The entire transaction network for bitcoin is intentionally designed to require an absurd amount of electricity and be slow to verify transactions, for security reasons. It’s one of many stupid things about it. The entire thing uses more electricity than the country of Argentina, and the electricity cost per bitcoin…

Whatever Musk’s past deeds and intents, if he actually manages to make cryptocurrencies collapse (and, ideally, the art not-fungus bullshit with them, please), I’ll go as far as raising a drink to him, for real, in real life.

There were plentiful screenshots. The fact that Teigen tweeted that stuff is not in any doubt.

Notice how Chrissy Teigan, a goddamn adult and a horrible person based on these tweets and DM’s, is completely ignored, while Stodden is the one being picked apart.

A lot of teenagers are kind of horrible. Their brains just aren’t done cooking. Not that we should free them from all consequences, but there’s a reason teenagers aren’t treated the same way adults are. 

It’s being used in this thread right now, so it wouldn’t surprise me.  “They deserve what’s happening to them because they were too sexy, wealthy, and are personally unpleasant” is a fucked up take, but here we are

I remember absolutely nothing about these people from when it was apparently a thing, but it appears that a teenager was sexually abused for years, while in the public eye, because of a bizarre loophole where a child being sexually abused by an old man isn’t illegal if the child’s parents give the abuse their…

But how much blame can you lay at the feet of a person who cannot legally consent to getting their ears pierced or to smoke cigarettes because they are not fully functioning beings?

Hatch’s plans didn’t work out just because they were nefarious, they worked out because it didn’t occur to anyone that you could be nefarious.

I hope whichever corporate committee that paid for this article is satisfied.

Some parts of the gene pool are shallower than others. Just sayin’

Turkish building contractors do not have a great reputation for high quality, to say the least.  Unfortunately, this is on display after every earthquake in the country.

Ah yes, my favorite part of owning a castle: looking out my window and seeing thirty identical castles, the closest one being mere feet away. Truly the height of luxury.

“The tiny princess is in another tiny castle!”

I worked at a thrift store for years, and almost all of our resellers were low income people. It’s a lot of work for a small margin, and frankly if you’re already affluent it would not be a good hustle.

Someone walks up to you and says “I will give you a cookie if you look up that girl’s skirt”.

There’s the idea, and then there’s the implementation. The last season in some benny hill fast forward shattering all sense of geographical, temporal and psychological progression. Plus, the endorsed fantasy clichés that did also contribute to the series success : the tits-and-gore shock value that established Game of…

A Mainland Chinese developer is being insensitive to indigenous cultures? Water is wet people, water is wet. 

Tell your friend to speak out online, and let’s see where this goes

Certainly not defending Whedon’s abusive awfulness, but that’s not even close to true regarding what he and Snyder have put on screen over their careers. Whedon is reprehensible because of his abusive nature, his faux-feminist output hiding a megalomaniac misogyny. He was well aware of the charade he was creating.
