In comic book terms, its brilliant stuff. In literary/philosophical terms its shit we’ve covered at least 100 times already, minus the silly capes. It’s an interesting bit of pop psych/philosophy though and I enjoyed it for the most part when I read it.

Well the goal is to go as fast as possible through difficult terrain. So setup an obstacle course (or rope off a section of a city to be the “parkour course”) and say you have to go from point A to point B in as short a time as possible. Most of the time parkour competitions use existing areas for obstacle courses to…

It’s the 2nd tier of the regional divisions. It’s like if your beer league had a minor league.

Other than Lawless, Gal Gadot could probably pull it off...but she’s also pretty unlikely to take up the leather swimsuit with her whole “being a major movie star” thing. I could maybe see Hayley Atwell in the role. Other than that, it’s hard to think of someone off the top of my head, unless they go in a drastically…

Thank you sir.

White people in America generally do the right thing (eventually, if no other options are present).

Hard to do, unfortunately. Giving a player a yellow for faking an injury, then seeing him carted off the field and into the locker room? Not a good look. Diving is a little easier (and I just saw a dive call at a game I was at yesterday) and it does get called from time to time.

Sadly it’s a bar our current president couldn’t have jumped over; not just because he’s a fat lazy sack of shit that believes that physical activity drains your “life force” but also because he’s racist.

It’s not so much that as it is that he seems that his character’s solution to the mind-bending realization that reality is topsy-turvy is to...shrug their shoulders. Deckard’s reaction to the bizarre android revelations he experiences in “Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?” is to say “well hey, I guess androids have…

I meant when an innocent white person gets prosecuted while using it. Until then, nobody will care.

I have to say, my biggest gripe with Philip K Dick was the fact that he would throw things off the rails at the end and then resolve it with some character thinking it doesn’t matter anyway. It’s like he took a bunch of acid halfway through writing the story, wrote a bunch, then came down off his trip and finished the…

When it happens to an innocent white person, then people will care. Not even joking here.

To a certain extent you are right that the pricing scheme of games is a big part of why games cost what they do, as expectations are set. For indie games, I’d say the price compared to current technology (aka AAA games) makes sense because the technology in use is usually older. Compared to monitors for example, you…

I liked Drak and Vetra (I romanced Vetra), I liked the medic Asari (Lexi, I think), the science officer Suvi and I liked that they gave Ryder some actual personality compared to the original trilogy...but the rest of your team are shades somewhere between boring and outright annoying. Cora is the standard “all about…

You son of a bitch!

The idea that indie developers and publishers need to charge more for their games is interesting, since there is a smaller market, but that idea relies on the assumption that people would buy your game at any price. Galyonkin points to “The Witness” as an example of an indie game selling for $40, but he ignores that…

Yeah, I looked at both the releases for July and the releases for June, the only real competition would be Tekken 7, but that came out in early June. July was a wasteland for game releases other than Splatoon and Pyre.

How many people suffered because they couldn’t afford an epipen? How many people died because they couldn’t afford one to carry around with them? How does $465 million fix this? It fucking doesn’t. What should happen is that vital drugs like this should be produced by the government, at cost; seize their operations.
