It looks like early 3D RTS games zoomed all the way in.

A few examples of what I mean:

Where is Carrie Nation when you need her?

Let’s hope that last bit of a news was a double entendre, since they can’t blog about what’s really going down:

I think you mischaracterize the ending. It’s not a “Those Who Walk Away From Omelas” situation, where everybody in society is knowingly complicit in the torture of an innocent. It’s closer to the end of Escape From L.A., where Snake destroys modern civilization out of a “fuck you, m’man” attitude. This notion that a…

Tony Todd has hit that sweet spot among character actors where, no matter what he’s in or how good the rest of the film looks, I’m immediately invested in his scenes just because of the presence he brings. It’s rare company for character actors, as you’re talking about actors like Patrick Stewart, Stanley Tucci or the…

Fixed! 

There’s no romantic stuff between them in either movie, just lots of typical villain/hero tropes (the villain interrogates the hero, the villain tires to lure the hero to his side, the villain and hero temporarily team up against a mutual enemy, etc.) that people are misreading as “romantic” because the hero and…

“Horrible People Agglomerate Into a Single Viscous Mass of Hate”

I honestly couldn’t speak to why conservative (see, based in religion) views on body autonomy don’t have the same impact there as they do in the US. I’d have to do much more research. There’s no shortage of conservative, anti-abortion groups in the UK protesting so I’d say it’s much more nuanced in terms of US history…

Doesn’t help that the common conception of “middle class” is too broad. And everybody making over, I dunno, like $150k in household income should see a net increase in taxes larger than what they receive in additional benefits, sorry. Time to take care of the poor.

If only certain people are allowed to say it that is a racist word in any sense for everybody, not just that certain type of person.

My minimum wage summer job was as a library page. Pretty darn cushy gig — mostly reshelving books, adding cards to the card catalog (yes, this WAS a while ago), and weeding discarded books.

The greatest version this song, my Sunday night gift to everyone...

You can’t just ignore the cultural power of The Christian Church in North America though. There is way more baggage attached to it then just a silly man in a robe chanting things and sprinkling water on a baby would imply devoid of context. While I agree that I don’t think he’s being as honest with himself as he…

My gut reaction at the time of "omg I hope they washed those clothes with cold water asap" may have been missing the bigger picture, but damn if it wasn't accurate

I *really* want to laugh at this bullshit, but I'm immunocompromised so fuck Becky with the full cup.

yeah exactly. This read like somebody just dabbing their already prepared food with all these sauces. Sambal Oelek, for example, is a great sub for copious amounts of minced garlic if you’re doing a stir fry or in a marinade. And Gochujang is basically a mothersauce and condiment for Korean cooking (Korean Miso…

2019 word of the year: treason. I’m 57 and I’ve never heard that word bandied about with such frequency and misunderstanding.
