it’s pretty funny that the game of thrones actor who’s had by far the most success after that show is pedro pascal, who is in GOT for about 5 minutes before dying hilariously
Ok but when are we going to make contact with North Sentinel Island? Are we going to have Mars colonies and trans human cyborgs but just keep a bunch of people in a pre bronze age bubble until the end of time?
this is silly but i’m a little floored every time i listen to “stacy’s mom.” what should be a dumb novelty track is instead one of the most mathematically perfect pop songs of my lifetime
my main problem with discord replacing reddit/forums is that if i have a problem with my router, i don’t wanna go join the router club and talk to router guys about it. i just wanna read a thread from 8 months ago where someone figured it out
if Elden Ring is gonna be your first Souls game, a word of advice: you can just run past enemies like 90% of the time. that’s been true in all of these games
i think that we as a society are slowly losing the battle against people who think it's ok to pull out their phones at the movie theater and we need to fight back
for some reason in 9th grade sex ed class the teacher made it a point to say “smoking weed won’t make you better at sex” and a stoner guy got so angry he got up and left the room
David Hogg’s mentions are the worst place on twitter right now. Blue MAGA viciously tearing down a guy who simply watched his classmates die and wants something done about it
Really excited for a lot of people to find out Morpheus has been canonically dead since like 2007 or something because of an in-game event in The Matrix Online
succession discourse is awesome to follow without watching the show because every monday morning there are 900 images of some guy standing in an office in a way that apparently makes people sob uncontrollably
The thing about avoiding Tesla in favor of Ford or Hyundai or whatever else is not that those other companies are necessarily “good” or “ethical.” But, very importantly, they are “car companies”
Final Fantasy XIV is cool because you’ll group up with 3 other people and their character names will invariably be stuff like:
- Lilith Flameweaver

Anyone who thinks Hank Hill would vote for Trump has, and I’m putting this generously for the sake of politeness, an incomplete understanding of King of the Hill
many viral dating posts can be summed up as “i decided to be cruel to someone who reached out to me across the void of loneliness in slightly the wrong way and should be applauded for it”
Chalamet’s career would benefit a lot from some director realizing that, like Gyllenhaal, he’s just more believable as a weird creepy snake than a prettyboy leading man
It’s so cool that there were Three Stooges and Gilligan’s Island and Addams Family games for NES. Timeline-wise that’s sorta like if someone had made a Cheers game for PS4
still so funny that last jedi was like “any ol’ nobody has the power to save the galaxy” and rise of skywalker was like “jk there are 3 families in this entire universe”
remember when activision made a miraculous tony hawk 1+2 remake that everyone loved and sold really well and the dev team was working on 3+4 until activision was like “nah you do diablo now”
it’s so funny that disney has this massive universe with thousands of years of lore to play with but every story inevitably is about the same four people over the same 20 year period
“hey why isn’t basically the main guy in the new movie”
“well he got shot in an alleyway in a video game you can’t legally play anymore. sorry boss there’s nothing we can do”
I respect people who only play Hitman in a suit with a silenced pistol but I feel strongly that those games are not about being cool. they are about being Bugs Bunny
killing major bosses gives you enough xp to level up like 5 times, it’s far more worthwhile than struggling with the same group of skeletons over and over
gonna echo what a lot of folks are saying re: Activision Blizzard: none of that gets fixed without a union, straight up. you can punish bad actors or put new people in charge but workers without a seat at the table will always be vulnerable
They’ll hold you up as a golden figurehead and then turn you into a villain the second you stop toeing the party line and demand more. Sick, sick people
The best thing about Assassin’s Creed Valhalla is when the Vikings roll up to the British shoreline and see a worship ceremony and they’re like “wait these freaks worship their god’s corpse?”
A lot of people think The Matrix is just an action movie but there’s a lot of deeper stuff in there. Like the part where you hear “Dragula” for 30 seconds
I guess my point is if you willingly buy a Tesla in 2024, when every major brand is making its own EVs that are almost certainly better, you’re probably stupid
it’s very hard to have any faith in a political party that’s failed every test of your lifetime, never learned anything along the way, and condescended to you every time you’ve suggested a different solution
The

conversation is heating up on Twitter. We’ll see what happens at the box office this weekend. But one thing's for sure – they’re both blockbusters on Twitter!
the most insane thing about the Mario movie is that Brian Tyler wrote a bunch of really nice arrangements of Mario music and the movie goes out of its way to NOT use them at every opportunity
Fun fact: The Super Mario Bros. Movie's composer had to fight to use the Super Star theme for the film's climactic fight instead of Van Halen's "Jump".
are modern parents actually afraid of sleepovers? that sucks if so. staying up until 3am pounding dr peppers and playing DBZ Budokai 3 builds character
i think the hogwarts legacy coverage i'm most interested in would be from people who haven't been waiting their whole lives for an open world harry potter rpg
i think nathan fielder has an acute understanding for how funny normal people are, often in ways they don’t realize, and that understandably makes people uncomfortable. but it’s very funny
rewatching Barry from the start. it would be so chill to move to a new city and have a hot lady immediately fall in love with you even though you’re a quiet weird guy she doesn’t know anything about
shout out to taika waititi for supporting johnny depp on IG the same day they announced season 2 of the pirate show. master class in “hopefully they don’t notice this”
I wonder if the new Matrix movie will address the supposedly-canon The Matrix Online game from 2005, where Morpheus is shot dead in an alley by a creepy assassin
remember when marvel made like four netflix shows with very loose ties to the movies, and then obliterated them from the public consciousness because the parent company started a new streaming app
