“these critics are out of touch” - this is such a myopic take. Of course audiences love the movie; it’s a dumb kids movie, made for kids, filled with dumb bullshit that kids like. Same as Minions. That was obvious from the first real trailer. It’s Minions, done with a Mario skin.

Almost no one who gave it an honest chance had those problems. The well was poisoned before it premiered by bad-faith racist and sexist criticisms, as well as the worst kind of lore-purist gatekeeping. There certainly are aspects of the show deserving criticism (I don’t like the driving force of the series being myster…

It’s not "their" money. It's taxpayers' money, and they give absolutely zero fucked how much of that is wasted, as long as it all goes to then and their friends. So this is a win win win win, where they win the initial culture war, win the money, win the news cycle on appeal, and win that by the time they lose, they…

“faux-philanthropy”

Oh were those people not really blind or something? 

The orphan-crushing machine provides valuable jobs and revenue to our community. Why do you hate job-creators?

Lack of economies of scale. I assume these will be one off or very low run items. So probably a mold for each and then a few castings.

No Community? I guess R&M will be Community from now on.

Also why it’s plain embarrassing to be caught playing some of these games, much less try and recommend them to others.

Toby played Nick Carraway, Leo played Jay Gatsby.

It’s even worse than the ultra-rich using these private foundations to funnel money to their own pet projects and to derive material benefits (ie, donate to an educational institution so their shitty kids can get in) - which is a fact. In addition, most of the top private foundations fail to meet even the minimum…

I thought it was pretty accepted that when super rich people have charities, those are usually just a way for them to funnel money back into their other enterprises. Twas ever thus.

Yes, I can see how the mission in which you are a spy acting undercover as a terrorist committing an awful act of mass murder on foriegn soil is equivalent to a level in which you play as law enforcement acting in your capacity as an officer and agent of the government. Totally the same.

“Centrist”

Well, it’s certainly not his rotting corpse. We know this because he left detailed instructions for his burial.

And how exactly would a warning or ability to OPTIONALLY skip certain scenes alter your personal gaming experience? I recently played a game with spider-like creatures and there was an arachnophobia warning. And you know what? My gaming experience was completely unaffected.

Apart from the violence it inflicts on the apostrophe.

the Want to date a family member is something we know about, we’ve reproduced ourselves, we’re working on it.

Maybe Elon Musk has only played the game with the Malkavian mod:
