So, Spanfeller shut down Splinter and laid everyone off on Mental Health Day?

Seriously... They weren’t even allowed to post something about the closing of Splinter on Splinter itself? At least let us vent our frustrations somewhere other than here..

Fuck Private Equity Firms.

Fuck.

Yeah, not to mention this isn’t connecting to it by any sense of the word. It’s not even connecting to the iMac that has the Zip Drive attached, it’s using FTP over the internet.

Not even doing that, it’s just using FTP.

I see your point about how Trump is going to spin this.... I’m just mad that Splinter didn’t see fit to include what exactly went down, which ends up making many of the commentariat do the spinning themselves.

Disclosure of Top Secret classified military intelligence about Chinese missile capabilities in the South China Sea is damaging to national security. It’s revealing of our intelligence capabilities.

It was military intelligence, specifically about Chinese missile sites on those contested islands in the South China Sea.

Yeah, except the main trigger in this case was the disclosure of intelligence about Chinese missile equipment on islands in the South China Sea that was classified Top Secret. This guy is not some whistleblower, he was leaking military intel to the press.

She said she couldn’t pick pretty much anything up, as in she was referring literally to the “pick up” part of the comment and her physical disability. It’s just a weird angle to take.

I’m screenshooting this!

The “I was disabled” response to someones saying “pick up a newspaper” is mindblowing.

Is it a take when I’m being purposefully silly?

No, the *present* tense of “shot” is “shoot”

 “took a screenshot” rather than “take a screenshot” because “screenshot” is not a verb.

Counterpoint: PLEASE rely on this strategy.

I look forward to meeting you on the field of battle where we will decide this once and for all with a fight to the death. Good day, sir.

Rick Perry is gone, btw.
