Hana Kimura’s tragic death hurts every time it’s brought up. Gone too soon and because of such stupid fuckers, too. She would’ve been a rocking part of Stardom going into 2023 and the world has been robbed of a bright star.

Metroidvanias have been one of the most popular genres of the past decade and Prime even tells you exactly where to go when you run around. It’s more friendly than any From Software game or even titles like Tunic or Hollow Knight in this regard.

Both Bebop and Blockbuster were doomed from the outset. The Witcher made them money, but season 4 is basically dead on arrival because of the whole casting drama.

I’m honestly fine with this decision as I found season 2 underwhelming, but it’s sad that Netflix decides this is too expensive but is fine throwing money at complete dogshit like Cowboy Bebop, Blockbuster or a 4th season of the Witcher that people will only watch out of bile fascination.

Kanji isn’t confirmed gay, but he’s definitely struggling with a queer awakening. His friendship with Naoto is all about that - he’s attracted to her even before it’s revealed she’s a woman who is dressing up due to societal pressure and he’s visibly uncomfortable with it.

Neeson as Marlowe? Holy miscast Batman.

Not really. Bill’s Town in the game is pretty much a prolonged action sequence, its goal is pretty much to show you how Joel could end up if he abandoned his connections like Bill did. They invert his story in the series to show that even someone as isolated as Joel or Bill are able to rebuild if they let others in.

God I hope the Yakuza waifu is just Goromi

Hey, there’s plenty of nuance in Sisi Jiang’s pieces - provided they are pieces about shilling for gacha.

It’s still a garbage studio that produced blatant anti-Muslim propaganda, owned and founded by far right extremists. Don’t support them.

War Mongrels is made by the team behind IS Defense and Hatred, so please don’t support a studio lead by racist former member of an organization that has since been criminalized in Poland (ONR).

Roiland hasn’t been really contributing to the show’s writing since season 4. It’s kind of noticeable especially last season which began to properly examine Rick’s toxicity and move towards some sort of solution to his character arc, those episodes felt veery Harmon-esque in nature.

Makes me think of a more cozy The Friends of Ringo Ishikawa, one of the best games to capture the essence of growing up and youthful listnessness I’ve ever seen.

This quadruple sucks. Jess is great and brought back some of the analytical energy Austin brought with him during his short tenure and while the spirit was different, the new GB crew was doing cool things. Jason Oestreicher who was a great presence too also got fired, which is triple fucked up because the man is quite…

It is impressive they found someone potentially worse than Barsanti. Does Schimkowitz even write reviews? Because that’s going to be a game changer in the AV Club writers meta if he’s awful at those too, instant ascension to S-tier and must pick.

...or she’d be jobless for years as CBS’ army of lawyers stretched the court case.

Is that true though? I remember this debacle first rearing it’s head when Rowling stated that someone shouldn’t be fired for saying sex is real.

Her understanding of the issue does seem pedestrian, I agree, and quite fearful, but I also just don’t believe she has any antipathy toward trans people themselves.

No, she fervently denies them both labels because she uses “woman” and “female” interchangeably. This whole debacle happened because she took umbrage at the term “people who menstruate” and insisted that it erases the concept of sex, while confusingly merging it with gender at the outset of this whole debacle.
