    Book of Eli's conceit was dumb.

    the bible is the only thing that can repair a shattered civilisation

    praise Mormon Jesus

    The Bible is the most widely printed and translated book in history

    Treasured by its devotees, many of whom would be willing to die to protect it

    Yet somehow there is only one copy left anywhere

    Somehow

    yeah, like

    even if I granted everything else about the movie

    the idea that there are no bibles left in motel rooms or people's homes or libraries or bookstores or anything is just...lol

    when I saw the trailer I had a sinking feeling it would be the Bible based on the sheer portentousness of the movie title, but I was hoping it would be a copy of "The Way Things Work" or even the last copy of Playboy #1 with Marilyn Monroe or something

    Make it really meta

    It is the last copy of A Canticle for Liebowitz

    Feral

    no matter what else happens between us

    I will always love you because of this one post

    I guess a lot of the complaints about its difficulty were just from people who misunderstood how the perspective worked.

    You can beat it in 4 minutes. What did Atari cartridges cost back then? $50?

    My American Giant size is XL because I am a big boy who needs a big boy hoodie. The best part is that the cut assumes that your chest is larger than your gut, which is the case with me and means that it automatically looks tailored and super flattering.

    I'm so glad I'm at least reasonably proportioned enough that clothes don't look weird on me.

    I got real tired of premium brands topping out at chest sizes that are too small and mainstream brands assuming that if I wear an XL, I must have a huge pot belly, leaving giant drapes of unused fabric. I should just lose about 20 pounds and slip into premium large but...

    Women's clothing is weird because I really, really need a tall, but some stores don't offer those, instead assuming everyone is gonna be between five feet and five eight. But when stores do have a tall, I'm pretty reasonably framed, which is extremely nice. Whoo androgyny.

    Best thing about transgirls is that they all tend to be real tall. Makes it easier to have legs that go all the way down to the floor, etc.

    Cinders

    And yep. Tgirls who transitioned after puberty have a male distribution of heights, which is basically the female distribution+4 inches. So plenty of us are tall.

    I basically never need heels.

    I hate hate HATE that ultimate team in Madden 25 needs to be online-only, against random people.

    I would sign up for a league in a heartbeat if there was a way to do that... but Ultimate team is the mode I want to play, and I have to deal with kids screaming in my ear and people hate-dropping the game in the 4th quarter.

    Fucking hell, its ruining an otherwise good mode in this game. It basically blends a collectible card game with Madden in which you start with a random draw deck that is tilted towards a certain playstyle, and there are challenges that either give you specific player cards, or booster packs. This is complete with an auction house, the ability to share cards with friends, etc.

    The "deck" you build is your team, and there are "chemistry" ratings (like 6 or 7) that show how well your team is built for offense passing, or offense running, defensive coverage, etc. etc. - It's a fucking glorious blend of strategy and collectables with the game of football, and it is being fucking ruined by 9 year olds for me.
