Wow. So, basically he’s saying that we should all come together and work as one organism to protect and support one another, like some kind of a commune huh?

I get that you’re right but did you have to kill the man?!

The gender politics in Mulan are indeed far from perfect, but you’ve chosen to focus on some really strange things to make your argument.

A Bryan Goldberg machine is a device designed to perform a simple task incorrectly.

I couldn’t stop saying “she’s....just a person!!!” last night....

There’s that old Gawker feeling.

Ehhh much as I love my anarcho comrades that’s a point of contention that dates back to Marx and Kropotkin and the dissolution of the First International — hardly a new thing!

Really? Firstly, most of the clothing was traditional, but infused with tech. Didn’t you see all the warriors with energy shields built in to the blankets they wore? Simple looking clothes that functioned as armour? All the tech Shuri was building into the designs for T’challa? Some of the images above reference tech…

“The wakandans are supposedly a technologically advanced nation, the most advanced nation on earth it seems, and still they dress and act like barbarians”

So I literally stumbled upon this article/review/SBSW because it was filed under “dispatches”.

Great, an entire feature on one of my least favorite things in pop culture fandom: the skeptic trying to justify their indifference to a genre/artist/work of art. You don’t like anime or Frank Zappa? No problem, most people live rich and fulfilling lives without giving a shit about either.

I mean, this is not the…

That’s ColOmbia.

Eh. Assholes be assholes. In Austin we’re dealing with the deluge of people moving into “the live music capital of the world’s” downtown area and complaining so hard about said live music the city enacts noice ordinances that within a year cause some of the most cherished venues in the city to either relocate or close.

I could not be less shocked that he’s from Cobb County.

Not that ridiculous, when you consider that these games aren’t made in a social vacuum. People are having this conversation, and everyone has strong opinions about it, including you, and many others on this thread, as is obvious when get mad and you bring up things no one was talking about. So, when you make a…
