Thank you! It was a first con in general, and it got better as the weekend went on. Honestly, the part that gave me the panic attack was when I made a rookie move and tried to move through the crowd during the parade and literally getting stuck in a sea of people as I’m trying to move, I’m not someone who gets

Thank you for posting this! This was my first Dragon Con, and while I didn’t have the best time (I decided to go at the last minute and had no clue of the scope of what I was getting into, and that almost induced a panic attack) I look at all of this and I can’t wait to go next year and jump in feet first!

One of my main takeaways from this Labor Day weekend is how fucking awesome it is to sing with a bunch of drunk nerds “White and Nerdy” is. Probably the highlight of my first Dragon Con

I have a friend who takes his autistic son to concerts because his son loves music. He loves the concerts and the headphones tones things down from 11 to something more manageable. I can totally see these kids where they LOVE to watch the Eagles at their home but without the hearing protection, feel like they can’t go

And Millenial is “anyone younger than me and is more than slightly annoying to me”

Now playing

I was so happy that they made an official version to the Build Fly Dream trailer that a fan made a while back. It was KSP to the letter and the fact that the developer recognized it and paid homage to it warmed my heart.

Do we need to have a conversation on the legacy of Obama and where we can improve? Absolutely. But now is not that time. This needs to be solely about turning up the heat about Trump.

I believe the MD-88 and the MD-90 (one is a smidge bigger) actually have metal plating on the last two or three rows because it’s right next to the engine to protect from any shrapnel. (Now the reason that plating is there is because people were killed that way, but this is the airplane business, most of your safety

If I have to live through the hellscape at least give me The Mooch and a fifth of Olde Ocelot

Same, went in with an “Oh yeah, sure I saw the demo they did a while back but I’ll take in more eye candy” to a very loud “Oh FUCK!” Already pretty excited about the game, but this brought it to another level

I feel like this could be an excellent blueprint for a type of biographical dramas, one that focuses on telling a less peachy keen version of the story but one more honest to the actual events. Katrina would be phenomenal second in this type of show.

It was so hard to watch. When the kid was drinking from his canteen and you heard the rounds fire off, there was a pause and he resumed firing is when I sank really far into my couch. Those guys were using a Mosin-Nagant which holds 5 rounds. The older soldier fired 8 or 9 shots. He had to reload which was that pause.

The only successful defense of the prequels is that it birthed Prequel Memes which are an utter delight but is of questionable value when looking at what it actually did for Star Wars as a series.

At least this version of a no guard rails crony capitalism? Yeah, you are not wrong.

Loans to pay your rent? The Economy is fine y’all! No need to worry! Unemployment is at 4%! The Stockmarket is the highest it’s ever been!

Maybe Deus ex Equus?

Cyle Clayton infuriates me because as its a besmirchment on Kyle’s because some dopey parents REALLY wanted to name their kid Kyle but Dad HAD to have the superhero naming convention.

It’s not even rich, it’s rich and own a business. I know a few pilots who most would consider “rich” but are getting rinsed because they are on a W2. Those people who make north of six figures but on payroll are fuming at their tax bills. 

What’s the ideal amount of work travel?

This is what I have come to expect of Georgia anytime a space thing happens. Always terrible conditions
