This story is emblematic how so many people in this country love freedom for themselves, but then refuse to grant that same freedom to others. I am sure he cited ‘freedom’ as a reason not to get vaccinated. But then here he denies this other person freedom to wear a mask.

and as well-meaning and genuine characters like the swim coach from Ordinary People

It’s a $60k+ truck. It’s supposed to $60k+ truck things. Like

I’m a much bigger Star Trek fan than Star Wars, but Roddenberry was problematic as hell and shouldn’t be remembered half as fondly as he is.

Please explain how I would benefit from blocking less expensive cars from entering the market and forcing Ford and GM to innovate? Explain it to me like I’m a two-year-old. 

So is making statements like that. Why say anything at all if you’re just trying to annoy people?

Working for your own standards can be, if not, inevitably the healthier choice as fandoms become increasingly toxic over time with a successful IP product that you find yourself involved with the development with. Sometimes, it’s better to get your ideas and visions out there with a sense of satisfaction than trying

This attitude right here is exactly how he got elected the first time.

No way. Perhaps you weren’t a teenage girl in the 90s, but I was and I can assure you they look like brothers but not like twins. Billy has darker hair and (therefore seemingly) bluer eyes. He also has a narrower face and jawline. Alec has brown hair and was hell of dreamy in Beetlejuice, but he was never Billy.

It does spoil Better Off Dead a bit knowing what he later became. Jeffery Jones who played the principal in Ferris Bueller also turned out to be a creep which puts a bit of a damper on watching that too.

I think Different Strokes alone cancels it out for us Gen Xers

...because the dumpster fire formerly known as twitter is owned by a sociopathic, nazi, drug-addicted, potmark-faced mentally-disabled methhead kkk freak. That’d be a ridiculously easy question even for the $200 square on Jeopardy

Touchscreen shifters are a fantastically stupid idea.

They did once let a studio create a game outside of BGS it was Fallout: New Vegas and it displayed how lazy Fallout 3 was in comparison so now they don’t allow outsiders to outshine their mediocrity of “It just works.” A motto that infuriates me because it is an excuse to not try your hardest because whatever you do

Usually I’m against developers spreading themselves too thin, but it does seem very odd to me that BGS has two huge licenses under their belt, have added a new one (Starfield, though it is a much smaller license and wasn’t nearly as well received as TES and Fallout typically are), and yet they seem to mostly be

Let’s start all articles with quotations from Miranda Priestley. That was a riot reading this article in that tone.

I get where you’re coming from but I think the song they picked for the trailer was perfect. It was one of the featured songs in Fallout 3 that they regularly played on the radio station as you were walking around DC and even popped up in Fallout 4 too.

Eating lunch while reading a Jalopnik article that drew heavily from Devil Wears Prada was not even on my *wildest* gay bingo card for 2024. What a delight, even if the paint jobs are bleak lol

So it has nothing to do with America’s incessant fetishizing of the military for the past 20+ years? Because the colors I am seeing are Battleship Grey and Desert Khaki. You can give them whatever arthouse names you want, but if you are selling them to current & former military members and cosplay cowards, they are

When the CEO’s compensation is based on stock price, what did they think the outcome would be? The company I work for posted a $20 million 4th quarter loss after buying $750 million in stock through 2023. That loss was used to justify suspending annual raises. CEO had a $43 million compensation package in 2022. I
