That depends on what type of feminist you are though - I was at a lecture where the (female) lecturer defended the view that women, and men, ARE sexual objects of desire, and that this is healthy and normal. What is unhealthy is when women (or men) are seen as JUST objects of desire. Her view was that the classic…

To be totalt fair to Playboy, and without the jokey snickering, the articles in Playboy have always been excellent - they’ve always tried for sex-positive rather than slut-shamey, and liberal positions on women’s issues (and articles supporting them) are hardly new to the publication. My wife is a pretty hard-core…

A word of warning on the Corsair Survivor: I’ve owned it twice, and it’s terrible. The first time it lasted six months before suddenly giving me garbage as a file structure. I had everything backed up, and it was work’s drive, so I got another (different brand) from the supply room and forgot about it. A few years…

Expansions aren’t bad... It’s just that I’ve never played one through since I was a kid, and Secret Missions came out for Wing Commander. I mean, either they are added missions and come out ages after the main game, in which case I’ve already completed the main story, and have no desire to go back and replay the game…

While I agree it’s a bit sketchy and it’s been handled badly, I also think people a) STILL don’t seem to understand how Kickstarter works, and b) are attacking this game for the wrong reasons. One of the very first games I backed on Kickstarter was a little game called “The Banner Saga”. You may have heard of it, it…

I follow Chris’s reviews because he is incredibly valuable to me - I almost never agree with him. I wish people would understand that a reviewer with different tastes than you isn’t “wrong” - they’re just as necessary to identify as reviewers who share your taste to a T.

I’ve had women say that don’t want me to use a condom because it kills the mood and “they want to feel me”. Several different women. Once, drunk, I went along with it, and spent 2 weeks in HIV-test-results-wait-terror. Point is, it’s not just men. Women are idiot assholes too.

Swedish devs made both games (“Rymd” means “Space”, “Kapsel” means “Capsule” and “Resa” means “Trip”.) Completely different dev teams, mind.

“Rymd” = “Rimmed”, Resa = “re” from “regard, “sa” from “Lisa” ;)

...Chris Roberts already had a fully fleshed out website (nice looking one too) fully dedicated for people to throw money at them right as the Kickstarter launched .

Meh. People look at crowdfunding, and they see a pre-order. It’s not. When I see something cool on Kickstarter or wherever, it’s more akin to buying a stake in the developers dream; I’m fully aware that it might fall through, but if it doesn’t... wouldn’t that be cool?

Just tell him that. That’s 99% of everyone’s problem, right there, they play these “guess what I want”-games because they’re too shy and conflicted and scared to say what they want. Just say “I’m not looking for anything serious, but your dick is AWESOME, and I like to hang with you.” Guy will either really dig that…

Exactly, well put.

Nah, they’ll make money three ways - first, they need to make sure everyone at home upgrades. Most people will, since it’s free. This will have the knock-on effect of people “knowing” Windows 10, which in turn will make businesses (who have to pay) much more likely to pay. Microsoft is still the king of the workplace,…

I did this yesterday on my Macbook Pro with Boot Camp - I hadn’t even started up Windows in a few months, much less reserved a copy of Windows 10. Worked flawlessly and immediately.

Your argument reminds me of Ian McEwan’s son’s teacher. I disagree strongly about your views on who “owns” a character, they strike me as not juvenile, but certainly...freshmanny? Is that a word? Anyway. Agree on GSAW, for the rest of the reasons you stated, though. It’s enough to know that this version of Atticus…

Tricky subject. I think you should be co-credited. But “Cheeks” is clearly a new piece of art, and not a “minor change”. While he’s an asshole, you’re being disingenuous. Also, acknowledging that women use appropriation but do it “right”? How the hell do you know the whole point of this art isn’t specifically to shine…

Uh, as a Swede I have a couple of observations:

I’m going to get so much shit for this, but I knew Kristen Stewart was into women. Because she has a lesbian chin. There, I said it. But it’s true. Seriously. I will take a blind test to prove it, and I’m not trolling, and I don’t even want this to be true, but women who love women have special chins.
