What? Lorre was well known for being typecast as sinister characters, it even says it at the top of his wikipedia page, one of his most well known roles is a serial killer of children

You should be asking why Rockstar gets to do this and doesn't run into any issues with payment processors, while the rest of anyone drawing or writing "explicit content" on any platform have so much trouble getting paid

I like the tangents when it's every now and then but you get streamers who spend two thirds of their time talking about something unrelated to what is happening in the game, And then sometimes they'll complain about how "slow paced" the story is

Infuriating that being mad about this is brushed aside because "that's how you scan books" when it's exactly as you described. The issue is that the books in question aren't mass published paperbacks, they're stuff that is so rare it hasn't been digitised, and this way they don't even get digitised

An interesting exchange on how to react to Slop-as-evidence at the Oireachtas. Oireachtas committees hear from people with all sorts of views, and by definition, many of them diverge from each other. But they are actually their views. The people who come in expressed them.

I think Umineko has a problem where a lot of people coming to it have some major spoilers given to them in advance just from how superfans will introduce it to others mentioning certain aspects, and people don't register just how much of the mystery has been undone when they do that

I don’t think that this should just be shrugged off. One of our Ministers (Enterprise or Justice, probably) has presented this plan. It isn’t an anonymous creature called the Irish Presidency. That is our Government.

The best part of being an artist is that you can just draw whatever dumb idea comes to your head at 1am
A scene parodying the Neon Genesis Evangelion scene of Asuka and her Eva unit getting pierced by the spear of longinus. In this scene, Linguini and Remy from Pixar's Ratatouille take the place of the EVA unit and Asuka respectively. Linguinis eye is pierced by a fork version of the spear and Remy is depicted in an inset where he is grabbing his eye and screaming like the anime. There are anime subtitles at the bottom that say "AHHHHHHHHH!"

These kind of people consider even reading classical literature as a struggle and then decide that that must be the "point" of reading it. Rather than admit that maybe they just don't like something that has been 'established' as a mark of good taste

Alina Chan is a discredited crank and it is embarrassing for the Times to publish this
How to Stop a Lab Leak From Starting the Next Pandemic
More than six years after the emergence of Covid-19, no one is keeping track of the risky virus experiments that are capable of starting a pandemic.

there is no such thing as "age verification." All "age verification" is actually "identity verification." You can coat it in glitter and "privacy-preserving" wrapping paper. But in the end, mandating age verification means mandating surveillance be built into software and hardware. Period.

People like this see their jobs as tricking people and don't think there's anything wrong with it. The just slowly wear away at everyone, stripping them of their consent a piece at a time and get confused and irate that anyone would object so strongly

All the people who are anti-Chadley or want to mute Chadley, I have one question: If Chadley disappeared tomorrow, could you still get through Final Fantasy VII without him or the Chadley menu? Imagine Chadley was suddenly banned. Would you actually be willing to give him up?

GAMER YANG WEN-LI: So when you level up, you get +1 ATK, and you feel like you could win any battle. But you also start encountering enemies who have +1 DEF, so everything is the same. And it's been that way for the whole long history of gaming. Gamers have yet to try another way, for all our talk.

Among the worst ideas floating around is that "the free market" will naturally achieve desirable results for society. No, it won't, not even in theory, much less in practice. Markets don't optimize "good for society" unless you make them.
