Now if only I could get these games to run under wine, thus lessening somewhat the impact of a “I’m sure I’ll have the money for a gaming PC soon” impulse Steam purchase far, far too long ago.

You’ve really gone out of your way to avoid saying “a bunch of deeply pathetic misogynistic racist had a snit fit because they’re shit people” and I’m not sure why you though they warranted the effort.

Well I’d hope not. That trailer looked vile.

Just because they were sold by the same company didn’t make that flamethrower part of the engine block, guys.

So is the Hormone Monster in Big Mouth named after the Little Monsters monster?

Dark Crystal’s problem is that Jen is completely useless - quite literally. He has one talent - the ability to read - and the only time he uses it a character shows up thirty seconds later to explain the writing anyway. He spends the entire movie being hauled around by Kira, who has all the talents and does the brave,

Labyrinth holds up extreme well, but you like it for different reasons then you did as a kid. You’re able to notice how light and insubstantial the plot is, and that the characters are pretty one-note - but you’re keenly aware of the raw talent on display, the incredible design, and the simple pleasures of a story

“You wanna see Cersei Lannister casually peer pressure Sesame Street’s Elmo into drinking?”

No, of course I fucking don’t that’s vile.

Yep.

And every single one of them found themselves stapped in the back and dumped in a shallow grave whenever the Democrats thought they could hold to power better by shifting rightwards again and walking back change.

Regan decimated fifty years of labour’s struggled during the eighties. When the Dems swept back into

:...the articles suggested that Disney felt it wasn’t the right fit, as the company already has its own series of similarly crafted adaptations, including this summer’s The Lion King that no one asked for or wanted.”

Oh, look, the only good take on this whole page of the most unbearable whinging.

The plan is you pass several torches and then make a career as a fire juggler in Vegas.

Pelosi said, though she’s fine with Ocasio-Cortez and co. continuing to “[r]each for the moon,” at least rhetorically, until the Dems take back the White House.

Hey, you know what happened the last time aDemocrat said you should reach for the moon?

YOU WENT TO THE FUCKING MOON
NOT BECAUSE IT WAS EASY BUT BECAUSE IT WAS

Whatever. The real question is how long until I can shit on all the ideals I hold dear, render every good thing in this world I have done invalid, and hate myself with loathing so intense my skin blisters?

That is to say: how long until Hunie Pop 2 comes out?

The Good Place - along with a few other shows - is a hopeful sign that certain segments of creators have realize how limiting cynicism ultimately is as a format for adult television.

I’m so glad this film is getting something of a revival - seeing it a few months ago on Blu-ray it was still breathtaking what a visual masterpiece it is.

It’s also an unbearable tedious bore of a movie with flat acting and carboard characters but god-damn Naboo? Naboo looks incredible! The pod race? Zero narrative

My biggest problem with the Scotts show is my complete and total inability to remember where I left off in their trip through U2. Was it at... that album? Or that... other album? Or that album I like called... by its name?

You want to go even deeper I recommend Serhii Plokhy’s Chernobyl: The History of a Nuclear Catastrophe

Haven’t watched the show since... whatever season it was since Archer got shot. Think I saw the first episode of the enxt season, don’t remmeber if i watched the whole thing.

My memory is that the “get shot season felt kind of aimless and unfocussed: individual moments that might be great would get squandered in
