But did either of those boomers floss over the corpses of their enemies while huffing insane amounts of galaxy gas, then say “The names Toilet. Skibidi Toilet”. This could be the shot in the arm that the James Bond franchise needed!

I feel like my understanding of today’s youth is in on par with the average game publisher. And for that reason I am not anticipating this game.

Counterpoint: Thor. He blasted lightning out of his hammer, flew, didn’t require oxygen, and had godly strength. He was placed alongside: A guy who can fly in a metal suit. A guy without a jetpack who throws a shield A guy who gets big and angry A regular guy with a bow and arrow A regular chick with a gun

At the time of this team up, Thor was still a cocky jock who had about as much character development as Captain Marvel has had to this point. But no one was concerned about Thor ruining the MCU.

Why is Captain Marvel different?

Can’t talk about a media property these days without being negative. Positive reviews don’t drive clicks. Gotta get those hate-views.

Loving AAA so far.

“put me in a terrible position, with no recourse against others who are blatantly and repeatedly stealing my work.”

This is an Onion article, right? No one can be this deliberately and hilariously ironically. Fuck AI, and fuck these techbros.

The obvious setup in this episode is that Teen is Agatha’s child, but I wonder if they are Wiccan, somehow, and their plan is to use The Road to bring back Wanda.

EDIT: apparently the actor has been rumoured to be playing Wiccan for a while. Definitely don’t keep up with rumours and leaks.

When religion tells you that sexual desire is evil, anything that turns you on becomes inherently evil. If you’re a good person, it’s just not possible that you can be attracted to evil things. It must be that thing that is actively tempting you. A serpent trying to drag you to sin. It can’t be YOUR fault. It’s those darned women/trans/children that made you do evil things.

This has been happening forever to women around the world. Cis or Trans.

Implying that this isn’t a great date night…?

To piggyback on previous responses, a common trick I’ve seen in Feywild games is when introducing a new Fey, they would say “You can call me ArgleBargle, may I have your name?”

The trick is that if you give your name to someone in the Feywild, it is no longer yours.

This is a terrible article. It pays lip service the strikes, but doesn’t consider that a longer production schedule might be beneficial to the people working on the film?

It treats 2-3 years like a terrible omen of the films reception, ignoring the 5 years between the release of Into and Across.

If stories are true, Sony was horrible to the people who worked on the Spiderverse films. If they need to take appropriate time to release a sequel that lives up to its predecessors, without having to crunch endlessly, then Gamerant can suck it up.

I mean if we are deepfaking things for Elon to do, why pick something so on brand? I guess it lends legitimacy to the scam, because if anyone were to be shilling a crypto scam, it’s that old musky ballsack.

Or we call out this weird shit loudly, don’t treat it like some “companies will be companies” thing, and maybe the people who would have worked with PaloAlto previously will reconsider working with the weird company that tried to present women as objects.

Not talking about this stuff is what got us here in the first place.
