"McGrath says it's actually not that unusual for a hawk to eat so much it can't move." lol hawks are dumb

This doesn't actually let you take control of the animals due to the bugged nature of it...except, for some reason, bears
There's currently a bug in the latest age of empires 2 patch that causes animals to be valid targets for religious conversion. people are losing battles because they're accidentally tasking their monks to preach the gospel to bunny rabbits
Merely identifying that many JRPGs use the same tropes is quite frankly amateur hour criticism, true sickos recognise that they're using them in a whole wide array of differently bad ways
[above a picture of my opponent locked in a nude embrace with a hot girl] is THIS who we are, America? I say NO!
Win, usually. Though there is often a delay while that happens.

Also regarding remakes I remember making so many people mad on discussion boards by asking why it's bold, cultured and extremely smart when a visionary theatre director makes a transformative staging of a play, but crass, unnecessary and a sellout when someone makes a new adaptation for film or TV
I'm noticing a lot of "critical gamers" who look like thumbs with beards posting IT'S SO OVER or NINTENDO RUINED IT regarding the Ocarina of Time remake so I'm assuming they confirmed Link is gay or something and people are trying to manufacture some kind of hate for it
and that's bled into American misconceptions about Norse gods, too. Like, blatant "comic facts" that are treated as real life mythology fact.
you're not trying to connect to the Spider-Man that your ancestors a thousand years ago carved runes for, and you're not decoding a poetry manual for stories, including tantalizing references to lost Spider-Man arcs of yore. Like... it's a facile comparison. Treat it as one. Don't take it serious.
No one is currently reviving Spider-Man worship as a resistance culture to a dominant church, examining archaeological evidence for evidence of previous Spider-Man worship, or finds great meaning in that reconstructionist faith. So until then, no, they're not really the same at all.
People often state to me as if it were fact that superheroes are the modern equivalent of norse gods with tall tales that are known by everyone that teach moral lessons and like, sure on some level yes, but literally no one has ever offered a sacrifice to Spider-Man to ensure victory or conception
‘never read Gaiman,’ ‘never liked the Potter books,’ ‘always knew something was up with Whedon’ We’ve got to get over the childish impulse to deny that bad people can be charming and we’re all vulnerable. History is too long.
I kinda dislike how often smut for women gets framed as like “yearning for freedom from everyday patriarchy and abuse” I think it’s okay to just want to get railed by a dragon for regular sex reasons lol
Whelp. Looks like there’s a second credible shark in a flooded city street. I spent a lot of time thinking about how AI slop would make fake incidents of this more likely. I didn’t think enough about how climate change would make real incidents more likely.
Every election cycle we have some apathetic C-minus-in-poly-sci edglord telling the world Your One Vote Won't Make A Difference and every election cycle we have at least one race decided by fewer people than it would take to fill a Greyhound bus
And now the real work begins, such as posting "and now the real work begins" and then going back to talking about video games
Sometimes I think about how there’s an action show based on the success of Truck Rascals and Rose of Versailles called ‘Truck Girls of Versailles’

Gonna bring this back, if I see that Bugs Bunny sawing off Florida gif from any of you it's an instant block
If I see ANY disparaging statements towards the southern US implying it's not worth saving or living in it's an instant block
Anyway where's that meme of "is it a deconstruction or just contempt for the genre"
This came up in a convo yesterday but honestly unpacking the "isn't it funny if an adult woman is a magical girl and has to wear the funny costume" subversion (?)/deconstruction (?)/trope just feels like unpacking multiple layers of cynicism and potential misogyny from contempt for the genre
