As others have mentioned, the reason why is likely shitty, controlling corporate leadership. Unfortunately, I doubt remote work was a big concern for most folks when the union negotiated their contract pre-COVID, but I bet it will be when negotiations come back around.

Someone else really put it together for me when they pointed out that virtually every other “historical” character in the movie comes off really well, almost inhumanly so given what we know about Roman fucking Polanski. Tarantino even went to the trouble of getting Sharon Tate’s family to sign off on his portrayal of…

I don’t think this article conflates those two concepts, though. The article, aside from its headline (which is perfect, in my opinion) is almost entirely a factual description of fan disappointment and the reasoning behind it. Maybe this is just my reading, but I don’t think the tone is judgmental towards Nintendo,…

Sixt is pretty ubiquitous here in Germany, and I’ve had universally good experiences with them from a customer service perspective. I don’t rent cars often enough to say if they’re the best value for money, but at least they were pleasant to deal with and never screwed me over.

Exciting to see someone else is also pleased with Tesla’s innovation in the field of transportation. Who could have guessed that Musk would figure out a way to avoid surface traffic, moving all those people via semi-autonomous vehicles in restricted subterranean routes. All he has to do now is scale up the concept.…

A ”feature” of late stage capitalism seems to be encouraging fandom or alliance to corporations, and a conflation of what you consume with who you are. For example, during Gamergate, so many people were enraged to have the term “gamer” be besmirched. But the reality is that label has always been reductive and kinda…

Everything. Is. Political. Saying “it’s not political” doesn’t somehow void that, it just means that you are claiming some level of neutrality, which is in itself a political stance.

As I’ve said before, Simone Biles only legitimate competition at this point are the laws of physics.

“The fault, dear Brutus, is not in our stars, but in ourselves.”

Why would I need a Marauders prequel?  To remind me that James Potter sucks shit and was a bully?

Man, I really don't understand how her marriage works.  Portia de Rossi seems super cool, and Ellen sucks shit.  Must be rough.

Trademarks and copyright are not the same.

There were some very minor changes, some of which I believe were ported back to the earlier games.  But I've been playing through the levels in original order and I think they all hold up beautifully.

If someone was part of the literal worst administration in the history of American democracy, I would seriously question the motivations and/or intellect of anyone who hired him afterwards. Frankly, the corruption and incompetence of literally every facet of the Trump administration was so total that it should render…

It’s evidently more stupidity than masochism. There are seemingly a lot of folks in the comments for every Newswire post, complaining about articles being clickbait or the like, clamoring for the return of a better version of the sight.

There’s a substantive difference between listing the conclusions of a subject or source, as they relay them, and making a statement of fact. The former is why you see things like quotation marks utilized, to distinguish a source’s conclusions from the conclusions of a writer.

You’re working through by far the roughest part of the game right now, though I understand they’ve done some work to cut down on a lot of the quest bloat that occupied that space.

Her character is odd. All the other Scions have stronger, more interesting personalities, and deeper and more meaningful connections to Louisoix, and yet for some reason, he told her off-screen to step up and lead them all after his death? Sure, maybe don’t dump that on your teenaged grandkids, but why aren’t Y’Shtola…

This is the actual correct answer. The Halo 1 Shotgun fucking rules.

To be fair, I presume one doesn’t work with the Gaines’ if one isn’t onboard with Joanna’s aesthetic, and I tend toward the opinion that interior design is a subjective art form. So while I wholeheartedly agree with you that she is a fucking hack who has a shiplap accent wall where her personality should be, I can’t…
