Wait, why did Twitter shut down Vine?

Because no one was using it. People were using Twitter's video embedding instead. Also, it became obsolete once Twitter gained the ability to embedd video.

While it was a very creative tool, business wise it had some problems

Ah. That's not as salacious a reason as I was hoping.

Is that a joke? Just when I think it's not, I think it is.

It's totally not a joke.
They're making an extremely decadent coffee table book containing nothing but pictures of Apple products and selling it for 67 cents per page.

I just had a conversation (on the internet) with someone who claimed to be a lawyer (I don't believe him, see if you can tell why) where he originally said that Lawrence v. Texas was an inevitable outcome of Griswold, so RBG and Breyer deserve no credit as pro-gay for voting correctly in it, and then later said that assisted suicide could never be found to be legal as an extension of griswold because suicide is a crime, and Griswold has nothing to do with crimes.
Now, the number of problems with that are legion, starting with the fact that "Griswold v. Connecticut" means it was about Griswold being tried for a fucking Crime, (I mean, maybe in a specific kind of civil case, pre-Scalia being a shit, but even then you would probably get a state agency or agent caption,) How the fuck do you argue, within 10 minutes of each other, that decriminalizing gay sex is an inevitable extension of griswold, but that decriminalizing suicide can't be because it's about decriminalizing?

To be fair, I'm sure I could find Supreme Court rulings that made as much sense as that.

Well I mean, sure, but Scalia is lying. This guy was just an idiot.
Which was another criticism I gave, before he went mega stupid. If you think the Supreme Court does law without politics, you are ignorant as fuck about the Supreme Court.

Meanwhile in Russia: Hunger Games edition. And yes, this is the real idea he has. However there's been no new information since November, so hopefully it has been canned.

This seems to be a case of hype.
"Everything is allowed. Fighting, alcohol, murder, rape, smoking, anything.”
Somehow, I think the worst thing the contestants would get up to would be smoking.
But while the show’s own rules are that absolutely anything goes, Russian criminal laws will still apply if contestants do end up turning savage.
So, yeah. Killing fellow contestants won't prevent you from winning, but if you do you'll go to a Russian prison for a rather long time.
This is the Al Capone's Vault of reality TV shows.

Oh, I'm 100% sure it's hype. Pyatkovsky pinky swore that he's about to square everything with law and tv networks by the end of November, and there was absolutely no new information about the show for a month now.
I think the worst thing contestants might possibly get up to would be being eaten by a wolf.

I just learned (although it happened in November) that in its continuing efforts to destroy all joy, 2016 claimed the life of Joe Dever, author of the much-loved Lone Wolf gamebooks. Sadface times.

She was 99. I think we can forgive that one.

And, apparently, on life support for the last five years. If it were me, I'd have died in 2011 at 94, because fuck 5 years of life support.
