I guess it’s only “opinions” when the rhetoric is hateful not inclusive.

I think we can all agree that we all can be better humans. For some of y’all that’s gonna be a bigger challenge than it really should be.

Death is never something you can prepare for. You just weather it the best you can. Today, the weather is far from fair… much like life sometimes.

As an adult collector of action figures, I am wholeheartedly on your side here.

There’s something grounding about indulging the young you that would have loved those figures/dolls/etc. And adult you will thank you for it.

Dysentery cases on the rise in the Portland area: 40 new cases reported in January alone Cases of dysentery have consistently been on the rise in the Portland, Oregon area year-over-year since 2012, officials said.

You guys. As a member of the Oregon Trail generation, I just.

Without knowing the cause myself, a delay isn’t necessarily bad. I hope the delay is to avoid Crunch™️ and is just to allow the creative process to unfold at a pace the prioritizes the dev team’s wellbeing.

Interestingly, my limited research suggests that one of the progenitors of The Method rejected the notion of an actor staying in character off stage/set.

While I can see the value in staying in character to maintain the emotional tethers necessary for the role, it’s no excuse for abuse.

Use the term “touch grass” to indicate that someone needs to seek out reality, use the term “touch moss” to indicate that they need to seek out ancient forest magic beyond their mortal comprehension.

What a horrible miscasting.

Can’t wait to hear how he terrorizes his fellow cast members this time 🤢

That presumes a level of introspection that far too few people actually have. Which sucks, because I don’t think they think they don’t or mean to not have it.

Kind of preoccupied with gender and gender expression today.

I… I think I might be gender fluid? It’s not a split that makes they/them feel like it fits me… but… hm.

Lots to contemplate.

5 panel comic

P1: A lone guy sits beneath a tree, atop a grassy hill. Everything is bathed in cool blues; the sky, a sea of stars

The guy is wrapped up in a foetal position. Dejected looking, he sighs.

P2: Suddenly, a shooting star strwaks yellow across the sky. Looking up, the guy says "oh, shooting star... I wish my life was more interesting..."

P3: Same POV. The object suddenly does a dramatic swerve, and speeds Earthward, directly toward the guy, who looks on in wide-eyed shock.

The shooting star is literally that, the absolute archetype of a cartoon star: five points, and an Emoji style face in its centre. It grins vacantly, its saucer-like eyes showing both too.Much white, and too much pupil all at once.

P4: A closeup of the guy's face, bathed in --almost blown out with-- yellow light. A beat, before he lets out a quiet --and all too final-- "huh"

P5: A wide panel, almost filling the width the page. The Star slams violently into the hill, leaving towering mounds of disturbed dirt in its wake. The tree snaps and flies away, like it's nothing but a matchstick.

The Star's vacant grin, unchanging.

The first time I tried to return to a game and couldn’t play I finally understood why people speedrun—if you don’t finish it now, you may never do it.

The degree to which this hits and is literally me is intense.

I don’t return to games not because I don’t want to play them anymore but because the muscle memory is gone.

Agreed.

The delirious assumption that every movie needs to appeal to everyone to be considered good is as idiotic as it is impossible.

Don’t get me started on the armchair critics that spend time deriding a movie because failed to live up to their personal wish list.

Utter nonsense.

I once wrote an episode of Adam Ruins Everything where he said that IQ is a bad measure of actual mental ability. It got some of the most wild, furious responses online. There are people who base their entire world view on a relatively meaningless number
