Same!
I won’t pretend that I -haven’t- downloaded a rom package that claimed to have every SNES game ever released, but I can also honestly say that was more novelty than anything and it saved me from having to track down a couple dozen of my favorites (most of which I actually STILL own their cartridges).

Emulation is…

It applies, but only takes off $4.29 for me. Not sure how doing this makes it cost “just under $15 a year”... my total after tax is $53.01.

You can grab 2 full years of PS Plus for just $53 (just under $27 per year). To get it, add a 1-year membership to your cart. Then head to checkout, up the quantity to two, and enter the code APRILPLUS. It shakes out to just under $15 a year, so this is an excellent bit of saving for anyone with enough foresight to…

It’s somewhat funny to think that people might nitpick “Gary has been to Seymour’s house before” but is seemingly fine with Bart “about to start the 4th grade” multiple times or probably a dozen “last day of school” episodes. The only continuity with the Simpsons is that there isn’t. If anything, the instances in…

How do you know that this interpretation is “as intended”?

If anything, with as perturbed as he was about Carpenter’s pregnancy on Angel, he likely valued “sterile” as a virtue for women rather than something that made them a “monster”...

I definitely don’t deny that many people would have (and have) legitimately interpreted it in a way that (I believe) wasn’t intended.

It was a poorly written scene, no matter how you slice it. It was quite sometime after the movie premiered that I heard anyone take that scene in such a way (and it was somewhere on the…

Except that, countless other people interpreted as it was intended... she felt like she was a “monster” because she was molded from youth to be a killer.

It was messy as hell for the writing to tie that into her relating to Bruce with respect to neither being able to have children, but when countless people have long…

Read Carpenter’s statement... she was very specific.

This isn’t actually what happened, and there are more than enough reasons to criticise Whedon that we don’t need to misrepresent this scene any further.

I read most of this thread and I appreciate your insight, experience, and sharing of some deeply personal issues.

It was frustrating watching others jump on you, ignore the majority of the points you were trying to make, take others out of context, and just generally trying to steamroll your experiences.

Know that…

it could be all beat to hell, looking like roast beef

Welp, I tried it this weekend. I’m not sure if the flavor was affected, but it did hold onto the moisture much better (to the point of having it stick to the pan if I wasn’t careful) and was a more appealing brown color.

Another article from lifehacker / Claire Lower about that very issue. Aside from the culinary reasons that isn’t the best idea, it’s murder on your pipes.

And if this was just a cheeky way to rib Claire for this very article, then well played :p

I think you hit the nail on the head, especially that the only real issue might be editing.

It felt pretty deliberate to me that this final season really had almost nothing to do with with the bad guys, and it was basically a victory lap and character introspection for the previous 6 seasons. The bad guys were simply there to move character development/resolution, and to give an excuse for the team/show to…

Speaking as someone who has been in a situation where you have multiple officers with assault rifles aimed at you, each giving you a different order, its fucking terrifying trying to comply with multiple (and often conflicting) directives from multiple people.

I cashed my white privilege check that day, for sure.

(they…

I’m white, so I’ll make an attempt?

Let me first preface her actions with a massive eye roll.

But, I’m guessing her statement likely boils down to two things:

1) I’m a white lady, considered non threatening, so I’m going to expose the hypocrisy of the police by showing that they won’t gas me

and

I clicked on this expecting to be like “what the fuck, really?”

I was pleasantly surprised.
