Except that one time they took blood and I went blind for 5-10 minutes, that was freaky as hell...
That's called a blood trauma phobia, although from your description it seems it might be mild-moderate, so not surprising that a fainting symptom is present. |

I agree. This is very misleading and a poor choice of words.
Blue can you clarify the headline?
Because reading the line following it certainly is confusing...
"saying the full version of the lifestyle simulation sequel will be playable for free for 48 hours."
That section of the post has been there since it was posted. What's misleading? If you've got a reading comprehension above a gr. 6 level there's nothing confusing or misleading. |

I love D3 and Path of Exile, but I never once bothered with their "season" modes.
Considering "season" mode only started yesterday. goes without saying you'd never bothered to try it. |

Science-free food! Now with 300% more rot and insects!
There isn't a single independent peer reviewed study that shows GMO crops to be any more viable than non-GMO crops. |

Nothing more than lip service/propaganda. General Mills openly admits that there will be warnings on the box concerning possible contamination with GMO ingredients during the manufacturing process.
Considering they've been caught red handed in a money laundering scheme used to defeat GMO labeling in Washington, expecting them to operate "above board" is nothing short of delusional. |

They priced themselves right out of business on this one. Worse yet its a mediocre game at best. Only hardcore Marvel fans should apply.
Hardcore Marvel fan here and there are so many issues with the game that only the rabid fans defend the crap that is Marvel Heroes. There are still numerous bugs/glitches that were present in closed beta. Add in abhorrent customer service, technical support and borderline fraudulent billing system glitches and your left with nothing even worth the trouble of downloading let alone investing money in. |

| Can't say I'm shocked about the negative review of Marvel Heroes. Between the lackluster gameplay, and continuing technical issues tempered with abhorrent customer service, I'd be surprised if the game is still around by the end of the year. |

Can someone please enlighten me on how a person can be on death row for decades? Can privatized jail systems profit from such a practice or is it just to fuck around with the inmate so he doesn't get off the hook so quickly at the tax payer's expense?
Seems somewhat dubious.
Because, dependent on the state, he has numerous appeals he can file before the death sentence actually happens. The court system is hardly streamlined, so the appeals can take decades. |

But hey, don't let me stop those that haven't even tried it from bitching about things they know nothing about. Par for the course around here.
Although beta was actually enjoyable, having purchased the UP pack in Feb and confirmed by CS again in march, it didn't impede their flawed billing system from showing I'd paid nothing regardless of whether the charge was successful. Since CS refused to do anything, and TOS specifically states there are no refunds, I ended up having to initiate a chargeback with the bank. So you might not be having any issues that doesn't mean there aren't serious issues with Gazillions billing, customer support and account systems. Their technical support boards have been flooded this last week with varying issues. Issues that were present months ago in beta and Gazillion outright ignored or didn't consider them to be priorities. |

| Considering the ongoing issues in the last week, for people who got (or didn't) early access with their UP or PP purchase, costume/hero packs not useable (or not showing up at all), billing issues, account issues, as well as numerous other issues, don't even bother attempting to play this. |

Kudos to you for your work with Autistics! Speaking strictly about Autism, a friend of ours has an "Autistic" son who the state just took custody of by court order because in a violent fit he put his mom and one of her house guests in the hospital and it was ruled that he is a danger to himself and others and that she can't control him.. These fits of his have been very common throughout his, but he is 17 now and a pretty big kid. You'll notice I put "Autistic" in quotes because what this woman has learned is that in recent years it has come to the attention of many medical groups that Autism is quickly becoming one of the most misdiagnosed mental disabilities in the field of mental health. So, while you may very well be correct in saying that true Autism is not generally associated with violent or sociopathic behavior, it is very possible that a person who has been diagnosed with autism could easily display these traits simply because it was an incomplete or incorrect diagnosis. Also, it isn't like the news media ever vets anything like this before they just throw it out there for public consumption.
All special needs kids have the ability to have "fits" like that. It's not specific to the autism spectrum. The fit that you're talking about is not something that is planned (collecting guns and going to a school). It's something that happens due to varying factors (frustration, illness, over stimulation etc.), but it's always immediate and the focus is always on one or 2 people. But you'll never find a single psychologist or pychiatrist that will give an Autistic a diagnosis of sociopath. It also depends where on the spectrum a child, or adult, is. The fit you're describing tends to happen with lower functioning Autistics due to the aforementioned issues. Aspergers is high functioning autism. Most people with Aspergers end up with university degrees and/or are in the genius IQ range.
Mental health professionals shouldn't be diagnosing Autism either, perhaps that's the problem in the states. Up here in Canada it is a team based approach with both mental health professionals (psychologists, psychiatrists, behavioural consultants and psychiatric nurses) as well as medical specialists and the family GP. From what I know, from meeting with the broad range of health professionals, that it's actually the opposite. A lot of Autistics, especially those that would fall into Aspergers category, tend to be misdiagnosed with a variety of mental illnesses. But these tend to be those that are higher functioning. When I was a teenager, 30 years ago, a lot of higher functioning Autistics were diagnosed with ADD/ADHD due to certain aspects of Autism being very similar to ADD/ADHD. Those kids never improved due to misdiagnosis and a good majority of them ended up living in mental health institutions. That's one of the issues with Autism, it's a spectrum disorder.
The news media is nothing more than sensationalism for profit especially in situations like this. Did you even read the article that Blue linked? Their business is to sell news and over the last 10yrs that means sensationalism. A perfect example is "bathsalts zombie". If they called it for what it was, a drug overdose, people would'nt even bother to read it. These school shootings are no different. |
