Finalmente comencé a ver The Orville, y es increíble que realmente, Seth McFarlen engaño a un montón de ejecutivos diciéndoles que haría una parodia de Star Trek cuando el cabron en realidad solo hizo su serie de Star Trek. Viejo chingon

Wow, Indiegogo is crashing hard. They have TWO comic projects currently and 12 books. Practically nothing compared to Kickstarter. They really shouldn't have fucked over Indie creators like that; it drove them off the platform. Well, ideological purity uber alles right? Morons?

"The outfits here tend to be skintight across the board with most of the men being ripped and practically all of the women but one having large breasts and notable curves." Perfect 10 #5 Comic Review thepointofclicking.com/perfe…

I like the thought that the pose in "two wizards, one wand" can refer back to their first dance at the Yule Ball.

Wil Wheaton should be condemned for attacking Stephen Miller on Friday over a simple tribute to Patrick Stewart. Showing basic humanity when someone dies should be accepted by everyone, even people you disagree with. Wheaton’s response to Miller mourning Stewart was shameful. For those who don’t know him, Wheaton played Wesley Crusher on Star Trek: The Next Generation. He was young at the time and did a solid job in the role. That doesn’t give him license to police condolences. His comments against Miller show how political derangement has turned some leftists into unpleasant people. Or maybe they were already unpleasant and that’s why they went that direction. Either way, Miller set a better example by offering graceful, classy remarks about Stewart. Plenty of people who didn’t share Stewart’s politics still offered basic respect when he passed. I did the same. Wheaton needs to learn that life is bigger than whatever ideology he currently favors. People change their thinking as they get older. He should try it. America ultimately needs more unity if it’s going to hold together. That requires people like Wheaton to accept they don’t have everything figured out and are wrong about a lot of things. One of my own biggest realizations was recognizing that much of the mainstream media functions as Democratic messaging. Once that veil lifted, a lot of other things became clearer, including the record of figures like Obama. Wheaton still appears to take his cues from that same media environment. That’s why a routine tribute set him off. Star Trek was always supposed to be about exploring new ideas. If he actually respects Stewart and the show’s premise, he’ll eventually have to confront his own blind spots. Right now it looks like he’s more comfortable staying angry than facing anything that challenges his narrative.

To whom it may concern; With regards to Sir Patrick Stewart, or any other person or thing I have feelings about. I will have those feelings. If I choose to mourn the loss of Sir Patrick Stewart, despite being his near political opposite, I damn well will do so. I don't give a fuck who you are. You don't get to tell me what I'm allowed to feel. In fact, you don't get to tell me anything. In closing, Get Fucked.

The reason so many people are so upset about The Wrong People being sad at Sir Patrick Stewart's death is because it proves that not making your sociopolitical beliefs your entire identity is not only possible, but celebrated, and they just can't have that.

In September, my neighbor Brian knocked on my door at 12:45 a.m. Brian is from Columbus, Ohio. He was wearing a red jersey and holding a bag of ice. "Game's on," he said. "You coming?" I asked which game. He looked at me the way you look at a man who has asked what year it is. A noon kickoff in Ohio is the middle of the night in Tokyo. Every Saturday night in the fall, six Americans meet in Brian's apartment to watch Ohio State. They have done this for nine years. Their wives have accepted it the way you accept weather. That night, I learned the rules. Nobody wrote them down. Nobody has ever needed to. Rule 1: Never say "We've got this." Brian's cousin said it at a party in Columbus in 2014. They still talk about him the way you talk about a war. Rule 2: Everyone has a seat. Your seat is not where you sit. It is where you were sitting the last time something good happened. Rule 3: Brian's jersey has not been washed since the season began. It will be washed when they lose. It is not a shirt. It is a record. Rule 4: The dip goes on the left. Moving the dip is a substitution. Only Brian makes substitutions. Rule 5: There is a team in Michigan. You do not say its name. You call it "That Team Up North." For one week in November, Brian crosses out every letter M in his apartment. Including the one on the microwave. Rule 6: Brian's wife watches from the kitchen. In 2019, she walked into the living room during a field goal, and it missed. She has not seen a fourth quarter since. I sat down in the only empty chair. Everyone went quiet. "That's Kyle's chair," someone whispered. Kyle moved back to Ohio in 2021. It is still Kyle's chair. Brian studied me for a long time. Then he said, "Let's see." Ninety seconds after I sat down, Ohio State scored a touchdown. Four minutes later, they scored again. Nobody cheered. Six grown men slowly turned their heads and looked at me. Brian said, very quietly, "Don't. Move." In Japan, we have lucky charms. You buy them at a shrine for 800 yen. You keep them in your bag. In Ohio, the lucky charm is a person. The person is not consulted. I have been to every game since. Same chair. Kyle's chair. Same red shirt, which they gave me and which I am not allowed to wash. Same snack. On the first night I brought Japanese rice crackers, so the rice crackers are now a starter. Brian's text every Friday is the same. "Don't change the crackers." My wife has asked why her husband leaves the house at 1 a.m. every Saturday night in an unwashed red shirt. I do not have an answer that sounds legal. They taught me the last rule after a month. Brian said it like a man handing down a sword. "If anyone, anywhere, says 'O-H,' you say 'I-O.' No matter where you are. No matter what." I said, "Where would that ever happen in Tokyo?" He just smiled. Recently, I was walking through Shinjuku Station at rush hour. Over three million people pass through it every day. Nobody makes a sound. Somewhere in the crowd, a man in a red cap shouted, "O-H!" I did not decide what happened next. It happened through me. "I-O!" Three thousand Japanese commuters stopped. The man in the red cap turned around, pushed through the crowd, grabbed my hand, and held it up in the air like I had just won something. "How long you been a Buckeye?" he asked. I said, "Six weeks." He nodded like that was a perfectly normal answer. "Welcome home," he said. I have never been to Ohio.

I love that the pro-AI people legitimately think that we anti-AI people actually use the AI slop. They love to hit you with “Okay so go without for a week then and see how hard things are.” like friend... You'll never believe this but I actively avoid AI in all of its commercial uses. It’s literally brain rot.

I'm an American who has spent 1/3 of my adult life living outside of the US including time in China, other parts of Asia, Europe and Africa. I can affirm, the freedoms, rights and values we have in the US, without question, make the United States the best country in the world. It's not even close.
