gamejournos:
Chris Davis of (but not representing) HookedGamers got in touch with me yesterday to share his thoughts on this Kotaku article about the current Korea crisis. He’s given me permission to reproduce this email here and has said that he doesn’t mind whether or not he’s credited. Personally I…

Now that I know I’m not alone, I think I’m ready to have children.

It has come to my attention that under a 1979 North Carolina Supreme Court ruling, someone who begins to have sex can at no time during intercourse make the decision to stop. Even physically restraining the non-consenting partner, causing injuries, does not qualify the act as rape.
In effect, this decision legalizes rape.
This egregious violation of...

Yes, Fox News, you are inciting violence. And if...
Zero of the hosts, anchors, or commentators on Fox News have called for violence or the assassination of President Barack Obama. Yet, so many of us feel like the Tea Party is violent not-too-deep-down, and we feel like Glenn Beck is inciting that inner-violence. Why?

I agree with @billmaher’s assessment of the false balance perpetuated by the Rally for Sanity.

Why I fear religion.
To begin, I should say that I don’t hate any one on a personal level and I don’t hate anyone because of where they come from or what they look like. Really, I don’t hate. I simply love rationalism and the values of western culture. Specifically freedom of speech, assembly, religion, and the equality of all humans under the law.
These things are not provided for under any...
