Ugh, the way this writer talks about women is pretty gross. I know its a piece about two of the most macho types in midcentury literature, but must the author of the article really refer to women as "conquests"?

AppNexus just fired something 14% of their staff in NYC, around 150 jobs. Mostly marketing/sales but I knew a few devs who got canned. Apparently doing some housecleaning before their IPO

Ah yes because the mainstream media censored Trump so much. I didn't see any coverage of him or his views anywhere! And I certainly didn't see the bullshit he said just simply parroted and repeated in newspaper headlines without a

So you'd rather them be impersonal and haughty? Personally I have less respect for "detached" institutions nowadays. It removes them from the concerns of their users and attendees and creates an echo chamber. I love that you

That was the impression I got as well - after all this has all the hallmarks of some Bennington grad's "social experiment" - but they went about it in the worst way possible. Rather than say satire or even their own reportage

These people are honestly scum, representing the apotheosis of cynicism in politics and media. If Facebook had any shred of credibility left they'd shut them down now after this article.

A country doctor recommended it to us. We put it through the trial and then went to the judgement. All in all it saved us a lot of money and we are hunger artists no more.

The idea of names as power comes from pre-unified Ancient Egypt in which (i may have gotten the kingdoms mixed) the upper kingdom's religious rituals included the use of secret and ceremonial names known to only an elite literate cabal
