Hey, speaking of websites that the UK should block, police trying to stop the riots are currently being prevented from doing their job properly due to spam from 4channers. And what's worse, I had to find out about this on Know Your Meme of all places.

Is Rogan really such a big deal that his opinion could swing the election? I always got the impression that he was on the fringe even back when he was that guy with no strong opinions one way or the other about anything. A fringe moderate, if you will.

I suppose in the right hands, it could have ended up like Guardians of the Galaxy. I've always gotten the same vibe from the Borderlands games that I got from those movies, a mix of try-hard quirky humor and supposedly-ironic dudebro energy. Personally I find that vibe hard to stomach at the...

Maybe not right this exact moment, but I bet that photo was taken in California.

"Too big to rig." Damn, wish we'd come up with that one.

Oof. Who's old and tired now, old man? Really looking forward to him bringing this same lack of energy to the next two debates.

It's both-sides-y because this is actually a situation where both sides are being awful and it's the right thing to do to condemn them.

Mistaking something you stumbled across that's years old for something that was just posted is a tale as old as the internet... or at least as old as the internet having stuff that's years old. I remember a PSA comic about all the dumb mistakes people make on the internet, and that one was...

Not half as bad as I was expecting from the description. The dude who asked probably won't even consider it an unsatisfactory answer. I was expecting either a complete non-answer or even saying that his kids aren't working hard enough.

In hindsight, that was a stupid way to deal with the phone monopoly, because all it did was make a bunch of smaller regional monopolies. We should have gone with the other option that was on the table, nationalizing the phone system.

Yeah seriously that just makes him better in my opinion. Think about how many Democrats supported the war before they were against it; it sounds like he opposed it from the start. I mean, jeez, even Trump condemned the Iraq War at one point. I thought we were pretty much settled on this, like...

I'm not sure how much that would help. It's not like Google is going to spin up its own competitor to YouTube; they literally already tried that in the 2000s and it failed miserably, and there's a reason none of the other big players in the tech industry have tried since. Android could be...

Let me guess, one's ex-army and the other's an ex-marine so each of them considers the other to have only been a "fake" soldier? I get that rivalry between military divisions is something the government did on purpose to try to avoid the chance of a coup, but egad is it the dumbest jive when...

In a rare bit of good news, it's been ruled that Google has an illegal monopoly on internet search. Well, I say good news, but I'm not really sure what that's going to mean for them going forward. It sounds like they might be forced to cut off their arrangements with other companies where they...

You know, this is shaping up to be an absolutely wild election year. My whole life I'd read in the history books about things like presidents dropping their old vice presidents and getting new running mates, ex-presidents losing elections but then running again afterward, and presidents choosing...

Lucky for him, Trump's base thinks of him as an immortal god-king, so the idea of him dying from anything ever is preposterous.

Yeah, sometimes I wonder if it's had the opposite effect the creators intended. It's so pervasive that we've gotten comfortable with the idea.

I don't know where the line is. But anyone who'd be willing to get in bed with him now is living in a post-insurrection world. They already know what Trump demanded of his second in command last time, and has to consider the very likely possibility he would demand something similar again...

Now I'm imagining it becoming a built-in feature of the site. Knowing Musk, he'll probably be adding it to the to-do list as soon as he gets wind of the idea.

Why did the National Association of Black Journalists even invite Donald Trump to be present at their convention?
