I spent my entire adult life in the US and recently (a few years) moved back to England. I’m still getting used to this.

that doesn’t make sense at all.

If you don’t pay the 25k you cereal is still going to be on the same shelf as any other cereal box. paying 25k would garanteed that the store put your cereal at the front of the store in a very nice display saying “hey come try our new cereal!”.

not paying doesn’t make it that you can’t…

Irrespective of the context of the whole thing, I do think “I know that I’m a good person” is a statement that genuinely good people don’t often make. I feel like usually genuinely good people are always trying to be better people. 

Get over it.

This backlash is ridiculous. The software isn’t fantastic, but the catalog is constantly updated and has remained top-notch. Plus, if Crunchyroll had done nothing but keep up with inflation for the past 13 years, they would be charging $8.40/month right now. So even after the price raise, they’re still making less…

I totally agree with you.

I agree - Unions have outlived their usefulness in the United States.

Why Arcades Haven’t Died In Japan

Bernie supporters turned out for Hillary at a higher rate than Hillary supporters turned out for Obama in ‘08. Maybe you should’ve listened to people telling you that HRC was an awful, unelectable candidate instead of being offended that someone would dare challenge her rightful ascension to the throne.

“I am the way into the city of woe,
I am the way into eternal pain,
I am the way to go among the lost.

Justice caused my high architect to move,
Divine omnipotence created me,
The highest wisdom, and the primal love.

Before me there were no created things
But those that last forever—as do I.
Abandon all hope, you who enter…

So, your discussion of minority representation is going to completely ignore what makes good business sense? That’s just not rational, if you want minorities to be represented like I do then the concrete, inconvenient facts of reality need to be dealt with and discussed, otherwise what you want will forever remain a…

So, can you give some examples of who is in this large pool of big-name actresses, then?

With a big-budget Hollywood film, the main character in particular isn’t drawn from all working actors, but instead from a smaller pool of established actors and actresses that audiences are already familiar with. They could go with an actress that audiences aren’t familiar with, but it would be an unusual choice and…

I’m am not defending this, but you’ll have to understand this is by no means a new act. Being offended by it is literally years too late.

I don’t think anything you said rules out an AI. Athena in the Winston short has a female voice, and it’s not odd for people to assign genders to things like AI. Also, AIs are intelligent things. We don’t have any now (that we know of #tinfoilhat) so our conception of them is only through the lens of sci-fi. GLaDOS…

I’m going to argue that they *do* owe us something.

Don’t be sorry. Be better.
