Just the final episode, so you can safely skip most the credits. But not the episode that has American Pie playing over the credits because everyone must always listen to American Pie without skipping.

I have 4 years of QA. What you did... I can’t even think you thought you would get a promotion. That’s a dumb way to think. Your job is to find those kind of things. You are(were) being paid to find and report that issue. If no one entered the bug before you did, the problem is the whole QA team, not the company.

This is why you unionize. Except we won’t fucking do it because as Americans we’re apparently broken at such a fundamental level we think we deserve this treatment to get ahead. And who told you that...?

MAGA Men, worst Capcom game ever.

Also, odds on which one of these guys is going to be the next one to send dud pipe bombs to CNN? 

Again, I don’t think you’re necessarily wrong in your analysis—though, burning enemies who refuse to surrender/submit is categorically different from burning hundreds of thousands of unarmed peasants who’ve already surrendered, and in earlier seasons Daenerys was presented as somebody who regularly insisted on that…

A friend of mine (with whom I disagree about almost everything in entertainment, politics and philosophy, but we always keep it polite) is insistent that this scene should have had some big monologue from Carol about her conflicted feelings over having to turn against this valued mentor. I tried to explain to him how…

A friend and I were talking recently about how fascinating - in a depressing, soul-crushing, infuriating kind of way - it is that, next to actual politics, science-fiction entertainment has become the biggest hotbed of right-wing politics in American culture. *So much* of the seminal stuff from the early days - whether…

When Yon-Rogg is doing the hype up right before she just punches him hard enough to have him fly back forty feet, I just rolled my eyes because it was just so familiar and then that perfect action and line.... Not going to lie, that scene basically pulled the movie up a whole grade for me.

I love love loved how they handled this scene.

If you’re intending to monetize it, then I think so. Like thoseFuckJerry assholes on Twitter and Instagram who steal shit from professional comics and regular people alike, strip off their identifying info, and then post it as their own material with an ad next to it. Fuck those people to death.

Arya spent almost two years in the House of Black and White training.

Sansa got smarter based on time and experience/ years being discredited and allowed to observe. The Hound was Arya’s travel buddy for a spell, saw her pre-faceless men kill some people with the “I’m just a sweet girl, all hungry and sad...STAB” and she left him to bleed out with no one around so “cold bitch” from The…

That wasn’t part of the deal, Greyjoy!

I really hope they keep leaning into everybody just being weirded the fuck out by Bran. Dragons flying around and zombies on the march and nothing makes people more uncomfortable than the home schooled kid who cuts his own hair.

No, entitlement is bitching about loot drop rates being too low.  Entitlement is DEMANDING that Bioware make certain changes.  Entitlement is people thinking that they are OWED a legendary each time they leave Fort Tarsis.  These are all things that happen on that subreddit.

“This iteration of Dragon Age 4 was code-named Joplin”

I half-expected this to say “We code-named it Jesus because we’re that fucking amazing. #BiowareMagic”

“the team used high-end performance capture in order to ensure that the characters couldn’t be turned into embarrassing GIFs and plastered all over Reddit”

You…

I teach effective team strategies in the context of an introductory composition course, and this article is a case study of how to mess up a team project. There is so much to highlight, but I want to sit with the first point where I thought, “You’re up the creek without a paddle”:

No leadership and surprise surprise the frostbite engine are to blame. Why EA continues to shove this inadequate garbage on there developers just to save a few bucks is beyond me. The man hours spent fixing it vs licensing cost can not be worth it.

I don't buy into this interpretation of the destruction of the relays. I went with synthesis, and although the relay apparatus are blown apart, there's nothing to indicate that the worlds next to them are razed. The impact wave didn't even destroy the Normandy.
