My good friends and I are obsessed with reading the comments on 70s disco songs. They're always like "I REMEMBER GROOVIN TO THIS ALL NIGHT LONG WITH JERRY, ANGEL, AND LITTLE STAR. HIGH ON DREAMS. QUEENS IN THOSE DAYS WAS WHERE THE SCENE WAS THOSE BEING SEEN. RIP JERRY ON THE DANCE FLOOR IN HEAVEN I MISS THOSE DAYS."…

I do honestly think the lack of feasible workwear right now is a political statement. You can either be a decorative boho waif or you can have a working life that requires frumpy bra friendly clothing. It feels like forcing you to choose looking nice over ambition.

Is it just my perception or does it feel like flattering, work appropriate clothing in general is just a myth? ModCloth and Anthropologie, troublesome though I know people find them, like 6-7 years ago used to have a “classics, with a twist” vibe. Now everything comes across like “resort/festival season” aka bra…

I’ll add Lindy Bop, a UK retailer who will ship to the US, as something for Modcloth fans to consider, as well as Bernie Dexter. Bernie’s dresses were sold at ModCloth and PUG clothing but you can also buy from their website. They’re a small business and stuff is expensive, but for all I can tell is made locally in…

Season 5 was far and away my favorite Who season, so this is nice to hear. I gave up the show after Season 6 and only watched Amy & Rory's departure since then. I might try and watch 9 and see if it grabs me again.

There is actually a lot of academic work devoted to talking about Japanese pop culture and the atomic bomb. There is a lot I could link covering it.

The last link is about how the era of bombings changed pop culture in other countries…

No, I think you’re dead on. The newer games aren’t universally bad, but they do not feel like the earlier era of the games in the same way. I was trying to describe the feeling of Final Fantasy IX and then VI itself to someone who had never played them recently. I settled on saying they have this feeling of a warm…

I absolutely feel the same. I used to not get the hype for FFVI as it wasn’t the first game I’d played in the series (nor was VII - it was IV) and even now it’s not my favorite story (that would be X). I finally played it as an adult with my boyfriend a few years ago and had an amazing time. I didn’t expect to love a…

It's confusing all around. I once saw an extremely long post trying to justify it because the race of the VA "doesn't count" because the way the character is drawn and personality traits are obviously suggesting etc etc etc. I felt like the assumptions in that particular post looped around to being so very problematic.

Oh my godddd this fandom is the worst. I see so many posts raging, RAGING about how the "white gems" are depicted to be X Y Z compared to the "POC gems", and inevitably they are pointing at Pearl, Lapis, or Sapphire who are all voiced by non white voice actresses (two Asian American women and a woman who half black,…

My boyfriend surprised me with an adorable shirt of Steven decorating a Christmas tree with gem shaped ornaments, and a mystery mini figure (I got Lion).

Totally agreed. What do networks starting their own competing streaming services think will happen when the market is saturated and everyone is unwilling to pay for X different $7-10/month services? They have to assume that ultimately the majority of the audience will pick the big winners like Netflix, Amazon, and to…

I know! I thought I'd get bored of the mine but I honestly love exploring it. The game is so sweet and relaxing, except the fishing. I still love it though! I just try and catch all the fish I need for the bundles and then it's crabpot time.

Nothing wrong with Soldier Dad, he's a solid pick in almost any situation. I always love getting paired with a Rein when I'm maining Mercy, such a great combination.
Depending on team make-up and maps, I also like playing as Ana or Tracer. I only recently got decent with Tracer, but lordy she is a ton of fun on maps…

Mercy is my true main, but also I play a fair bit of D.Va. What about yourself?

My two games of the year have to be Stardew Valley and Overwatch. Both of those games made me fall in love with aspects of gaming I normally resent.

That's what I -thought- this movie was based on the trailers I saw first. Then I saw the trailer that clearly tips its hand that Pratt woke her up, and I was sort of hoping it was, "I had to wake you up because there's a problem with the ship and only you can help." I was assuming she was going to be woken up for a…

I loved Bunheads but I hated how long the musical was and wanted so badly for it to be about 60 seconds instead of 10 full minutes. I could have had another Jess scene or more Lane with that precious time!! The only thing I liked was the final Sutton scene that stirs something in Loralei. I think if the musical bits…

'Dichu' made me laugh when I really needed it. Bless.

It made me remember that there's a small line in the original series that I believe has Emily saying she got a history degree. It's sweet that she gets to use that interest, finally.
