You know how some people unironically use the word "NPC" as an insult to imply some people can't think for themselves? This is the opposite of that.

I believe in Lando's ability.
I just wish he took a page from Oscar's book and
1. Became more ruthless
2. Let his driving do the talking
I'm hoping Lando and Oscar finish 1-2 this year, in any order. Doesn't matter who's winning the WDC as long as it's either of them.

Clueless and/or pandering to the "wrong" kind of demographic. Like yeah I get from a cynical POV you wanna get the "bro gamer" share of the pie that steadily fell away from the franchise as it showed its progressive/inclusive cred but they couldn't even be bothered to defend the staff.

The game is by and large bug-free too, so they could have done minor content patches leading up to a DLC or two.
Also interesting how even Bethesda managed to salvage Fallout 76 by continuing to work on it instead of throwing it under the bus.

It's rather ironic that in Book 3 she wrote about a racist, classist sack of shit in Aunt Marge - and proceeded to reveal that she was Aunt Marge in the flesh herself

Once again white guys appropriating the history and culture of black people

It boggles my mind that the morons shrieking that Ukraine was the victim of US/NATO imperialism and the whole war was just an imperialist proxy war are cheering for this when if it goes through, is literally an imperialist resource grab with the implied threat of Russia as leverage for the extortion

Its the classic “i’m not racist” liberal white american tactic. Offer/forcibly relocate marginalized americans to wherever to “solve the problem” but continue to let it persist.
Its how my family ended up in the north. And its exactly why the US is the way it is

you want the whole world to accommodate your country being full of morons and get mad when anyone tells you no, that is who you are

It's a kind of solipsistic view of reality that ultimately fails to hold up to any inspection. It feels futile and desperate to me.

He has more songs on Beach Boys albums than the Beatles do.

So you expect them to be the backmarker this year I gather. They were P6 last year on the back of Sao Paulo and their fourth-quarter upgrades combined with Gasly having amazing races. I guess their big storyline is just how long of a lifeline Jack Doohan has.

I remember that dub. English dub with the Japanese Digimon names but the NA stage names (e.g. Rookie, Champion), and of course the music was the original Japanese soundtrack (which is why we grew up with Butter-Fly rather than Hey Digimon or whatever it's called)

Stroll is a dumbass but from all accounts nobody really *hates* him the way people hate Ben Sulayem. Overall he's a nepo kid who has some talent in a racing car who overstayed his welcome.

So as with a lot of things in American politics, it was a short-to-medium term solution that got ossified into a long-term practice whose disadvantages were only realized too late?
(Like the Thirteenth Amendment providing a loophole to keep slavery legal as punishment for a crime)

Also it seems their release schedule is roughly quarterly; remember production started during Revice era or thereabouts.

It's the ultimate child's fantasy where they take all of their toys and imagine them in a big battle with each other. The plot bends backwards to accommodate that.

To the second sentence, yes, surprisingly. They're the live action film equivalent of junk food, sure, but they're just filling the niche Michael Bay movies used to back in the day while securing further control over their IP.
