“Look again at that dot. That’s here. That’s home. That’s us. On it everyone you love, everyone you know, everyone you ever heard of, every human being who ever was, lived out their lives. The aggregate of our joy and suffering, thousands of confident religions, ideologies, and economic doctrines, every hunter and…

Seriously.

I have some pretty big ontological questions about framerates and patches.

bah gawd he had a family!

Hello! I’m flattered that you made an account just to hate on me in the comments on this video review of a game about Baby Bobby’s Barbie Dolls making each other explode with swords. That shows dedication. Dedication is an admirable quality. I fully endorse your decision to dislike me as a person, and to summarily…

“If The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild is a loved one who bakes and then decorates a birthday cake and then surprises you with a birthday party attended by your living friends and your miraculously resurrected favorite dead relatives, Hyrule Warriors is a clown force-feeding you cotton candy in a loud basement.” 

For a second there I thought you were going to say The Joker is an expression of Diogenes’ of Sinope’s Stoic ideal taken to its logical extreme.

I don’t think he actually has a military/intelligence background, but they just crafted a character who represents the most tactical kind of sociopath in our society...which maps pretty directly to military intelligence.

I’m pretty sure they make more than $130K.

I think that’s also interesting, how the desire for equal access to education is characterized as displacing hard-working, deserving affluent children. Those UWS parents seem to feel that their children deserve something that other children don’t, whether they admit to it or not, and won’t acknowledge that they are…

Ah sell Leviathan Axes and Leviathan Axessories.

Just pointing out, but there is a fairly easy answer to the headline’s question, “what are the ‘positive aspects’ of slavery”: Cheap/Free labor. BUT that wasn’t the question being asked. The question is what are the “positive aspects” of living as a slave.

“medieval Mountain Dew” - the greatest grouping of words I’ve heard in 2018 so far.

It’s easy to become a fascist stooge when you believe in solipsistic mystical garbage.

he doesn’t need to be fifty feet tall to be a Giant Monster in my heart imo

I sleep well at night knowing I won’t have to explain to my grandkids someday that I was one of the good Germans.

There’s a pretty funny answering machine message in an in-game phone about a guy who wants to run for office on a platform of shipping people who disagree with him to California and establishing a northern border wall or something like that that moves up one inch a year until all of Canada is annexed. So, sorry. No…

It’s the very same people who say ‘why didn’t he just comply’ that are the first to say the ‘cops feared for their lives.’

I’m absolutely adoring the game so far. I’ve been waiting for this for practically a decade (I skipped the console version), after the massive disappointment that FF13 was. I don’t care that the story is shallow or whatever - I’m 22 hours in and still on Chapter 3, so it doesn’t really matter much to me. I also…

I can very easily understand the White House’s disgust with those gaming clips.
