Anonymous Wall Street sources told Politico, on condition of anonymity, that the financial sector would withdraw its support for Clinton if she picks Warren. Clinton has, like it or not, a lot of ties to major Wall Street firms.

It’s one of the few genuinely funny things StarWipe’s done.

Apparently the plan was for it to look like the website was having a mental breakdown the day before they pulled the plug, hence the headlines going up in this order:

I think he does realize it. That’s why he’s talking to the NRA and not lawmakers- it’s being blocked by legislators controlled by the gun lobby, so the gun lobby has more real power here than Obama.

A reboot is honestly exactly what the series needs. 5 and 6 were trash, and while the older games are more fun, they’re delightfully corny in a way you can’t really duplicate on purpose.

Well, the tone and everything was definitively thrown on the burning diaper dumpster fire after RE4 and RE0, so who gives a toss?

It is, but at the same time Schumer has been lying and misrepresenting her relationship with Tig in a self aggrandizing way that’s designed to make her oh so progressive and hip. She’s pretended that she’s supported Notaro and that she has this appreciation for her struggle as a lesbian comic.

If there’s anything about this that is reassuring, it’s that there are so many people trying to help that it’s creating logistical problems. Yes, those problems need to be solved, but so many people want so badly to help. Hell, it’s even pushed the gay blood ban back into the news.

They haven’t updated their engine in years and from all accounts a lot of the employees have been pushing for new tech.

Even setting aside the misogyny, it’s like middle class (especially upper middle class) white women are some kind of universal punching bag we can project our racial and class anxiety on. It’s like being a cisgendered woman who likes the occasional pumpkin spice latte makes you into some kind of judas goat who either…

Yeah. It’s like- they’re not WRONG that the Democrats used to be super racist and the Republicans used to be more progressive, it’s just that it isn’t really relevant because of how the parties realigned themselves in the thirties, sixties and eighties.

God. Disgustingly cute.

I wouldn’t dare use mine in an open space- I mean, I work off in an office (closet) so the sound is contained, but there’s a reason why mechanical switches gave way.

I wouldn’t dare use mine in an open space- I mean, I work off in an office (closet) so the sound is contained, but…

Yeah it’s basically just head shitbag in charge. I think things were more civil when they were less visible, but that’s just gossip.

I will never forgive the show for not having Mack and Fitz hook up. They had amazing chemistry.

Showrunner is a unitary role that encompasses executive producer, head writer, and a lot of duties that used to be left up to the director of a given episode. It’s not codified because it breaches boundaries between disciplines and the guild really don’t like that. It’s relatively novel outside of the US. I mean the…

Haha oh wow internet. Great job at making something simultaneously heartening and horrifying. I’m never leaving my apartment again and I’m going to live on Merlot thanks to this shit.

Tradition. Simple syrup was used to cover the toxic chemical tang of bad bathtub gin during prohibition and the British distillery taxes, so people feel the need to add it to everything.

It’s particularly telling that one of the darlings of startup culture is Peter Thiel, the right-wing billionaire who is friend to far-right extremists like Curtis Yarvin and Keith Rabois.

Someone close to them did something horrible. They did the human thing and reacted by trying to rationalize it. Since what he did is especially fucked up, the rationalizations are all the more strained and transparently fucked up.
