I would argue that while the overall beats felt rote, the details of how they played out were very unique. For instance, Nimona refusing to answer essentialist questions in any way but “I am Nimona” is something I’ve never seen before.

Usually that beat plays out as “they don’t want to talk about their tragic…

Hey, would you mind expanding on this a bit beyond just teeth? It’s been long enough since I kept up with modeling/lighting tech that I struggle to know what to look for.

Based on just the teeth thing, can I basically extrapolate to “examine shadow quality?”

Old people log off. Fucking seriously I’ve never seen such a group of curmudgeonly sons of bitches in my life.

I totally get why it’ll be reworded, but my take on it was that the character singing was lashing out and being nasty intentionally. Swift has liked painting herself as the villain for a bit now.

But if you take the car out of the equation, the crashes stop.

Yeah, that’s not what the article is saying at all. Actually, that’s not even what the sentence you quoted is saying. To sum up: while Tucci doesn’t describe exactly what “in the right way” means, the implication is that it means playing a queer character without falling back on lazy and hurtful stereotypes.

Every time I see one of these chuds I’m shocked that they actually exist. They’re like cartoon characters, only with the power to vote and own guns.

He was a fucking child you chud

It’s pretty nuts what basic functionality MS fails to provide in their flagship product. I mean, Mac OS is right there to copy from.

Take it from someone who moved a ton and has struggled to hold on to long-term friendships: if it means that much to you then it probably does to them as well, and you might be surprised by their reaction if you reached out.

“You can’t call this Final Fantasy.” <—- gatekeeping.

“If you like this Final Fantasy as a Final Fantasy, you’re wrong.” <— gatekeeping.

This just in: death of the author is TOXIC FANDOM BULLSHIT!

You’re right, it’s almost friendly to call a hobby that tons of people enjoy a “cesspool!”

Thank goodness it’s only a tenth of them

False equivalence at its finest.

WTF are you on about? Mario 64 is a 3d platformer. Mario is a platforming series.

If you’re anything like me, I have a hunch: Mario feels like he jumped right off the cover of an early Nintendo Power. 

If you think that having a wife and daughters makes you not “anti-women,” you should probably revisit the subject.

That’s a lot like “I can’t be racist, I have a black friend.”

TBH I stared at the still for like 15 seconds trying to figure out what looked wrong about it, and couldn’t. And I’ve been a hobbyist 3d modeler / shader writer for quite a while, so it’s not like I don’t know what to look for.

I spit my drink.
