These are awesome. I hope they do more dinosaur sets, with different skeletons. And then do a whole digsite playset where our minifigs can excavate the fossils. And then a natural history museum to display all of their finds in.

I grew up on Legos ('80s/'90s girl!), and when they finally did come out with the "girls'" building sets (which were very pastel and foofy), my response was: these are totally lame. Where's my castle set with the wizard and the dragons??

I don't watch a lot of TV, so I didn't exactly get the proper Chris Pratt indoctrination until recently, but he has now been in two of my favorite movies from this year and I adore him. The fact that he's going to be in "Jurassic World" makes me feel a tiny bit better about how that one might turn out.

I was minding a display table at a science museum once, and part of the display was an iPad set to play a video. This kid who couldn't have been older than 4 came up to the table, grabbed the iPad, pushed the button that takes you back to the desktop, found his way into the Games section (which involved doing the…

I haven't really played much of the Tropico series since the third game, but in each one you start out with a boilerplate Latin American/Caribbean island nation, and as "El Presidente" you can be a benevolent leader or rule with an iron fist. If you choose the latter, you can do things such as enact martial law (so,…

Oh, I am definitely not a fan of these types. I mean, I do think that internet echo chambers are not necessarily good things and in many cases could use dissenting, but thoughtful, opinions. But being a contrarian for the sake of being a contrarian (or for the sake of being just a shit-stirrer) doesn't automatically…

It boggles my mind what people will take the time to defend. Ultimately I concluded that some people must just really get a rise out of being the devil's advocate in every conceivable situation. It's not trolling, necessarily, but maybe they really enjoy the challenge in finding justification for shitty and/or…

You say "busywork", but I like to think there's a meaningful purpose to everything in the game.

I'm liberal and I invite whoever wants to poke fun at liberals to do so. And these particular comics don't offend me at all, I just find them unfunny and not all that creative. How about taking actual traits of these characters and turning them around? Like I said in another post, "clean energy" Iron Man with solar…

...but isn't the actual Iron Man "Clean Energy" Iron Man to begin with? I mean I'm not the hugest reader of comics, but even the movies mention that the Arc Reactor is a fusion-based alternative energy source. Kind of a weird choice for that gag.

Bleh, this article is bringing forth memories of late '90s Rescue Rangers fan art, none of them good.

I love how all of these are human, except of course for Sandy because duh, nekos.

Heheh, well odds are I probably WILL end up stabbing myself at this rate :D. And if it weren't for the leves, I most likely would not have the willpower to even attempt to max out any craft. But for now, I mostly enjoy the mini-game aspect of it (a constant battle between me and the RNG gods), and making some gil off…

"What are you supposed to be, some type of cosmonaut?"

It really does age a lot of older movies/TV. I was watching "A Hard Day's Night" recently, which is a fantastic movie, very funny, cute, etc. but maaaaan do those Beatles smoke a lot.

Seriously.

This is me. Oddly, in FFXIV I've been crafting more than doing anything else. MUST HQ ALL THE THINGS.

This video undoubtedly touches on many important geopolitical and cultural issues that are worthy of thoughtful discussion, but I gotta say what's vexing me the most right now is how this particular K-Pop group managed to put together a newspaper collage consisting almost entirely of papers from Tennessee.

My ACN/SMN laughed and cried at this.

This place looks awesome! I especially love the little moogle cake ^_^
