Kinda ironic, considering that one of the major themes of the books AND games is Geralt constantly having to deal with being treated as a sub-human outsider, often mistrusted and despised even by the people who wind up needing his help. Although his skin color is white, I’d say a room full of writers from varying…

Ugh, prequels. I’m completely uninterested in having any of Marston’s backstory filled in. His shady past, referenced but never spelled out, worked perfectly for his character. Would have much rather seen a completely new, unrelated adventure.

I don’t think videogames are a useful comparison, because video game characters aren’t even remotely convincing as conscious beings.

Westworld robots are capable of pretty perfectly simulating humanity. Most people could interact with one at length and not know whether it was a person or a robot. So, you can argue the philosophical point that they don’t possess the same kind of consciousness that humans do. Buuut if you are capable of killing and…

I don’t know, Kellyanne. If your president grabs one pussy, or two pussies, has he grabbed ALL pussies? Think about THAT.

“Dumb fun” usually just translates to “dumb”, but it sounds like they leaned into the absurdity hard here and it paid off. Which is great because I originally thought they didn’t go camp enough, what with the creatures being giant versions of actual animals instead of people transformed into ridiculous monsters.

Sweet. This is exactly what I needed, a way to get constant shooting practice against live opponents without having to constantly re-queue for a new game every time I die.

“Our kids follow their example, and this is the example they set?”

Seriously. That comment just kept going, and going, and going...

I would take that job and then basically collect their money doing as bad a job as possible without getting fired, for as long as possible.

Holy shit. I was ignoring this kid because he’s a kid, he doesn’t need to be raked over the coals for shitty political opinions, and also he did survive the shooting and is entitled to his feelings and opinions on the issue. But you’re right, he is actually bragging about how connected he is now thanks to the…

The dev sounds like the triggered one, honestly.

Wow, so edgy.

Me too, amazing aesthetic, especially combined with the weird distorted voices.

“Feelings = Facts” has been core to the Republican ideology for some time now.

Oh, I have no doubt that a big part of the appeal, in conservative minds, is that it makes sex workers’ lives as hard and as dangerous as possible. Their logic being that it helps dissuade anyone from voluntarily choosing to enter the profession, and that anyone who does so deserves whatever they get.

Planned Parenthood provides actual medical advice, and tries to help each woman make the decision that she feels is best. That includes the option of following through with a pregnancy, in which case Planned Parenthood continues to support that woman and her family with ongoing health services.

That’s the first thing I thought, too. Maybe there’s more to that situation, but in the context of the trailer it just seems spectacularly dumb. Makes me wonder if the rest of the movie is full of similarly ridiculous moments.

Got to try a bidet after staying in an AirBnB in Italy that was equipped with one, and i am 100 percent sold on them. Just a little bit of tp after to dry off, and it felt so much cleaner than standard wiping.

Yeah, same here. It’s like a mental block, I can’t make myself figure out building while I’m focused on shooting and trying not to get shot. I watch skilled players get into battles where sprawling structures just unfold around them and I’m mystified. That said, I think it’s pretty easy to rank fairly highly,…
