I'll say this much. I think I've enjoyed watching and re-watching the YouTube takedowns of the film as much as I have partially because I saw firsthand how bad it was.

I still haven't seen Rise of Palpatine or anything else Nu-Star Wars since. Fool me once....

Dark humor is like food. Not everyone gets it.

I think part of this stems from the leftist's inherent inability to understand nuance. Everything is 100% serious all the time. To them, when you crack jokes about dark subject matter, you're actively contributing to it. Instead of, y'know laughing at it.

It's funny. I was worried that the Talking Flowers were going to be this in Mario Wonder, but they turned out to be pretty lovable in the end.

Wheatley and GlaDOS will forever be the peak of color commentary characters in games like these. It's a shame that writing in general has decayed to this degree....

Kind of hard to be presumed innocent when you flaunt your guilt.

It really is fascinating to me how some people are incapable of realizing that generalizations aren't absolute, that it's possible to acknowledge exceptions or compartmentalize differing groups within groups

From what I remember reading, he invented a buttload of products from peanuts to help encourage crop rotation for optimal soil quality. I think people look at that and assume Peanut Butter was one of them.

Banjo-Kazooie/Tooie remakes/sequel?

I know odds are they'd ruin it. The magic that made those games was rare to begin with. But a man can dream....

I'm surprised Caddy has the balls to admit to appreciating the female form.

Perhaps, but I still get Nessie/Bigfoot vibes from all this.

I refuse to believe in this day and age that we don't have twenty different tic-toks recorded from thirty different angles if it actually happened.

Oh, I thought he was meaning Black Holes didn't exist. I would have been a little sad about that.

Recanting Black Holes? Explain.

Okay, but how legit is it? I don't believe for a second they'd spill all the real beans without whitewashing the list first.

Can I get a cute assassin waifu desperate for a cover relationship then? Or do I need an adopted psychic daughter first?

Laughs in MegaMan Battle Network.

I could totally see Bandit playing something like this with his kids. Just... keeping it age appropriate.

Sorry for the delay. Was out of the house for Christmas.

Here's an example. On the left are my original, all from my head designs for my two main characters, in the middle are the best AI prompts I could generate for them, and on the right are my new designs taking some cues from how the AI interpreted my descriptions of them.

Merry Christmas!

I've used some of the AI generation to create concept art to help flesh out ideas that I've been having a hard time visualizing. Then I draw the actual subject myself using the generation as a reference. It's helped a lot

Hi, Pot. Meet kettle.

Bold take, to raceswap The Grinch.

You definitely do. Part of why I bring it up is in the second book, the "enlightened" human villain gives himself over to "the great force of the universe" and immediately regrets it once the demonic entities he's been chatting with accept the invitation.

Demons would fit the secular definition of extraterrestrial life. Especially the interdimentional variety. While I definitely believe God isn't so creatively bankrupt as to stop short at Earth, (The Space Trilogy is so good...) I wouldn't be surprised to learn our leaders have been consorting with literal demons playing the role of ET. Pretending to be angels of light is their MO, after all.

I don't want to live in a world where you can't express an idea because someone else expressed it first and called dibs. Actual plagiarism sucks, but how are you supposed to be able to avoid reiterating something someone else said in a world where literally EVERYONE is pouring their stream of consciousness into the void for archival?

Many of the greatest minds in history believed in God and studied His world to better understand His mindset as a Creator. Ironically, I see a lot more blind faith in people who believe Academia to have all the answers.
