I was just having a discussion with a coworker about this kind of thing. He says people are too soft and whiny and that sometimes you have to get in fights. I say that I’m a pacifist and I think everyone treating each other nicely is a good thing.

I’m sympathetic to older folks that haven’t been able to sign up for vaccines due to a lack of internet access or internet illiteracy. If possible, we should be doing mobile vaccine clinics and going to assisted living centers.

My favorite of the watch animals and chill streams is Shrimps247.

I did not know who they were, but I’m glad I do now. There needs to be a documentary about this family.

Very sad news.

what gets me is that the “save the world” would be perfect for giving interesting characters backstories and having them play out though skill distribution, but that never went free and cannot even be played on switch or tablets which is a huge part of their market, so instead we have this pastel colored nightmare…

There’s a good chance that this is the last Steven Universe animation we’ll ever see, and honestly, there’s no better way to go out than with a message of compassion that also reminds us how awesome Greg is.

I love the animation style!

I’d just like to take this opportunity to mention how much I love Tom Scharpling, the voice of Greg Universe, one of the truly great unsung heroes — hell, superheroes — of modern comedy. He effectively invented comedy podcasting with Jon Wurster on The Best Show On WFMU back twenty years ago (before podcasting or…

Maybe deal with the fucking pervert in the production? that’s what Rogen should have done. But ok, let’s attack the person that denounces him.

Rogan goes way back with Franco and they run with the same crowd offscreen so it’s possible he knew even more than we do. I mean these allegations were already old news in 2017. But we’ve probably all been friends and/or workmates with people who turn out to have a creepy side and it’s more difficult to cut them off…

Her concerns were valid, Franco’s a creep. I’m not sure about use of the word bribe here. This sounds like she said she was going to quit, the higher-ups wanted to keep her but weren’t going to fire Franco, so they tried to make her a better offer to get her to stay. That’s not a bribe or blackmail or whatever, it’s…

most notably the incident in 2014 in which he admitted to inviting a 17-year-old to join him in a hotel room via Instagram.

God damn addiction.  I wouldn’t wish it on my worst enemy.  For those out there struggling, or curious, Stephanie Wittels Wach, sister of the late Harris Wittels, has a magnificent podcast called “The Last Day,” that’s all about substance abuse, with an emphasis on recovery.  It can be dark, but also full of hope as…

Or she’s kind of an Andrew Ryan figure from “Bioshock” where you have interactions with them the whole game but once you actually have a face to face confrontation it isn’t really par for the course as far as bosses go.

I think that would only work in a case by case basis. Trans experience is varied, so while some people don’t hate/suffer dysphoria from their deadnames, plenty of them do. And a lot of the people in the latter camp, don’t want their work to be associated with the “old” them.

I think the only real compromise is if the…

It’s quite telling that in a webpage that updates the names of characters who change their names (like Finn, or Rey Skywalker), ships that change their names (like the Millennium Falcon), movies that change their names (like Star Wars Episode IV A New Hope) and even real people who changed their surname when they got…

Hyper Sonic flashed a bunch of different colors, but I don’t think it was ever rapid enough to cause issues.

“ they like being criticised without making it somehow about themselves.”

Anyone that is writing here that the ethnicity of the victims is irrelevant feel free to go fuck yourself. This country has spent over 400 years making excuses for whiteness and the fact that the people you have punched down on all this time are now refusing to take your shit anymore has led to violence. On January…
