Like bringing in cops or National Guard to forcefully disperse protests. The historical alternative to protests isn't "no protests".

It's like they decided what "a real man" should be and then tried to explain why they're not the worst while still being different. They keep this up and they'll eventually reinvent diversity.

Now yes, I'm sure they are banana peel boots. But the thing about these boots tho is that they just appear to be yellow boots. My dude looks like he's wearing banana peel PANTS. And they be peeling from the top.

For 15 years the man was given a level of ownership over the book that has not ever been seen again at the Big Two. So the man nurtured the story and his writing like it like it belonged to him. To the point that threads he left dangling ended up treated very much like mythology. See: The Twelve.

Hey, I know some great mutants who absolutely love mutant-killing giant robots. Great mutants like... Sebastian Shaw and Trevor Fitzroy. Hold on, looking for a way to redefine "great".

So much respect for streamers who make sure to beat at least one boss every session. Once I enter a dungeon, I put down the game every 10 mins because I can't take it anymore, and then pick it back up 5 mins later because I have to keep playing. I could never play Souls games for hours non-stop.

Counterpoint: I learned to let everything die. Form no attachments in the knowledge that sooner or later, I will have to let all things rejoin the dust from whence they came. And yes, same for all these movies and games I pirated decades ago. Look, I'm definitely not saying that was correct.

I think in my youth I was so eager to grow up that I willed time to go faster, and now there's only one way this speeding train comes to a stop.

I hope Manji from Blade of the Immortal was at least considered for the list. It's great when it works, and it's great when it's not enough.

They age asymptotically. They can be babies for decades, and then hit their teens for a couple years, twenties for ages, and then approach 35 for eternity.

I find that getting good at something requires liking the process. And the process requires you to do bad until you do good. If you enjoy this, you can go the distance. And if you can't, you realise it's not that you can't do it, it's that you just don't like it. And that's fine. You don't have to.

"Here's a task list. Do all of them if you want the true ending. Maybe. There's 20,000 items." "Our characters are rich and full of nuance. Here's the good guy, the evil guy, and the quippy guy. That last one is for the trailers. He has exactly three lines and will never stop saying them."

Maybe, but it's hard to understand why the GOP is shilling so hard for Trump if they don't expect him to conveniently vanish and leave the field open for the runner up. I expect they also hoped for it in 2016, but time is technically on their side. That clock only needs to be right once. And soon.

I'll believe them *after* they've opposed the capitalist demands that crushes all artists. Because they really haven't been on that side yet. But I believe they believe it. And I will leave enough room to hope.

'97 compressed and streamlined a lot of storylines, often by merger. Did you find any that were improved as a result? Personally I think Bastion and OZT benefited. If you were to only learn about Maddie Pryor's full backstory today, do you think you would you prefer the cartoon or the comic version?

Hawkeye arguing the goblin doesn't have 3/4 cover because, look, he could do it himself. It's an easy shot. In fact, he should have advantage.

Yeah, but at least symbolically it's not as disrespectful as *checks notes*... uhm ... kneeling for the national anthem? Sure, I guess.

And yeah, "inevitable". Like 3D movies in anaglyph, or shot with stereoscopic cameras. Not every technology sticks around. Even those that actually work as advertised.

Stanczyk going "this is you right now", it turns out. (Also, thank you for the alt-text. I never knew the context of the painting before now.)

To me, Spider-Man should always be a Reserve Avenger. And he should forever be trying to gloss over the "reserve" part and the villains should always call him out on it. I know it's not been always the case, but it was such a funny running gag.

A complete bullshit article. Based on this Stripinis' IMDB page, I'm guessing they had to dig deep to get this perspective. Dude's experience is okayish, but if it's up to date, I don't see how he's an "insider".

When I started collecting comics, continuity was like mythology that coloured in background and characters, but all you needed to know what was happening TODAY was in the comic you're holding. Even if you came in at the last issue of a multipart story arc. Which happened a lot. And without internet.

I looked into conspiracy theories for an X-Files(ish) game I was running. Realised ALL of them were founded in antisemitism. No matter the target group, even the ones that don't seem explicitly racist follows that mould. It's where they learned to racist like the blueprint for Hatred Without Borders

I imagine the wind down to the fight is specifically that famous cover you're thinking of.

Fun fact, most of them also start at antisemitism. Sometimes they renovate the building until it looks all different, but the foundations remain the same.
