I just wanna add what's so brain-breaking about THIS mass shooting is not just the higher death count, but the shooter. Usually we have a neat little set of boxes for the media to put the murdering man men in:

Unabomber - crazy rear end manifesto, lived in a cabin in the woods
Columbine - high school kids bullied plot their revenge
Sandy Hook - disturbed young man with mental health issues
Dylan Roof - white supremeicst trying to start a race war
San Bernadino - radicalized muslim
Pulse nightclub - radicalized repressed gay muslim
Las Vegas - retired rich white accountant?

Lets play one of these things is not like the other.

Watching the interview with the brother...the murderer for 99% of his adult life was the cool rich uncle who would treat your family to an expensive dinner then go jet-setting around the world on a whim. I can think of a dozen people like that I know in my own life who I love to hang out with and if one of them went on a shooting spree tomorrow I'd have the same exact reaction. But unless some brain tumor, crazy rear end manifesto or diary turns up, he may as well have woke up one morning and decided he was bored and wanted to go out murdering 60 people.

The brother is the most sane person I've seen on tv in a while and I would love to have a beer with him and never bring up the massacre.

making GBS threads on GG because the characters are all awful people misses the entire point of the book. it's not even subtle about how awful everyone in the story is supposed to be and the author's contempt for them is a bunch of flashing neon lights.

You can get the point and not enjoy it or find it brilliant. To me all of the characters mechanically dragged the morality play forward with zero emotional investment with the same pathos as reefer madness. Don't resent or mind people liking the book, but it's a little much to bring the torches for disagreeing.

nah if the federal government bails them out on the bonds, that's 100% good for PR. If bondholders get hosed somehow in it, oh well, gently caress bondholders vultures.

yeah but that's not what that Vice article was. You can criticize the book all you want, just don't miss the entire point of the novel while doing it. That idiot author of the article thought it was portraying everyone in a good light, as good people we should like instead of awful people to be hated.

You know, at some point, I'd really like someone to ask Donald Trump what exactly his ideal news world would look like? Would there be multiple news outlets? Would it just be FOX and Friends on 24/7?

There would be dozens and dozens of outlets that praise him 24/7 on how good of a big boy Donald is.

Holy poo poo, I just noticed there are only like 5 guys in the entire picture.

edit - on a recount, I think it's like 7, but one of those guys is the guy who comes halfway into the frame next to the 2 guys in front.

I assume cernovich is related somehow. If no fapping builds your masculine essence, blowing all your friends should make you an immortal cum vampire.

a long time ago i watched a vice video where they sent a stoner kid who looked like he weighed 110lbs deep into the amazon to try a drug where you burn yourself and then rub a poison frog on the wound—he spent the whole video complaining, getting bit by thousands of mosquitos, and then the frog thing just made him nauseous and he laid down for a while. I haven't really visited VICE since

I'm on chrome. I don't know what the gently caress.
I do think I still have the SA last read extension which may be causing this now that I think about it.
