Squashed: Free Speech, Corporate Speech, and... →
I can’t relaly bring myself to care about today’s Supreme Court ruling. Sure, it weakens campaign finance laws, but the campaign finance laws were broken to begin with. They were more like a string of fenceposts rather than an actual fence. They won’t stop much—but might make you slow down enough…

stoya:
Fan is short for fanatic, which I think is a bit extreme to apply to everyone who buys one of Digital Playground’s movies that I’m in, or my Fleshlight, or comes out to a signing to get a picture or an autograph. I think it’s more than a bit extreme to apply to someone who follows me on …

Chart: CNNMoney
“Take the Money and Run.” “Hollywood Ending.” “Everyone Says I Love You.” “Sleeper.” “Bananas.” “Shadows and Fog.” “Whatever Works.”

Where Is Their Vote?: HOW NON-IRANIANS CAN HELP:... →
- Change your location and time zone on Twitter to Tehran, Iran (that’s GMT+3:30). - Change your profile icon to green in some way. - Set up a proxy and send a DM to @ProtesterHelp. - DO NOT retweet posts verbatim from Iran. This puts the users at risk. The Iranian Minstry of the Interior is…
