With the same “anecdotally” preface: I’ve known a lot of folks who worked as servers, and no one has ever copped to doing anything to a customer’s food, even a shitty one. In general I think it’s just not worth getting shitcanned and/or more seriously in trouble for.

Yeah, but the Inventory is the marketing department, which gets space on the page thanks to the Herb.  Koyaku editorial can't do anything about that, nor do they have any hand in choosing what they post.

Agreed on all points, as a piece of art that is nominally anti-colonialist (lotta thinly veiled Iraq War metaphors in there) “Dances with Aliens” is kind of a weird choice as far as story structure goes.

A big part of keeping those cases numbers down, and any infections less severe, is vaccination, so GDQ rightly mandates it for attendance at the event, which they would not be able to do in Florida. I know they went with a smaller, socially distanced model for SGDQ this year as well, which I’m sure they would like to

I don’t think Smash is really all that different from any other fighting game when it comes to balance. The more “wacky” elements were never part of competitive play due to the inherent randomness of their usage, and unlike a MOBA there’s no evolution of a character’s moveset or power-level over the course of a game.

Not surprising coming from a country collectively frothing at the mouth at the mere concept of trans people.

There’s a hidden 2-player game mode, and it’s been 28 years since Super Punch Out was released and it was only found now. Putting that into a succinct headline is going to result in a fairly limited number of permutations unless you’re getting really flowery.

Even before non-meat-based proteins became the subject of a lot more R&D, vegetarian breakfast sausages were a pretty solid option.  I can only imagine they’ve gotten better since.

If you consider that 32 Pokemon had new models in their Gigantamax forms, some with unique attacks, it doesn’t actually compare that unfavorably to the 48 Mega Evolutions, none of which had unique attacks.

Given that Spain has never apologized or provided any kind of reparation for the Conquista, I don’t see how that’s particularly outlandish. Spain essentially slaughtered half a continent’s worth of people and then essentially enslaved the rest in a centuries-long campaign to extract every bit of mineral and

When have late night hosts ever really changed minds? I don’t recall Letterman ever shifting public sentiment on anything significant. Jay Leno mostly just joked about Clinton getting a blowjob for 10 years past its relevance.

Political arguments about great art are literally as old as great art.  Not sure why you think the last decade is special.

If 2022 has taught me anything it's that I have a limitless capacity for rage.

The novel gives it a little more room to breathe, but not a huge amount. But what actually takes the ending and makes it satisfying in the novel is the epilogue chapters. It really adds a lot of context and closure around what his sacrifice meant for the world, the people he loves, and ultimately the life he finally

Probably closest to a vodka collins, really.  Which is a great drink.  Refreshing in ways a mimosa or screwdriver really aren’t.  If you have cola around and you’ve got some grenadine, try a Roy Rogers with a bit of vodka or rum tossed in, also a good time.

The article fails to make note of the fundamental connection between how mobile games are structured in terms of time-gating and their monetization structure. Makers of F2P games aren’t out to try and create a more spaced out experience in hopes that you’ll stick with the game for a while, they’re creating that

Sure, and caber tossing doesn’t happen outside of Scotland, and Russia makes a big deal out of chess, and the Dominion keeps trying to convince people cricket is a real game and not a golf-esque way of taking afternoon tea and ruining it with unnecessary feats of semi-athleticism.

This looks cool as all hell. As an avid FFXIV player, you can definitely feel the influence of Yoshi-P all throughout. I’ve really only played significant amounts of 2 mainline FF single player games, 6 and 12, so I’m really looking forward to getting into this one.

Rampant, constant scammery is inarguably the primary feature of the world they’re so desperate for. The unregulated Randian fever dream of the Blockchain is everything they say they want, but they all start complaining when it turns out that unregulated markets are incredibly prone to scams, theft, cons, etc. Almost

Robotech was basically three different anime strapped together for syndication. The first “season” of the show is the original “Macross,” with some judicious editing to make it more kid-friendly iirc. The remaining two are based on “Super Dimension Cavalry Southern Cross” and "Genesis Climber MOSPEADA" respectively.
