Earthbound was a game I randomly stumbled into and rented at a Blockbuster the year it came out, then I rented it again, and finally, at some point, quit lying to myself, and just bought the damn thing. A rental that very quickly turned into one of my favorite games of all time, and one of that absolute hallmarks for…

After detailed and thoughtful analysis like this, I really don’t understand why the “debate” continued and became so toxic and aggressive

Fucking tax dodgers

The rule of thumb for how many actual cases China has detected of any given disease is to multiply their reported number times two and then add ten thousand.

Look, I’m not saying we should cut off all ties with China until the CCP gets its act together, but can we at least entertain the idea?

That would make Nvidia’s price gouging way too obvious.

How about you enjoy the movie for its own sake, and not get all tied up into canon. Making a villain less cartoonish, without contradicting what we know of them already, is a fun exercise, and I think Cruella succeeded. It’s a very entertaining movie.

A swamp is a healthy biome rich in plant and animal life.

That $2.9 billion contract is less than two percent of Bezos’s net worth. He could pay it himself. Musk could fund a competitor completely out of pocket as well.  The government loves means testing...why can’t they do it in a top down manner?

Why in the world did you “cry like a baby” over someone who you did not know and a game you do not play? pre-pandemic 150,000 people per day died which has obviously gone up, you must be a very weepy person if you cry for every stranger.

Yeah, this really hits home for me. Whenever I hear of someone dying from this it shakes me to my core. I was incredibly lucky...I fell to the ground with my phone just within reach. 

The rest of the comments - “How DARE you suggest that young women not profit off of their bodies using Twitch!!!!1!!11!one

At first I thought you were just some neckbeard pissed that you might not be able to donate half your Wendy’s paycheck to bikini streamers anymore.

The fuck are you talking about? Your comment was ludicrous hyperbole and you know it.

Interesting, so this hot tub streaming is a loophole in the guidelines used to dress provocatively..

Yeah because there’s no space at all in between being a nun and “hot tub meta”.

I can’t imagine video games will experience much of a reckoning — given that presumably the Japanese voice actress of Ramlethal is a Japanese woman — and the overwhelming response to that information would be an ambivalent shrug

If the pipeline control systems were exposed to the corporate network, then yes, they too had to be shut down to protect them from potential exploitation. But if they could still operate the system, just more slowly and with manual recordkeeping, then no, they did not need to shut down the pipeline operations. It’s a…

Let’s not even get into how Princes Andrew (paedophile) and Michael (literal traitor of the Crown) are not being asked to relinquish a damn thing. The irony is that if they dropped the Sussex titles bestowed on them by Liz, they would revert to Harry’s (unremovable) title by birth - Prince and Princess Henry of Wales.…

I love every single thing about this.
