I’m not really into them, but I had a decent time with Apex Legends. I doubt I’ll play it much more, but I think that’s as close to an enjoyable battle royale experience as I’ll get.

This is the first song I’ve ever heard from this band, but now I want to hear their entire catalog. Thank you.

I don’t disagree with the concept that it’s natural for culture to spread. Nor do I disagree with the idea that it’s wrong to treat ethnic groups as monoliths through conflating culture with ethnicity.

However, I don’t think that uproar about cultural appropriation is BS 99% of the time. What I do think is that people…

You can be mad at both.

What gets rid of that feeling for me is the realization that they are stylized cyborgs. They’re not meant to look 1-to-1 human. Especially not Alita, who looks like a manga character with a photorealistic appearance. It’s really just what I’d expect from a movie like this.

Definitely an hour or two of Overwatch, and I’ll possibly start Celeste.

They wouldn’t really need to tax meat and dairy more and fruits and veggies less. They’d just have to redirect current subsidies away from meat and dairy toward fruits and veggies. The US already subsidizes both. The United States government subsidizes several industries, including another industry that’s bad for the…

I don’t know why, but I just can’t get into games like this. I played Destiny and I had some fun with it, but it was ultimately underwhelming. A friend got me into Warframe. It was fine, but nothing to write home about. When I saw the debut trailer for this, I just kind of shrugged it off. These games all feel like…

I think I read this article when it was first posted, but I just reread it while looking for good articles to share with someone about why blackface is wrong. Specifically about the Pokémon character Jynx, and why Game Freak (Pokémon’s developer) changed the color of Jynx from black to purple. Ultimately, I landed on…

No, because Obama wasn’t a racist. Not by a power plus prejudice definition, nor by the loosest definitions of the word. Trump is racist because he has a history of racial discrimination, and he says things that are tinged with racial prejudice all the time. Don’t even get me started on his dog whistles. So, yes,…

This is why context matters.

You know they’re not saying “Get mad, straight men!” They’re saying, “Get mad, people who’re going to hate that he’s gay!” It’s not even heterophobic to assume that most of the angry people will be straight. 

I don’t know why I kept listening to R. Kelly all those years ago after we first found out about the pee tape. I think Aaron McGruder hit the nail on the head.

That’s great. I’m glad no one died. However, I didn’t say that people died. I said those were dangerous events, and they were. Thankfully, one of those possibilities has been eliminated by a change in processes, and the other was contained quickly enough to avoid a bigger disaster. Unfortunately, you’re still dealing…

I sure hope not. 

He is from Texas, and he’s not wearing either a Texans or Cowboys hat. So...

Hey now. Some of us are actively trying to keep Texas from getting back to that point.

We don’t even need to use nuclear. We can do it all with renewables, and we wouldn’t be risking events like Fukushima and Chernobyl. 

That was a bit much, “KoolDude420". Maybe you should smoke more of the 420 than the Kools. Nicotine stresses you out.

The transistor is great, but its utilization in the integrated circuit is what truly made modern computing possible.
