I really liked the emotional dynamic with Chief and The Weapon. Chief’s guilt over letting cortana run amok, the burden of responsibility, and even chief’s own emotions (which are seldom recognized throughout the series)

The problem with the story is that Chief has 0 agency in the key plot points because they already…

Ribbons are a late game accessory and you fucking know it.

You misunderstand, the Wikipedia quote is to illustrate that Pong came out after the Oregon Trail’s first version.

My God that ad was cringe.

If they are unwilling to do that they could potentially give him a car worth $10,000 and it would also be satisfactory. Perhaps a certain 2016 Mazda CX-5.

And while the dealer is trying to make it right for Fredricks, he’s still out of $10,000 and a car.

I mean making anime refrences to joke about this isn’t in good humor.

Nothing gets you de-selected faster than bringing up jury nullification.

Reminds me about the questioning for jury duty when I was part of the selected pool. Lawyer asked me if I could render a guilty verdict. Me: “Well there’s the law and then there’s justice. I would do what’s right.”

You have a wild misinterpretation of the campaign events. Franklin looked up to Michael. He had every opportunity to not participate in the events of the story. He shows up to Michael’s house after Michael throws an offhand “hit me up if you wanna learn how the world really works” remark that clearly wasn’t meant in…

Yes, all. There should be no place for that kind of inflexibility in a justice system.

I don’t think #4 is really relevant when even those families apparently agree that 110 years isn’t warranted.

Mandatory minimum laws are obscene in all instances.

You also can’t unlock in game currency with the battle pass to keep the ball rolling. Not liking the decisions they're making with this.

Wolf’s Rain, Cowboy Bebop, Tokyo Godfathers, Macross Plus, Samurai Champloo, Space Dandy, Carole and Tuesday: This is a murderer’s row of anime classics over the past 3 decades, and this woman’s responsible for writing a good chunk, if not most of them. I grew up with them and still am in awe of them all.

Such a legend. I guess I should go watch Wolf’s Rain since I haven’t yet. Macross Plus is the best Macross, I highly recommend it if you haven’t seen it. I am excited to see it on the big screen next week.

While wood itself is non conductive, the water and resin in the wood is, which is why trees often explode when struck by lightning. And Voltorb is a Pokémon who is renowned for its tendency to explode.

Grass and electric type, maybe? Neat. not a bad combo.

Can you imagine just showing up to make friends and have a good time, then getting the hole in your head plugged up and being tossed out into the cold because you accidentally zapped someone?

Alternatively, it could be equally possible that the pokeball design was taken from the Voltorb, maybe?
