I think you’re recalling an Onion article. Hang on...

British here, so the whole US gun thing is a constant ‘WTF?’ in my head. That said, I’ve always vaguely assumed that the most dangerous thing you can do as a black man in the US is own a gun.

I have to say, so far this new format isn’t working for me, and it’s not helped by some very mediocre, on the nose, writing that, at the same time, fails to land any punches. Also, those robot things made a Storm Trooper’s aim look good.

Worth mentioning that “No Exit” was almost certainly a strong influence on the whole series and concept. It’s basically a play about three people in hell, where the hell is each other’s company, rather than the usual torments...

Well, money-grabbing is kind of baked in, but that doesn’t prohibit it being decent (or shite - Beauty and the Beast, I’m looking at you).

Well, I’m hanging fire for now, because that was a terrible episode. Indifferent script, a crap monster and plot, and a nonsensical and overblown death (honestly, what did everyone think they were doing at that point?).

Boob physics + invisibility = if a tree falls...

Has anyone tried fucking an apple pie? I mean, it would be better than trying to fuck, say, water, but are you really going to get the traction you need? And wouldn’t your bell-end keep banging into the dish?

I really don’t get how it’s meant to work. I’ll stick with recently baked bread, thank you very much!

We’ll keep them in hippo crates until they get here. Hippos should be treated well; this is a hippocracy after all.

Hey, I’m sure it was all in good spirits! (and rapey)

Paltrow’s head is in the cool-box.

I hope you’re being satirical or something, because otherwise making fun of unfamiliar names is completely okay now.

“Assume” in the sense of “better safe than sorry”? Yeah, definitely.

I think her gender was probably (wrongly) the deciding factor, because - and let’s be honest - it takes a cognitive effort to recognise that, when it comes to the sexual abuse of an adolescent, gender is irrelevant.

There is a lot about this story to fill any reasonable person with disgust and fury, but this article seems weird. The “intent” of the victim is irrelevant unless you’re in to victim-blaming; the intent of the perpetrator is not.

I get that, once you dig down, that is not the message of this article, but too much smoke…

I’d happily bet the farm that the lights were on. The “it was dark” stuff is a not-so-subtle attempt to pretend his being black wasn’t an issue.

This assumes that Bezos’ wealth is somehow a natural state. He has aggressively lobbied and organised his business to maximise his profits at the expense of almost everyone else. He treats his staff like shit; he aggressively avoids tax, and yet expects all the social structures and infrastructure that allow his…

Did they forget Hawkman’s wings in that first panel?

I dunno - he’s wrong on pretty much every level, but I’m not going to rag on someone for being unwilling to toss his friends under a bus. Shit - I remember going through some pretty tortuous attempts to excuse CK when the news about him broke, and I don’t even know the guy.

“Harry Potter and the Methods of Rationality” proposes, quite reasonably, that Dumbledore is deliberately undermining and destroying Slytherin by turning the brand toxic - most notably by making Snape its Head of House.
