That is amusing indeed, and well-done.  What software are you using?

Murc, there are places where the police jsut bust in and start wrecking up the place and manhandling people who belong to political movements that the establishment deems dangerous.  That doesn't happen in America.  Whether it should, is a different question, but I think more reasonable people would agree that it…

The Equalists don't advocate genocide, because they arent killing anyone.

Someone should really make a Craiglist page for Gotham City.  One category could be Henching Services (Needed: 3-4 toughs to get revenge on TV family).  Skylight Repair would also be very popular.

I just realized that, when she came back to the island, Korra didnt get any guff from Tenzin about where she was.  To the contrary, he asked if she found her friend.  Tenzin knows he needs to use a light touch and give Korra some freedom.  I feel like, in any other show, there would have been some stupid "Ignore your…

Sure.  But, lots of people have the opportunity to cause mayhem.  It's not like the watertribe folks go out a tear shit up every time there's a full moon.  Bending was the means of effectuating their evil.  It didn't cause the evil.

Bending didn't cause the war, Sozin did.  (but bending helped)

I think his Equalist philosophy can be seen from a variety of angles.  I can imagine a fan of Rand seeing it as an expression of enforced mediocrity for the sake of equality.  But it also makes sense as a conservative movement advocating (or rather enforcing) conformity for the sake of security and one person's idea…

Like a lot of propaganda, there is just enough truth in what he says to convince someone who already wants to believe.

I really like the dark and foggy atmosphere of the episode.  It reminded me of spooky industrial-London, and added to the mystery and tension of plot.  Korra (the show) continues to be gorgeous, and it's great to see the animators play with different visual styles and environments (especially since they're mostly…

Mako tk er jerb!

Do you think it's enough to say "Listen, don't expect all your questions to be answered, or all loose ends to be tied up."?

No to you, natty.  The Avatar state gave him the means to win the battle.  At that point, Aang had the opportunity to win the war in a few ways.  One way was to stay in the Avatar state and kill Ozai.  But, that would have taken away his agency and compromised his morals.  it would have been extra cowardly because the…

I just got a family member into BSG.  He's raving about season 3 and how awesome it is.  He's really excited to learn more about the Cylons' Plan (they have one!).  Do I spoil it to manage his expectations, or do I just let him fly too close to the sun?

No snark. I can't wait to have kids and introduce them to Avatar.  "Pride is not the opposite of shame, but its source."  Bam.  Truth.  What ya got, Western religion?

I actually think its an Avalokitesvara (but that's a subset of Bodhisattva, so you're not wrong).

Like Nancy Grace's "Tot Mom" for Casey Anthony.  I cringed every time she said it.

Humblebrag!

Lactokinesis

I think this speaks to the progression of modern society from the rule of the powerful (might makes right), to the rule of the spiritual (God commands the right), to the rule of law (justice is right).  In older society, the strong rule for better or for worse.  Ultimately, for worse however, as the accumulation of…
