    Marvel Universe stuff

    Yeah the various Communist genocides/purges would make decent replacement for the Holocaust but I guarantee you Hollywood won't go anywhere near that. And frankly any of the African genocides are A: too small in scope and B: just going to result in more woke anti-white garbage like...

    Marvel Universe stuff

    Magnegro would definitely be the line where I stop watching the MCU. And feel like nothing but the Holocaust is simple but powerful enough to drive Magneto's contempt for all of humanity. The reveal of the serial number on Fassbender's arm in Villa Gesell is fantastic and that's not something...

    Even if KSP 2 never came out I would still cherish it forever for Lithobraking.

    Bit of cosmic justice considering that whole 'brutal gang rape and torture' thing. He also murdered his cell mate in 2011.

    Darksiders Genesis

    Not terribly important to know before playing 3 because 2 and 3 both take place before (partially parallel to?) the events of Darksiders. War learns that the Charred Council is corrupt and framed him for the false start of Armageddon. Death sacrifices himself to restore humanity at the end of 2...

    It's #4 vs #5 so it doesn't seem like it's an especially important fight, which means we should get good Cowboy.

    Darksiders Genesis

    Death just never feels like one of the goddamn FOUR HORSEMEN. War is just this unflappable brute who isn't even intimidated by Samael. His dialogue is fantastic, I love his scenes with Uriel and the refusal he throws in the Destroyer's face at the end. The dungeons and boss fights were amazing...

    NFL 2019 Season: It's Tricky!

    Well let's see. NFL as a whole is ~70% black, 30% white. 2019 starting quarterbacks are 28% black (counting Prescott and Mahomes), 72% white. Any more stunning insights you want to share with us?

    Ackshually Earth and Borisov have really similar velocities so with a good launch window (long since past) the DV requirements for a one-way trip would be remarkably low when you also add in the lack of atmosphere or gravity.

    That or profitability. I figure that within 10 years of someone sniffing out a good profit margin in space we'll have stations at every lagrange point in the entire solar system.

    It's too far away/we spotted it too late even if we had a mission ready to launch today. It reaches perihelion in early December, will still be farther away than Mars, AND on the wrong side of the sun from us. The closest thing to a viable launch window for a direct landing would have been back...

    Darksiders Genesis

    Quests, sidequests, gear, and gear rarity. You could quibble over whether thats adding arpg or mmo elements, I just got more of a MMO-esque vibe. And the reason I say hamfisted is because that stupid bullshit didn't belong in a game where you play one of the goddamn Four Horsemen of the...

    Borderlands 3

    I legitimately couldn't tell the difference in the Commander Lilith DLC for BL2 but it was super obvious to me on the BL3 trailers.

    Borderlands 3

    The original Borderlands theme was by Cage The Elephant. The Heavy did BL2 and the pre-sequel. And yeah it's just awesome that they were willing to pay a band but not willing to pay the original Claptrap voice actor.

    X-Men: Dark Phoenix (2019)

    The irony being that Marvel was wrong because the powerlevel of their Quicksilver was fine when measured against the rest of the heroes.

    Even though it spawned one of the best scenes out of the entire franchise, Quicksilver was a mistake.

    Darksiders Genesis

    So Darksiders 1 was moderately successful as a hyper-violent Soul Reaver/Zelda type, Darksiders 2 faltered when they shoehorned in a hamfisted MMO style, and Darksiders 3 was a borderline flop as a half-assed dark souls lite. Fuck going back to our roots, lets make it an ARPG now! Bleah.

    NFL 2019 Season: It's Tricky!

    Kicking someone is an attempt to cause injury outside the bounds of normal gameplay, the fact that the dude was wearing a helmet doesn't really matter. and I guarantee if you handed out a couple multi-game suspensions that shit would hardly ever happen again, which is the whole point.

    Venus is 3.4 and Mars is 1.85. Like Ukerric said it's the high eccentricity of the orbital path and low orbital period that exaggerates the effect. Some of the dwarf planets have pretty wild inclinations, Pluto is just over 17 while Pallas is almost 35.

    NFL 2019 Season: It's Tricky!

    Both teams deserved to lose. Although maybe Arians knew back to back timeouts would be a penalty and decided it was worth the risk since it would still be 4th down? Sure seemed more panicked than calculated though.

    NFL 2019 Season: It's Tricky!

    Replace 'kind of fucked' with 'completely assfucked'. Refs as bad as ever already this season. *edit* and the worst thing about badly blown bullshit like that is they do more crazy bullshit to make-up for it like that completely absurd spot.

    Ejections really aren't strong enough for this kind of shit. Kicking/stomping on people should be like a 4-6 game suspension at minimum.

    Terminator (2019)

    I guarantee T2 would still get made today. Terminator was actually highly profitable for its budget, but as long as it wasn't an outright flop there's a solid chance T2 still would have been made. T2 was made because Arnold became a big action star, not because someone specifically thought...
