I certainly don’t think I’m in the industry. I’d like to be, but I don’t think this is how I get there.

Genuine love for video games, perhaps. Part of the reason I got so many shifts in my local Toys ‘r’ Us before it closed was because most of my coworkers claimed they had never played a single video game before, and I either knew a lot about most of the games we sold, or had read up enough about certain others online…

I’ve met men who use “I’m going to liquidate your bank account and donate it all to charity so you can’t get it back without looking like a massive asshole” as a threat to their wives before (source: close relative did this to his wife), so I’m inclined to believe her.

I wish Miss Chechik the best. This should not have happened, and as someone who (despite totally different circumstances) had their pain ignored or dismissed as “melodrama” & then was eventually found to be a serious issue, I empathize.

It also sticks in my craw that there’s people on other websites acting like this is…

Various reasons I stopped going to the theatre as much, even pre-COVID:

* Too expensive
* Some of the niche films I wanted to see weren’t being shown closer than one theatre over an hour away
* Other patrons were extremely rude and were not allowing me to enjoy the movie in silence and peace like I had wanted
* Now that…

RE7 in particular has “images you can smell” energy (if that makes sense).

As a horror/crime show fan, I’ll be glad if “smellovision” never comes to fruition.

I was never a huge fan of the way the Mystery Inc. writer phrased it (I’m bi and I like to refer to myself as gay), but I’m honestly happy for Velma. I like the little “Batman/Catwoman” dynamic she has with the fashion model lady.

There’s a good post on Tumblr somewhere that I always think about whenever the topic of trigger warnings comes up. The OP was physically abused by someone who always made pancakes after they hurt the OP, and OP had to stop eating, or even looking at pancakes, as a result. The human mind isn’t always rational. One of…

I figure a lot of famous people are sent lavish gifts they don’t actually use (i.e. the Queen of England’s golden Wii), so it wouldn’t surprise me.

The way I define my sexuality as a bi person is being attracted to my own gender (female) and other genders (nonbinary, genderfluid, agender, male).

I know what I want personality-wise for a partner. I am looking for these values regardless of what gender the person identifies as. I would ideally like to have…

My knowledge is limited to maybe two clips of him asking lesbians to rate men or something. I also have zero gaydar despite being queer myself.

My only knowledge of him is isolated Billy On The Street clips, so I admit I always thought he was a “cool straight ally guy”, not gay himself.

Part of me wants to check this film out despite not really being into romcoms as a genre.

I remember liking Jett Jackson as well growing up. I’d see the lead actor in other things from time to time, and it really crushed me when he committed suicide.

There’s also a Little Mermaid cartoon with a deaf black mermaid based on an actual fan of the show who had unfortunately passed away.

I’ve tried pointing this out to him, believe me. Parents/guardians will allow their kids to ride bikes/scooters and throw balls around the store and not have any issue with their kid doing it (if they even notice the kid is doing it at all and not just totally ignoring them). My manager’s general response is, “You…

I was hoping this would be TikToks about “things I heard strangers say out of context that sound like they would come out of the mouth of a GTA NPC, not an actual person,” and not people acting like pre-character-development Bakugo from My Hero Academia. I’m sorry that humanity keeps finding new ways to be terrible.

What’s frustrating is also that a lot of gacha games allow you to do romantic/sexual things with characters who look and act like minors (“it’s fine, they’re actually 7,000-year-old dragons”), but then go around and flag games about consensual romance/sex with adults.

I have a lot of respect for Artemigi. I know how it…

When I was a kid, my parents gave me a few simple rules when out in public:

1. Whoever runs the business makes the rules. If I don’t follow the rules they’ve set up, they can kick me out. If an employee tells me not to do something, I stop.
2. I do not own anything until I actually purchase it. If I damage it, I have…

The whole Earthworm Jim scenario sucks, especially since the same creator also worked on the still-pretty-groundbreaking stop-motion point-and-click The Neverhood. (There is another clay-animated video game where the character is explicitly nonbinary, but I cannot for the life of me remember the name.)

I think I liked Z…

I apologize that I’m not already familiar.

I love horror movies from the few I’ve seen, but because I’m the only one in my family with any interest in them, I didn’t grow up with them, and some of the horror fans I’ve asked for recs were kind of snobby and cliquish about it. So there’s a lot I don’t know.

After they made such a big deal about supporting her from misogyny, too.

What the hell.
