It's tragically ironic that in my experience, access to children's books that introduce LGBTQIA+ identities would have helped us **a lot**.

This results is the Decks being played majorly being rude and making the environment feel worse to play it. There's no feedback for playing whimsical decks, aside from cold hard Win/Lose.

A good read! Thank you!
I think Arena needs to urgently improve the social aspect of it. It's effectively like playing Vs. Bots, which means there's no social fallout for playing Rude decks. It results in the community feeling pressured to follow suite because there's no consequences for doing so.

Politics is about collaboration and communication. So it's wild typical elections is, "who has the most 1st choice votes by trashing the other candidates, resulting in the winner being the one who didn't often secure at least 50% of the first choice vote."

I'm assuming you're talking about trans people?

I'm glad you still want to promote their work :)

When I was attending job interviews at 25, one manager who interviewed me was early 20s. What a silly absolutist take they have.

"7 Deadly Sins" isn't Biblical. But the Bible certainly contains many examples of what Sins can be and what qualifies as Sin. Examples by your cartoon.

I've always presumed the "Seven Deadly Sins" was Pop Culture, and therefore unreliable metric to gauge one's holiness. Which makes the "gotcha" phrase they spew "Pride is a Sin" really nonsensical, before you even explain to them exactly what the "proudness" in LGBTQIA+ Pride is.

As a child (2 or 3 years old) in a public swimming pool, I literally chose to sit down. Issue was, that meant I was fully submerged. Thankfully my dad,who was with me, literally picked me up out of the water.

It amuses me in Facebook "Help" is next to "Report", as a subtle unintended reminder that some people really need therapy.

I hope because they enjoyed having a Live Audience for one game this season, they would be open to producing a US Taskmaster, even though Gamechanger flirts with the spirit of it time-to-time.

The closest there is ignoring the official US version.

Generation 3 is the right nostalgia for me.
I was there for gen 1 & 2 and delved intensely into those, but Gen 3 was the best to me.

My only criticism of Arena is that there's no way to communicate with your opponent (except Emote usage). So it's best to treat it as Vs. Computer who'll likely use Rude decks.

Nice!

As an artist I find it intensely frustrating that places like Pinterest and Search Engines are filled with generative AI. This makes it significantly harder to find actually helpful reference images to study and learn from.
This is an absolute truth. Generative AI is making my work much harder.

The Starter Kits can be a nice way to guarantee filling in gaps, whilst having an excuse to invite others into the hobby. "Golly gosh, I have two premade decks ready to go. What are the chances?!"

I had this with Bloomburrow, and I must gather all my little anthromorphic children in my nesting binder.

It's why I like Drop Out's editing is that in the event things have to be cut for time, they ensure the whole show still feels good and there's no jarring continuity errors.

I think Doctor Who is the only one, but I haven't done so in a while, so my brain is forgetty. I'm aiming to rewatch revived onwards again.

I'd say 2. The token non-comedic performer who you vaguely know but not really because you don't watch much BBC programming.
I stopped watching those shows because cut rounds would affect "who wins" and the lack of continuity frustrated me.

This is a superb video essay on that question. (his other essays are great too.)

To be specific to your question, the thesis response is: Drop Out talent perform to each other, or Sam.
UK panel shows perform to a live audience.
But Dropout is VERY close, & be excellent.

I have no idea if the tech issue is legit or part of the experience.

In uni I'd have appreciated being given a short list of books to read for my dissertation, instead of me ordering books I thought might help, skim read most of them and realise they're very unhelpful but also lacking background to comprehend what I'm reading.

It's wild to see such crimes against humanity, and then have memes in response as a way to cope.

You can also swap the American Flag with the abstract concept of Martyr Complex.
