dude I recently had an MRI done at this fancy imaging clinic that had all sorts of nice bells and whistles and the tech put on spotify for me to listen to to help stave off the anxiety attack.... even they didn't spring for premium XD in that case though it actually relaxed me a teeny bit because i found it funny that a place that boasted top tech didn't use premium

They never said it wouldn't still be like that so I don't know why so many people in general seem shocked at this. I'm cool with getting Disk 1 now instead of the whole thing 15 years from now. It's not like we don't know what happens. If they think they're going to charge full price for each one though that will be... not good. This would be the company to try it though. Obligatory:

... you know that's pretty much a summary of exactly how a depressive brain works, right?

Clearly Steve Rogers doesn't suffer from depression? I don't really know what you're looking for here. The established him pretty early on as the kind of person who could have the whole world against him and he will never give up and never stop fighting. He'll always get back up and keep going no matter how bleak shit is and will help everyone he can along the way. Even his contentions with Tony stem from that drive. He was not willing to compromise his beliefs for anything, and would rather die fighting for all that he is than sacrifice even one part of it. Some people just don't break. At least not outwardly or in any quantifiable way that matters for this discussion. I don't know where the insistence on comparing Thor with him is coming from either. A better comparison for Thor would probably be Stark overall. Both in terms of their early lives, parts of their personalities and the kinds of shit they've had to deal with.

Amusing and true.

Well most games and systems require either parental authorization to use a credit card (by putting in your password) or I mean...your parent has to put the credit card in there in the first place. If your kid is playing Fortnight, why on earth would you EVER do that? Like, I guess I don't see how your kid is going to get into this shit without your money? Maybe gift cards? I don't see that as a huge problem except like telling your family members not to buy your kid those gift cards. I dunno, I think a lot of this comes down to parents not paying attention to what their kids are doing sometimes. Like they kind of know what they're doing but not really. I don't want to sound judgemental, but I guess I'm just saying it's not like they're coming and magically acquiring your credit card number and stuff. I genuinely don't know how a kid gets into this outside of parents not interested/paying attention. Maybe I'm missing something?

Got the call today. I got the lead position

I. Hate. Hollywood.

He goes over it in the video but I don't think Thor's sadness at failing so many times really hit this guy as much as it should have. He failed to protect Asgard from Hela/Surtur, the people he DID save died with Thanos in the beginning of Infinity War, and then he failed YET AGAIN to kill Thanos and bring his people back. Pretty much everything that happened to Thor since The Dark World has been him failing in one way or another. He was sullen in the beginning of Endgame, and when he finally was able to kill Thanos, it just wasn't worth it, at least not enough to bring his confidence back. He'd been dealing with that pain for so long, when Thanos was gone and there weren't any more major battles to fight, he did what most people probably would in that situation and let himself go. I think it's pretty well done, myself. Sure it would've been nice to see Thor be a bad ass again, but I think it makes total sense for him to be acting the way he was.
