I’m not saying this is a good example of moral consistency, I just object to the idea that the Right wouldn’t say we eat ourselves without the times it’s just hysterics. They would. The validity or invalidity of the scandal doesn’t matter as far as that goes.

People say the Left eats itself when we call out literally anything because the Right doesn’t understand the concept of holding yourselves to your own standards. Sometimes people freak out over a character’s skin being drawn a percent lighter than canon, but you hear “the Left eats itself” every time there’s any kind…

It’s counter-intuitively easier to nail cops for this stuff because there’s so much less potential ambiguity to muddy the issue. You can’t argue the cards looked like they were reaching for a gun.

As quotable as that is, it’s hard to ignore he was saying it about Brandon Teena.

That is unironically what a growing number of the mask-off GOP base is calling for, yes.

That’s completely true, which is why the law isn’t the problem. And by “the law”, I mean - this - law. Obviously there are many others that are horrifyingly oppressive and harmful, but abusing this one requires willful distortion.

And my point is, do you want the police to arrest people when they DON’T think a law was broken?

“We think you did it so we’re charging you for doing it” is how laws work, my pal.

Something I’ve struggled with in the past is playing a kind of Russian roulette with pills, where I would take enough to make me very sick but not enough that it’d for sure kill me. It would always make me feel a lot better in the moment because I could tell myself I was (probably) (maybe) going to die but then still…

I was going to suggest Fast & Furious, but apparently he first showed up in the fifth movie in that series.

There’s a Mitchell & Webb sketch about them planning out which sketches will be hits and misses. Because they have to. Because it’s a sketch show.

Sounds like it.

But the Disney story I recall hearing was it pissing Walt off and him ordering it to stop. I’m not trying to contradict you, but it shows that Disney was at least at one point in time explicitly forbade it.

I’m actually really happy about it, not for Kotaku, generally, but because I can get pretty badly triggered by articles being recommended from Jezebel and The Root. Now, instead of “(horrible thing) happened”, it’s “check what horrible thing just happened”, and that’s easier to ignore.

This was common among at least Nickelodeon animators, possibly others. Rugrats also has an insane and disgusting joke storyboard sequence that’s been known for as long as I can remember. Interestingly, I always recall hearing about it in terms of “this is vile, but served a useful function in providing hard-working…

The victim’s book is literally titled “I’m Glad My Mom Is Dead”. Like, literally. It’s insane you think anyone is cutting the mother slack just because she’s a woman.

It’s a mod, doing several different things the original Doom can’t and adding things like original enemies and animations.

I’m honestly not sure what you think the appropriate vengeance is here, and I say that as someone who’ll laugh about the submarine all day every day. They - not even them, really, a third party - mistakenly used fanart and are paying the artist for it. Where do we go from here?

The Disney shit is scaring donors away as well. Trump accidentally bumbled his way into being an object of worship to people infested with brainworms and DeSantis has been desperately trying to replicate that by biting the hand that typically feeds conservatives. For years, it’s been understood that corporations would…
