Fuck Rogue One.

This film has some of the best cinematography and visuals in all of Star Ward.

It’s also, narratively, dogshit - a confusing mess of a picture where character’s motivations change on a clock set to Scriptwriting 101 - this is the time in the act structure where X happens, so X happens regardless of whether or not it…

Man I wanted to like this but I found the first few episodes incredibly obnoxious, with the only highlight being the engineering officer who kept changing jobs and getting applauded every time he did so because in the future we only work because we want to better ourselves - it was a good joke grounded in Star Trek’s…

I want Oracle and Cassie Cain back.

The ‘big breasted women exist too’ response is always disingenuous, because it neatly sidesteps the issue of ‘it’s fucking gross that the only way you can find a character attractive is by radically altering their physical body to fit your ideal - if you don’t find someone attractive don’t lewd them then.’

I mean, as always, this is cool and all...

But bring back Oracle and bring back Cassie Cain.

DC won’t. They won’t ever.* But their ditching of a disabled character and an Asian character to go back to the status quo of an able-bodied white girl... as a company it’s spent well over a decade now making the most boring,…

I went back to rewatch the show about a year or so back.

And Pierce sucks so much shit it’s crazy.

“And given the popularity of the Switch, much of the world already has a portable gaming device.”

No. It doesn’t.

As of May Switch sales were around 85 million, out of a global population of somewhere over 7.6 billion. Now that’s a lot of Switches, but it’s only about 1% of the global population.

That’s not ‘much’ of the…

I mean it’s pretty clear he left basketball because his dad was murdered and it kind of made him feel real shitty about everything.

“After a rough launch that was plagued by delays [and people finding the game lousy]...”

Parasocial relationships have existed since the birth of media - it’s just a term that describes the relationship a consumer has to a piece of media, even something as benign as ‘disinterest’ to a creator is as much a parasocial relationship as slavering worship. Parasociality is not internet-specific.

What you’re…

Christ but that bar is so low.

The closest America came to having a decent human being be president is Carter, who decided to wait until AFTER he left the most powerful office in the world to really buckle-down and be as decent as possible.

Earth is not, actually, in any way shape or form overpopulated - this is a fallacy born of capitalism that creates false scarcities and then uses debunked malthusian ideology to argue that the vast quantities of human misery are due to poor people breeding a lot, and not to the scarcities and destruction capitalism…

Cool Dads don’t slaughter other people’s children through expanded drone warfare.

A tunes playlist isn’t really going to make up for that.

And that’s what led you to be a Disney villain, correct?

So... what if Minecraft was RealMyst?

There’s a scene in DS9 where Odo basically lays out how totally broken straight relationships are. I’ve always had a hard time liking Keiko O’Brien because frankly she doesn’t seem to like very much about Miles, and barely tolerates his interests - and then the show both wants us to be on Miles’ side well at the same…

Are straight people okay?

Because honestly the number of straight relationships out there that seem to be based solely on physical attraction - e.g. ‘we got married even though we share no interests and my spouse actively belittles all my hobbies when she doesn’t outright ban them’ - are insane.

You make it sound like the Democrats’ tactic of looking concerned while doing nothing for fear of disappointing right-wing ‘centrists’ won’t be effective in protecting American democracy.

“We deliberately built them wrong! As a joke!”
