pokemon is already a capitalist take on pokemon. the trainer captures a bunch of animals and through exploitation of the animals labor, often to the point of being beaten unconscious, the trainer gains wealth, power, prestige.

This might be the first Star Wars movie that is met with a collective shrug and *meh*. At least before 9 we had a sliver of hope that they knew what they were doing with an overarching story.

Oh I feel ya.  This feels like the blandest, safest choice they could have possibly made.  It’s clear they don’t want another trilogy debacle, so one-offs designed to make as most money as possible and then fuck off are the order of the day.

I can’t explain exactly why, but I think this news shaved a few years off of my life expectancy.

“Actors kept thanking a non-existent body at the Golden Globes”

In fairness, being a non-profit was just a tax dodge for the HFPA so at least they’re not trying to pretend otherwise now.

Earlier this year, as a response to their years-long track record of racism, corruption, and general popular disfavor, the Hollywood Foreign Press Association dissolved and rebranded as a new, for-profit organization owned by Penske Media.

No one even wanted to host the Golden Globes. Last night, more than ever, it was obvious that being an actor in Hollywood is an optics game. They’re not there because they want to be there. They’re there because they have to be there to play the game.

Hammond says it in the book that he never really brought back dinosaurs. He and Dr. Wu created monsters, they weren’t going for scientifically accurate, they were going for something that would sell. So I think it’s okay for them to not have feathers in JP. :)

Representation in this context refers to the gaming news desks that cover games and the development teams whose labor produces the games we all…

Identity politics: the clamoring of affluent, upper-middle class types for greater access to board rooms, positions, privileges, etc., on the basis of gender, race, ethnicity, etc. That is what the author’s reference to “representation” means in this context.

“Grand Theft Auto VI will feature two protagonists, a male and a female”

Cool...

“and return to Miami, the location of its popular Grand Theft Auto: Vice City spin-off”

Neat...

“and will also be more cultural sensitive following an internal evolution of Rockstar’s workplace.”

Umm... wtf does a politically correct GTA even…

This article is very unclear on what was actually offensive about his comments. I don’t doubt that he said some offensive ridiculous things, but this article has no actual examples and just calls XQC a scumfuck with no actual explanation.

Wouldn’t it be great if people could just live without their next yearly copy of Elfboy and Lard ass?

Here’s a spoiler.... the fat idiot will save the princess from a big dinosaur.... and the elf twink will save his princess sister from the pig demon god entity aspect avatar evil oink oink king.

Just NOT buying the next…

Sounds like you can go back to your sexual assaults, grooming, and basement dwelling stinking ways and no one would miss you.

Is anyone making money? Are people profiting on it?

if players have to disable half the game to make it competitive + they somehow feel entitled to complain about that— as if nintendo are the ones making the mistake—then i’m sorry to say the players are the ones who are mistaken in their complaints. there’s absolutely nothing wrong with making up your own rules, but…

Im wondering if her obsession drives her to find a real world Pokémon lifestyle, and thus begins her descent into the dark and bloody world of illegal cockfighting.
