You’re probably right. Better hope you never get sick.

Okay, I am not gonna say streaming isn’t a real job, but you do realize that describes almost every job ever, don’t you? Most of us are doing all of the things you just mentioned, for a fraction of the money and none of the fame.

Okay, so not the most exciting Direct ever. BUT:

You’ll be missed, Patricia. Best of luck!

Oh how I wish I’d gotten Fallingwater when I could have. It’s such a beautiful model. That thing and Orthanc are the two modern Lego sets I’m really sorry I never got.

So this is where the Sad Puppies went.

This is the worst. It could have been such an amazing thing.

Little understatements there: The Heroic Trio is a really, really fun movie that started my love for all three of its leads. Executioners is straight-up trash and is so incoherent I’m not even sure it was supposed to be a Heroic Trio movie - I have a sneaking suspicion that it was going to be something totally…

When I was in the army, everybody’s favorite movies to watch in our downtime were ridiculous action movies. I’ve seen Rambo 2 and Die Hard at least a dozen times in barracks. We would spend the entire movie counting shots between reloads and making fun of inaccuracies. Never watch Red Dawn with a bunch of grunts…

I used to be a farmer, and I second everything he says. We didn’t have autosteering in my time, but the work does get unbelievably monotonous. I spent so many nights in a tractor creeping along at ridiculously low speeds for eight hours straight. The sound of the engine and the sprayer unit are hypnotic, and falling…

Well, I had almost the exact same reaction the first time I spotted neon yellows for sale. And they look really, really good.

Bought mine on launch day, my kids and I have played on it almost every day since then. Never had any problems until the stick on my left Joy-Con stopped recentering, most likely due to my nine-year-old being a little too rough with it. Bought a pair of Neon Yellow J-C, which I had been coveting anyway.

Surprisingly, Japan was actually a refuge for European Jews during the Holocaust. Thousands of Jews fled to Japan when they couldn’t escape through Europe, and the Japanese refused all Nazi requests to turn Jews over to them all through the war. Not to say the Japanese were perfect hosts - they forced most of the Jews…

There is actually a very small Jewish population in Japan, and one thing I’ve learned in life is that you can find shockingly racist and xenophobic folks - especially antisemites - literally all over the world.

I feel similarly. I would have loved to have that scene, but I feel it’s better to save the whole story of the Dora Milaje for another movie. There were a couple of aspects of Wakanda that they really didn’t touch yet and are apparently changing - Hatut Zeraze, White Wolf, the Beloved - but they had so much to…

I feel like an all-bard party would be a great role-playing opportunity if the DM prepared an adventure appropriate for the party. Just throwing a bunch of minstrels at a standard D&D adventure is, unfortunately, more of a suicide mission.

Um, the White Wolf has been around for over twenty years. You might want to actually read the comics.

Seriously, with all due respect to Reggie Hudlin he’s barely qualified to write footnotes for Christopher Priest’s BP run. I would bet solid money that if Priest had never written Enemy of the State, we would NOT be going to see a BP movie next week. One of the greatest comic book pleasures of the last few years has…

Star Wars fans make EVERYTHING more toxic. You can’t fucking win with them anymore. Your movie is pretty much guaranteed to be either too much like the old movies or not enough like the old movies, rehashing everything we’ve seen before or straying way too far from WHAT STAR WARS REALLY IS. No matter which way you go…

Yeah, everybody else has said it but I’m gonna say it again in the hopes that maybe someone in her circle reads the Root: Lauren, you are so beautiful and you don’t need to cover your head with anything. I know that might not bring much comfort to a kid who at this point just wants to look like everyone else, but it’s…
