Imagine believing Reddit is worth more than a really good Italian sub.

It's almost like gun ownership for self / home defense is correlated with false narratives about personal safety, shit tier risk assessment, and preposterous value assessments of property versus life.

If the biggest issue this movie has is a title that’s confusing to septuagenarians, we should all rejoice.

LUL you know it will be tho

What a cutie!

Indeed.

Biden's appearance on Meyers was "good" if we're grading on pretty steep curve. I don't personally buy the "cognitive decline" narrative at large, but the best case scenario coming out of the 2024 election is whatever Biden's working with half a decade from now which is fucking grim. And this is coming from someone who thinks that experience is regularly and often dramatically undervalued. I also don't think this is some kind of broad failure of the DNC in general; you never really know how fast the wheels are going to fall off. My brother in law's grandmother in law is about 10 years older than Biden but moves, walks, and talks like she's 20 years younger than him. I thought she was 70 and almost refused to accept that she was 91, maybe there's something in the water in New Hampshire, they've got the butter microplastics or something. Maybe Biden will stay where he's at for a (hopeful) second term which would be... fine? But our guy he's lost a ton of MPH off whatever his fastball was even compared to the debates in 2020. And yes, if Trump doesn't have a teleprompter, the man is a walking, barely sentient disaster, he's no fucking better in the domains where he regularly mocks Biden. But a non trivial amount of politics, especially election politics, is optics. And Biden's optics are at best, "not good," there's just no way around that.

lol

Gaming as we know it is cooked.

Let's not pretend that Square Enix's attempts at cross game lore have ever been good. They have always been, currently are, and forever shall be... tire fires. It's still going to be okay, I promise. You'll be able to get by just fine if you haven't played Final Fantasy VII: Crisis Children Skullfucker McGee EX + Alpha Kingdom Hearts Edition. References, callbacks, and inspirations do not a plot make.

Is it just a meatball sub with pepperoni on it?

RIP to a real one.

Pitching the notion of emulation as one of gamer entitlement is being pedantic to the point of fallacy. I don't even know what you're advocating for or pushing back against in what I emphasized as I don't think anyone here is advocating for being able to do something like cheat in online games via trainers, or for piracy. Say what you mean. Aside from that, we should be in favor of more / broader consumer rights and not fewer, absent compelling reasons. None of which are in play, here. Gaming EULAs or licensing agreements have always been fucked, we're just now entering an era where they can be easily enforced remotely. That sucks. It also says nothing about the fact that for a company like Nintendo specifically, it's problematic that inaccessible and incomprehensible EULAs govern the licensing for products that are often directly marketed to children who have no idea that they're paying for something that could be turned off tomorrow and their recourse for something like that is fuck all.

They're so afraid of getting shot that it applies to vaccines and not just bullets. I, for one, applaud their intellectual consistency, the hallmark of all big brains.

Happy birthday! Today we are all therock'd

Someday I'll actually play this thing. ... I've played one match of Crisis Protocol and got the Earth's Mightiest Core Set...

This obviously really sucks, but this bit got a rise out of me.

I just finished painting and putting my first coat of varnish on the terrain from the launch set, and I also picked up the latest mini releases... despite having painted none of the minis for the game yet

Nobody rational is looking for Stewart to solve the world's political problems and while he is, literally, a comedian, he's also a pundit. It's silly for anyone, particularly him, to pretend otherwise. He's very clearly not "just a comedian" when he's holding a political rally, going to Congress to advocate for taking care of 9/11 first responders, etc. More than one thing can be true and if we're aiming the DeLorean all the way back to the Crossfire appearance era... Stewart was interviewing presidential candidates on The Daily Show, lobbing softballs at John Kerry. In later elections he was giving airtime to Huckabee. It was always silly for Stewart to say he's just a comedian or that TDS was just a comedy show when you're interviewing POTUS candidates. Yes, obviously, an ostensible news outfit should be held to a higher standard than Comedy Central. Fucking of course. But if Stewart's responsibility is to be funny, then the shots he's taking at Biden for being old should... be funny.

I think Stewart is at "his worst" or perhaps his least interesting when he appeals to what he believes to be common sense issues. It's why the Rally to Restore Sanity And / Or Fear was so goofy. I don't think pointing out that Biden is old the way he did on his first episode back is really that but I also don't think he had a particularly insightful take on the topic, either. It was mainly "bad" because it wasn't especially interesting. He's still better at what he's doing than a lot of people who have come up or at least tried to fill that gap since... I don't know that the world needs what feels like the ten billionth Jordan Klepper interview with incredulous Trump supporters. I just don't know that there's more to this return than comfort food. Which is totally fine, I appreciate that he's back. It seems unlikely that folks like Seth Meyers would be doing Closer Looks the way he is without Stewart's TDS run, and obviously someone like John Oliver wouldn't. I'm rambling and I don't really even know that I have a point, other than that while I think that Stewart can waffle, I don't think that's what was happening when he first came back. That said... I do think there's some truth to this. I get sticking up for your friends and for your industry. But for a dude who rightly took shit and then apologized for leaning into trans jokes for a long time, it's disappointing to see Stewart stand up for Dave's "right" to say what he wants... as if that's any of what the criticism about Chappelle's bullshit trans takes is actually about. Stewart is just straight up equivocating there and he's smart enough to know that's what he's doing.

BG1 and 2 still have bugs despite their age and getting relatively recent enhanced editions that exist, in part to fix bugs.

Will finally fix BG3's most glaring flaw; 100% of women don'r have huge dump truck booties and tits so huge they compromise the structural integrity of metal armor.

Somewhere, Mark Whalberg feels vindicated.
