to subject these people, these career professionals to a sort of public humiliation and opprobrium and then the potential of a congressional investigation

Shitty people rise to the top because they have no qualms about stepping on everyone else beneath them. In other news, water is wet and fire burns.

I use “mansplaining” when referring to my husband because I know it will annoy him when he reads this. It’s not that deep. But thank you for thinking it might have been that deep. 

Did you all come from the same place, with the same weird, fatuous demand? No, I was disappointed by this event because it’s a game I enjoy playing with my son, and on this occasion it was disappointing and anticlimactic. If I didn’t care to play it, I wouldn’t be disappointed!

No, my being disappointed by this event does not give me cause to entirely abandon a game I mostly enjoy playing with my son on a regular basis. Because I am not a binary light switch incapable of the concept of nuance.

The thing that surprises me about Biden’s Presidency so far is how little noise there seems to be at how he dodges and refuses to answer questions seemingly to the same degree as Trump with his near constant “I just want to talk about happy things” non-answer.

Listen, I get not wanting to take a loss on hardware, especially when every other attempt (barring the Index, maybe) has failed miserably.

That said, Valve has spent the last 20 years making BILLIONS off the backs of other devs/publishers, and has done absolutely fuck all because of it. They make hundreds of millions a…

Unrelated but they’ve made kinja even more of a mess (still think the aim is to slowly move towards no comments entirely).

Fuck your green water hog lawns. Where I live, lawns get green naturally and then the whole damn city turns yellow/gold in the summer because culturally we just don’t water our lawns. The rest of the country should learn from us (and our suburbs too).

Twitter was a mistake.  

I’ll never understand people who think its a good idea to take spiritual guidance from guys who look like they were coaches on the pickup artist.

He shouldn’t be executed, and he shouldn’t be tortured in prison; absolutely no one should.

IT’S PRONOUNCED CHOWDAH! SAY IT RIGHT!  I’LL KILL ALL OF YOU!

Annie is one of those artists (Grimes being another) where I wish they’d just quit in 2014 or so, where they were kinda well known enough to have buzz and kept it weird but not well known enough to seem overly pretentious and go so overboard with their bullshit to the point where I avoid them entirely now.

I got your back on Doom 3.  It’s a great game.

Fuck. Off.

ACAB no matter what country they are in.

This “tactic” of surrounding or cornering groups of peaceful protestors seems to be one of the main ways police escalate situations. We saw it all through the BLM protests, the same has been going on in Myanmar with the protests against the coup there and now yet another example.

Rocks and minerals and crystals are excellent ways to appreciate the glory of nature and the earth and geological processes and all that. But they do not have magical properties.
