Watched seven episodes of Star Trek: Discovery. It's a lot worse than I was lead to believe. I've dropped it now. I do not recommend it whatsoever.

Boooooooooooooooooooooooo. :P

I enjoyed it and waiting for series 3.

For a show that supposed to be 10 years before Kirk it's a little too far fetched.

Y'know, I'm a little surprised that RuneFest tickets are as cheap as they are.

idk, 1 persons cheap is anothers pricy, cheap maybe having insider knowledge by knowing someone at the company or possibly a friend of a friend, maybe an online date or something of that nature but if you ask me, a true runescaper would not worry about prices and pay whatever it costs to breath the same air as their idols.

one of these days i will shock the nation and chain myself the the main gate, even if it is to allow the people who pay laugh and point.

@Sal - That makes more sense than blaming video games.

Sounds pretty fanatical. Could I ask where you got those stats from?


For all homicides:

For all mass murders:

According to stats, 1/4 of the causes for mass shootings are due to mental illness, the other 3/4 are because of perceived political opponents - and that some people just want to watch world burn and cause the maximum possible carnage they can muster with what options are available to them.


I want to say it baffles me how the USA is today with regards to gun violence but it doesn't take a genius to work out the root causes, but political corruption is at the heart of it and that's why nothing is done. Instead, fingers are pointed elsewhere such as the game industry.

It's staggering how much influence the NRA has to lobby for gun rights and fight against things like stricter background checks when the vast majority of Americans based on polling are in favour of it - so much for democracy!

Tumblr was apparently just sold for three million United States Dollars. Before that it sold for over a billion. I guess that means that the ban on adult material was worth most of its value?

I wonder what the new owners will even be doing with it.


Wowwww, $3 million?! That's NOTHING.

Interested to see what this means... do you know who bought it?

Automattic Inc., the owner of WordPress.


Oh wow, so they're probably going to make it more serious and legitimate.

There were a lot of people speculating that some adult/pornography company would buy them.

Yes, indeed. According to Automattic CEO Matt Mullenweg, the adult-content ban will stay in place.
