You just made the four Hamburg commenters really mad. You could say they’re...

I agree. I wish they’d just acknowledged that the original Scott Pilgrim text was a shitty loser character that deserved to get buried in the past and let the losers who liked and identified with him unironically to rot along with their original copies (as you yourself called them, they’re angry white guys who hate…

Lol people are getting hung up on my hyperbole of wanting a place that defies the laws of Star Wars physics, when clearly my point is that Filoni et al made such a big deal of this place being so remote that only space whales and a giant ring made of Super Star Destroyer hyperdrives can get you there and that Thrawn…

My main gripe about this specific stretch of the season is THEY WENT TO A BRAND NEW GALAXY. That should have been gigantically momentous.

Oh, definitely. The other thing I forgot to mention is that she’s almost certainly doing these remotely, maybe even in her own house while a director listens remotely from elsewhere. She’s definitely not in a room with other voice actors, and she’s probably not being directed by a particularly good voice director.…

Because voice acting is totally different from regular acting. A regular actor, especially someone who got famous for being on TV or Film (where they are more often shot in intimate closeups), is a lot more subtle vocally, because a lot of their emotions are conveyed through really subtle facial cues.

It is extremely stupid, devoid of value, and devastating to normal people.

Here’s the best explanation I read somewhere:

Dead Island 2

Funny I’m the absolute exact opposite with regards to Chosen One stories. I find them a relic of monarchy and theocracy, and the Divine Right of Kings: a fairy tale that justifies the existence of a ruling class, while giving commoners just enough of a “maybe YOU’LL win the lottery too!” morsel of hope to keep the…

I stand corrected

Heat pump dryers transfer heat from the surrounding air and pump it into the dryer, thereby cooling the surrounding air. It’s the same process that works for refrigerators (fridges suck heat from the inside and dump it out into the kitchen, thereby cooling the interior), and air conditioners (they suck heat from the…

My concern about heat pump dryers is they’re great in the summertime when it’s hot... they suck up heat AND humidity from the house, lowering air conditioning costs. But in the winter they’ll be sucking heat out of your conditioned space, which could increase your heating bills.

This shouldn’t be all that controversial of a take, except for the part where he says it out loud.

It might not feel like Star Wars, but it seems like an inevitability in a sci-fi franchise. At some point an external unknowable and far more brutal enemy from outside known space, forces the current enemies to work together.

Yup, 3am EST. I think they realized there was no way to do a timezone-based release pattern with streaming.

Midnight releases for TV shows, timed at midnight PST, never made sense, and was needlessly cruel to the people on the east coast (hell it’s cruel for most folks in the west coast too), especially for mid-week releases.

Lmao I’m getting grays bitching as if this isn’t actually the ONLY possible take that DOESN’T make Musk out to be the dumbest motherfucker on the planet.

I don’t doubt that Musk had immediate regrets when he made the legally binding 44b offer, and that if he really could have, he would have pulled out (first time for everything!).

I’ve said before, he was given 44 billion (ish, chump change regardless) by the Saudis to squash one of the leading communication networks that helped the Arab Spring, and hobbled what had been (along with all the bad crap) a really useful source of real-time information and communication for many underrepresented…
