“which I had dyed to be a multitude of fun colors”

Well in defense of YA, she is not a very famous YA writer. She was just trying to scam financing for a terrible self-insert fanfic of a movie by gaming her way onto the bestseller list. This is sub-fanfic quality “writing” by someone who’s probably never read a book in her life.

Nah, no one’s ignoring Scott Pilgrim. Though Baby Driver feels much more like Wright’s own movie to me than SPVTW did. Scott Pilgrim was a co-written adaptation of a well-known work that followed an existing narrative and carried over a lot of the existing visual aesthetic, whereas Baby Driver was new idea with a…

I actually had this surgery 18 months ago. I was a 32J, and they managed to get me down to a 32E (any smaller would have been impossible without a free nipple graft).

Bradygames and Square realised ‘just’ how fucked up this guide is (I still have a copy) and made Dan Birlew sign an NDA. He probably wrote an awesome guide but was made to amend it to encompass Playonline on Square’s instruction. Not wanting to seem the bad guy in this Square paid Dan to sign the NDA.

Mostly nostalgia I think. I believe (can’t be certain) that it has a definitive place in gay culture, but a lot of it is nostalgia.

...whaaat...? Don’t be blowing that dust off, just use a vacuum with the wee round furry nozzle. I have slight allergies (and even if one didn’t) just wiping much less blowing sends that stuff all around and you’re going to be cleaning it up again. Books, bookshelves, book-ends, trinkets, etc. just vacuum it :)

It’s our job to make changes, yes. But not specifically for the purpose of sanitizing content. People who play these games know that they’re Japanese (especially in a game like this), and know to interpret what they’re seeing from a Japanese perspective. For someone to actually be offended by the presence of a sign…

I am a teen with magic powers.

What gets me is that I understand locking you in the room because you’re tired. You’ve had a BIG DAY. But...surely you could at least make some lockpicks or watch a DVD to unwind while you’re in there...

They are also so genuinely great with kids and babies on their shows - so many tv personalities are weirdos with kids that it’s genuinely charming to see how much they like them.

Let me tell you, I was SO happy to see the comeback of the one-piece. I don’t like showing my midsection so I didn’t buy a new swimsuit in a decade, from 2005-2015 (throughout my twenties!) because all I could ever find were tiny bikinis, matronly tankinis with or without modesty skirts, or utilitarian one pieces that…

I’ve had to struggle what to think of Cosby since all this broke widely too. Not in the “is he a monster or not” sense, as he clearly is, but in the “how to reconcile the genius of his comedic career and what he did or tried to do for black people in this country with the horrible crimes that it turns out he was…

I actually just got the Neutrogena mask and I love it. Not only is it keeping my skin healthier in terms of less acne, areas of splotchiness and inflammation are lessened. I have had dermatitis on my upper lip since I hit puberty (so over 20 years) and several doctors botched what should have been a short-lived…

I think you just hit the nail on the head. With these folks, most of them are using their Real names (or their direct net handles) and aren’t explicitly playing characters, so it’s harder to separate the “Art” from the “Artist” in this way because a good amount of the appeal DOES come from “Hey, they’re just being…

how does it seem that he is arguing that this issue is more important than others? And more important - disability and illness happens to literally every human being at some point. So is this really only about his brother?

Gaston is a self-centred, sexist, misogynistic narcissist. The only person he’s in love with is himself. This is the point. Trying to push an ‘agenda’ on him (such as the observation above that Gaston himself might be gay) imo is actually offensive to gays - it suggests that misogyny and narcissim are ‘classically…
