    D&D and the rising pandemic

    I haven't seen it official, but since the two-shot protocol was same-same, I'd expect the booster to be the same. If nothing else because each vendor tests it that way for sure. So Moderna+Moderna, then a Moderna booster. While it could be different than that, this seems the simplest.

    When Did Rome Fall?

    Rome fell at the earliest point that people debated it hadn't fallen. Because if a nation has such poor marketing that people think it's fallen, it has indeed.

    thanks! I thought I was going nuts when RL people I knew were saying 'go see it, it's on D+"

    I've gone looking for this movie twice on Disney+. Do I gotta have a special kind of subscription or something? Doesn't come up in search to even tell me to give them more money.

    D&D and the rising pandemic

    good point, though I think fear can be traced back in there. groups that practice shaming or shunning, are in effect using fear. You don't go against the group or you'll be out. That's scary. It's just as easy also to disguise fear as disgust. Ex. all those strongly homophobic ranters who...

    Fear. One group of people test high for it. it shows in their politics and the kind of things they support.

    need recommendations for character art tool for aphantasia artist

    Thanks for the tips and ideas so far. I knew ENworlders could think in and outside of the boxes. :) Poser looks like the closest to what I was thinking initially. Though its pricey ($249 not counting add-ons). there's also free program called MagicPoser that sounds similar. I think Unity...

    need recommendations for character art tool for aphantasia artist

    Now and then you learn something new about your favorite person. In this case, my wife learned about aphantasia and that she's got it. Basically, she can't visualize. Like imagine a room with a ball and a light over your right shoulder pointed at it, and see how the shadow falls. She can't do...

    D&D and the rising pandemic

    That's a pretty clear and classic definition, but a counter I'd seen to recent years is this: Terrorism is what rich men call a poor man's tactics. because rich men can afford armies and bombs, and poor men can't. And calling it terrorism lets them incite the people against the poor men. Now...

    Babylon 5... reboot?

    The Great Maker long tweeted about this. He went over all the options and why they wouldn't work. At some point, we have to put our faith in JMS. This is how he gets to work on Babylon 5 again. Maybe there would be no deal if it wasn't a do-over. But we also know he wouldn't settle for less...

    Babylon 5... reboot?

    I'd probably watch it, like I watch anything Trek. But I'm against the basic idea of doing the show over. I'd be fine with using CGI and stuff to clean up and fix the existing footage. reshoot all the space stuff, whatever. Digitially correct gaffs that made it on screen, and improve the...

    Star Wars: Visions

    We've seen the first 3 episodes. The Twins was a bit much. Can't say more as I'm not sure if we're clear for spoilers, and haven't seen the rest yet.

    What If...?

    Well that was silly. I wonder if the point of deviation wasn't Party Thor but actually Loki. By him not being adopted/abandoned, Thor didn't have a kid brother to contend with Also, this universe itself seems to be more partyverse than others.

    What If...?

    Now a second half with Shuri, Happy and Pepper could have explored those chars more, but as is, this was What If Killmonger Won? In which we see the villain, as is the trope, did not change. As his relationship with Tony grew, I would have hoped he might have seen a different path. He was...

    What If...?

    Except for the first two, all these episodes are dark and sad. It did end on a more hopeful note this time, Shuri probably CAN save the day.

    Hawkeye Trailer

    I've not read the comicbook Avengers in any era, but it makes sense to draw from the Ultimates stuff, that was largely where I'd heard all of the chars took their inspiration. As for family arguing, I expect we will have some conflict there. He's supposed to be with his family for x-mas and he...
