The snarky response to this is “...there’s a Magic The Gathering Hall of Fame?”

I had assumed, from the first moment I saw that in Ultron, that this was how it worked. I dunno.

World was already ordered by European academics performing thought experiments. That’s the entire blinkered black-and-white perception of gender and race that is putting this poor woman through hell in the first place. We’re trying to undo all that and create something humane. Calling “ivory towers!” on the…

Sadly, it’s absolutely true that there are people who have done heroic things in the past who lost the plot of the now and lived to become the villain.

St. Louis is a town where there is at least a dim chance of frozen water occasionally, so I’m fer ‘em I ain’ agin’ ‘em.

You’re burying the lead here: there’s a human-pong player with the mononym “Kaka” out there in human-pong land?

Honestly thought this was baseball news from Deadspin until I looked closer at the picture. It seemed worth noting.

COUNTERPOINT: if you ARE really invested in the characters, it was fuckin’ rad as balls.

I liked this concept better back when it was just called “state fairs”.

If you can have one thing on the meat in the bread and nothing else, just the one, to define it as a hamburger, it’s ketchup. It’s not the BEST or TASTIEST or most... elegant or anything but... it’s definitional, it’s foundational.

It’s great to see that the giant from BIG FISH is still getting work.
