Publishers don’t need to pay for good reviews. The implicit understanding is bad reviews = no early copies -> someone else post their review before you and THEY get the clicks.

27·1 天前Damn it feels good to be a gangsta
Obama’s probably just recognizing the way the wind is blowing and wanting to maintain influence over the Democrats. I guess I’m fine with it if he uses his fame to amplify people like Mamdani.
My goal is to be a skeleton that makes you scratch your head. Like, I’ll reinforce a ceiling fan in my house, then when the bombs are coming I’ll thread my limbs between the blades of the fan.
What the hell was that guy doing when he died?
7/7 is too “American showroom”, which is why 5/7 is a perfect score.
Plus it’s just the neighborly thing to do. They have to clean up the body, after all.

6·3 天前Instead of super poison, it inflicts frenzy, objectively the most annoying status they’ve ever done. Complete with buildup for a few more seconds after you’re no longer being exposed, and an expensive/rare cure item that you’re not sure if you need use to keep the status from proccing.

10·4 天前I get that they’re supposed to, I’m more curious if the seemingly smart and sensible people I know who happen to be Mormons sincerely believe that obvious conman was a prophet or if they just let it slide because they value the community and moral teachings.

20·4 天前I have a few Mormon friends, but I can’t think of a tactful way to ask them if they actually believe Joseph Smith was really a prophet.
Now it’s embarrassment mixed with anger.

5·4 天前Lake of Rot but with sections with DS1/2 style submerged, barely visible cliffs.
That’s why I don’t use tires. Raw dog the road.

8·4 天前When you ask Miyazaki to remove a poison swamp, he keeps it and adds a platforming section.
Sure, that’s possible, but there’s no evidence in the show that they did that.
Yes and no. Vought made a terrorist supervillain for the reasons you described, yes, but they couldn’t control what kinds of powers he’d get. The ones who decided he’d blow himself up were the show writers.
I sure wish I were successful and well adjusted!
Someone should photoshop the murderer guy in the background of that shot.
If he calls it a knob, he’s not just British, he’s Bri’ish.
