Wasn't Daniel Stern willing to stop robbing the house because there's a kid? I trust the guy who does property damage over the one who's dead set on terrorizing and torturing a kid.

It reminds me of that story where a robber steals a car, then when he notices there's a kid in it he turns the car around to chastise the parent for leaving the kid inside. Don't be a thief, but if you are don't torture kids.

The most illegal alien. Smallville had an episode where Clark helped hide an undocumented migrant. His mom tried to chastise him and he had to remind her his own paperwork is shady as hell.

Don't put the squeeze on the voters. They either didn't vote for trump, or they were so dumb that they did vote for trump won't understand why their electric bill went through the roof.

The whole point of democracy is the voters have an impact. If nothing changes for the voters don't be surprised when they vote for the same party next time.

When did he defend Nazis?

People use the word incel to the point of irrelevance. If you're having sex you're not involuntarily celibate.

Folks online were calling Henry Cavill an incel a while back. If these guys were celibate it would be by choice. If you're trying to criticize them in other ways, why not use the right words?

He's posted way weirder stuff than this.

Every major Internet site should be. Why do TV ads get vetted by the FCC and Internet ads don't? A growing portion of the population doesn't even watch broadcast TV anymore.

I don't think they do.

Astronauts do not get overtime or holiday/weekend pay. They get paid for a 40-hour work week, i.e. their regular salaries. - NASA spokesperson

It's definitely fake. The screenshot is from around the 4:37 timestamp.

Hot Take: next time someone speaks for as long as Adrien Brody while saying nothing they should have Will Smith approach the stage.

The security argument is a lie, I think. I think websites like Netflix like these features so it's difficult to approach copying a video.

If security were an issue I don't think you'd be able to copy text to the clipboard in situations where you can't screenshot.

Janeway: "half of my crew can be terrorists"

I used to hate the weekly model when streaming became popular, but I think people are better viewers when they watch weekly. It's easier to have ongoing water cooler conversations about each episode, so your show gets consistent buzz. Plus you don't have the extreme of a whole year+ to wait between seasons. If a classic show ended in May you could start a new season in September. By the time most modern shows have new seasons, I forgot 40% of what I saw last season.

Regulations haven't even stopped YouTube from sending fake AI medical ads to your family members.

nothing will come close to the cultural impact that the original had.

That's part of the reason why I probably wouldn't recommend old trek first to somebody. We don't have the benefit of being able to go back to the cultural moment of the '60s Trek.

I compare it to how Wizard of Oz is a great movie, but you can't really experience the transition to color that happened in the movie the same way someone in 1939 did. Plenty of TV shows were still in black and white all the way into the '60s.

My macroecon book, which was written by a guy from the Bush administration, hit us over the head with that concept.

It's strange to thing that he'd be considered a pariah by his party's leadership now.

I don't think we can conclude it's 0 from what she wrote. He says he pays Ashley 500k a month and a flat 2.5 million. She says he stopped paying most of it.

I'll assume he's being less than honest because of specific credibility issues. If she's being honest, she gets 250k hard maximum a year. My guess is it's actually something like 100k. That amount, while survivable, seems very ungenerous for the richest man in the world and it's enough of a drop from 500k that you would definitely be forced to change your purchases.

EDIT: huge error. misread per month as per year.

Dude caused a dip in US GDP

That seems implausible. Do you have a source for that? or is that just exaggeration?

Based on the interview, it's easier for me to believe the first option.

I think someone showed him the annotated picture and that person never believed he'd think the ms13 was literally part of the tattoo. Once he asserted it, who in his camp is going to tell him he's wrong?

It's a good thing we gave his party the majority in both houses of Congress, right?
