Meanwhile the US politicians agreeing to send the weapons to these other rogue states are getting paid by the companies producing the weapons, and/or accepting positions with them after government.

The US government is rotten to the core and many countries, my own included, are trying their best to get in on the corrupt, rotten action.

Comedians, corporate news anchors, it's actually irrelevant who presents the issues. What matters is whether you have a reasoned, considered and coherent argument to present.

This week on when hypocrites attack.

Sexist, aggressive 'feminist' meets arguably-racist, aggressive 'men of God'.

I'm hyped about both this and Star Citizen, but this is due out *way* ahead of SC and the physics look more interesting.

Set in a 1:1 scale, scientifically-accurate (as far as possible) milky way? Near-Newtonian physics? I'm nursing a semi.

So many of these are a combination of two fucking idiots meeting at the wrong time.

Drivers going way too fast for the conditions, and oblivious pedestrians with zero situational awareness. The lady who almost got her kid cleaned up at that crossing is exhibit A.

C'mon, there is absolutely nothing wrong with cookies or icecream, provided you're not shoveling a tub of icecream or a packet of cookies down your kids several times a week.

Too much = bad. None = a different kind of bad.

I've had lectures exactly like this.

Something more Jimmy Carr-esque would have been better, like "Sir, if you want my comeback, you'll have to scrape it off your mum's teeth".

Awesome proggy jazzy jam, upvote!

No love for Toast? *beg

As the number of votes it now has would suggest, it simply didn't get noticed immediately.

The title underplays just how damned good this particular skateboarding cat is, even by skateboarding cat standards. I only watched it because it's in the top 15.

Surely by now they can suck that stuff out and replace it? Good ol' hypodermic through the eyeball?

Oh yeah, a weightloss device.
