This person's only understanding for the Monster comes from its name and its use as a jumpscare tactic in haunted houses. There's no other possible way to explain how badly they fucked this up.
brigadierginger.bsky.social (@brigadierginger.bsky.social) reply parent
Even if his only source is the Boris Karloff depiction, he STILL completely whiffs his understanding of the character because the Karloff Monster is ALSO depicted as a tragic misunderstood outsider! This is some seriously cosmic level dumb-fuckery!

Sliced ginger root, sliced lemon and orange(peel on), some fresh rosemary, and honey. Simmer it in a covered pot of water for a minimum of 20 minutes. The steam helps with congestion, and you can strain it for a drink that helps with both a sore throat and an upset stomach!

Above all the others, this one is by far the most disappointing to me. Warwick Davis was one of my all-time favorite actors. As a kid who was exceptionally short, seeing someone like him as the hero was inspiring. But if this is where he stands, then fuck him.

Apparently yes they can, but there are ways to treat it. My scars from my leg surgery were sore and tight for years. Because they were relatively small though(about the length of my pointer finger), my doc suggested I massage them periodically to loosen them up. They don't bother me much now.

I'm sorry. I understand that feeling. Keep in mind though that sometimes it just happens that way. Trauma responses don't give up easy. It's a continuous battle, and sometimes they get a lucky shot in. It doesn't mean you've failed, it just means it happened. And that's okay.

In 2019 the va for Reigen, Chris Niosi, was accused of sexual abuse, to which he admitted publicly was true. Did Crunchyroll drop him? No! Didn't even make a statement! So remember future va's: being a sex pest is fine, but wanting a liveable wage for your fellow va's is a step too far!

I'd call bull, but I had a similar experience as a kid. I was living pretty much dead-center of town. Woke up and found a cow in my front yard. Turns out the neighbors down the road had a modest size property and one lone escape-artist cow who decided our yard was the cool place to be.

I'm surprised I never got a crazy religious nut experience when I worked in retail. Closest I got was one of those fake million dollar bills with bible quotes on it silently handed to me. Would have loved to see their reaction to being told I'm a Pagan.

Crunchyroll had to settle a class-action lawsuit for illegally selling registered users personal information without their knowledge or consent for YEARS. Crunchyroll once produced an original anime, but delayed its release for 2 years because the anti-lgbtq+ chuds said mean mean about them.

I think there's something up specifically with their 3-month cards. I gave up buying them because EVERY time for like a year straight they wouldn't work and I'd have to go through their shitty cust. support. They won't take my card for subs either, BUT they'll take it for merch for some reason.

Crunchyroll started out as a pirate streaming site! But unlike most other pirate sites at the time, they locked their stolen goods behind a paywall. Worse still, those fansubs were often stolen directly from the fansubbers without their even knowing. Did they get a cut of that paywall money? Nope!

Crunchyroll once lied to a game studio making a LEGAL Tower of God game claiming they had exclusivity contracts with the va's, and threatened legal action if they tried to hire them. They told this to the va's as well and threatened to blacklist them if they signed on to va in the game.

There was a time when Crunchyroll had a "free with ads" model, and their mobile app was so dogshit at loading ads it would crash the app so regularly that it was basically unusable. Crunchyroll's official response to customer complaints about this for the longest time was "buy premium to fix it lol"

Crunchyroll stole a va's mail and gave out their contents to in-house employees, which is literally a felony. Crunchyroll supports pedophiles via their decision to license the Ruroni Kenshin reboot, a franchise created by a guy who had SO MUCH CP ON HIS PC THE COPS THOUGHT HE WAS SELLING IT.

Crunchyroll fired the va for Mob because he asked them to at least CONSIDER having a SINGLE MEETING with SAG-AFTRA. Crunchyroll bought out RightStuf and promised to honor the Dirty Pair Kickstarter that they had already completed, then buried it and hasn't said anything about it in over 2 years.

Iirc he explicitly said as much in an interview around the lead-up to Shadowbringers. I don't remember his exact words, but they were basically along the lines of "as long as it isn't for cheating and you keep it quiet, it's fine". Alas, modders tend to be an obnoxious lot in my experience...

90% is for farming loot, the other 10% is for roulette leveling. I can understand wanting a more streamlined dungeon/raid layout for those(it can get very frustrating if you're having no luck), but I definitely don't see it as a justifiable reason for the devs to neuter EVERY dungeon.

Record of Lodoss War! It's older, but it's a seminal fantasy anime that contributed heavily to fantasy anime as a genre. Slayers is also older and is peak comedic fantasy anime. The 1998 Merlin miniseries starring Sam Neill was good, and its sequel was okay.

Scarcity, nostalgia and aesthetics. That's pretty much all it boils down to for collectors. That's why sealed copies of old, hard to find games/toys/etc are so valuable and can sell for high prices. Because they're scarce and someone has nostalgia for it and finds it aesthetically pleasing to own.
