I realize that russ is my avi on here, but c’mon, he’s good at more than transition offense. Stealing rebounds, for one. 

Absolutely killer reporting, I’m in awe. I’m sure you did a little crunching yourself to finish this, but god damn if the final product doesn’t speak for itself. One of my favorite pieces kotaku has ever published, you’ve been so good on this beat. 

ku fan here: we gettin a shot at the tourney revoked for this in all likelihood or what? 

my hot take on this as a chiefs fan is that tyreek deserves some heckling. 

“No one is ever forced to work hard” Very strange wording.

Harry Potter is an excellent case study on why Death of the Author is true and good. I don’t think JK Rowling was thinking “ah, the hook nosed banking goblins will represent Jewish people” when she was writing the book, but it proliferates the stereotype just the same.

lmaooo

alright if you’re gonna do the “hurr durr” thing we’re done 

right, but there’s levels to that. for those more severe cases where loss of life or injury does occur, there are more severe punishments, as there should be. if you permabanned anyone who has ever gotten a dui from driving, about a third of americans wouldn’t be able to get to work. you still have to factor in the…

very happy for the hp fans. if something like this happened for atla/korra i’d die, i imagine their level of excitement will be similar if this comes to fruition.

I mean don’t get me wrong, driving drunk is bad, but just banning someone from driving forever seems pretty punitive. It’s not like they get off easy right now, and in about 80 percent of the country you pretty much have to drive to work and live. 

lmao wild take 

did you get to see any side attractions or mini games? thought the theatre and the variety of mini games in the first one added a lot of character. 

I will, thanks for the recommendations

That’s an awesome story! The “no anime” rule seems weird, but yeah, I’m sure they’ve seen some shit that led to that decision lol

thanks for the heads up! 

it’s been so good that i had to look up what songs they were licensing, and, lo and behold, all original music. wild

I didn’t read this whole thing in fear of spoilers but I’m watching through it all for the first time and through the first 12 or so episodes I think they’ve been “successful” one time?

Hey Kirk, did you watch past season one of Korra? If so, did seasons 3 and 4 in particular change your view of that show at all? I think Korra hits in a lot of the same ways ATLA did. It has it’s own moving redemption arc, it has that underlying progressivism, and the villains are some of the best I’ve ever seen on…
