And using the old Bell Labs flagship facility (Holmdel, NJ) for the exterior (as the transistor-shaped water tower is a very iconic image of the place).

There is this weird contingent of fans who insist that Star Wars is deeply serious, dark, and edgy, and that any departure from that ethos or aesthetic is an insult to the franchise. But Star Wars has always been goofy and weird as hell and full of silly dad humor. I mean, Emperor Palpatine, the source of all darkness…

Some of that can be attributed to the fact that it’s a chase in crowded urban streets vs. in a vast forest, but I feel you.

None of that power on screen came for free, none of it. 

They’re great little cars. I had a previous gen in manual transmission form and despite being in the base model penalty box, it was a decently equipped car. And it drove pretty well too.

Regardless of their motivations, it’s nice to see they did the kid a solid. 

They’re great everybody cars. Their new logo though is nobody’s logo. I had to Google wtf car KM was, finally figure out was Kia and thought Kia Motors, then after a little herb I saw that it actually spelled KIA. 

Yeah, give the PR guy a raise. This was probably cheaper than buying a TV ad and I’m sure will sway a lot more buyers to shop at their dealership instead. 

Nice! And a Kia Soul. I was a bit down on these cars until I got one as a rental. tl;dr they’re great. Honestly it’s a little better for a teenager than a SUV IMO

I’m sure the PR value they’ll get from this is far above what the car cost them.

Let’s not kid ourselves that this isn’t (at least in large part) an opportunity for good PR for Frank Kent MC.
 
Still, motives aside, good on them for stepping in to help out.

Frey can be seen traversing mountains at break-neck speeds as well as fashioning herself a floating skateboard to cross a river.

Io9's on an anti-Biden kick at the moment. Witness the other article they just released where they bash for Biden for “making the pandemic worse!” by not mailing everyone in the united states take-home covid tests.

It’s the big thing right now. Shit on Democrats for not instantly succeeding and then pretend they’re…

Gizmodo, the website where there is better journalism in the comments than the article itself.

I feel like this article doesn’t reflect the full picture.

The Biden administration fought in court in order to NOT to have to do this and lost.

No solution is perfect, but it seems like this article is letting the perfect get in the way of the good.

Every fucking thing you said was wrong.

Yeah, I was thinking about our monthly beach cleanups here and then felt bad because all that time pulling fishing nets, barrels and rubbish could have been better spent writing articles and creating “awareness” of fishing nets, barrels and rubbish.

No comment on this, but I do find it ironic when Youtubers or Instafamous people beg their followers for donations to a cause that they themselves could easily cover.
