Bea is absolutely tan. From her life style to the town she lives in the games. Also this is Japan. They don’t know or care about any this.

Non-Japanese fans of Japanese game: We are mad that a character from said Japanese game appears a slightly different shade of color in Japanese cartoon series based on same Japanese game!

The stereotype of these particular gay men doesn’t bug me all that much. Yes it’s an old trope, but played for laughs it can still be quite funny. I don’t feel represented (I’m gay, but don’t identify with this overly flowery behavior) but I also don’t feel offended when I see this stereotype. See Bolson in Breath of…

Sir, this is an Arby’s.

Is this satire? If not, yikes. 

As gamers are, as a whole, a thoughtful, inclusive, and reflective group, I expect this change (one that in no way negatively impacts anyone at all) to be received with open arms and thunderous applause. Hooray for gamers!

Now if Japan could stop putting homophobic bullshit in their games in the first place....

Completely unrelated to this show, but having seen the trailer, I now want more than anything for Sophia Lillis to be cast as Doreen Green in a Squirrel Girl show or film. She’s perfect. Didn’t notice it during IT, but in this she really looks the part.

I grew up with the Tolkien watercolor covers, but I’ve seen the Remington covers. They do have a certain charm, and I have to wonder what she would have accomplished if she’d bothered to read the novels herself.

Which overpriced brick and mortar retailer do you work for?

I have a strong prescription (-5.25 in one eye, -5.50 in the other). The last pair I bought in a store cost $500, took two weeks to come in, had the wrong axis for one lens (the prescription was correct, the lens was wrong), and the store could not promise me a refund/remake. When they finally did remake the glasses,…

“Change is happening,” Yoshida said. “People are becoming more aware and understanding. Values do shift, but I think the pace...is very different depending on individuals. It’s a difficult and delicate situation.”

True to their aviation roots, the temporarily flying car was a BMW M4

“And I’m happy to say that, in fact the president has never asked me to do anything in a criminal case.”

How much does anyone here want to bet that the “moving scene that left everyone on set crying” involves one of them dying? I have a feeling Marvel will end up pulling a “Kill your gays.”

I dunno, FF14 Carbuncle(s) are quite kawaii.

It’s a technique that works though. Stardew Valley was the answer to “Where isi Harvest Moon on PC?”

Um, he’s 28, calling himself a kid over and over kind of tells me all I need to know about this douche.

He should have to pay for the extra crew wages + fuel + restitution for wasted time of everyone on that plane. That’s not a “prank”, it’s deliberately inciting fear along the lines of shouting “fire” in a crowded theater.

“even talks of a Western cinematic adaptation”
