Life Lessons with Korra
I’ve always wanted to talk about this little life lesson Korra taught me but never got around to writing it until now. This story starts way back around the time that Korra was being revealed at Comiccon, and because I’m a slave to the traditional essay form I’m going to go ahead and tell you my point right now:
If you’re a heterosexual (or bisexual, I should say) man,...

Blizzard fixes Diablo III gold duplication bug,... →
Players complain that duplicated gold has ruined the in-game auction houses.
So the decision to make Diablo III always-online to prevent cheating took a turn for the worse today when potentially “quadrillions” of in-game currency flooded the market, ruining the real-money auction house. This of course surprised abso-f***ing-lutely no one.
But yeah let’s keep up the always...

nebulalexicon:
You make eye contact.
You’re sitting across from one another on the bus: you’re headed home, he’s headed God knows where. You are twenty-two, comely, in a relationship. You have long brown hair. He is somewhere in his fifties, you guess, and the years have started to put a weight on his…
So I wrote this short story that I’d like you all to read. When I say short I...

Making the Masterpiece That Is Our Pro Bending...
Man, making that Pro Bending team cosplay for Wondercon was ridiculously hard. Here, come share my pain:
[[MORE]]
Here’s an overview of our materials (initial materials, anyway). We were going to use vinyl and the tiger-print fabric to make padding and put it on top of either white scrubs or a white jumpsuit. We eventually went with cheap Red Kap coveralls to put our pads on.

Wondercon (More Like FUNdercon) 2013
Wow, what a weekend! Wondercon 2013 has wrapped up, I’m back home (much poorer in money but much richer in art), and I’m ready to crash for a few days. But before I do, I’ve gotta tell you just how amazing Wondercon was this year.
As for general impressions, Wondercon was better this year than 2012. I went to fewer panels and it was more crowded this year, but the number of...

Wondercon Nonsense Incoming!
I have a 3-day pass to Wondercon! Friday was awesome, but Saturday will be even more awesome because I’ll be going dressed up.
That’s right! My 5 friends and I are going to Wondercon on Saturday as 2 Pro Bending teams of our own creation: the Otter Penguins and the Tiger Seals (trust me, when you see us you’ll know which is which).
If you’re going to be at Wondercon...

Instead of making a digital card game...

Starcraft: Raynor, Kerrigan, Queen of Blades Kerrigan, Hydralisk, Zeratul, Fenix.
Diablo: Witch Doctor, Monk, Demon Hunter, Barbarian, Wizard, Tyrael.
Warcraft: Thrall, Arthas,...

Blizzard Announces Another F***ing Online Card... →
So you see when Blizzard announced earlier this month that they would unveil a “new” “game”, this is what they meant.
An online Warcraft card game. Even though there’s already a World of Warcraft card game.
Well consider me blown away.

De-extinction is a real thing that we can do now,...
iheartchaos:
While the dream of bringing dinosaurs back to life might never happen, genetic science is at a point where we could bring other, more recently vanished species back to life. It won’t be long before “de-extinction” becomes a thing, where we can undo some of the extinction that either we, or nature as a whole have caused, and now that we’re here, we’re asking whether we should.

83 Damn Good Movies: 2012 Argo
Argo (2012)
I’m back to movie reviews! In tradition with my 83 Damn Good Movies series, I’m going to review 2012’s Best Picture winner, Argo. After all, what’s the point of saying I’ve seen and reviewed 84 out of 85 Best Picture winners?
Argo opens with a history lesson. Now, I normally dislike movies that do this because they present that history in the most...
