The Fraternal Order of Police endorsed Trump.

I think that tells you everything you need to know about their racial politics and the racial politics of police in general in the US.

"Push back? Do you mean intentionally suppress laughter for fear of being un-PC? Heckle (thats fine BTW)? Defame? Ban? Throw stones? Chase out of town? Burn books? Worse?"

Awfully hyperbolic. You seem to think someone saying "I don't like this" is brushing up with burning books?

Because I see that as an act of free speech. Protest, boycotts, etc aren't suddenly forcing anyone to do something or preventing anyone from saying anything. It's meeting speech with more speech. The pinion of free speech principles.

But free speech has never been freedom from consequences. You can say whatever edgu thing you like but you can't expect everyone to just shut up and be fine with it.

Either you accept being edgy is going to rile people up and get you reactions or you go back to doing boring ass material. Imagining that someone not enjoying your joke is akin to a mob trying to murder you only really shows how thin skinned comedians are to any criticism. Ignore it.

And the issue of disinvitations to colleges is, again, more free speech acts. Yet somehow, unless the speech is toothless and ineffective, its a melt down by thin skinned comedians.

Look, you need to know your audience when you do a gig. You don't walk into a bar mitzvah gig and tell all your edgy antisemetic jokes then get wounded at the "PC outrage" when people get mad. Yet somehow going to a college during a rise in college activism against racism/sexism and telling your "women are shit, right?" jokes is supposed to be no issue?

And the other issue in this: colleges are viewed more and more as a services paid transaction: I'm paying thousands to this place to provide me a product. So its no wonder students feel more empowered to complain, especially when their money from activity fees is being spent on something they don't like.

Saying "you owe us $500 and we're going to use it to pay the 'Muslims are all rapists' guy to come here and talk" isn't the best way to make people feel like their money is being used with their best interests in mind.

Honestly, if you feel like protests or any act of free speech you disagree with is akin to burning books or destroying lives... Maybe you should grow a thicker skin. Everyone doesn't have to like what you say and its not some afront to your rights when they don't.

This might be reason enough to buy the HTC Vive instead.

Torture has never been a reliable source of information because by the time someone has broken and is willing to tell you what you need to know, they are willing to tell you anything you want to hear.

Which makes it really difficult to obtain accurate information.

This could make complete sense the next time Spiderman is pulled into Nightmare's world. Or maybe the Impossible Man could make it happen for one panel. Maybe if someone silly held the infnity guantlet. Or the Scarlet Witch tricked us into thinking Spiderman was turned into a funky light show top.

All you need to know is that this is plausible.

SJW = "social justice warrior", i.e. someone who thinks that racism, sexism, homophobia, etc, are bad things.

The fact that it is used as a pejorative by some people tells you pretty much everything you need to know about said person. Most of them are content to just be racist, misogynistic assholes, but @shang seems to think that telling people not to be a complete fuck knuckle is somehow on a par with actual terrorism (ya know, murdering people, setting them on fire, that kinda thing).

That takes a special level of stupid.

I'm happy to live a whole country away from your kind of judgement and justice. I'm not trying to be rude, but you let personal judgement cloud your vision and miss-represent the facts.

I know I'll never change your mind, nor will I try to. But you need to know what your statements sound like to others around you.

Sorry to hear about your family, I hope they are alright. I too was in an accident with my kids six months ago. Physically, they were fine, but my son is still shaken as he sees the car hit ours over and over, in his mind as it crashed into his side of the car against his door. An accident is a scary thing and sure sobers up a person. but sometimes, you need to slow down and breath. We don't think clearly when we let the adrenalin rule our thoughts.

Hmm, i don't know if it is that.. I see this all the time too (i tutor and do support to one 3D design software). Usually it is more about the person not knowing the right terms; they don't know what questions to ask or how to identify the problem, the steps that we "computer literate" know to do when we encounter a problem.

Fortunately we have screencaps, allthou often you need to teach them how to make them. I usually try to be thorough, even thou it means spending a lot of time explaining, trying to show them the way for them to solve the problem..

But then again, my "clients" are not totally illiterate which makes it a bit easier but then again, 3D design has very special concepts and terms you need to know; you just can't say "your UV mapping is screwed" when they hardly know what a vertex is.. So you have to explain the very basics of it to solve a problem that takes about a minute if they would send me their models.. I do make them all watch about an hour of videos and read few pages, very often they figure it out once they understand the logic and know the basic terms; they can use google to find it out then.. Teach a man to fish type of strategy.

But it's not that they have some mental defect, they just don't know how the freaking machine works, they have no other words to use but vague, totally gibberish. And they are afraid of using some term they are not 100% sure if it's the right one, a bit like talking a strange language.

NASA. Pssh. Only a bunch of left-wing uber-liberal hippy mumbo jumbo comes out of them.

There's a very vocal 1% of scientists and 100% of republican politicians that say the climate isn't changing or is only changing for the better.

Besides, it's hot on Mars isn't it?! And that planet seems fine. That should tell you all you need to know!

Don't let the fear-mongers scare you into saving water or believing in climate change. It's a big conspiracy, just like the moon landing and 9/11.

Most of the models we drew in early college were older people, a really fat guy with a strange inverted penis, a black lady with an Asian dragon tattoo, a guy with one arm shorter than the other (we were told not to mention the arm and to try and draw it like a normal arm), a ripped Hispanic guy, a black guy with a pretty big dick, and, wow, the first time they let in a young attractive woman, I was so red in the face.

I was just used to drawing people I was not attracted to. My girlfriend at the time took life drawing, figure drawing, life sculpting, and human anatomy for the artist classes with me every semester so she totally noticed my reaction and was a little flustered by my obviousness. Ahhh, those were the days.

It's actually more fun and interesting to draw older and fatter people. You learn more about the skin and how it changes with varied bodies and age, similar to the draped cloth exercises in a regular old drawing class.

Don't get me wrong, drawing attractive models is awesome, but you don't get as much out of it as a progressing artist. You need to know varied forms, not just the acceptable Hollywood bodies which most people are NOT.

A must-see, well paced, and very enjoyable interview.

Anyone who has been holding on to the idea that Brand is just a loud mouthed, self indulgent attention whore, needs to invest 15 minutes in this video.

If you can still maintain that opinion after viewing it, then you need to know (because you can't see it); YOU are part of the problem.

My respect for Brand has been on the increase for quite some time now, and this interview just confirms my suspicions... This is simply an inherently GOOD man, who is just trying to become an even GOODER man.

Duh...I am real slow sometimes. I just noticed the "HuffPost". Anyway do you need to know anymore about what position they take? Like just about every other media they should just go ahead and add an "Al Jazeera" to their names and mastheads.
