It airs in like 2 hours. Couldn’t this have just waited instead of trying to double dip on a preview clip?

It’s so much crazier than that. December just happens to be the window when the Comic-Con “exclusive” three-year window ends. People were able to sign up for 3 years at around $169 when it first launched. So come December, unless they want ads, that shit’s more than doubling.

Discovery+ was offered for free with Verizon for a year, then they quietly added it to your bill. Since Verizon offers all kinds of discounts for going on Auto-Pay, chances are you aren’t paying attention to what’s getting tacked on until months down the road. So odds are most of their subscribers are either getting…

• Stonjourner, a rock-type from Pokémon Sword and Shield who, I guess, is supposed to be a play on the famous Stonehenge monument in England.

I’m not so sure Pikachu is a “pre-order” specific item. Yes, the page is titled “pre-order” but all the text says “early purchase” and limits getting Pikachu to through the end of February 2023. It sounds like their usual “buy the game in the first quarter it’s available and get a special Pokemon” thing.

The actual legislation only passed by a few votes. There was definitely room for them to influence the final outcome.

Just think, if they actually gave a shit about this when the Don’t Say Gay bill was a thing, they could have actually had an impact and I don’t know, stopped a horrific piece of legislation designed to erase a whole lot of people from the education system.

Damn, I almost got someone Outer Wilds on the Switch last Christmas thinking it was out already. 

I mean if anything, this proves that slimmer Velma is a nerf. Why keep on nerfing?

“But I’m glad you watched a completely different movie.”

What’ll be interesting is if they can actually secure streaming rights for a current season. The waiting period from airing to streaming service has been getting shorter, but always after a season wraps up. Streaming DURING the season hasn’t been done yet.

The series marks Gellar’s first regular live-action TV role since starring opposite Robin Williams in The Crazy Ones back in 2013;

There’s Gamergate, this, the whole Depp-Heard trial, plenty of moments lately where it’s very clear somebody’s doing a lot of astroturfing as a recruitment tool, or just to tweak someone’s algorithm.

The audio sounds really weird, probably because the embed is a bad rip

It is true. This steelbook has no disc.

Shit sounds bonkers, but it was the black religious vote that got Prop. 8 passed 14 years ago in California.

Completely out of the blue last night, Final Fantasy Record Keeper announced its English-version shutdown is coming in September. They just announced a bunch of stuff for the Japanese version (which is about 6 months ahead) the day before, so this came as a complete shock to the community.

Unprecedented, a new 3-part docuseries directed by Eric Holder, who somehow managed to embed himself in the Donald Trump camp throughout the months where its members were formulating their response to Joe Biden’s victory in the 2020 election—right up through Jan. 6, when Trump supporters stormed the Capitol in an…

There’s the reality TV, then there’s the true crime podcasts ... which sometimes are just the same thing.

Also it’s weird saying this post is evidence that it’s heating up. Two games that came out last week and a handful of others, including a sports game year refresh. At least the departing list isn’t too bad.
