I quit Twitter two years ago when Elon was just getting started and honestly I honestly I am not sure I am going to want to join another site. I suppose the one thing that may get me is that scrolling Facebook is a complete dumpster fire and at least with BlueSky or something it would be people...

As for a specific technologies cookies seems like a good suggestion. Social media less so, because, uh, this forum is social media? Would crippling cookies have the effect of crippling online advertising systems? Because I definitely think that if you could kill variable online ads that would be...

Without technology we will eventually be annihilated in a cataclysmic disaster. With technology we may be the cataclysmic disaster - but we might not!

That thief -> soldier -> leader exchange feels like it is foreshadowing Luthen's death. Because, like, the guy is not around by the time on Rogue One, right?

Russia is actually less than two Canadas or United Stateses. The United States is not that far behind Canada in landmass. It is just split up between the Lower 48 and Alaska. But yes, I suppose the phrasing was weird. I think there is a version of it that could have worked though.

Canada is also a very big country. But there is context here and I expect the same is true of Russia: most Canadians live within 100 km of the US border. I think most Russians live West of the Urals, while most of Russia is East of the Urals. By comparison, outside of Alaska, most of the US is a...

Looks awesome. Not particular a fan of Bob but I am interested to see what they do with him.

Yes, I am not sure how much sense this makes in the Star Wars universe. But the trailer certainly makes it look good.

Dude, you work for the House of Mouse now. Gotta be more careful than that. Obviously in Disney sorcerers wear hats.

Was Agatha redeemed though? To me it kind of seemed like the big reveal was that she was exactly as psychotic as Elanora made her out to be.

Once I remembered to watch I watched the last two episodes raptly. I literally watch the the end of the credits every episode to see if there are extras, though there never were. But after all is said and done I feel like I am missing something in the Agatha All Along show. Like... the point.

Guys... what if Agatha All Along is actually bad?

Probably? I think the big question for me is still what is meant by "the original Green Witch" . Like, if she is basically a cosmic entity then what is she doing slumming it as a mortal category at all? Though I am also a bit curious about whether there is some connection to Loki in that colour...

Some people were concerned that Patti LuPone could not be wasted. You were certainly right. Total badass. Also, Rio, jeez...

But what if it were aliens that turned into one hundred foot tall monkeys instead?

I have never watched Leverage but I definitely know what it is, just like I know who jonrog1 is, ; ) .

Sorry, that was a bit opaque. And you you what they say - in for a penny, in for a pound. Our "heroine" comes into a power called the Left Hand of Death, whose main effect is that she literally has the power to dissolve the flesh of living (and dead) creatures using her left hand. Her nemesis...

There would be a supervillain, but a lot of the action would probably be her dealing with the muscle, not the "villains" themselves. Red Ink would have a power or gift whose main effect she underutilizes but which gives her her name. And her nemesis would have a related power/gift from the same...

I am going to do something foolish and tell you about how during the last financial crisis I had an idea for a comic book character that never went anywhere because 1) I am not an artist; 2) I am not a comic book writer; and 3) I am a lazy procrastinator. The idea would, I think, only work if...

So I uncharacteristically forgot to watch last night because I was caught up playing Stellaris (I have had some sleepless nights lately!). But that was good, if a little slow. I definitely did not miss the black heart in the text message between Billy and Eddie though! I wonder whether if...
