  • Several of the trade groups that sued New York “vociferously lobbied the FCC to classify broadband Internet as a Title I service in order to prevent the FCC from having the authority to regulate them,” today’s 2nd Circuit ruling said. “At that time, Supreme Court precedent was already clear that when a federal agency lacks the power to regulate, it also lacks the power to preempt. The Plaintiffs now ask us to save them from the foreseeable legal consequences of their own strategic decisions. We cannot.”

    This has to be one of the better, legal “go fuck yourselves” I’ve ever seen.



  • I don’t know that it’s all that obscure, but with Halloween coming up you should see Tucker and Dale vs Evil if you haven’t already. It’s a role reversal of the teens in the woods trope. Two redneck buddies (Tyler Labine and Alan Tudyk) are renovating a hunting cabin when they save a young woman who knocks herself unconscious in the lake. Her friends think the rednecks are creepy killers and proceed to attack the two in an attempt to save their friend. The teens end up accidentally killings themselves one by one all over the rednecks’ property scaring the hell out of everyone involved, and that’s just the beginning.
