Genesis Does, brother!

I own the games. In cart form and in multiple VC editions, and I will play them through an emulator if I please. Nintendo’s welcome to sue. 

Picking up old consoles for a song when they’re superseded by the next-gen one is a thing to this day.

Raspberry Pi + RetroPie + Old Skool Tools case + iBuffalo SNES-style USB gamepad. Done. To hell with Nintendo and its forced scarcity. I’ve paid for these games enough times throughout the last 20 years.

Then admit that gesturing to “ancient England” or any premodern history to explain this is wrong. I’m fine with the explanation that racial systems existed when Tolkien wrote his work. I’m not fine with justifying it using racialized versions of how premodern people saw themselves.

Maybe not by American standards.

I save my sympathies for the poor tumor that has to endure a John McCain.

Or fucking pick one up and check! Why do we need any more steps than that?

Yep. “Use a magnet” (which people have to remember to flip, anyway), “hang a dishtowel!” “do anything except expect people to pick up a plate and check!”

A racial concept that never existed at that time, and that biologically doesn’t exist today. So it’s anachronistic to even use that justification.

I’m Latino, with both black and white ancestors. I also love Tolkien’s world, and I’m the kind of fan that groans and cringes at stuff like Gandalf clocking Denethor in Jackson’s ROTK. This “Baranor” reeks of tokinism, of the most ham-fisted kind.

while setting aside every other cultural group also present (Jutes? Romano-Britons? Picts? Norse? Normans? Celts?)

lol no

Yet [Super Mario Run] was less of a moneymaker for Nintendo than might have been expected, due to the pay-once-and-play model.

My mind knows what the right thing to do is, but if it were my own flesh and blood in that situation, I doubt I’d be able to do it.

Men are doing something, so Madeleine is upset.

It’s Jezebel. You are to be negative and snarky towards everything male. Just add “bro” as a prefix to anything men do, and mock it. Then complain about “toxic masculinity” when they respond negatively.

He’s still got a prostate, though.

Kinja cannot be fixed, it can merely rotate among different shades of awful.
