For a second I thought this was the “game devs share footage of their unfinished work” post Read more

Yesterday, today, tomorrow, Susan Collins will always do as she is told. Read more

I forgot that I switched my Gawker login over to my Google account. It had been on my Facebook, which I nuked years ago. As for the greys, my guess is something happened during a Kinja update a while back. Who knows. Read more

This isn’t a case of clocks being right twice a day. This about an asshole being an asshole all day. Read more

You would think D-Wade would have a greater appreciation of unplanned things Read more

I am going to enjoy watching Susan Collins burn, just like I loved watching Arlen Specter go down kicking and screaming. She’s the real victim, of course. All you people are being so unfair to moderate Susan Collins who is just trying to moderately moderate the moderate Senate for the moderate people of Maine. Tsk… Read more

He’s not a terrible driver, but Sergio gets much more out of the car. Enough that Stroll still looks like he got his ride only because of his father. Unfair perception, maybe, but not much out there to knock it down. Read more
