Featuring an ass-kicking Choctaw superhero and an MVP cast of Native actors, the Disney+ series falls under the new “Marvel Spotlight” banner.

You don't have to have an opinion about everything.

Last paragraph...

"Then the wheel falls off while you're driving, or the autopilot plows into a jersey wall, and you're meant to be thrilled.* Glad even. Grateful! This is proof: You were an early adopter. A beta tester, a brave explorer. You're helping to work out the bugs, mapping new territory. Who knows? In a hundred years this car's descendants might be as reliable as cars that by then will be 150 years old, and you will have played a part in making it so. Won't that be nice.

*Assuming you lived through it."

Wildermyth. It is a good game.

I would love to buy this game on sale and never get around to playing it.

Isn't that what Grounded is? I haven't played it personally, but it reviews well and that seems to be their aim.

Tried making this combination based on the lyric in "Beautiful World" by Colin Hay. I went with a 3:1 ratio of Irish and lapsang souchang.

It was terrible.

I stopped playing BG3 to try Starfield when it came out. I got through the intro, landed at that first populated world, and stopped to talk to a janitor at the train station. She said something like, "Boy, I sure would like a cappuccino from TeraBrew!" and a quest tracker popped up for me to go buy her a cup of coffee. I delivered it to her and she gave me a bag of apple slices that healed 1 HP or some shit.

I went back to playing BG3.

I saw it today. It was fine. It's far from "the worst movie in the MCU" like some reviews I've seen. And I didn't watch Ms. Marvel or Secret War, either. Still followed the story fine (I am a casual comics fan so I'm already vaguely familiar w/ Ms. Marvel and the Kree/Skrull war, in fairness).

Biggest contributor to the low B.O. in my opinion was the studios dragging out the writers & actors strikes and not being able to mount any publicity for the movie. I only remembered it was opening this weekend when I saw all the negative headlines about it coming out.

Well, that confirms it. There's no way a millionaire could have had a hot tub installed since last June!

This isn't going to go down with the strongly Catholic members of my family, all of whom believe they know Church doctrine better than the pope.

But didn't he specifically tell them they should just drop their suit and leave him alone? How rude of them.

I have fallen into the same trap that I always do with this type of game, and which I begged myself not to this time, to no avail: Roll a character, be having a good time. Suddenly think, "I wonder if there's another way to solve this area if my character were any good at stealth..." Roll another character, replay the same 8-10 hours of the game. Think to myself, "that was interesting, but how would that play out if I took the bad guy path? Or if I was a magic user? Or if I had a mustache?" Replay the same 8-10 hours of the game, ad nauseam.

And this is even after the 100 hrs I sank in Early Access.
