We’ve been “blessed” to live in a time when Boris, Trump, Maduro, Bukele, and even freaking Bolsonaro are in power -at the same time!-

They said, “copyright violation” not “trademark violation” so that can’t be it.

For the moment, yes. But it must be SO awkward to tell his very recent partner that he let Courtney drive against her explicit orders and got her seriously hurt, and forced her to cut off her important business trip. And on top of that, he knows that what he’s doing is even worse.

I had a massive problem with Layton putting the entire success of the revolution to rest on LJ. He knows how she is better than anyone. I know that compromises have to be made to win a revolution, but that’s just too much of a moral compromise.

This reveal really makes the Melanie character work for me. She wants to make social changes and has almost absolute power as the voice of Wilford, but she doesn’t change anything. That had never made sense to me. But it finally makes sense. She murdered the “savior of humanity” and was afraid for her life this whole

I’m guessing that the minds of all the drawered people mingle in there and can get swapped from person to person.

I have to confess that I would have to rewatch the first episode to even begin to remember who Pike was, or what he did, or what he was like at all. . ...which I’m pretty sure I will never do.

IKR! Pat was Starman’s sidekick during his entire career, from long before he first got his powers, to long after he died. I realize that he didn’t know that Courtney had changed into Stargirl, but someone with that much experience should know better than to go around shouting her secret identity, when a superhero

Some austenitic steel, maybe? Wilford was supposed to have gotten a lot of flack (before the freeze) for how much he over-engineered his train.

Something that troubles me is that consequences only happen when something as terrible as a death happens. The officers who kill a person of color can get into trouble. However, dozens of officers (optimistically only dozens) all across the country make black people’s life harder by questioning them and frisking them

Ted Grant’s was oddly puffy too.

but she still goes to every practice and stays for the entire thing

Honestly, the science fair project being “so sweet” was an intended pun, right?

Yeah, the threat of swapping classes is pretty brutal, but I’m just not seeing the clearly super immoral eugenics angle. Is it really eugenics if you have a limited number of pods and not everyone will fit in them? Sure, you’re deciding who lives and who doesn’t, and that’s horrible, but it’s different to run a

She could call herself Doctor’s Daughter Mid-Nite.

There were some heroes with questionable motives in the Arrowverse, but Ollie did not accept them, so they had to leave rather quickly, like Huntress. But that’s very Ollie! It’s in character.

She’s reckless and unreliable in a very different way from Courtney. And, just like with Courtney, that can be a good thing at times. But still, with those two and Delincuentman as her team, I see Yolanda suffering from hypertension before being even 20.

Yes. I’m still at the point where I think it all makes sense. It’s just that it makes sense inside the writers’ heads, based on all they know. They just haven’t bothered to let us in on what they know yet. By the end of the story, we will probably look back at these early episodes and realize that there was some logic

While the series as a whole doesn’t hold up, there is something really special about that first book. In my experience, when a six year old finishes that first Harry Potter book, they always end up crying because it’s the most beautiful thing they have ever experienced (in their long, grizzled lives XD) and begging

It’s exactly what you’d expect from someone who would throw a classmate off a building for testing her powers, or turn of the electricity in a hospital as a distraction XD
