The ones doing the violence are guilty, but so are the ones that allow systemic violence under their “care.” It’s just like bullies in schools. Our species is not that far separated from chimps or other primates despite what people like to believe. Physical / emotional domination and threat of it is how the strong get…
This is the right take. The Joker is one of the best characters in comics precisely BECAUSE he has no well defined origin. It raises him to a surreal almost mythic level. He is the opposite of Batman. Batman has an origin story we’ve all been forced to see many times over, so well defined you could cut a tomato with…
If the idea of a corporation bluffing and bullshitting about its “wokeness” on the way to billions of dollars is shocking to you, I strongly recommend you not look too closely at the politicians who do the same. It’s just one more flavor of koolaid to give the masses while shaking them down for money. The concepts are…
I love all the people who think justice in this country is something simple we can all see and explain, that makes sense, and is actual justice. I’m sure what went on here is money, the guilty protecting the guilty, and “you didn’t see anything here, just move along”
Has Google said whether Stadia’s purchase model is like Steam (pay per title) or like Netflix (pay a subscription fee with access to many titles)? People don’t seem to care much about the ownership issue in the latter case. That would truly be a game changer.
-15 years ... don’t worry, I have -20 years to wait
Inferring something about you based on something you freely gave them (your movie selections) is not stealing. It’s guessing. Even if it’s a very good guess, it’s not stealing. That’s like saying the “guess your weight” guy at the carnival is “stealing” your weight. He’s probably taking your money and giving you a lot…
I read Bad Blood and the stories of the poor saps who had to try to make her “big idea” work despite the obvious fact it couldn’t reminded me of many sw dev projects I’ve been on whipped into “we’ll do it no matter what” death marches. Folks at the top with no clue about reality yelling at saps who know it can’t be…
100% agree, this article seems to jump to the conclusion old clothing is unusable, which is stupid. You might not want to wear it, but unless it’s in shreds SOMEONE might. Donating clothes should be the first thing any one does. I can’t remember when I last had to actually throw something out.
Got radared doing 103mph in a Toyota Corolla in 1985. They gave me a $1000 fine, I think I deserved a medal. The judge asked why I did it, I truthfully told him I was testing the car. He did not like that answer.
Personal trainers can’t have grudges or be slighted? Friends never fall out?
Seems to me like if held a grudge against a celebrity I had encountered in a job, maybe I’d concoct a plan to jump him. I could really mess up his life if then I claimed he paid me for it to stage a hoax. I might even throw some hoaxy-seeming elements to amp up the verisimilitude. In the end it becomes me and my…
“her mental state was clearly not sound” is probably the reason “she gets painted as a psycho” ... maiming someone permanently is an inexcusable offense that many would put in the category of “psycho.” The abuse she suffered is also inexcusable. People in extreme circumstances will do extreme things, but that doesn’t…
Interesting video, but it seems like it boils down to:
Ralph Breaks the Internet was 100% a Disney advertisement. Incredibles 2 and Isle of Dogs were both weaker follow-ons to prior stronger animated films in the same style by the same creators. Mirai was good, but it makes you think of all the awesome anime they have ignored over the years (e.g. Your Name). Spider-Verse…
