A young Sheev seems to fit right about perfectly in the mess of a universe that Disney’s Lucasfilm has built for itself. They did away with the old EU only to replace its sillier elements (increasingly bigger megaweapons, discount bin Vader proxies, and retcons to connect every last character) with... Increasingly…

Republicans could lock down the immigrant vote if they made that distinction clearer instead of running with Trump’s “shithole” narrative, where you can’t possibly be a worthwhile immigrant if you come from one of “those places”.

I’m being interviewed for naturalization in a few weeks. I have enough pro-market views…

Coddling them isn’t working, so fuck it. They can get a dose of reality.

I read that in Tom Papa’s voice. Now I need some Chris Thile mandolin goodness and I can call this a good day.

Scientific fact: Any post that starts with “Ah yes” is 99% certain to be followed by a load of meaningless bullshit.

The only way to be able to carry out 100% of your campaign promises is if your party has enough of a majority to push them through. You don’t get those by not voting.

I was born and grew up in Venezuela. In the middle of Hugo Chavez’s march to authoritarianism, the opposition parties decided to sit out the 2005 congressional election, fully expecting the depressed turnout to de facto illegitimize the election, thereby putting pressure on Chavez to come to the bargaining table.

Instea…

A flaming sword to stab out the Night King’s heart. 

They should just call them “retro games” or “pixel-art games”. I get that “8-bit” is a handy, memorable nickname, but there’s a difference, fucking hell.

Calling it now: Jon will die by Daenerys’ unwilling hand.

He’s already pledged the North to her, and he’s too damn honorable to walk that back even when he learns he’s Rhaegar’s heir.

One of the two of them is supposed to be the Prince(ss) That Was Promised, Azor Ahai reborn. And the original AA killed his wife in…

Black people can be horribly prejudiced, just as anyone else. Anyone (including a white person) can call a racist black person on their bullshit, fuck optics.

That’s midlife crisis Legolas right there. Which is much cooler than I would have expected.

How to go from my favorite writer on Kotaku to Hamno-level idiocy in one article. Nice one.

I live in an apartment right now, so I haven’t had trick or treaters for a couple years. At my previous place, I’d get a steady stream, though. I didn’t really mind the older ones, except when they just stood there waiting to be rewarded for having walked up to my door. At least actually say “trick or treat”. You’re…

I have a full-size SNES, and a USB adapter so I can use my SNES controller on my PC (currently using it to play the Street Fighter 30th Anniversary Collection). No mini needed.

There are people living on less than a dollar a day in many parts of the world. Your last meal out could have fed them for months. How do you live with yourself?

This was always gonna be the case. Too many classics + cost of securing the rights = Tough choices.

Classic/mini consoles are a great buy for casual fans or newcomers to the retro scene, but gamers who grew up on the originals will always have a list of dozens of classics that were left out. I’m getting one because…

If they have options, then what was your prior concern about? Like I said, your posts come off as though you’re just a Rockstar fanboy concerned about the game selling well.

Using the plight of the devs as a sales tool is pretty low. Impressive.

This going to sell millions of copies, you think your one copy will make a difference?
