Yeah, the thing about Aykroyd is that he’s a crazy person and Ghostbusters was the unique result of his crazy being properly aligned with the right people, in the right place, at the right time, to produce something genuinely fantastic. But that’s the thing, from what I understand, he actually BELIEVES all this…

Oh god that was ten years ago? I suddenly feel extremely old.

Man, Dan Aykroyd has been saying Ghostbusters 3 “is being written now” at least once a year for the past 20 years. Not to mention it’s totally pointless now since Bill Murray won’t do it, and Harold Ramis is dead.

I remember that Waldenbooks. I’d shop there sometimes as a little kid. I think it had closed down by the time I was entering my big comic-buying/friend-with-car-having phase of life in the mid/late 2000s, or at least stopped selling comics. By that time I tended to go into Falls Church, there’s a place there on route…

I backed my chair away from my computer and started applauding after reading that. It’s the single most incisive and true and righteously brutal rebuttal to my fellow white people who get upset over PoC’s criticisms or even mockery of us I have ever read. I’m currently copying the URL of this mailbag and shoving it in…

I’m of two minds. I agree this is over the line. You just don’t go to people’s houses and shout shit like this at them, especially when they’re in the business of convincing as many scared, racist, gullible white people (I know that’s heavily redundant) of this exact sort of thing that by and large, doesn’t happen.

From my understanding, they’re not the same Guardians, just the same species. There were a few guardians called the “Templar Guardians” who spent millions of years locked up with the First Lantern guarding it from anyone who might find it and try to use it. When the previous Guardians who were in charge of the Corps…

I loved this line. I also loved the ways the movie showed that Kylo Ren was really only half-right. Yoda’s appearance and conversation with Luke were one of those ways.

Hard agree. As to Bernie, his problem is a philosophical one. He’s built his entire worldview on the premise that all inequality stems from economic inequality which is just... not... correct. Everything he does and believes in follows from that.

I love Hockey Babadook. He’s the perfect Philadelphia sports mascot. Insane, possibly violent, but weirdly charming about it at least until they cross the felony line. Definitely wouldn’t look out of place demolishing an awning or eating literal shit in celebration. Only mascot I can see throwing batteries to express…

I lived in the DC area, either DC proper or inside-the-beltway in Northern Virginia for the first 24 years of my life. In all that time, neither me nor anyone I knew ever set eyes, let alone walked upon the earth of Waldorf.

Goddamn, and here I was thinking that commuting from Falls Church to Rockville was a journey. DAMN.

Based on my skin you’d think I was part of some breeding program to create the first entirely translucent human, but the test results are surprising. I was part of a DNA study so I got the free ancestry breakdown and all as part of that, and yeah, it’s mostly the pasty countries. British isles and Germany, which is…

You know, I honestly think in his private thoughts, if he ever gave the thought to it, Donald Trump would welcome another 9/11-scale attack. It would be the biggest possible gift to him, an excuse to indulge all his worst impulses unchecked.

As with most things Superman, my first instinct is “Adapt All-Star Superman.”

I can’t wait for the cast to manifest their psychic guardian spirits and for the show to at long last fulfill its destiny of being exactly Persona.

I dunno. I mean I saw the film, I enjoyed it enough, definitely thought it was Spike’s best recent work, but... I also agree with a lot of the critique? The film often drives right up to the line of making a really cutting, uncompromising point on racism and complicity only to swerve away.

I’m level 120 on my main (alliance Paladin) and I have some thoughts. I’ve been enjoying it, but I’ll admit something feels absent right now. I don’t think there’s ever been a power shift between expansions quite like this, everyone just feels dramatically less powerful in a way that I don’t find interesting. The…

This is a public service announcement. If you’re writing a comment that’s going something like “Well I obviously abhor harassment campaigns and she shouldn’t have gone through this and has my sympathies, but...”
