    DPvW is easier to type than DP&W, anyway. I think my one critique of the marketing was that Reynolds himself spoiled like, 75% of the surprise guests himself on Twitter on opening weekend. But I also think society has swerved to the point where people do not like discovery or surprise anymore...

    I'm actually looking forward to watching people have meltdowns when they have to sit through a McDonalds ad to get their search results they could've used Bing for.

    As someone whose entire life's work was pirated, I just don't do it, it's a small hill I'll die alone on, quietly.

    This was the inevitable end, of course. It's just the Facebook model all over again. Get them addicted to it then sell them shit. (I'm so fucking tired of this world.) ChatGPT could prioritize sponsored content as part of ad strategy — sponsored content could allegedly be given preferential...

    Diapers and formula. Diapers and formula should be fucking free, not locked behind a glass case. And yeah, deodorant, soap, toothpaste, tampons, anything basic to being a living part of society.

    Running gag with my friends is that they'll be like "hey want to watch Matt turn into a puddle? MATT! JACK FROM MASS EFFECT?" Come here my little mass-murdering full-body-tattooed psionic psychopath...

    I know it took me a minute to get into it but I went to it immediately after a Deadwood rewatch so I was in "Shakespeare but make it Western" mode, but it hooked me pretty much immediately. Looks like it's on AMC+, which is the second show this week I've wanted to watch and found out was on...

    Yep! Honestly the reason I avoided it so long was I knew they had a strong enough creative crew that it would be exactly what they wanted it to be, and it's not my type of humor. But they definitely hit a home run for what they wanted the film to be.

    They tease it in a convo between Joyce and Hop in the first season, too. But yeah, more subtle in S1 (when you don't want to commit to long-term b-stories too, so it makes sense.)

    Swung by my local CVS for a few thing and they had the toothpaste behind a locked screen. You know what? If someone needs to steal toothpaste, no they didn't. Fucking let them. This country's decision that nobody deserves working teeth is one of its most petty evils in an endless stream of...

    When I was playing BG3 I said I really liked one character and literally a room full of friends said "of course you do, you've always loved women who made you at least a little bit afraid."

    Aaron Mahnke, the Lore podcast guys (I was on a panel with him a few years back, smart dude) pointed out that everyone's enjoyment of entertainment would be improved by us going back to not "I wish the story would do THIS" but rather "I wonder what the storytellers are going to next?" Because we...

    Finally got around to watching Deadpool v Wolverine because I couldn't figure out what else to watch on the treadmill. It's funny, STYLE-wise it's everything I dislike about modern pop culture (the relentless callbacks, the use of of irreverent smugness to mask sincerity, the meta-text being the...

    Honestly, in this case, BOTH. I do think a LOT of people miss shit by not actually watching what they're watching, but also there's a peak popularity level for shows where the audience is so big and so broad that a fair percentage of watchers, often loud ones, are just fucking morons. The...

    My partner's father is in cognitive decline but is, because he's always been kind of an asshole by nature, making it very much his daughters' and wife's problem, and even in my most frustrated point with him I would be disgusted by someone doing something like this to him. And these fucking...

    G.I. Joe Classified One-A-Day Beamish-Style Figure Poll - #109 - Sgt. Misha Zubenov (Oktober Guard)

    There is no way the Classified team doesn't make a Fatal Fluffy a must-get. It will be unhinged. Speaking of which, I just discovered that the whole Sunbow run is available on Prime with a subscription so instead of watching it with ads on YouTube, I can go back and watch the Fatal Fluffies...

    G.I. Joe Classified Beamish-Style Weekend Vehicle Poll - #20 - Road Bullet

    The Dreadnoks need a vehicle. I don't have the room for another one but I'd make room specifically for the Thunder Machine so the boys have a ride.

    I never quite recovered from Fallout 4 because I made a character that looked like me for a laugh but FOUND MY OWN STREET SIGN in a nuked out Salem MA, in a place that was reasonably close to where it would be blown away if the bombs fell, and I think about that a lot more than I expected to...

    G.I. Joe Head Canon & Fanfic Filecards

    I love how somehow Metalhead strapping rocket launchers to his body is clearly unhinged but Heavy Duty is wearing a tactical Oscar the Grouch can and it somehow feels if not realistic at least reasonably functional.

    G.I. Joe Head Canon & Fanfic Filecards

    No joke I was just staring at that figure the other night going "where does this absolute lunatic fit into the story?" I was scoping out Scrap iron too, but I feel like Scrap Iron is coldly dangerous and monstrous whereas Metal Head is absolutely fuckin bonkers.
