That diving board sounds fucking wild

Even Law & Order, which exists within a fantasy timeline where there's actual accountability

My mom's (teacher) old boss (principal) literally told her that she shouldn't even know what the kids do after they leave school, basically saying she shouldn't care about the kids.

Like why the fuck else do you become a teacher?!

Jesus fucking Christ. When I was in middle school in the southern Midwest, on the first day of school I had the teachers straight up ask if anyone had a preferred name other than the one on their records. Unprompted. And no one gave a shit.

Ah yes. Another community I didn't know I needed to follow.

Maybe you don't live on the coast or near any Hispanic communities.

Why though?

I'm not surprised. There's a post over there semi-ironically thanking Trump for truly shattering the global image of American superiority.

Meanwhile, the very same EU is falling prey to the exact same kind of demagogues we did. And no one but a few even brought that up.

Which I'm absolutely sure it will for at least 90% of it. I mean even US Weekend Update will make jokes about other countries' news sometimes.

Yeah I wouldn't be "celebrating" right now when at least half of Europe is falling right into the same type of government: fascist ones.

I am an American. I fucking hate this world we live in now. Everyone is still playing partisan games when the world is actively falling apart around us, and we continue to stick our heads in the sand and say "I know you are but what am I?"

The Arkham games are absolutely perfect.

You should definitely go through Arkham Knight after City if you haven't already. It looks even better and holds up just as much if not a bit more. And don't listen to the haters about the Batmobile.

 

I was just wondering everyone's favorite level(s) were/are. You can explain why you like it, or you can just name drop the level you like most.

Mine are probably:

  1. Assault on The Control Room, I love the big epic set pieces of the level, and it has probably the best/most "examples" of what Halo is as a game than any other in CE. You have big weapons, vehicles, large open battles, and awesome music.

  2. Delta Halo from Halo 2. I love the lush jungle setting and going through the underwater elevator is always fun. Plus I love just beating the hell out of Truth.

  3. Halo, from Halo 3. Like Assault on The Control Room, this level has it all

 

So I've been playing through all the Arkham games lately, and I had an interesting thought about the whole Arkhamverse as a storyline.

I think the entire game series is based (loosely) on The Killing Joke story, with other major events, references, and storylines lifted from other Batman comics. I just think TKJ was used as a basis for the games' world.

We see Joker's beginning with his flashback at the end of Arkham Origins, which is almost identical to his TKJ origin, as well as him crippling Barbara in that flashback during Arkham Knight (right down to the clothes he's wearing). The overall dark tone of the games lend to this theory, as well as Joker being shown just how sadistic he can be.

What do you think?
