In Japan, they’re called “fujoshi,” or “rotten women.”

I hear that.

Breath of the Wild holds a special place in my heart because it was the first game I’d played in 13 years, and I’d originally dropped off in the Wii era because games suddenly felt like homework to me.

As the article mentioned, he wasn’t uncomfortable when his character is actually gay.... like in Striking Vipers... To me it sounds like it just like how it’s possible for a male and female to be extremely emotionally close platonic friends without sexual innuendo, it should be possible for two guys to be close and…

The Wakandians put in a switch that makes him unable to have feeling in it so he can always enjoy the stranger. 

I can sorta see multiple angles on this.

On the one hand, any artist forcefully rebutting why LGBTQ folk might see themselves in a TV-depicted relationship like the one between Bucky and Sam is going to reasonably get pushback. ESPECIALLY if you’re going to forcefully rebut an underdepicted minority group. And there’s…

Yeah, other than the outside influence of time travelers like the way this Loki got the tesseract, I just don’t get the logic of Variants.

Clapton’s best stuff was Blind Faith, imho.

I was about to type I have always loved this joke, then saw Malingo’s comment.

Anyway, I have always loved this joke.

Well he has certainly admitted embarrassment at that particular rant and made some efforts to atone for it. But I still can’t get my head around somebody whose entire “thing” is interpreting black art forms (predominantly blues, but also, briefly, reggae) being that big a dick about the presence of black people in…

Quality counts for a lot, and Lynch’s movies tend to do great things in terms of atmosphere and a sense of the unknowable. Someone compared them to dreams, and I think that’s a fair analogy. The imagery remains powerful and idiosyncratic in a way that haunts you after you leave the theater. It’s not hard to see why…

One of my favorite things in my writing classes in college was when we’d get assigned to read a short story by someone else in the class (all anonymously), then read it aloud in a future class meeting and talk about the themes and what the story was about. It was absolutely fucking WILD to hear some of the things my…

“I don’t know, buddy. But let’s find out” is now my go-to answer for virtually everything. Thanks Dave!

Batman is a vanilla superhero. Missionary vanilla. Maybe people who eat pussy like Batman—we don’t know. Frankly, we don’t want to know. It’s a market we can do without.

Oh man! I thought I was the only person who watched this. I thought seasons 1 and 2 were solid. Once you got past some of the bigger holes in the initial premise, it was a pretty good examination of the political dynamic that it set up. I loved watching the machinations of the Norwegians and the Russians.

Dark on Netflix. Excellent show.

A more interesting story would be why you happened to be wearing a “Commish” hat yourself that day.

In 1995, I worked for the SF Giants and many players and staff were invited to the grand opening of the SF location. We were encouraged to drive to the front for photos on the red carpet and I was accompanied by a couple of rookies who didn’t have a car.

And they can take Rainforest Cafe with them.
