PAX recently canceled a panel featuring Chris Ray Gun and Colin Moriarty of Sacred Symbols. Sacred Symbols is a video game podcast centered on PlayStation, and Sacred Symbols fans had already purchased tickets, and in many cases airfare and hotel rooms. With no reason given, and the panel already having been approved by PAX, with PAX even urging Chris and Colin to promote the panel immediately, this all seems quite bizarre. This is yet another unacceptable instance of the gaming/entertainment industry censoring those who fall outside of their echo-chamber, and continues the trend of silencing, othering, and increasing intolerance.

I have seen a trend going on for a while now where things just never seem to be good enough, and no matter how popular or beloved something seems, specifically a movie or game, there is a never ending stream of people who feel the need to pick things apart, complain about them, and in some cases even watch a show for multiple seasons despite saying it "died" years before.

I just purchased Marvel Ultimate Alliance 3 for the Nintendo Switch, have played it for a few hours, and I am really enjoying my time with it despite some gameplay confusion.

I just spent the last few days out in nature, disconnected from the internet, latest news, entertainment, etc. and it was a really freeing and great time.

While discussing Re. Ilhan Omar, the crowd at a recent Trump rally started chanting "send her back." This is unacceptable, offensive, and opposed to Trump's recent tweets stating that people who hate America can leave, I hate it.

I am tired of the anti-American messaging come from our own politicians, who love to paint America WRONGLY as a place so bad you'd think you couldn't walk down the street. Although I don't think it was necessarily a good move for Trump to tweet, and it could have been worded better, I agree with him. If you hate America so much, LEAVE!

Yet again, the topic of professional athlete pay disparity is making the rounds, but the stories and social media white-knights always seem to forget one key detail: revenue.

Disney recently announced the casting of a non-white actress for the lead role of Ariel in an upcoming live-action Little Mermaid movie. I personally don't think it's a big deal, and think most people don't really care either.
