They said they were operating offline, so no cloud services. But it does feel like they should have backups of at least some of the work.

I think "obsolete" is just trash talk. They're competing technologies, and competing branches of the neolution evil conspiracy/corporation/whatever. "You're betamax" is even a bit of a telling comparison. Arguably a better technology.

I think it would be pretty funny if it turned out he was a medical doctor all along.

Have a terrible crisis of faith and conscience, spend half a year miserable on a Greek island somewhere staring at his foot. Come back to the states and spend the rest of his life and his considerable fortune tirelessly working for organizations that protect vulnerable women from men like him.

Good call on the "would I say it to their face" metric. Some dudes will, though, of course. Or shout it from a moving car, etc etc.

I'm still kinda bummed about Laurel but I'd like to think that at the very least his complicity in her death might give them the incentive to finally cut him off. Not that him killing Sara did, but anyhow. One holds out hope.

Blindly elevating family is a pet peeve of mine and yeah, it's the worst. Like, if your dad drugs and abducts you, tries to kill you, manipulates you into trying to kill other people, while incidentally helping attempt to destroy the world… surely any paternal consideration you might owe him is extinguished.…

I wouldn't call the neck snap particularly gentle (though I guess that's subjective).

It's probably wishful thinking on my part but I feel like they MUST be ready to at this point. Guh. Probably not, 6 more years of Malcolm Merlyn, maybe it'll just be him and Quentin Lance (who has proven unkillable) by season 12 of Arrow.

It's hard to be worse at that job than Vault-Tec, but Dhahrhkh appears to have managed it.

Okay, actually, I've got ten minutes to burn, I'll engage.

*eyes roll all the way backwards, out of head, down street, into dumpster*

This only makes me want it more, of course.

She and Gottwald were co-defendants in a civil action started by a former manager, if I recall, that among other things alleged that Gottwald had sexually assaulted her. Around 2011. She said in a deposition (so under oath but not in court) that this was untrue. That's not good for her now, obviously, but as others…

Barbados has a prime minister, not a president. Google suggests he's at least an okay dude though. Maybe a little old for Kesha but we're all adults, right? Not bad looking, at least as far as middle-aged politicians go, has a pretty cute smile. If she's into it I think it's a fine plan.

… I won't lie, if Kesha released a Nickelback cover in the style of Kenny G, I would listen to it at least once.

I think the idea is that a random internet person's opinion on a famous woman's weight (or, more generally, looks) is irrelevant to anything. But part of the MRA thing is for some reason being convinced that she should super care about his opinion.

I just mentally inserted dirty straw covering the floors everywhere, and assumed the interior walls were all wattle and daub, with only the exterior stone (no matter what it happened to look like).

I didn't totally buy the whole thing just because it's so transparently only to Cersei's advantage - she's good if the Tyrell army kills a bunch of sparrows and rescues Marg, she's good if they kill a bunch of sparrows and fail to rescue Marg, and she's probably good if they get massacred by the sparrows and Marge…

I think it's just not that sort of show, to be honest. It's not interested in worldbuilding, it's not interested in holding up a mirror to the human condition, and it's not interested in asking difficult emotional or moral questions. It's a show about a badass cop who punches monsters and has some funny monster…
