I read that as 007 years old and wondered why is it bad to be James Bond aged. Isn't any age a good age to be James Bond?

Considering who's the one drowning in debt I say it's more likely to happen the other way around.

Jesus, just admit you're avoiding gluten as a diet regime. If Emmy Rossum had a real problem with gluten, she wouldn't smash her face into a bagel, I promise.

The very fact of its existence represents the issue. One whose undercurrent is held throughout a number of the comments below the article. There being a diversity booth is an honest statement that there's an inherent problem within gaming culture, and I'd be amazed if anyone honestly thinks there isn't one. We're

You're saying they should be content. This is a position you take when you don't like someone but barely tolerate their existence, lest you reveal more about yourself and suffer backlash.

Are we supposed to be impressed or something?

How is it pretentious? The PAX organizers literally asked people to submit comments and criticism to help them do it better in the future.

Where? Every quote basically sums up to, "It was good. We can definitely improve stuff, but it went well."

Awesome job perpetuating the "us versus them" bullshit. Those people that would love a safe space are not some "Other" that is going to take away your precious toys. We're gamers just like you. We just want a space where we don't have to hear bullshit like this.

The question is, what do they need to do to make you folks happy? Nothing they're doing subtracts from your enjoyment. If anything, it adds or does nothing. But if you take every reaction or opinion from them so harshly and use that to judge them, I wonder if you'll figure out that you're the reason these things

Not speaking for Nathan here, but I think that one might be able to feel that at least a small victory has been won when we stop hearing desires framed in what "you folks" want.

All of the comments below this article are fucking despicable and highlight the very need for a safe space. I fucking hate gamer culture if these comments represent it in any capacity.

It's rape in the book, and it's rape in the show. That being said, I can understand the argument that the book rape is less awful than the show rape.

I suspect they filmed the scene the way they did because people had started to like Jaime too much. He was never supposed to be 'the good guy' because there is no good guy in GoT. There's bad, worse, and despicable. There are more than a few fans who needed a reminder of this- a slap in the face to tell them "Just

I'll just quote doggiehowser because he or she seems to be the only one to get it and there isn't much more to add.

This is GRRM's response from his blog:

At no point in watching the abuse and rape in Game of Thrones do I get turned on. I think calling it sexualized is a bit of a stretch.

The reason for the change was because a lot of the audience was beginning to root for the guy who pushed a kid out of a window.

If you thought Jaime's rape of Cersei was "sexualized," you might just be the only person on the planet who thinks that. The entire scene was shot to make it seem horrible and brutal. It was done right in front of the corpse of her incest-born son, for christ's sake. Compare that to the depictions of consensual
