising Young Woman has been delayed...

Ellen and Chrissy are now free to team up to create the most toxic morning show in history

It’s boring but honestly the best controllers are usually just the current gen ones. I’m partial to the ‘Xbox Core’ controller myself, but the DualSense feels more premium in your hands (plus those triggers are super fun, though gimmicky)

‘Censoring’ isn’t something limited to just government action. If you’re going to get on someone’s case, you need to at least come correct.

The best part is Apple themselves were predicting only 2/3rds of iOS users would opt-out of tracking

A G/O article rephrasing a Buzzfeed article summarizing a Reddit thread. The internet really is an ouroboros of content consuming itself endlessly. 

The thing dealerships don’t want their customers to realize is that they are commodities. As a buyer, you don’t get any additional value in buying a Camry from Bob Smith Toyota over Jim Bob Toyota. Once you have your mind set on a specific model, you should blast quote request emails to as many dealerships as possible.

Honestly this is an issue in virtually every game that has a leveling/progression feature

This headline is extremely misleading. According to the FBI’s own reporting, CI crimes went down during Trump’s tenure. The phrasing in the headline makes it sound like it was significantly worse under Trump.

Looks good but wow is that demo video over the top

the rate of fraudulent transactions on Division 2 surpassed 70% and was approaching 90%.

Amazing, a Gizmodo slideshow that actually justifies its existence (somewhat; it still would have been better as a single page)

I think they just went “Each day has a 1 hour lunch. There are 5 workdays in the week. All of my lunches are working lunches.”

Sure, no one doubts there are sometimes important business lunch meeting, but it’s funny that the CEOs said every single one of their lunches was an important business meal.

The WSJ (one of Rupert Murdoch’s pro-business outlets) put out a hilarious chart showing what CEOs do in a week. It was supposed to show how hard working they are, but 45% of the time they’re doing personal (non-work) stuff and lunch.
