I was severely underpaid in SF 12 years ago, at 70k, compared to my peers. The lure was that I had a lot of stock options coming in over time.

70K in SF is having to have roommates, and be familiar with ramen kits at home hehe. Irvine was about 3 to 5% cheaper, so not significantly. Although it is easier to have a car in Irvine, Cali.

He has skill, but chooses to draw a lot of black elves. I would think more likely that he knows where the jobs are, but could be a true believer.

I like when they rail against corruption and monopolies, but that hasn't really happened in recent years, as those entities are on 'the left's' side. Big chunks of 'the right' are captured as well.

There's already too many chicks in the cast. Odysseus is a masculine hunter, fighter, bargainer who can outsmart most men and some Gods. There's no way they don't try and beta him. Aside from Penelope, why so many women in the cast? It should be a bad ass adventure movie. This implies there are going to be lots of flashbacks, and Gods using men as pawns type 'watching from above' scenes, or more likely egregiously 'modern audience'd' shit.

She was married to him for 3 whole years, wants money for life, and every time he makes more money she wants a cut of that too. Sounds fair...

I got Yellow Taxi, the first Hades, and Enshrouded.

Dave the Diver and Rimworld are great buys

Path of Exile 2 is really good, but it will be free when early access is over. Still I've put like 90 hours in it already. Fun.

The cops don't even try to help if they are there. It's been numerous NY lawsuits. Resulting in the cops having the blanket "Not obligated to intervene" armor.

It's the same reason even many normies balked at Last of Us 2. Here, play as Joel's killer, and watch her/him get plowed, you being pegged by Naughty Dog by proxy.

If your audience is mostly dudes, stop trying to peg them. It's just grooming and with more steps.

It wont end until the big access media outlets are gone, and there's a true AAA crash and realignment.

Throw in the Jon Kent threeway with trans and gay boyfriend comic that is coming, and D.C. is trying to end 2024 on the most ridiculous note.

It looks kinda cheap. Especially some of the other heroes like Hawk Girl. Like she looks worse than most convention cosplays. It has a lot of Gunn-isms on the surface. Giant monster fight at the end, lots of B-roll characters. If they were going to modern it up, they should have been a little more thoughtful. For instance, the "Daily Planet' would be better served as being a media/podcast outlet like Daily Wire, rather than a print newspaper.

They did Jon Kent dirty, but I guess at least he looks like he'll have a heart attack, rather than get killed by a tornado.

Krypto the dog will make the film at least 400 million, or clean up in the toy department. Grogu look out.

I don't like the costumes I saw. They are digging for a lot of nostalgia. The only saving grace to me, is it didn't seem overly dark or cynical like the Snyder trailers.

I feel like they removed it because it really drives home how looney toon crazy this shit is. Like that little kid in the bathroom moment, during the more intense breakdown, was giving "I'm about to be beaten to death by this teen boy with severe dysphoria and envy." vibes.

Doesn't this further illustrate that it's still a combo of mental illness and perv? The kid can't even function without constant panics and breakdowns. Anyone with actual compassion knows this person outta be institutionalized until their mind is whole again.

It's obviously, overwhelmingly good that it was removed. What the fuck would this be in kid's show for? It's dark, nutty shit. Oh, I know why, because it's to normalize and confuse and prime another generation for grooming.

Yeah that whole office needs to be disbarred. If they wanna be lawyers again, do it in a different state, and go through the bar process. I bet without DEI/nepo help they wouldn't pass. Listening to Fani's speeches, she is extremely low IQ. Same with Wade. That question where you can see his brain cooking for a solid 15 seconds before he just says 'No.' hAhAHaha shit is gold

I've seen a deer eat a bird. I dunno how it got one, if it was a chick that fell out of nest, or if the bird was dead, but the deer was munching on it, bones, feathers and all.

Nice. They gonna try to make the US even more like China's walled off internet. Guaranteeing we lose the competition in many sectors.

How are they gonna market this monstrosity? She's going to look stupid in action/gameplay sequences, and it looks like corporate HR brand in the cut scenes. This might be a true flop. Sci-fi is already more niche than other genres.
