What exactly is she hoping to get out of suing the pilot’s estate? I feel like it’s in poor taste, when you presumably have an enormous fortune, to sue the (presumably significantly less well-off) family of the deceased, not when you’re already suing the employers of the pilot. 

What is the point of that suit? The pilot is dead. There is no one left to punish for bad acts. What is this for?  “Justice”? There is no justice. There will just be money.  

I mean, just off the top of my head there’s that other big soccer game. PES, right? And there are other types of video games (I just started this really obscure one, Witcher 3 - you probably haven’t heard of it, but it’s not bad so far. These CD Projekt Red guys might have a future if they keep it up), there are…

Miss Congeniality (the movie, not the award) is definitely the best thing to come out of the beauty pageant phenomenon.

That was a really messed up thing to do. The people working at the visual effects companies do their best with the time and the story/character briefs they get from the creatives and the producers.

So hypothetically speaking, let’s say that using a racial slur is wildly out of character for this gentleman. That means that he got so angry* about not being able to sit in the front seat that he used a term that he finds completely inappropriate in any normal circumstance. So maybe along with working on not being…

IANAD, but it was my distinct understanding that drowning and strangulation are two of the most difficult, involved ways of killing another human being, precisely because you’re fighting another human’s strongest autonomic nervous system response: to inhale and exhale. If they pass out, and you let them out of the…

Shoot, I have the overdrive app on my phone so I don’t even need to carry the Kindle around. It’s perfect for bus reading.

But how will everyone know what a high-brow-intellectual-Russian-literature-reading genius he is if people can’t see the cover of the book he’s reading!?

To all book murderers: GET A FUCKING KINDLE (or other e-reader). Most public libraries have digital editions (although let’s not get started on how publishers are throttling access) which means FREE and PORTABLE.

Apparently she wants us to perceive that losing professional connections and respect for because she worked for a convicted and unrepentant pedophilia sex trafficking rape arranging rapist, who continued to rape children after finishing the slap on the wrist sentence he received thanks to his powerful friends, is…

Ah yes, the party of small government... How about being an active parent instead? If you want to shelter your kids, fine (I mean, not cool, but it’s their prerogative), but don’t pull other people into your bullshit.

Are they going to set an age at which you may freely choose to read a thing?

This article doesn’t really capture likely ways this would happen, I think.

You know what’s really unsettling? His victim not reaching adulthood, let alone her twilight years. Save your compassion for someone who deserves it.

There really needs to be a different word used to describe the unserious vanity wanks of weirdo nobodies running for office. In no meaningful way was this ever a campaign.

I’m no right-winger, but I think this is a much more complex issue than has been perpetuated. Conservatives aren’t the only ones protesting this issue, though their (underlying, prejudicial) reasoning is certainly unique.

You do realize that a dumb fuck hillbilly calling someone like Obama the N-word is still really shitty and racist even though the power dynamic is not in his favor right? You really can’t be as dense as your responses make you look. Your fanboi status with Gervais is really something else. Punching down isn’t about…

In the days leading up to the 2020 Golden Globe Awards, Ricky Gervais seemed to have learned from the criticism he received for his recent transphobic jokes. But the lesson wasn’t “Try to avoid jokes about subjects you don’t understand.” It was more about imagining future persecution for the sake of avoiding it. In…
