Shannara was the Applebee’s of fantasy shows.

I wouldn’t panic at this point. A lot of early shots from GoT, LotR (the movies) and other fantasy productions looked like hot trash until you actually saw them in motion.

Is there confirmation of any kind that Gaga didn’t pay various medical bills and give him a ton of money already?

Let’s not with the “all fandoms suck.” Bullshit.

Apparently the lesson of the month is don’t fuck around with the California DFEH. It’s good to see a government organization not getting cowed when they’re going up against wealthy companies.

If the goal was historical preservation, they wouldnt be charging people for faster downloads.  If he kept them without distributing them, thered be no case.

No... Just No... This was a bad rom site that charged for access. There is zero chance anything of value was lost. The effort this person put in was the bare minimum just to make some quick cash and they did it stupidly too, this is why they are being so badly burned by Nintendo on this. ANYTHING that was on this site…

Man I am so happy for her! I miss her presence here so this is nice.

If this were a five person team, or the studio was in the middle of nowhere, you’d have a point. But they have a 21-person team, in Montreal (a large, diverse city with a lot of software dev talent), and they somehow ended up with 20 white guys out of 21?

Maybe they can borrow Mitt Romney’s binders

“We totally interviewed some women and non-white people, but just by chance happened to only hire a bunch of white dudes. MERITOCRACY!”

I’m confused why Lavar Burton wasn’t the IMMEDIATE choice. Nothing made more sense than having him host.

She’s not a great choice either. 

I’ve read and reread The Dragonlance Chronicles a number of times in my life. I credit them for really getting into D&D as a pre-teen. These were my favorite books back then. That Elmore cover just fees so cozy to me. As an adult rereading them I can still find them pleasurable but flawed. The last time I read them I…

Been thinking about revisiting these recently. I remember the Scholastic Book Fair versions of this particular saga (broken up into more, shorter books) were my introduction to the world of fantasy literature in elementary school.

Honestly, the dream job at this point would be to retire somewhere with legal weed and…

I did a serious double take, I’m glad someone else noticed. I thought I was going crazy “surely I would’ve heard of this”.

Off-topic: I agree that Peter Thiel sucks, but I don’t fault Hulk Hogan for Gawker’s demise. Publishing someone’s sex tape without their consent is an absolute sleazeball move, even when it’s of a big dumb wrestler.

i, for one, am not in the market right now to buy console for my kids just yet.  but i always remember that article, probably from Fahey, saying to boot up the console, login, update it, before putting it back in the box and ready to give to a child.

“what a powerful question” is one of those things you think is a joke people make to make fun of shit like this but unfortunately is a real thing people say.
