Love it, keep moving forward. I would have loved if our country was smart enough to elect Elizabeth Warren but for now I’ll take Joe Biden surrounded by as many progressives as we can get. Maybe in my lifetime we can attain certain things, universal health care, affordable college, wage equality, wage equity that a…

Steadily employed on a network tv show is hardly unlucky.

They may just want to prevent the franchise from getting so bloated that people who miss a few games no longer know who many of the characters are. Its like they want the Mario universe to always be something you recognize, no matter how long you’ve been away from gaming. Not defending, but that may be the reasoning

The franchise has grown so big at this point that keeping everything artistically in the same “universe” has become a bigger problem than a concept of story canon. Continually doing brand new character designs that depart significantly from those already in existence could eventually yield games that just don’t seem…

The domino effect of white supremacy is a painful thing to have to continually witness and experience. To all the bootstrapper assholes who keep saying that the playing field is level, or better yet, that black people are the ones at an advantage, GFY.

That’s horrible. Sorry for your loss and the pain it caused. Its unfortunately way to common. I wish people that wanted to get physical about a disagreement would keep the guns at home. In my line of work (attorney) I have seen way to many nice kids and young adults throw away their victim’s life and their life for a…

Thanks for sharing about the tragic and senseless death of your cousin. I’m no psychological expert, but you maybe suffered from posttraumatic stress disorder. It’s like a war came to your house, and you got spared but your cousin did not. I can’t imagine how hard that would be, especially when you had to explain how…

Thanks for writing this.

I’m sorry you had this experience.

And I’m the “conventionally book-smart” one in my own relationship — the one who (very unlike the bf) smashes standardized tests and has voluntarily read lots of Extremely Important Litt-rachoor — but bf is observant, insightful, clever, and can go brain-meltingly deep-dive on things he’s passionate about (music,…

When I heard him say that, the wife asked me “then shouldn’t it bother him that cops are killing white people?”

It’s not even that it is happening. Donald Trump says it’s happening. He said it was happening literally yesterday:

Remember - all that violence that Trump says could happen if Biden becomes president actually is happening while Trump is President.

The American Way of Life shouldn’t be safe.

I can't pay sticker for anything. 

I’m pretty sure that’s against an oath we took or something.

Exactly. I love me some wagon, and some manual shifting, but that’s more than I paid five years ago for a ten-year-old Swedish stick wagon with turbo and half the miles.

At $4000 I’d just buy it, no haggling at all.  

Agree on all points except the looks. I mean sure, it’s no Ferrari, but those crisp, utilitarian lines definitely tickle parts of my left brain.
