How in the hell can you go into a thread for a game have someone posts a gif of the game and then ask "Where is this from"? Smh
That's bannable TBH.
I have a question about Jessica Jones. She doesn't hide her powers and meta-humans are known to exist in that world because it's technically the MCU right? Why do people find it so hard to believe that Purple Man is real? Alternatively she could probably talk to the Avengers. A display of her powers near the not-so-secret HQ would probably be enough to earn an audience.
I saw it as an allegory for rape and how sometimes people don't believe the victim, you have this man who can control you by telling you to do something and then when people come out and talk about it the public doesn't believe them and believe that they are just saying something just to say it.
What are you doing?

Because unless he uses his powers on someone, the person talking about him just sounds like they're trying to pin the blame for their crime on someone else.
Don't think the avengers are that accessible. Remember, there are inhumans all over the place as of AoS.
Seeing what happens. She retweeted it, so that's two at mentions.

Also there's a lot of subplots
Do any of these go anywhere or are they just world building?
Are you ruining lives again, Malyse?
Luke Cage and the married woman, the head of the law firm cheating on her wife, whatever Trish is doing, the incest twins.

Bit of both. Finish it. That show goes places.
I'm certain I don't know what you're talking about.

Probably one of those weirdos who watches everything at double speed
I am, but I'm only 2 episodes in so a lot of the subplots seem superfluous.
I'm the EA Games of watching shows. I will challenge everything.
Hellcat sounds shitty. I mean the character, not the live action adaptation.
That Hulk reference though.
The only models you need are Deathscythe Hell and Heavy Arms Custom
The rest are trash.

Good article on lack of minorities in Oscar nominations

Well, it is early 1915.
Maybes minorities are in a weird ground hog century. This fat furry cosmic fuck keeps coming out, seeing his shadow, and making us wake up in 1900 every century.
Spent too much time reading threads about the show before watching it maybe?
What thread?
Ah, never mind. I'm not going to point them out to you. I made the mistake of reading along with a couple of threads here while I was watching. Even having a dedicated spoiler thread didn't prevent people from leaking interesting tidbits through speculation in the other ones. I eventually quit reading them, but it took its toll.
I think the biggest problem with the Netflix format is that there is absolutely no room for course correction and adjustments. Doing an entire tv season in a movie release format is beginning to show the seams in the length of production. I think that they would have had a tighter season if they had a mid season break to help create more highs and less lows, and give viewers that cliffhanger appeal that is missing.

Lord, this Avatar slander. I knew the BCT seemed too good to be true.
But Avatar is actually good.
I'm sorry, but I can't buy nine (or is it ten now?) women accusing Deen of rape, basically costing him his career and pretty much everything else and he's not filing any type of antidefamation? What? I'm sorry, but even if this is a "he said, she (and she and she and she and she...) said", not making any moves makes no sense to me.
Should not have read the comments... some cop's wife talking about; "showing others how to behave" fucking behave! Must be Patrol's wife.
What role do Asian Americans have in campus protests?. Thanks to this article, I learned that Princeton has a Japanese professor in their English department who specializes in African American literature.

The pseudo part is important lol.
My (Japanese) grandma's sister and husband were involved with the black panthers when they lived in San Francisco during that time. It's a shame to see so many Asians buy into the model minority thing and be so hostile towards black people airing grievances. I've cut off a bunch of former Asian friends who have shown how racist they are over the past couple of years.
I hang out in AsianGAF sometimes. This thread and that thread handle racial issues differently.
I posted the article in there, too. I'm interested to see the reaction cause I haven't interacted with many of them at all.

Natural outcome of this being countercultural blasian militants? thatsmyfetish.gif
In reality, though, this little historical nugget of information seems like the kind of thing that would break most gaffers. "w-what are my curt and logical asian peoples doing associating themselves with terrorists?"
Yeah...that's why...
I have definitely noticed this.
