A couple months from now, they'll be trying to retroactively appoint Bork to SCOTUS.

Most parents (particularly of younger children) don't typically want their kids to go to war at all.

"Speak", "testify". I'm sure an invite can be arranged.

I could say I enjoyed watching it 'ironically', but the fact is I simply enjoyed watching it. It's still a fun bit of light comfort viewing to put on now and then.

Just imagine how great things would be if the war had never started then.

Maybe a decade of doomscrolling has made people averse to sad surprises in their recreational media. People at this point just need some reassurance that for the next 90 minutes, everything is going to be okay.

Halo doesn't need to be XBox's Call of Duty. Halo should be XBox's Legend of Zelda. Keep the mainline games as infrequent major events, but bring back the spinoff games in between. Halo Wars, Spartan Ops, ODST. Give us a Halo RTS or X-Com. Halo 2D Metroidvania.

So what exactly are we still doing there? Now they're offering to open the strait but that's not acceptable? What the fuck is the goal at this point?

If they consider "Love Dear Leader" to be a public service announcement, we're really speed-running our dissent into North Korea.

I must have missed the Amendment that gave POTUS unlimited power to redefine words. I know it's far from the biggest deal, but this stupid shit is still exhausting.

Did the artist borrow Nada's sunglasses from They Live when he designed this?

Next year: "The Navy has strongly requested the upcoming Reflecting Pool renovation that is again necessary due to RADICAL ANTIFA TERRORISTS requires military-trained SHARKS with fucking LASER beams attached to their heads to protect our glorious pool. Thank you for your attention to this matter."

One nice thing about all the time Trump has spent as POTUS is it's made it easy to just unequivocally get rid of all the major conspiracy theories. Aliens at Roswell? He would have spilled the beans. Secret weather machines? He would gave bragged. CIA and Kennedy? Come on.

Finally, the next movie in The Legend Continues franchise. I can't wait to see Kwai Chang Caine team up with the Boggy Creek Monster to fight dragons.

Not reassuring coming from an administration that considers "Democrats" a threat.

Existing. I'm willing to turn a blind eye to them simply existing if that's the current threshold for illegal enough to abduct, keep in inhumane conditions, and shipped to dangerous countries they've never been to.

Could someone just dangle some keys near him for a few days? We need a collective break from him playing with whatever new toy of power he discovers.

Even giving the full quote, it's still framed in the article as some having an issue with "his association with Piker". What association?

I still can't believe an entire major political party is intent on propping this up at this point.

Just imagine any other president even joking about making FEMA aid contingent on election results. It would be a major story for months.

Sure. Just look at how much money I saved when I stopped buying food. No more trade deficit with the grocery store for me!

IGN is only as good as it is because of the people there. It would be nice if the management would understand that.

I am expecting there to be one very weird FOIA request being written by someone as we speak.

Seth, Brian, and now Clint? Not that I don't really like a lot of the folks still at IGN, but these are some of my favorite hosts for years getting booted. I've been enjoying Clint's podcasts since the weekly Cinefix Roundtable before they got picked up by IGN, not to mention the excellent Top 100

Modern video game industry: Do poor work, get laid off. Do great work, get laid off. Developers and journalists both subject to the whims of line-go-up execs. This is not sustainable.

I wonder if we'll ever reckon with the fact that the presidential daily brief is likely now 50% made-up bullshit and AI images.

It sure is an effectively way to reduce colorblindness in a population.
