I realise Frozen is not a perfect film- the plot has some pretty silly twists for a start, 'love will thaw' being the most egregious. But it's been a while since we had a half-decent musical Disney animation, I think Elsa is kind of kickass and Olaf is probably one of Disney's best comedy reliefs, so…I can't bring…

Now, some of those identifiably gender variant individuals involved in Stonewall would have been drag queens, who we would now identify as cisgender gay men using drag for social commentary.

I suspect there's several reasons that these exist. One is that children like to buy toys like this, as do many adult collectors. Another is that parcelling out DLC into small chunks and throwing in a figurine each time to sweeten the deal is turning out to be a great sales tactic.

I don't think that applies if they both actually consent.

Yeah, I was thinking "hey, I recognise this from somewhere," and then it hit me!

I see conventions like GaymerX as serving two distinct purposes. The first is as a meeting ground: as a place you can assume will be frequented by people that both share your interests and are likely to be interested in sharing them with you…and more besides. On the whole, being gay is hard enough as it is without…

Yeah, Team Fortress 2 has turned into this massive universe of entirely throwaway exposition. It's pretty cool!

I agree: if Home had been better implemented and given a more central role in the gaming experience (rather than just being shunted off to the side) it could have been something pretty special.

Going to cover your mouth while riding a bike seems like kind of a bad idea.

Regarding paraphilias, is that actually an accurate distinction to be making, though? I mean, I've just had a look at another definition on Wikipedia, which merely says that a paraphilia is an attraction to atypical objects, situations or individuals. It seems more of a case of the attraction being 'unusual' rather…

I'm not doing any such thing. I'm saying it's an unhelpful set of vocabulary to be using.

Well, the OED defines a paraphilia as 'a condition characterized by abnormal sexual desires, typically involving extreme or dangerous activities.' The 'extreme or dangerous activities' part is probably enough to classify paedophilia as a paraphilia rather than just a sexual orientation, if we consider it actively does…

To play devil's advocate, many people viewed men having an urge to have sex with men as a perversity not so long ago in my country (the UK). Many still do. Our current prime minister, I believe, was in favour of some pretty nasty legislation in schools that only got repealed 10 years ago.

You have shops that still sell PS1 games!? I'm jealous.

The bit about the fax machine made me laugh. We actually have a functioning fax machine in our office, but we only seem to get adverts from tax collectors through it nowadays.

How big is this thing compared to an actual PS1?

I just bought a bunch of the mini Visorak off eBay on a whim. They're pretty cool!

I'm guessing Lego won't be doing stuff like that as the Ideas sets seem to be designed to stand alone rather than being part of a larger range. But! They have made quite a few dinosaurs in the past, including this bad boy, so maybe you could make up something of a Jurassic Park scenario. Or just buy a bunch of Lego…

I guess you can't buy the kits and minifigures separately because most people will want a kit with everything you need out of the box. Who wants to be scrabbling around looking for minifigures? If one sells out over the other one, it could get pretty irritating, especially as things like the Collectible Minifigure…

I never really understood how gender was supposed to work in the Bionicle universe. I mean, if we assume they're a type of robot (or mechanical life form) they don't exactly have the dangly parts…so is it an issue of gender over sex? Something one identifies as? There's nothing to physically distinguish the males from…
