Me before reading the article: Ach, it’s probably going to be something so innocuous that doesn’t need to change...

Me after reading the first paragraph: Oh... yeah... I can see the logic in changing that... and laud it...

Slammed the star so fast...

(Seriously, I’d take a couple hundred bucks a month just to be in charge of bringing my English major to bear on the egregious run-ons and GUM mistakes this site showcases daily.)

I bought the game earlier this year after hearing so much hype about it. I dislike the gameplay (lotta deaths feel super cheap to me) but I wanted to experience the story first-hand. I’m about halfway through and... I don’t get it. Every few hours, a Spartan pulls a heroic sacrifice to move the plot forward, or gets…

Here’s my five-minute take: It’s a trilogy.

Part 1: From Eden Prime (with makybe some Shepard backstory like Akuze sprinkled in as flashbacks) through the end of the Citedal sequence and him becoming a Spectre.

Part 2: Getting Liara, Noveria, and sacrificing Kaiden on Virmire. Becomes a very “end of ESB” movie then.

Part…

The word “complaining” doesn’t mean “saying something I wouldn’t say.”

Cawthon responded to the public backlash by reiterating his beliefs while also claiming to have love for the LGBTQ+ members of his fanbase, despite supporting powerful people who have done everything they can to harm them.

Freaking awesome response. Thank you. I’m an “aspiring pacifist” who still finds himself fantasizing about giving as good as I got back in the day. I’m glad you take the position you do. There’s no point in saying trite things like “be better” if we’re going to use the “enemy’s” tools and tactics whenever it suits us.

Just an FYI for everyone:

I’m thinking the Xbox One controller has to be the best for me (haven’t played on a Series X/S yet and I don’t feel like getting into the minutae of elite and other specifics). A controller has to be big enough to fit comfortably in my hands without so much negative space, so pretty much anything before the…

I understand that it looks bad on the front end, but it seems to be trying SOME middle ground between “everything is allowed and the Devil take the hindmost” and “Don’t worry, we’ll just decide what’s best for you.” I think either of those extremes would be easier to sugarcoat and “sell,” but they’re both less…

So are genderfluid/genderqueer/etc. people considered “trans” as well, or is the trans flag an “umbrella” flag at this point, or is SonicFox a trans woman, or this there a better way of putting this than any of the above?

You might like a book called God Jr. by Dennis Cooper then. One-sentence synopsis: A guy gets high and plays his son’s Banjo-Kazooie save file to try to understnad him after he dies in a car wreck.

Kinda sounds like you’re saying, “There needs to be a woman on the team, and by ‘woman,’ I mean, ‘Woman who will vote the way I want her to.’”

Turn off motion blur.

“Hey, would you like to see less? Would you like your sense of vision to be less useful? Would you like it if every time your character (checks notes) FREAKING TURNS, the world around you gets murkier?”

Rather than revel in the thought that he’s learned nothing and will sulk off somewhere to quietly foam at the mouth about being defeated like some kind of cartoon villain, I hope he really did leave on good terms and will find something positive and constructive to work on from here on out.

This question’s been asked either here or on io9 before, so I won’t share previous submissions for my favorites, but I found myself reminded of Phyrexian Hulk recently, and I love imagining an old man rasping out the rhyme:

“It doesn’t think, it doesn’t feel,
It doesn’t laugh or cry,
All it does, from dusk till dawn,
Is…

Well, to be clear, that is Jeffrey Characterwheaties, the actor that protrays the character “Jason Mantzoukas”.

I’d be interested to hear how you think the “gay blood” thing is a religious idea, becuase after reading And The Band Played On, I’m pretty sure the restrictions have to do with the prevalence of AIDS in the 80's and the rule simply not being changed since then.

Gosh, you just reminded me Frank Caliendo got his own TV show while Debra Wilson wasn’t given a pay raise...

Obligatory post to say that this is a great reminder of which show had the best intro of all time.
