    The Undisputed Unified Wrestling Thread

    He's still months away from actually competing, but damn... look at that pop.

    [TV] Talk about the last TV you watched, the catchall thread

    It's still a welcome move. For a long time, advertisers would demand the volume get jacked up on their commercials because it made them harder to ignore. It was an annoying trend that sometimes still pops up.

    [MMO] Final Fantasy XIV (we get to be cats!)

    To be fair, this is me and SMITE and alot of lootboxy games. I know what it's like to just have an easily scratchable addiction and it fucking sucks when it involves a social activity a lot of your friends engage in.

    2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine

    The stated goal of the current powers in Russia is the eventually "reclaimation" of all previously held territory and expansion Westwards to defeat the decadent western Nazis. This will never happen; considering the state of everything else in their country, we don't have an reason to believe...

    Coronavirus Thread

    There's a recent scientific paper out that indicates that the COVID death numbers in the US are significantly higher than reported, mostly because red areas of the country under-reported deaths as COVID related for social and political reasons.

    [TV] Talk about the last TV you watched, the catchall thread

    The Voyage Home has kind of been re-embraced as a "good" Star Trek film in recent years by fans who understand that it brings a lot of much needed levity and humor to the franchise. When you judge the film by it's own merits and what it's trying to do, it's actually quite entertaining.

    Yeah, I was honestly surprised it took my mother two years to get it as a school teacher.

    Milkshake Ducks - The official thread of falling from grace

    The huge irony of this is I remember there explicitly being an episode of Boy Meets World where Fred Savage (a college professor) sexually harasses Topanga and the college kind of drags their feet about doing anything about it.

    [Announcement] Halforums Party Game Night! (First Friday of every month) (Formally Jackbox)

    Sounds like we might want to punt to next week and do it on Saturday.

    The Disney Thread: For Everything Concerning the House of Mouse

    It's very clear they wanted to do a Bosozoku gang but didn't understand that you can't do that on sand unless it's like... dirt bikes or something. So instead we got slow moving scooters.

    The Disney Thread: For Everything Concerning the House of Mouse

    Yeah, what @chris said. You might want to watch some Clone Wars? I'd definitely watch the episode "Twin Suns" from Rebels at the very least, as I suspect that's about the time frame this series takes place and deals with Obi-wan on Tatooine.

    Random Video Game Crap

    Binwin's been part of Acquisitions Inc. for years, as a founding member even... I can't think of a time he wasn't part of the yearly game. They also have Beadle & Grimm, the characters of Matthew Lillard and Bill Rehor. When he's not acting, directing, or shilling for NFTs (Come on, Lillard!)...

    Shouldn't be John McCain. Should be Sarah Palin.

    [Brazelton] Neal Adams

    I know that quote's from the Deadline article (and not you, so no blame aimed at you ;)), but it really does a disservice to the artists and writers who wrote legitimately fun and interesting stories for Batman (and others) during the Silver Age while the Comics Code was in effect. People act...

    The Awesome Videos Thread (with Extra Sauce!)

    I'm just gonna say that Daftpunk is timeless and without them we wouldn't have Deadmau5 and Skrillex, let alone scores of others.

    [Brazelton] Twitter

    I wonder how long until we get "Twitter, but by someone else who actually understands what moderation is" from someone. It sure as hell isn't Mastadon.

    2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine

    It has to be. Finding 3 copies of The Sims 3 on short notice was probably a several day task... it's a 13 year old game!

    2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine

    Considering that France and Germany have been caught selling weapons to Russia despite embargos dating from the Crimea Invasion, I think a bunch of war prizes are the least of their worries.

    The Awesome Videos Thread (with Extra Sauce!)

    I've actually heard that this book is actually quite a bit more progressive than the books and takes just the meanest/best swings at Rowling for shit she's pulled since the books finished. Chuck Tingle's a legend.
