Yeah, that’s such a disappointment. On the other hand, there’s always chance for a post-launch patch or (on PC) a mod. 

I never minded it since snarking on his fuckshit with the AVC crowd helped with the constant onslaught of said fuckshit, but come on, guys, there were more than a few times where you went out of your way to mention Trump.

“Remember when I said I’d get vaccinated last? I lied.”

So glad to hear someone else say that, it’s hard to get a sense of perspective when you can’t openly discuss it outside of the community itself since it’s understandably hard to reconcile someone being a real-world pacifist and a fantasy sadist, or masochist as the case may be. (in fact, the responses in general have…

It’s a Dickbutt drawing, guaranteed. 

Glad you’re in recovery! It really does take you over, and I think that’s my whole thing here: I don’t want this fetish, I’d like to do my business without imagining knives and mutilation, and if this spurs any further research into why paraphilias happen and if they can be reliably treated for those who don’t want…

To be clear, I’m not into that stuff myself, I have a different flavor of fucked-up, haha. But yeah, I hate that it only comes up in mainstream discussion when someone like Hammer puts it in a bad light.

Yeah, I’m probably hoping for too much out of people’s willingness to be open-minded, especially after being exposed to someone taking it too far (and hey, I don’t blame anyone for rejecting the idea, a huge chunk of people are still struggling with the existence of gay people let alone violent roleplay).

I don’t have much of an opinion on Armie Hammer (ignorance on my part, not callousness), but it’s interesting to see how various sources are talking about the texts. I’m not going to go into detail since this is my main account here, but as someone with an unwanted but unquestionably there violent fantasy who also…

I think if I wanted to break up with someone via Cameo, I’d want to hire Jimmy Ray, not Sugar Ray. McGrath has enough to worry about in his endless pursuit for flight and keeping statues from crumbling. Whereas Jimmy’s standoffish attitude in regards to identifying himself seems perfect for a breakup. Then again, he…

How so? Things can sell well and still be underrated. “Underrated” is extremely subjective anyway, as it’s 100% a matter of personal opinion.

Sometimes I regret defending Born To Die so much. Not because my opinion on the music has changed, I still say it’s underrated and overhated, but just for promoting her IRL nonsense by extension.

They know what they did, enchanting us with that sweeeeeet Laurel Canyon sound!

I’m just assuming they’re all members of Wye Oak, even when the article explicitly says otherwise.

I’m used to worryingly obsessive fandoms [political joke goes here], but the Battlebots devotees still baffle me. I watched the show a few times, I like seeing robots fuck each other up as much as anyone, but holy shit, it’s a homemade RC with saws, I think we as a people will muster the will to go on even in a world…

Spin Master ran the questions by their team of Spin Doctors, but they simply kept saying to just go ahead, now.

God, that opening sentence is beautiful. I’ll never understand why people like Bootleg Michael Rapaport have such a hard time grasping that there’s no free pass to drop N-bombs. I went through my “white guy wanting to be black” phase as a teen, but even at my cringiest, I never thought “Oh hey, I can say that word and…

While I’m inclined to believe a black actor calling out shitty behavior, can’t he at least elaborate just a little? What is anybody supposed to do with any of this? 

The general plot and details, sure. But there’s no way that someone who famously revises her characters’ details and motivations on a whim stuck to even those very closely, and it shows. Admittedly, that can also be attributed to inexperienced writing, but some of the plot points feel very “first draft” compared to…

As much as I enjoy the series, and I really do despite everything, it was so painfully obvious that she was winging it the whole time and had absolutely no idea where the story or characters would go at any given point, meanwhile patting herself on the back for every allegory she came up with.
