The tweet linked in the article is from a dude who bitches about the "uglification of women" in games and Ubisoft being too focused on DEI. The post the article is about is clearly talking about people like him. The fact that there's only one other comment here calling this out tells me either nobody actually looked into this at all because you're all too excited to dogpile Ubisoft and don't even care why, or you agree. Both are worrying.

That's because people were going on with high expectations, right? I haven't seen it (yet?) but Morbius and Madame Web both got C+ and I'd be surprised if it's actually worse than those. Although I'd be more interested if it really is that much of a trainwreck tbh, I liked the first movie well enough but didn't think it needed a sequel, I was just going to pirate it next time I was bored at work.

That's a cool idea, thanks. I'll probably have forgotten all about this by the next time it starts so it should be a nice surprise.

Candle & Crow, book 3 in the Ink & Sigil series by Kevin Hearne came out today, I'm looking forward to getting into it. It's set in the same world as the Iron Druid Chronicles, but isn't really related outside of a couple of old characters popping up IIRC. I don't think I even knew about this until I saw it on a list of upcoming releases last week.
I'm also reading through Swifts and Us by Sarah Gibson, which is a book my gf got for me last Christmas and only just got around to handing over 9 months later. It's a non-fiction book about my favourite bird, nothing to do with pop singers.

Space Marine 2. It might happen, or it might not. The devs think it could be a good idea but Sony isn't currently interested and it's not being worked on. This is like the courier in Skyrim running up to tell you you've got no mail.

This isn't news, we've known this for months. There were articles 4 months ago with the devs talking about how these 2 games didn't meet sales expectations. At least one of them is out on PC now, though I haven't played yet because it's only been a day and the download is 140gb.

He's one of very few wrestlers from that era I've never heard anything bad about, and it always makes me nervous to mention that because I'm worried someone will come along and tear down my last remaining childhood wrestling hero.

Definitely, unless that person just has the least responsive skin in the world. A ballpoint pen is going to do more damage than you see there.

4, but it was peanut butter and jam.

That's the book I start leafing through when my D&D players screw around for too long, they know something bad is about to happen.
It's such a cool book, I love the silver edges on the pages. Not a huge fan of the stories themselves, sadly. Someday I hope they'll click with me.

I'm listening to The Wise Man's Fear, and my rule is I can only listen while jogging (training for an event in about 5 weeks). It's working, I'm getting a good 40-50 minutes a day out of it and the workouts are much more tolerable.

I finally managed to get into Breath of the Wild the other night after getting it on launch day and never enjoying it. I played 9 hours solid, then had to go to work for a few days, so I'm looking forward to going home more than usual.
Other than that, there's the seemingly endless hunt for my last 3 Monster Hunter World achievements (only ~480 hours in, so I'm doing ok). Also, I've finally got around to trying Suicide Squad, and I kinda dig it so far. Just gotta clear my plate a bit for the PC release of FF16 in a few weeks, but I can almost guarantee I'll be too stuck into either Breath of the Wild or Tears of the Kingdom to play it.

I didn't know they were doing videos, that's interesting. When podcasts do that, I always go for the audio option so I can listen while I'm working, but I might check out a few episodes on video.

Exactly. I'm there to lose myself in the crowd and to feel the music. Being right up near the amps makes me feel alive. Every bass drum beat feels like it's kicking you in the chest, every time the pyros go off you feel the heat on your face, mosh pits open up spontaneously around you, it's some of the most fun I've ever had. If I just want to listen to the band I'll stay home and put an album on, save myself a hundred bucks.

Dragon Quest Monsters is a lot of fun, looking forward to that one on PC. The switch version emulates very well, but it's one of those games I want to support so that we hopefully get more. FF16 finally! As much as I want to play that, I'd still trade this entire list for Rebirth.

She's an anti-hero more often than not now, fighting villains bigger than her. From the New 52 when she started going solo and turned on Joker (or he turned on her really), to Injustice where she was a major player in the resistance, to the DCEU where she turned against ARGUS to stop Starro which wasn't even her mission. Even in the Suicide Squad game which is part of the Arkham universe and doesn't include any kind of redemption arc for her she's still only killing the Justice League when they're being controlled by Brainiac, who is probably second only to Darkseid as far as villains go. Under duress sure, but she's doing it.

I'm looking for a mod that'll let me set up a master list of work bills that can be done by multiple pawns across multiple workstations without having to edit the bills list of each one. Does this exist? I currently use a mod (one of Dub's I want to say?) that can clone and link bills, but you still have to set up each workbench individually and remember to link anything new you add so it still gets tedious in a large colony. Something used to do this iirc, possibly Fluffy's Colony Manager, but I'm sure it didn't in the previous verstion or two and I've only started getting into 1.5 in the last week so I'm not sure if anything new has popped up. Alternatively, if this isn't already a thing and anyone's up for making it I'd be happy to throw some money your way. Thanks.
