I always end up watching Buffy, for some reason.

Pretty much all straight male writers in the 80's and 90's didn't write gay sex scenes, so.

He's an older guy who wrote these starting decades ago. I think he deserves kudos for putting the gay sex in the TV show, for updating himself, and not anger for not being prescient with regards to a revolution in attitude and acceptance that had yet to happen when he started these books.

Ah, yeah, I know this. But a standard, non-bodyweight specific atropine injector for use in the field by the military when someone is exposed to a chemical agent is not the same as a measured atropine injection used in an ER or medical setting.

Whoa sister, speak for yourself! I adore a nice sweet man and a strong and powerful woman. For different reasons, of course, but really, there's something for everyone out there.

I haven't been a fan of the Supernatural Angels & Demons storylines. I'm still a fan of the show, but... it's like they abandoned the premise and got religion, which is annoying. I'd still like to watch a show about people who hunt monsters, ya know?

In a sense, that vamp attack is as jarring as the entire rest of that episode. It's like a sudden reminder that while you've been living in a real-world episode, the supernatural is still out there in-show, and it's not something they can ignore. It was in many ways the most real of the fake bits - it shows them being…

Only movie that ever made me walk out after paying for the ticket and popcorn.

It was much better drunk with an equally drunk snarky friend.

In this day and age, given the socioeconomic group that were naming their children Mercedes in that timeframe (or at least the ones I knew), I sincerely doubt the lovely french name that the care is named after was on their minds. It's Nameception, though. The car was named after the character and the kids are named…

Subaru is a Japanese family name. Granted, these are probably not Japanese parents naming their kids this... But there's definitely precedent for naming your kids after cars. In the 80's we had an unfortunate rash of people named "Mercedes" and "Porche".

Pretty sure even at 6 years old I would have known that sabotaging the floor of the treehouse and letting Mom stand on it would have been a dumbass idea. Kids aren't idiots. Naieve, ignorant, yes - idiots, no.

I would watch this.

And by "best friend" we mean "someone with a shock collar to zap the politician when they start babbling nonsense".

Everything needs testing, man. Everything.

I'd thought that they figured this out a few years ago - increased pesticide loads + neonicitinoids + another stressor = dead bees. There was an article about a beekeeper and some Army scientist. They were getting samples from all over the place and putting dead bees (and healthy ones) in a blender and doing studies…

under the darkness

Yeah, but I'm almost 40 and I lived in places form suburbia to the city to the deep rural woods, and there were sneakers over power lines in my neighborhoods all the time as a kid. We never had drive-byes or any of that stuff. If it were about murder there were a *lot* more kids getting killed than the news was…

There's a fanfic for this somewhere.

What made you reject it? I tried fried silkworms (while slightly buzzed, mind you) on the beach in Korea - fresh fried and still hot in a paper cup, they were crunchy and tasted salty and a bit fishy. I wasn't convinced I was eating bugs, because of the fishy taste and the presence of the beach; they seemed more like…
