Yeah, I don’t think targeting Baldwin for firing the gun is a winning argument, unless the jury is unusually generous to the plaintiff. Pretty much everything he did as an actor was not negligent (and there’s some evidence that he took a great deal of care), and while you’re absolutely correct that there seems to be a…
“Oh fuck off, you understand what it means.”
I think people give far too much credit to the average person in the nation in their ability to understand the nuance of defunding the police.
“Defund the police” is a stupid slogan; it will actually require an increase in emergency services funding to do the reforms they want, and it just plays into right wing spin of their talking points. The concept is good but the slogan needs taken out back of the shed.
It’s silly, turn your brain off fun that would only work with a guy like Ritchson in the role.
With those logos, they look like someone tried to cross the Legion of Superheroes with the Justice League (or the Teen Titans)
I think she said what she had to say gracefully and with great compassion for her grandmother and what she experienced. Congratulations, though, on countering that with an incredibly idiotic post because you want to make her seem ridiculous for displaying an actual sense of everyone’s shared humanity.
This situation is of the Hospitals’ own making. They have treated nurses and other staff like shit and refused to raise their pay or treat them with any dignity. This has been going on since before the pandemic, but is finally coming to a head.
Just 2 days ago Kotaku sister site AVClub took pleasure in piling on an Asian woman for speaking with a ‘blaccent.’ Everyone is starting to get splattered with this shit now.
This crap makes me wish D&D would go back to being something we all just kinda did in secret with our friends and the greater population shunned it.
This is overblown criticism, but consistent with how this site has been moving towards. It feels like most articles are just some variation of “Hey! Popular thing is actually bad!”
So....a solution? Sounds like you don’t want them to explore these cultural identifiers and the explorer-genre tropes. Should half the cast be fired and people you find “approved” be playing this game?
“This may seem like an overly cynical and bad-faith interpretation of what Critical Role is doing with this new campaign.”
Well deserved - I get the complaints that the show is cliche. But it was also a blast. Ritchson is great in the lead role and watching him use his frame in action scenes is a lot of fun. The supporting cast was great too (sad that most will likely be dropped given they’re not in other books). And the story was…
If this is a romantic partner... make better choices.
It very much does, and it’s one of the reasons I really like them (even Iron Fist). The D+ shows feel at home next to the MCU movies; the Netflix shows are what an R-rated MCU would look like.
I didn’t love Gunn’s Suicide Squad (although it was better than 95% of the other DC films), but hot damn, the show is amazing. People who compared it to Deadpool or The Boys... just no. And who would’ve guessed of all the WWF starts to transition to film that John Cena would be an unassailably good actor? I mean, he’s…
Peacemaker has been an absolute joy to watch. Like, I hoped it would be good, but daaamn...and I’ve had that Wig Wam track stuck in my head for weeks now.
Lee stiffing the contractor and then threatening him with a gun was a big part of the first episode. I don’t know if it’s accurate to what happened in this case, but it’s plausible and those situations do happen. If you didn’t know where the story was going, the carpenter would be sympathetic in the first episode. The…
