That first link had Ad Herpes, and it was flaring up hard.

“Well, why do you keep calling me Katniss?”

“Your sister calls you Katniss.”

“She’s calling me ‘Cat Anus’ because she’s a little shit. My name is Tammy.”

Yay! More leverage for the wealthier congress people and lobbiests who will support the less wealthy!

Goochie goochie

Depends. Intentionally omitting information in order to mislead? That’s a lie. Simply not mentioning something? Or not mentioning it because it’s embarrassing for you or someone else, because you didn’t think it was relevant, or because it’s not their business or not your business to share? Not really a lie. Not in the same way anyway.

I doubt it. This weird prudishness seems to be new. I can see them being dodgy about processing payments for weed stores as it’s still illegal federally. But they’re not acting like this has anything to do with the law. Restricting games sales in Steam that includes adult material, and kickstarter contributions for Adult projects had nothing to do with crime. And it’s no coincidence that it’s happening at the same time that states and some countries are requiring invasive data collection for age verification for visiting adult websites. There is a concerted political right wing effort to push prudish restrictions on everyone by any means possible.

Why aren’t payment processors required to be neutral like internet providers and telecoms? You just process a payment between two consenting parties for legal goods and services. Why should you get to restrict the types of goods and services that pass through you?

Probably doesn’t help that this is the first I’ve heard of it.

I think he’s more or less neurotypical. His quirks seem largely to be an intentional act to throw off his suspects and make them underestimate him.

Are we counting early Columbo’s cigarettes as his addiction? Cuz otherwise I think he fits the bill

Boooooo

What?

Those are definitely not two left feet. That is a left and a right foot.

Oh it would be career ruining. But I’m still surprised at the restraint of all of them. That someone hasn’t boiled over (yet) is impressive.

At that point I’d rather GabeN have control over the PC Games market than say, Microsoft, because we can see the result of their work.

Centralized money and power in one person is ALWAYS a bad thing, even if they are smart, benevolent, and generous. Even if the results in this one instance are ok, they are part of the same system that allows for all of the other oligarchs and capitalists to have obscene unitary power over people. We shouldn’t ever allow the values and whims of one person have sway over millions. Period.

And Gabe is a human being. He will age and retire. Or he will die. His views may change. Then what happens? History is full of successors to kind just kings being cruel and unjust. Being ok now is not a guarantee of the future. Better to get rid of the system than to prop up the occasional good guy of the system as an example of it working.

How has no reporter told him to go fuck himself to his face? Way more restraint than I’d have.

The self serving, backwards, hateful, idiotic, conspiracy theorist wacko isn’t a trustworthy political ally. No shit?

Where you need to, and their broken clock happens to align for good, use the anti-Trump Republicans for their votes. But never ever trust them. They’re not your friends and they will fuck you at the first opportunity.

This could be my wife. All of her coworkers and employees constantly give her their life stories in gritty detail. She is always appalled by the amount they tell her, but… she doesn’t ask them to stop.

The woman loves drama that she isn’t involved in. Internal drama stresses her out, but other people’s drama is just her reality tv shows come to life. Everywhere she has ever worked, inevitably her favorite coworker is the grumpiest person in the office who has no filter about everyone else in the office.

Actually, at this very moment, she is scrolling through people posting on a facebook group who are angry that this local doctor just got fired “out of nowhere”. In reality, we know the full story. He was fired for harassing and disparaging every woman in the clinic with a bunch of sexist shit, driving at least 3 to quit, and for massively overprescribing pain meds to a ton of people and trying to get other (women) physicians to write his scripts for him to take the liability off of himself. He’s a real scumbag. Half of the people in the threads are his patients who have been getting their fix from him, though, so they are talking about what a great doctor his is. She keeps sending me screenshots.

Reese’s flavored Oreo flavored Reese’s were pretty mid. Reese’s flavored Oreo flavored Reese’s flavored Oreos are pretty fire tho.
