The proper response to people who are butthurt about something like this being “woke” is “shut the fuck up”.

Yeah, Yabushige is predictable in that you can count on him to put his own neck ahead of any loyalty. Toranaga clearly expected him and Blackthorne to ally and look for a way out last week, and was in some way banking on that (even if as just a way to get Mariko to Osaka).

I had so little interest in a show about that guy from Rogue One whose story we know the end of.

I’ve been playing 40K since 1996.

I mean, Andor is at least in the discussion for the best thing that has ever been made in the Star Wars universe, including the original trilogy. For something that’s been as culturally impactful as Star Wars has, that’s a big deal.

Did the ninja’s kill the baby? Was too dark to tell.

I don’t think Ishido intended for Mariko to die. The shinobi were there to kidnap her so that she couldn’t go back to Toronaga or unalive herself. They didn’t try to kill her when the got into the bedroom, they were trying to carry her away.

Yeah. I get that Taylor and Beyonce both have very sensitive, easily pissed off fanbases, but those comments are pretty anodyne. Probably not even the bitchiest things Courtney Love has said too or about someone this week.

yeah, “i respect and praise what beyonce is doing but am just not into a pop star’s country album” isn’t the spiciest take out there

I’m not saying painting a fake door labeled “medical supplies” behind a trap door would work on players in the games but like

Let’s be honest, most of them hate it because the main character is a woman.

Brandon Lee’s incident was a bizarre and never before seen confluence of circumstances that changed basic protocol and everyone involved wasn’t just contrite, but it sent them into a spiral of depression that some barely recovered from. And there was a court case, but it was civil, so behind the scenes, and a private s…

I don’t get what the “purists” are up in arms about.

I never played Fallout Shelter, the vault management sim, but I guess concentrating so much story here is something for those fans?

I wasn’t around during that, but I think the addition of live rounds is probably the key difference. A squib, improperly checked or not, is still a reasonable expectation on a movie set. A real bullet is not. Also, I believe a lot of modern safety regulations regarding guns were drawn up in the wake of that incident,…

I don’t necessarily disagree that 18 months is harsh, but I’ve been basically incompetent at my job hundreds of times and never got anyone killed or even injured. Actually given Cogent’s information, I’d say what might have been an overly harsh sentence actually seems much more reasonable. I mean, say what you will…

While Gutierrez-Reed is probably right in considering herself a scapegoat for a production that went off the rails in terms of safety, there’s also this:

It’s funny (and also sad) how much the Fallout gamers over on Steam hate the Fallout show because it isn’t canon. And because the primary protagonist isn’t murder-thieving her way across the wasteland like they would.

It was an ‘eccentric’ setlist. Obviously a number of classics and great album cuts, but considering it was 1 hr gig in the States to a general festival crowd, far too many from their low-key new album. Something closer to a condensed version of their Hyde Park sets, plus 1 track each from last 2 albums, might have…

Literally why do you even care. Most people who associate Bethesda with the licence probably weren’t even alive when numbers before 3 existed, so he’s probably more of an expert than you are.
