WHAAA?! This is like finding out “Angels with Filthy Souls” wasn’t a real movie. 

I’m a hunter and I hate the NRA for not getting this. 

Another key difference is that the New Zealand gun lobby has also come out in favour of banning them, openly stating that there’s no need for assault weapons to be legal while other rifles still regulated will be adequate for hunting needs.

Liz Holmes and I were freshman dormmates at Stanford in 02-03 (Junipero, in Wilbur Hall) and she was totally unremarkable. Obviously the voice is fake but she never talked about biotech or starting a company or anything like that. She was a Human Biology major, but that was more a pre-med track than research science.…

During the time that Holmes decided to do this scam, there were LOADS of White* Silicon Valley bros poo-poohing college or secondary skilled training, basically saying that to make all this money all you needed to do is come up with a business plan and fake it; and then you could outsource the research/back office/…

You’re all reading too much into this. It’s her Batman voice.

I have a naturally high pitched voice, and when I get myself worked up it gets higher and higher until I have to pause and reset because only dogs can hear it. Then I have my professional voice. It’s a little slower and slightly deeper than my natural voice, which is high southern valley girl. My daughter mocks me…

She sounds like when you talk before you have to burp. Like when you’re constantly inhaling deeper breaths and gargling out words from the back of your throat. Like a bullfrog hiccoughing while trying to croak.

An octave is a pretty massive shift for the human voice. 

I can’t even imagine having the concentration it must have taken to constantly lower her pitch, for years.

I listened to all of The Dropout and just finished the documentary. I preferred the podcast. Every time she was on screen in the doc, I had to look away. She’s fucking creepy. She would probably stab someone with that blank look her face and then lie about how they ran into the knife. All with that fake, deadpan bro…

Gah, you’re right, I’m fixing. I should have just sold highlighter palettes.

“...hence, I assume, why...”

There’s an edit of this movie poster going around Reddit with Leo’s head replaced by Bojack’s, and Brad’s by Mr. Peanutbutter.  Brad makes an extremely convincing Mr. Peanutbutter. 

All I have to say to this Olivia Jade girl is “Ya basic”! I don’t even really know what that means, but it cracks me up every time I hear it on The Good Place.

but have you tried Yoga? how about these essential oils?

How weird is it that we live in a societal situation where tweets are relevant items in court, or are at least being presented as such? It makes sense that they are, considering the nature of libel and defamation suits, but it’s still crazy to think about.

In fact, I asked one of them, “Oh, would you two like to sit together?” and she said, “No, I like the aisle seat and he likes the window seat.” 

I will continue to need to speak for the reasonable Jew community of this country. Engel, shut the fuck up. There is positively nothing anti-Semitic about what she said. If she was talking about any other country, this article wouldn’t exist.

I blame anti-vaxxers, to be honest. There have been some high profile cases of people on planes or buses who turned out to have measles. Including a French family quarantined in Costa Rica over it and a NYC-Boston bus docking in Boston’s South Station. And a skin rash is a symptom of measles.
