Is that anything like wall humping?

Also if bird flu blows up he'll again have the opportunity to not save millions from dying.

Judge Gregory Carro ordered him to remain handcuffed, calling it a security measure.

Oh yeah, any second now he'll pull out his ass gun he's been hiding for months in prison and go hog wild. This guy doesn't have a chance at a fair trial.

Hey, you don't know all the details of the deal. Maybe he gave her a lot of rope.

Shit's crazy these days. My favorite "they can do that now?!" is from a 2014 article where MIT researchers videoed a bag of potato chips in a soundproof room and used the vibrations from the bag to recreate the sound.

Castlevania has always had a pretty heavy emphasis on movement abilities to access new areas

The -vania part always seemed a bit odd to me as well because of the history of the games, but it makes sense based on when the term became popularized. If someone had tried to coin a term for the genre earlier I think it would've been Metroid-like alone, specifically because the early entries of Castlevania didn't really have any movement-based mechanics upgrades until SotN. Even things being locked behind item progression was only in Simon's Quest before that (although it looks like Vampire Killer had some more open levels where you had to find keys). I'm not familiar with Rondo of Blood, which looks like it had some exploration of levels with the secondary character, but again without upgrading movement mechanics.

So you basically had Metroid ('86) and Super Metroid ('94) being quintessential examples of the modern metroidvania genre, whereas there were almost a dozen Castlevanias before SotN ('97) that were mostly linear.

It's the opposite of face-eating leopards. "Surely making myself more appealing to racists and fanatics while empowering them won't eventually lead to any consequences for me!"

I don't mind the wide flat noodles like the pad thai ones or even really big like lasagna, but something about udon is a little too much. I eat it from time to time but I never really crave it-- much rather have ramen

Not just Russia's puppet. He'll let literally anyone stick their hand up his ass if they pay him.

I know idioms don't necessarily have to make sense, but how were you imagining getting down to a tax? Like it was at the bottom of a list of taxes or something?

Some dude invented a new pasta shape in the last few years called cascatelli (little waterfall)

NPR did a segment on it
