Origin was phenomenal, and what got me to buy Oddysey... which I haven’t played more than a couple of hours in to. I figure I’ll give oddysey another go sometime soon and see if it can grab me the same way...

But Bayek’s story seems like it was custom-written to kick me right in the feels, and Kassandra is just...…

the lack of USB-C man. that’s just... unfathomable. I’m so ready to replace my iphone 6s+, but I’m just so unenthusiastic about giving up TouchID & my headphone jack (which is actually starting to fail)... 

You know what I wanted? USB C. Period. the newer iPad Pros have it, the macbook pro has it... why the fuck is it not in an iPhone yet? 

I mean... who would be sorry about rajang, aside from all his victims. which means everyone.

I did ask for it...

No Lagombi? No Zamtrios? seriously? Is it all just more dragons? more and more dragons? I’m sick of dragons. let me hunt the killer white rabbits and bugs and birds and dogs again...

It kind of started when Analee left, and then took a steep nose dive when Charlie Jane moved on. Without those two, the soul and mission of the site died. Now it’s just a watered down pop culture sub-blog of a subpar tech blog. iO9 used to a daily read for me now I scan the headlines once or twice a week..

That is, of course, not a death threat. just an idle musing?

I think a big part of it, in this instance, is the social aspect.

Kowal was president of SFWA for a couple of years and that’s a highly visible, highly regarded position. Hugo voters are all Worldcon attendees, many of whom are SFWA authors. *shrug* people have biases towards the works of people they know and like. I…

it helps to remember that the Hugos are not a *general* popularity contest, but rather a reflection of the tastes of the people who regularly attend Worldcon.

As Worldcon is a very writer-dense portion of fandom, it makes sense that people will vote for who they know, and as MRK was president of SFWA, it lends the…

So I understand that Calculating Stars was a favorite based on it being 1) very good, and 2) written by Mary Robinette (who was president of SFWA, so well known in the actual community that votes for the Hugo). It was actually my number two pick... because Spinning Silver was utterly incredible, and Calculating Stars…

Blizzard? Have a shit-show of a launch? That’s never happened before. Especially not with WoW.

I  believe this is what the youth call “daddy issues.” 

pretty sure they’ll come for us before they go after the catholics. 

... to quote GTA:SA... “does the pope shit in the woods?”

... I’m really hoping for a spinoff Darkwing Duck series.

I need it. So, So much.

Also, if you are anything but English speaking Anglo protestant, they will extend it to you after they’re done kicking out persons of color.

signed, a Jew.

so, how long before you get (wrongly) accused of plagiarizing this level?

that’s the reality of it for me. I enjoy exploring and would probably enjoy ratting and such.. but Other players are hell.

| “When I reached out to Visible to ask about any other possible data restrictions, a Visible representative responded saying, “The data is truly uncapped. There is no GB threshold after which Visible traffic is treated differently. It is, however, subject to de-prioritization during times of congestion.” Okay, that’s…

now now, republicans are so full of shit that they make great fertilizer, if you plant them deep enough.
