I can't remember one piece of media in particular, but I remember one of my night terrors as a young child combined elements from Return of the Jedi, Power Rangers, and Ferngully to turn my hometown into a twisted, sprawling labyrinth of terror.

Which is to say that your vent is 100% correct and WTF are they doing. (The answer is "making it so obnoxious that you'll either subscribe or leave, rather than listening to the free version.")

I don't go here, but as a big fan of unreliable narrators/liars in fiction, I'm fascinated by people saying that a book has its facts wrong because the events contradict a statement made by the lying vampire man.

There are enough people who will just read forty words in a skeet and begin shouting that the poster said something terrible [somehow the opposite of what OP actually said]. At a certain point, you start wondering why you're even posting words at all.

Night. The House of Chimes - a tower which you might immediately think of as Big Ben - is adrift in the River Thames. It still seems to be keeping time. In the background, a large, alien building looms over the city of London.

When I told my dad I was bisexual, he responded, "So?" and that was the end of the conversation. I know (now) that for him, it was a way of showing acceptance, coming from a time and place where that wasn't an acceptable thing to be. But it hurt, getting brushed off like that.

Video game level design is hell for realism. It makes sense for things to appear as they do in games, but I hold a strong (and entirely arbitary) belief that prose should adjust for realism.

My heart goes out to you for all the stress. I think Lizzie's advice is solid, because for you personally, if you don't at least bring it up gently with your mom, you're going to keep waiting for an anvil to fall. (It's fairly likely that your mom doesn't know what to say.)

Oh they're soooo good, especially if you're secretly a communication studies nerd. They can't have branded items in the vending machines because they might catch memes. The walls re-organise themselves. The Board is an eldritch entity whose subtitles are given multiple meanings per word.

It's great to see tailoring accommodate such extreme movement today. This level of tailoring was a bit more common in the past, as you can see in old films featuring Fred Astaire or Gene Kelly, but many modern suits will lift off the wearer's neck even when they're just walking.

I'm always surprised by the number of people that consider the unique elements of a setting a flaw to be eradicated. ...or a fandom divide for a gaming mag to exploit for clicks.

If nothing else, the way magic works has been central to the politics of every game. And magic largely pulls from the Fade (blood batteries nonwithstanding). Kotaku just knows we (DA fans) can get wound up easily.

There are at least two Magpies in addition to the player character. Magpie's throat gets cut on screen but they lived the first time so they'll probably make it this time. There are blood sacrifices and creepy children. Walk the path.
