Fred, let me tell you a bit about life: dont bother seeing your parents so much, that sounds like a real pain in the ass.

OK, first off, he says regularly commuting to see his parents, not daily.

I disagree. I think it’s a great idea writing-wise because the ferry scene utterly disproves everything about the Joker’s philosophy, showing that instead of some grandiose statement about the human condition, he only proved that if you subject someone to enough abuse, they might snap, particularly if they are already…

I think Joker is only an interesting villain in relation to Batman, to the point where I think he shouldn’t appear in anyone else’s stories. The Joker works well when he’s a test to Batman’s commitment to actual justice over revenge, and a chaotic contrast to the order Batman tries to preserve. In any other…

Really? It seemed pretty frickin’ obvious when I saw that movie that Winston ‘betraying’ Wick was really faking Wick’s death.

Straight-up betraying Wick after they killed all of the High Table’s soldiers and assassins makes ZERO sense.  

Honestly I have to give it this over Steam Machines however: it seems like it is an actual streamlined/standardized product compared to the laissez-faire “We’ll just give some specifications to third parties and let them manufacture it themselves” that I recall Steam Machines sounded like.

My worries are more regarding…

The “steam hardware (except for VR) doesn’t receive much support after a year or so” is what makes me leery about this.

Well, that and the really uncomfortable looking buttons placement. But I’d have to hear more about that first. 

No he did not kill him, that was a myth Grant Morrison made up. Here’s the script Moore wrote out for that last page and nowhere does it indicate that Batman kills the Joker (https://screenrant.com/the-killing-joke-batman-killed-joker-grant-morrison/).

I’m pretty sure Moore expressed regret in writing that book, pretty soon afterwards.

if you want to get riled up read Batman: Devil’s Advocate.

Hoo boy....this will be as successful as Steam Machines and Steam Link!

But yeah I agree that it is time to move on from the Joker.

Can you blame them? That Joker from the Killing Joke was a great Joker. It gave us forever-classic Jack Nicholson’s, Mark Hamill’s, and Heath Ledger’s Jokers.

Seriously, Joker is one of the most overused, overhyped villains in comic history. Mostly because nearly every Joker story since the 80’s is in some way been derivative of The Killing Joke.

“Let me be the first to stand up and say that I want to express my sincere apologies to the Asian community and the Asian-American community,” Smith said.

So Stephen A gets dragged on TV & forced to face Jeff Passan MLB reporter and an Asian American reporter and Rachel Nichols isn’t made to look at Maria Taylor or any other black female at ESPN? Yeah imma head out. Yeah what Stephen did was shitty but y’all notice who they made face the music right? No taking Rachel…

While in grad school at NYU many moons ago, I worked for an atelier who made the grandest of grand gowns and whatnot for social circles I had no idea even existed. A simple blouse from the designer easily went for north of $900—which while jaw dropping in the monetary sense—made PERFECT sense when you saw how the…

The D’Angelo A is extremely exciting, the comparison to Drive less so. But Cage is a lot more interesting than Gosling at least.

That all the Democrats in the US Senate could walk out, and there would still be a quorum to conduct business. Thus, the Democratic senators cannot do what the Texan Democratic senators did, because instead of gumming up the system, it would be handing it over to the Republicans without contest.

from Iceland here. and I’m working what can be called a warehouse job. how this is implemented is usually employer discretion with employ input. usually vote when implementing started. in my case I get around 2-3 hours I can use to leave early every Friday. in my case replacement for what I do is not always easy so I…
