Wolf’s Rain, Cowboy Bebop, Tokyo Godfathers, Macross Plus, Samurai Champloo, Space Dandy, Carole and Tuesday: This is a murderer’s row of anime classics over the past 3 decades, and this woman’s responsible for writing a good chunk, if not most of them. I grew up with them and still am in awe of them all.

This is one of those cases where both Reeves’s and Moss’s reactions are completely understandable.

I love how enthusiastic, weird and genuine Keanu is. Seems like a fun guy to hangout with and talk engines.

It’s a Final Fantasy game and you pick one of the most normal looking hairstyles to complain about lol.

And to be fair, they did as much as they could. Upgrading the existing servers and extending queues, and such, but there’s a limit to what they can do with just the current equipment.

Worth noting they also did try to prepare for this, they tried to buy more servers above their actual value but they just couldn’t get more than they did.

Out of curiosity I made a facebook poll on the FFXIV Endwalker group as for whether people thought the measure made up for the issues. Currently, I have 839 data points

The article also describes a 2007 party Oneal attended, along with Kotick, in which “scantily clad women danced on stripper poles,” while a DJ “encouraged female attendees to drink more so the men would have a better time.”

tbh I kinda assumed this already

In it [Oneal] said he was paid less than her newly appointed counterpart, Mike Ybarra, and felt “tokenized, marginalized, and discriminated” during her time at the company.

So it turns out he’s a greedy prick who also mistreats women? Is he trying to run for President or something?

This will always remind me about ‘Boots’ Theory of Socioeconomic Unfairness. Where the rich person can afford a good pair of boots ($50) that will last for many years whereas the person can only afford to buy an okay pair of boots that still gets wet ($10) and last maybe a season or two.

She does go on to explain that if she sells the property in the future for the same price, she’ll owe taxes on that $3 million again. But until that day, she’s basically getting an interest-free loan from the government.

I think Final Fantasy XIV is responsible for a bigger hit to WoW's numbers than New World. 

Nothing more humbling than finding out a game you’ve never heard of is the most popular game in the world (I mean that sincerely).

As someone who spends at least a little time each week playing video games and watching porn, it does my heart good to know that I’m a disappointment to Josh Hawley.

Dude, can we put together the crazy timeline of Kal Penn’s life...
- Penn stars in a stoner-comedy with Neil Patrick Harris
- That gets him a role on House M.D.
- He leaves that to work for the goddamn President
- And he falls in love with a man who’s cool with drinking beer and watching NASCAR on their first date

4500 men enter. One man leaves.

There are two things that are a good gage to just how screwed up the government of a country (or state or city) is — the scope of its homeless and impoverished populations. If they can’t address issues that simple, then there’s an iceberg of other issues going unaddressed as well, because the focus is not on serving…
