They sent me a Prime Day push notification telling me it would be a great time to buy a second copy of the Robotech model kit I'm still waiting for them to deliver. It wasn't even on sale! It was twenty bucks more expensive than when I bought it a week ago!
They love to tell us about how he's just a silly little fella, so befuddled by this complicated modern world, bumbling his way through the dissolution of human rights in the United States like Jerry Lewis or some fucking thing.
Oh, they're not targeting the community in GENERAL, they're just targeting every single thing a trans person can or might ever do INDIVIDUALLY. Completely different! Thanks for clearing that up, The New York Times!
I love that it plays like a horror version of Big Trouble In Little China, where he's just throwing so much weird stuff and imagery and ideas at you that you're as perpetually off your footing as the characters are. It's an underrated way of doing cosmic horror on a budget.
Literally my entire family is not evacuating. I guess I did always wonder a little what it would be like to be an orphan.

I hate it, but there's nothing like living in a state of consistent, creeping fascism to show you just how much of a public figure's progressivism is just glomming on to what's fashionable in the moment. Many will just as easily swing the other way when it goes out of style.
I think there's stuff in Starfield that they could be proud of and learn from, but hot damn do those parts feel accidental. They've become utterly stagnant... So completely locked into the one kind of game that their proprietary engine allows them to make, they can't seem to imagine anything else.
That is gonna look so much more sad after a single year in the elements.
