“Death is ok. Inevitable, even.”

Oooooh so you’re just a sociopath.  I was almost concerned that engaging you seriously was going to be worth the time.  I’m glad I caught this part before it was too late. 

I normal see it pretty easily, but I admit I was having trouble noticing a huge difference in this particular game.

It could also be because I’m looking at it on a fairly small screen at the moment.

“and died on the 4th of July”

So did John Adams, and frankly he deserves more of our recognition than Jefferson. 

Hell, “Nuanced biopics” are already a risky venture these days even when you DO cast an A-Lister. I’m actually amazed any of them still get made at all. 

I agree with you.  It’s awful.  And honestly, until Hollywood as an institution crumbles, I’m not sure there’s a way forward there.

Didn’t say it was an excuse.  I’m just saying that’s the reality of the situation.  It wasn’t a value-judgement.

It’s only a shock if you don’t keep up with the industry.

“It’s easy to point to Price’s original comment as “crossing the boundary” or unprofessional in the context of her job”

It’s a little more than that. It was a major miscalculation on her part, and frankly I’m not sure she’s learned the lesson she needed to from it.

I read the exchange, and Deroir’s original response was

I had an epiphany the other day. Full disclosure: I’m the whitest white dude you’ve ever seen.

I’ve gotten increasingly frustrated by the sort of “ally-ship” white people as a whole are displaying. It’s the kind where we heave a sigh of relief if we believe the burden can be lifted off of us to fix our own shit, and we

“Because she’s potentially taking the role from a trans actor”

No she isn’t.

I don’t say that to be mean or dismissive, I say that as a fact: This movie does not get financed and made unless the lead goes to an A-Lister like ScarJo. Full Stop.

That’s the reality right now. It sucks, and I wish it weren’t so, but it is.

Even mid-size and some small RVs have separate toilet and showers.  For $12,000 on the used market you can get one that’s 2-3 years old and has all of that.  Easily.

It’s time for America to end.

I hope whatever takes its place is better.

Trying to decipher that Life in Aggro strip gave me a headache, but the art is nice.

And still the worst writer on the site.

For the purposes of copyright, there’s no difference at all.

It comes down to most publishers in the video game industry being fine with allowing streamers to essentially dole out free publicity to their products, so they don’t raise a stink over it.

Streamers that get big enough even end up more or less becoming

“More than 10"

It’s 12.  With a number that low, why go the estimation route?

We’re done until the next generation takes power. Millennials had our chance and we fucking blew it. Big time.

“and not knowing the most important female artist in his own genre”

OK I agree with most of what you said buuuuuuut no. 

“I honestly didn’t know what to make of this, but it didn’t really come across as a joke.”

How on earth did you not think it was a joke? It was quite obviously a joke. That’s been his style of joke for his whole career.

It’s fine to not like the guy, but good grief. 

People with allergies.
