There are different tiers of legendaries. Landorus, Cresselia, and the likes of Heatran are rare, and technically legendary, but for various reasons are not in the same tier as Mewtwo, Darkrai, Xerneas. It sucks, because I have a box full where I never really use them, because you can’t take them into the Battle Tower…

It’s really scary to think that in the distant future, assuming we don’t make it, another highly intelligent species might arise and look onto the stars because we cause of this fundamental feature of the universe never know that many billions of other galaxies exists.

My impression is that the war in X/Y took place much earlier in the world’s history, and that Lt. Surge fought in a much more recent war. Like the X/Y was the War of the Roses and Lt. Surge fought in Vietnam or something.

There is no reason to assume that the player didn’t go to school. Most of the NPCs we see in school are younger than the player. Additionally, most of the young NPC characters are found nearby other towns and cities, which in the real world wouldn’t be too surprising. Within the universe, where is there is a large…

Well, the anime doesn’t really have the same problem. We have seen the parents and siblings of multiple main characters (Brock, Gary, Misty, May and Brendan, Paul, Sabrina, one of the sidekicks from Gen V, Clemont, etc.), and we know the world is full of people that do not engage in Pokemon battles. So the problem is…

There are movie theaters and even live theaters where broadway like shows are produced. There are contest halls, theme parks, museums, multiple art galleries, sport stadiums, TV stations, radio stations, libraries, cafes, restaurants, clothing stores, there are zoos, aquariums, safaris. There are even shopping malls.…

We know for a fact that there have been several wars within the Pokemon Universe. There is the war Lt. Surge mentions but in the recent games they speak of a more ancient war as well. And there are many Dex entries related to war.

I would push back on this assumption. I think we could probably chart this all and settle this. My sense is that if we were to create a simple chart with femininity one side and masculinity on the other and plot individuals or their stated beliefs on either side based on how extreme it is more so associated with one…

Okay, for starters just because two species having identical copies of genetic information does not mean that it is functionally the same, as how a gene activates and what it does is dependent on other genes. So two species might have the same gene but it expresses differently. In any case, it is not that mice are…

I’m not denying that it is our nature to categorize things, what I am challenging is the assumption that it categorization based on sex and gender is something we have to do. People do not have to look androgynous for us not to need to use sex and gender specific pronouns. I mean, just try not using them for a while…

Yes, men and women are different, though it should be noted that they are much more the same than they are different. In any case none of this really has much to do with how we have gendered our society. I mean, when you get down to it why do we have sex specific pronouns in the first place, when a neutral would work…

I mean, if she is allowed to do that could a racist court clerk refuse to issue licenses to interracial couples? Could a Christian, Science nurse refuse to give a child a booster shot at a public hospital? I mean, exactly do you draw the line? That’s the question I would Christian religious fundamentalist to explain,…

Amanda Waller is one of my favorite characters in comics. She has generally good intentions, which is to protect humanity, more specifically the United States, but subscribes to the theory that the ends justify the means and that some people are expendable in an effort to ensure the goal. The idea of the Suicide Squad…

Wait, a second, Transformers have sexes?! Does that mean they sexually reproduce? What the hell is going on! I thought Transformers just mimicked voices when they took form on Earth.

I’m a premium Spotify user too and I’m seriously considering the change. The test will be whether or not the entire catalog remains there. iTunes typically has artists that are not available on Spotify, and the issue will be whether or not their catalogs remains on iTunes or if it gets pulled. It’s certainly going to…

Where the manga is right now is doing a fairly good job of providing context, albeit very convoluted, to the whole situation, and explaining some of the gaping pragmatic and practical holes in the series’s universe.

Men and their toys.

Male sexuality in our society is weird. There is this presumption of exclusive heteronormative behavior among straight men, with heterosexual women being more fluid; however, there’s no reason to assume that would biologically be the case, and a lot in fact to suggest otherwise. I agree with many of the other posters…

I can get behind consenual analingus, but the way it is depicted here is just weird. He doesn’t seem to be enjoying it, and is just having it done on him as a way of demeaning and mocking the prostitute, which is pretty terrible. Like it obvious that he is trying to project the implication that she is of so little…

Thank you. I live in DC and I can’t stand the metro appearances. It’s so depressing and I have no idea why they thought living like a cave dweller was going to appealing. I think people who find it appealing never have to experience, and get to enjoy the aesthetics from their well lit, well, anywhere else.
