When buying isn’t owning, pirating isn’t stealing.

so have people been able to successfully sue casinos because gambling is addictive?

I’m tired of excusing bad parenting when the easy answer is take the computer away. Set ground rules, if the child disobeys, follow up with consequences. No addictive advertising can survive a nonexistent computer. No computer means no playing, means responsible parenting.

Imagine going blind and having the last thing you saw be a wall of monkey jpegs.

I like the improvements over years with Zombicide. The last CMON game I backed was Zombicide 2nd edition, though I haven’t played it yet. The only CMON game I was a bit disappointed in was Massive Darkness.

Thank you for coming up with this piece just to point out that the amounts that Mythic Games communicated in that update are misleading and they added other costs and shipping. For reference the 129 “contribution” ended of being 249. This is basically a new pledge, which is not right. Where did the original money go ?

Oh fuck off with that bullshit. Its clear from their history that they are under pricing their tiers to get more sales by putting riskier margins only to have the market do what it does and they then hold the backers hostage for more money. Either they pushed the kickstarter out the door before they really grasped…

Backed Darkest Dungeon and paid the extra money they asked for. In the case of Darkest Dungeon, it was communicated VERYVERY badly. Not sure if they learned their lesson, but the way they communicated it had (in my mind) caused that 20% to not pay up.

So I guess the whole idea here is to try and shake off all the negative Facebook news by being a new name?

Problem is, they haven’t actually solved any of the issues with Facebook, so it’s just going to immediately be new articles saying how bad Meta is..

I’ve watched the special multiple times and I’m not hearing where the offense is coming from. Is it because he claimed to be team TERF? How is that harmful to you or anyone else? You disagree with him, he disagrees with you. We’re entering a territory of sterilization. Actually, he kind of called out what would…

As much as I like metric, imperial feels better for medieval-ish fantasy. An old measurement for an old setting. Metric is fine in modern or future settings.

I have no problem taking the concerns of the LGBT community at face value. These are real issues. With that said, a few questions.

Where the fuck did this dumbass, self-serving idea that comedy is some sort of sacred artform beyond reproach or criticism come from?

I’m not saying this was Dave’s funniest act, but the points he made were clear. These Netflix employees did not watch through the end of Dave’s routine and also don’t understand sarcasm. Their reactions are exactly what Dave was poking fun at.

“Denzel—are you—do you feel—you know some people say Hollywood folks should stick to acting,” Couric asked.

It’s fingerprinting every single one of your pictures to compare against a database. Is that not enough of a privacy violation? 

Well he’s the host of things. You may not care for what he says but shutting up would really be the total anti-thesis of what the host is supposed to do.

The whole “Click on my article about the evils of consumerism while I collect the ad revenue” is a pretty bold stance to take. Gizmodo et al. are getting hard to read anymore with all the ads that insist on loading up.

Nope nope nope. This is what equality looks like. You don’t get free punches anymore.

This is genuine over-the-line “cancel culture” exactly the way Fox means it. I missed voting in Charlotte Yi as Gatekeeper for Good Behavior.
