That’s it. I’m calling out sick tomorrow and locking myself in my house with a bottle of booze and my dog. People just suck

More and more I am starting to realize that people are near universally horrible. I have become more and more isolated. I more and more of my personal time alone in my apartment with my dog, avoiding contact with others as much as possible. My family is worried about me, but I’ve come to realize I’m much happier this…

I misread that headline as “Cruising Is Still Allowed” and thought this article was about a bold attempt by Nintendo to reach out to the gay community. I’m disappointed that this is not the case

Funny, that’s basically my experience with XII. X is one of my favorite games of all time, FF or otherwise

For me, Final Fantasy reached its peak with X and there hasn’t been an installment that captured me since then. I tried to get into XII a couple of times, and probably would have eventually if it hadn’t come out so late in the PS2s lifespan. It wasn’t long after I got it that I upgraded to the next gen and stopped…

I was just last night thinking of how nice it would be to have Orange Box

Well that’s not really what people say happened with Nader. The 2000 election was very close, Bush carried the traditional red states and Gore carried the traditional blue ones. Florida was ultimately the state that it all came down to and Bush narrowly edged out Gore there. So narrowly that it was statistically…

I mean yeah, I guess. In the sense that blowing up your car to collect the insurance money and hopefully be able to afford a new one could theoretically be better than just paying for new brake pads and an oil change over and over... I guess you’d save money if everything works out.

Yes, during the DC vs Marvel Crossover. She was slated to fight Storm though and when readers voted for Storm to win, Wonder Woman gave up Mjolnir as she felt it would give her an unfair advantge. The whole thing was sort of weird, as it kind of implied that the writers thought Wonder Woman couldn’t beat Storm without…

Whoever has Mjolnir has all the powers of Thor regardless of their species. Asgardians and Korbinites might be stronger than humans without Mjolnir, but a human is just as strong with it as an Asgardian or Korbinite would be. Some readers might question where Masterson was worthy of wielding Mjolnir, but once he had…

Even if it is only something Trump heard that has no basis in fact, the past year shows that he can and will say it over and over again and his supporters will believe it to be true. Heck, Trump doesn’t even have to have heard it or think it is an accurate statement for his followers to believe it. They believe the…

That’s a fair point, but I was more saying that from purely an in canon powers comparison perspective, Post Crisis Superman is objectively stronger and more invulnerable than the Professor Hulk. In addition to having flight, super speed, heat vision and so on. He was basically fighting a depowered Hulk who he could…

It’s a bit different than the Eric Masterson or Ben Reilly thing though, as Masterson and Reilly had the exact same powers as Odinson and Peter Parker. The Professor Hulk is a depowered version of the character

The first essay I remember ever writing for school was about DC vs Marvel and the first round of Amalgam comics.

Serious question: Is there a reason they all have identical hair cuts? Like is it a team thing? Or just a coincidence?

Interesting.

Except many rape survivors don’t say no, they don’t fight back, they don’t scream. There are many ways to express a lack of consent, both legally and more importantly ethically and not all of them are immediately clear. If you actually listen to the stories of a lot of survivors, you’ll frequently hear them say…

First, the whole rape is about power and not sex thing is predicated on the idea that some how sex and power are in no way related. Sex and power and control are very intertwined for lots and lots of healthy people. Probably the majority of us

He always comes back

Generally the sex ed situation is actually worse at private and boarding schools than in public schools. There aren’t the same legal requirements concerning the curriculum, so nothing necessarily compelling the school to provide sex ed, and administrators often take the view that it is better to avoid the topic than…
