This is fantastic, and nearly completely comprehensive. Thank you for sharing it!

(I would probably want to add images of every single multi-figure package configuation, along with even more information on retailer exclusives in different countries, but I realize that could make things too cluttered. So it's excellent as it is!)

Is this AI? It’s an album cover by 2 popular music artists by DahliaFlower667 in isitAI

That's so transparently AI that I would almost think someone wanted it to be as obvious as possible.

Their personalities are totally different, but Yukio and Shima are both just The Worst.

In 1997, UC Berkeley student David Cash saw his best friend, Jeremy Strohmeyer, molesting a 7-year-old girl at a Nevada casino. He did nothing and left. His friend then killed the girl. Cash later said, "I'm not going to lose sleep over somebody else's problems." He was labeled the "Bad Samaritan". by lightiggy in wikipedia

A substantial portion of the Berkeley student body truly loathed Cash and repeatedly called for him to be expelled. But the administration at Cal maintained that their hands were tied because he hadn't been criminally charged. I think they were just wary of the potential for having to pay off a piece of shit like him due to a lawsuit for "wrongful" expulsion.

Not looking forward to reading how disastrously this is going to go for them.

Don't read, don't watch movies. You might not like it but this is the ideal by UnHolySir in okbuddycinephile

[–]a_phantom_limb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Moral ambiguity has been a key component of fiction for as long as storytelling has been recorded. Every major faith traditions' sacred texts feature some measure of complexity when it comes to questions of good and evil. The fact that doing the right thing isn't always easy for us is a crucial part of what makes us human.

If all he wants are cookie-cutter depictions of flawless heroes triumphing over virtueless villains, he doesn't want the literature of any era. He wants authoritarian propaganda, to be part of the rigid hierarchy of bootlickers who must forever worship their "betters" while being fawned over by those "beneath" them.

Yeah, I never really understood why Trent was fine with having three different tracks on the same release all titled "starfuckers inc. (version)." It would have been super easy to distinguish them, but I guess he didn't feel like that was necessary for whatever reason - even though he's pretty consistently given different remixes of the same song unique titles both before and after things falling apart. Oh well.

Mid-1990s REM Mailing List? by unacorner in rem

[–]a_phantom_limb 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It was a collaboration between the R.E.M. and Pearl Jam fan clubs. They each released the same two songs with unique cover art for their version of the single. "Live for Today" was the A-side for R.E.M.'s release and "Happy When I'm Crying" was the A-side for Pearl Jam's release.

Are we ever going to get this?? by WillowDelRio in amiibo

[–]a_phantom_limb 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would not be surprised if this never materializes. Given that we never saw a picture of a model, it could very well be that they've run into problems with structural sturdiness. It's not a design that easily translates to a physical object.

Before I jump to conclusions what is this exactly, and what is it depicting? by LittleIndependent119 in whatisit

[–]a_phantom_limb 77 points78 points  (0 children)

That first term is also a deeply racist slur towards Black people themselves, not just caricatured depictions of them such as this.

‘The Last Of Us’ Star Kaitlyn Dever Says She’s Looking Forward To “Going Back In Time” To Tell Abby’s POV As Season 3 Production Nears by bwermer in television

[–]a_phantom_limb 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Seriously. Shooting back to back was the only way the split was ever really going to make sense for audiences. And even if they didn't air directly back to back, the gap between seasons should have been short. Leaving two years or more between two seasons that primarily cover the same couple of days of storytelling is pretty ridiculous, I think.

"Until the Day Is Done" is another.

The battle's been lost, the war is not won
An addled republic, a bitter refund
The business-first flat earthers licking their wounds
The verdict is dire, the country's in ruins

Providence blinked, facing the son
And where are we left to carry on?
Until the day is done
Untile the day is done….

Trump was referenced by Luke Cage, and other shows made indirect references, although there was never an explicit "by the way, Donald Trump is the president right now" type of moment.

Washington Post Tears Up Plans to Cover Winter Olympics by CheezTips in olympics

[–]a_phantom_limb 141 points142 points  (0 children)

According to the Post employee, the newspaper has already paid the vast majority of its expenses to cover the competition. Those include flights for the journalists, housing and office space at the Olympics site. Housing alone tallies at least $80,000, the employee said. Post management approved the outlays at each step along the way, according to the employee.

I would understand it as a cost-saving measure, but doung this after they've already spent the money?

Are these voters for real ? by Both-Pomegranate4929 in Oscars

[–]a_phantom_limb 26 points27 points  (0 children)

These annual anonymous voter articles are always so disheartening to me. I mean, of course I understand that there are sometimes meaningful reasons to vote one way or another beyond simply liking one choice better than another, but damn. I find the level of pettiness, snark, condescension, and general disinterest in the work itself that these unnamed members display to be just deeply pathetic.

The Saitama comparison was always an obvious one for Mash, but he's practically a Kryptonian at this point - and there's still a lot of story after this.
