Imagine for a moment that you are an intelligent and self-sufficient Martian living in a plush, temperature-controlled trailer home somewhere amid the vast frozen plains of that lonely red planet. Also imagine that through the miracle of advanced Martian technology, you have Internet access"it ...
First they came to ruthlessly pillage the comic-book world, so I suppose it’s only natural"in their inimitably unnatural way"that the social-justice warriors would also lay siege to the dark, musty, Cheeto-scented world of video games. I was unaware of “Gamergate” until ...
Jenny McCarthy, easily the finest female specimen ever to appear on estrogen-addled daytime-TV squawkfest The View, recently upset the eternally offended Gay Lobby by insinuating what most of the Western world has insinuated for decades"that Hillary Clinton has a taste for female flesh. Even ...
