“Alexa, tell me a better joke.”

I’ve pretty much cut Marvel out of my pull lists since they’ve seemed to make a conscious decision to (hurka durr) “avoid politics.” At least DC hasn’t been shy of throwing in gay, lesbian, and transgender side characters, all the while allowing writers to genuinely embrace Batwoman’s love life. I also appreciate how…

Kai Ma Loves Burners:

I was going to google Ouya to make some jokes about that but then this happened and that’s good enough for me

They can write to Trump all they want, he still won’t understand how tariffs work. He’ll still go on thinking that they’re a fee that the exporting country has to pay. No one will ever get it through his skull that he’s imposing taxes on imports, which are passed along to American consumers.

Cool.

Just have to give props to Bob-Omb Is You that’s brilliant.

R.I.P. Mystery Mushroom. Probably one of the coolest features in the first game.

No costumes killed SO much hype I had for this game. Half the levels I made in the original used them and a lot of the levels I had wanted to make here are going to be pointless without them.

...we reveled in the wonder of boyhood.

“‘Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater’ doesn’t hold a candle to my boyhood game of ‘eating a snake.’”

“Dead Space” doesn’t hold a candle to my boyhood game of “Dying Violently in Space”.

Great list! I had completely missed “Die” and "Sobek"! Personally I am very surprised that there isn’t more buzz about Isola. So far I have loved it and the art is fantastic.

I’ve never watched the series and was looking forward to the Netflix release. Is there a better version out there I should be aware of?  I would hate for my first viewing of this seminal show to be “the wrong way”. 

At the same time, we shouldn’t mollycoddle bigots so we won’t upset their tender wee snowflake sensibilities.

For anyone wondering, “camtono” comes from a viral video of a little girl who can’t pronounce “ice cream”:

I’m partial to Mr. Sunday Movies’ summary, which is insane.

I have been following Noelle since the early early days of her blog and Nimona as a web comic. What a beautiful community grew there in the comment section that I was lucky enough to be a part of. It is strange to think about how young she was then. I have seen her go from this struggling young artist to this…

All I can hear in my head right now is the Q&A before the Critical Role live show earlier this year, where everyone was talking up the ridiculous powers they got to use at level 20...and Laura, who played the ranger, sardonically putting in, “I can shoot TWO arrows!”

I’d argue that you can easily get more “value” out of this game than you could BOTW. I adored botw but once I finished the game I have no need or desire to return to it, and even if I did I’d just be replaying the same game I’ve already beaten. With Mario Maker you can literally play an infinite number of new levels…
