it’s not irresistible and the people who do dumb stuff just haven’t learned restraint.

Just want to point out Compulsive Sexual Behavior Disorder (CBSD) is somewhat recognized depending on who you ask. The topic of sex addiction is a bit controversial and I believe usually gets lumped in with gambling addiction. This doesn’t really invalidate what you said, just tries to add some context around why people might be driven to self-destructive actions like that.

Redacted or recanted? One of these is definitely preferable to the other in this context.

Coincidentally, it’s also about to be 18 in age

It’s a little bit different in Korea. You notice it even more if you watch newer K-dramas. They’ve (mistakenly? Unintentionally?) started calling what you’d normally consider a latte an americano. It’s become extremely trendy at cafes to offer americanos that are definitely not just espresso and water.

This is a man who didn’t believe Lesotho was a real country. Odds are someone suggested this place and he thought it was a “wink wink nudge nudge” way of saying they’re going to disappear these people.

Lead might also be the lead of our time again, if the reports about lead being in disposable vape pens are true.

IIRC a portion of the registration profit goes to LGBT advocacy organizations.

The domain names also tend to be surprisingly cheap, from what I’ve seen.

Sounds kinda similar to how Wikipedia was approached by instructors. I remember an English teacher proudly proclaiming she had participated in a “Kill Wikipedia” seminar at a convention. Just a few years later, they’re instructing students on how to properly use Wikipedia as a starting point and not a primary source.

Just in case you didn’t know, Cara Cunningham is not a dude.

Mostly unrelated, but holy shit, it’s taken me about a decade to realize that’s why the play is called M. Butterfly and this comment just did it. I just never really thought about the title, but the ambiguity makes sense.

TIL that’s also the guy on the “hot fries” bag in the grocery store.

Every time I see him with his kid, I can’t help but think of the Insufferable comic where the dude’s got baby body armor

On the other end, you’ve got billionaire Jeff Lawson rescuing The Onion from private equity hell. I count their revived print subscription as one of the best things I’ve spent money on recently, considering it used to be free.
