In case anyone cares:

You have to factor for cost of living at the specific place. $50k means one thing in San Fransisco and another thing in Mobile, Alabama. 

Yeah, that’s never actually been a thing. It’s a lovely lie they can tell to defend their paycheck.

This is all a real shitshow. Isn’t it time that notorious misogynist Bobby Kotick left too? The lawsuit is hardly about only Blizzard, and someone actually at the top ought to take the hit for letting this all continue.

considering it’s a film about a criminal forced to wear a bomb suit and go into a wasteland to rescue the granddaughter of a crime boss from a bunch of mysterious nomad ghost people

It’s true.  Every Arthur turns into Arthur 2:  On the Rocks.

I’m still quite early in the game, but the inaccessible area thing was one of the first things I ran into. Picked up a mission, headed through an area of kinda-tough overleveled enemies to get to the elevator and find out it was locked. Uh. Thanks I guess.

It’s a gorgeous game, absolutely, and the gunplay is plenty competent, powers get pretty interesting and fun, but damnit if it isn’t plagued with a lot of issues. And not just bugs, but straight up design issues, missions in particular. Anyone that’s played at least two hours has probably run into the same issue, side…

American Fight Pickers, amirite?

Whose hand is that?! This is a somewhat disconcerting photo edit.

Not really. If she didn’t support him, why should he support her?

I would’ve never have guessed Tarantino had mommy issues...said no one, ever.

Ah yes. The classic Cascading Failure. A thing that goes catastrophically wrong, causally linked to an endless chain of other Things That Go Catastrophically Wrong that all set off Even More Things That Go Catastrophically Wrong. Like a circular row of dominos, except each domino is an open oil drum filled with…

Not to mention the environmental concerns. it’s a plastic cartridge that they say will be recyclable, but don’t know yet what plastic it’ll be. which means it might not even be recyclable locally depending on where you live.

“What? Unhappy is seven letters, not five!”
-me reading the first paragraph, realizing why I don’t do crossword puzzles

For an ordinary adult, the notion that it took him this goddamn long to figure out how bad that slur is, and the fact that his daughter had to carefully explain it to him, should be a goddamn embarrassment.

Are you focusing on the fact that it took him so long to understand that it is wrong (which is more common the older a person is, and he is 50). Or are you referring to the fact that despite his upbringing and age, he is still learning and evolving as a person?
Its a rhetorical question, as I never look back at old…

Contracts are contracts. Unless there’s an act of pandemic clause, you don’t get to unilaterally alter the agreement.

A contract is a contract is a contract; school teacher or A-list actor. She likely took significantly less money up front to collect a % of the gross profits on the back end. Disney’s strat likely fucked her over. Sure, she doesn’t need the money but stuff like this is how other people don’t get screwed over later…

But it also sets a precedent for studios to dick about with contracts like this in future. It’s probably better an actress with clout like Scarlet does it now where it’ll actually get attention.
