So I’m guessing Joy is the tall, slender, mod girl with the great skin and the contemporary haircut, and I’m guessing Sadness is the short, fat, dumpy girl with glasses.

This is a lot of flashbacks, a lot of deja vu, a lot of remembering dynamics — and it’s… a thicker substance to wade through than I’d thought.

Oh GOOD, now I can spend another 160 hours breeding chocobos and collecting cards.

Walkers were in the first chapter of his book. The resurrected headless corpse of the mountain was a new thing. As is the hilarious witch zombie mom stark. Face it, dick, The books are objectively shittier than they used to be.

The Wheel of Time was the archetype for a good series that turned to shit. It’s the all time king for stories turning into explosive diarrhea

Not the walkers, those are just weird alien magic, and that’s fine. But lady stoneheart and the dopey mountain brought back as a ridiculous zombie giant, perhaps with no head... It’s all just gotten stupid.

The last two have been about “pieces” because Martin is busy stretching what was a tight series of books into a bloated series of books. Where you see “pieces”, I see “irrelevant scenes of total nonsense, with increasingly stupid magic. And zombies”. Success ruins serial art because the impetus is to continue forever.…

The books are not better. They are also becoming disasters, but in a different way.

It’s exciting to watch a series of books slowly crashing and burning because an author doesn’t know what to do with them to stretch out their success, be turned into a television show slowly crashing and burning because directors don’t know what to do with them to stretch out their success.

The author literally linked to how to calculate “game score” in the words “game score” found above, and it bears no resemblance to the simply adorable multiplication efforts you’re putting forward up there. Given the fact that you’re a writer on this site, shouldn’t you regard it as a courtesy to maybe know what the…

I’m quite excited to play this..... in 15 months, when I find it on sale for 15$ in the Best Buy discount shelf.

Part of what makes them so compelling is that, like a few other kinds of non-housecat, they have round pupils that contract to points, and not slit pupils. It makes their eyes appear far more human, and thus more interesting.

In silicon valley, doesn’t 1500$ get you two discount immigrants to do all your cooking and cleaning for you? I mean, what exactly are we disrupting here? Those poor housepeople...

I’m super excited that you’re directly equating the promotion of hate speech with a fringe, men’s rights interpretation of this piece. That’s a real treat for me. Super-accurate comparing there, man.

Sure, maybe you find the visualization of a rape “not very well-done”, and I guess that’s a perfectly appropriate criteria. Out of curiosity, what exactly would be the proper visualization of a rape that would really provoke a reaction with you? Better lighting? A better script? More effective open-hand slapping?

I’m about done with this conversation. I’m super happy you “work in the arts” and have “studied with plenty” of artists. I’m very excited that you didn’t lead with that, and with any sort of justification for why you feel the way you do other than “it’s boring”.

Wasn’t this pretty much a foregone conclusion when the words “Pakistani court” and “behind closed doors” were linked?

Well, ok. I get the sense that you’re kind of mired in a little bit too much “bored modern cynicism” to bother trying to be enthused by provocative art pieces, so I guess that’s a thing. Performance art isn’t classical art. Performance art is designed to provoke living experiences. A dude gets shot in the arm on…

That’s how I feel after having read this. Horrified. Possibly having a stroke.
