Why she doesn’t sign her e-mails ~ is beyond me.

I do find it interesting how no one seems to be talking about them making Baron Mordo black. Cause...yeah, this is comics Mordo.

I am certain Tilda first composed her emails on parchment with a silver pen and inkwell, and it is her assistants that typed it into the computer

I get why Cho said what she said, as per the references in the previous kinja article, but what stings is the bit where Cho was chiding Swinton for brining up a project where she was working on with Asians or Asian Americans. It feels very strongly like Cho let Swinton walk right into that trap, and then Cho used it…

It was less about talking about Pokemon in the workplace and more about dropping the task at hand (meeting a deadline!) to go on a Pokemon Go sidebar.

Re: Pokemon Go—We were having a major meeting at work with our partner company, and somehow the game came up and one of their guys completely stopped focusing on the task at hand and went on a total Pokemon Go nerdout. It was unreal. My boss, who never played, was dumbfounded.

What a tragic, frustrating situation.

Not to undercut the end of the article, but I had something magical and human happen to me in game.

There pointedly is no score, no goal to be achieved other than to go as long as you can without dying and kill before you are killed, or your countrymen are killed. No amount of faux reverence could capture actual war, and to try would be an insult. You decry the loss of lives lost but not felt, but that is the…

Thank you for sharing this story, it brought to mind an interesting Battlefield-related encounter I had with a Vietnam War vet in a little cafe in Evergreen, Colorado many years ago.

Battlefield 3 had just come out and my small group of airsoft-playing friends in Colorado were all about it. After a day of photo shoots…

This is but a small excerpt of my experiences in Battlefield 1, yet it aptly summarises them.

Operations..... being on the tip of the spear of a big push... Its exhilarating

It has been 9 years since I deployed to Iraq. I spent 15 months there doing convoy recovery. Since I got back I’ve dealt with at times crippling PTSD, and about three years ago my therapist recommended I try playing a more realistic war game, as it apparently helps many people (though honestly I don’t know how). At…

I’m ugly-crying and it’s not even Christmas yet.

When I watched the single-player campaign game-play, what stood out to me right after the words saying it was basically a pointless war and then seeing the characters die over and over, was EA/DICE’s decision not to include Axis soldiers as some of the numerous characters it seems like we’ll be playing in the single…

I thought it was pretty brilliant the first time I saw it, but the more I’m exposed to it the more problems I see. Besides the mediocre AI, the hit markers and HUD completely undermine the effects of the carnage. They act as a counter, a score tracker for the lives that you take. They are numbers and signs among blood…

That is a fantastic ad. It has been awhile since I’ve seen Joyeux Noël, so I thought this was actually an excerpt from the movie.

There was something we lost within ourselves, there was something found. The following happened in WWI, in the middle of so many men dying a peace. It looks like EA might have gotten something right once.

Black troops were seen as throwaway units, and given to other countries during that time. They were denied medals and recognition by the United States.
