Looks like fun, not least because it’s a role where De Niro doesn’t appear to be just phoning it in/doing it for the money.

Digitally delisted and physical copies short-lived. The fine print on the preorder page states that it’ll be available digitally til March 2021.

Though Microsoft and Google would be submitting a central streaming app to Apple for review, they wouldn’t be submitting every single game available on the services, which seems to be the main sticking point here.

So do they expect Netflix & YouTube and other streaming services to submit each movie individually for review by Apple? No? Only the games? Huh. Wonder why that is. 

That old icon is clearly a vagina. I mean shit, they even have a little bulb at the top for the clit. I’d almost be more impressed if they’d kept it.

Would it be too much for her to ask her delightful, role-model, hubby Barack why he spent more effort making sure Bernie didn’t get the nomination that he did speaking out against Trump?

Alex Trebek: “Star Citizen, Half-Life 3, Winds of Winter, Doors of Stone, functional American politics.”

I’m sure they want running water and a functional BIA before they care about how deeply white people should care about the term Spirit Animal.

Hell, the very letters we are using to communicate in are a Phoenician invention, modified by the Greeks and then Romans.

Wait, do I have to be Italian to say “pizza is my spirit animal”?

No, there’s no problem. It’s a really dumb thing to be mad about. It’s about as significant as a non-christian saying “Jesus Christ” when they stub their toe. Who fucking cares?

To be fair, if anyone tried to tell me the phrase ‘spirit animal’ is “cultural appropriation” I’d probably yell at them, myself.
