They can erase the coffee cup, but they can’t erase our memories. Yet.

Isn’t that what the last Harry Potter film did with Dumbledore? Wait, never mind. Harry was contemplating the possibility of his death in the final battle through a heart to heart talk with a loved one unreachable in normal spacetime in a metaphysical TRAIN station. This is all those things but in a WAY station.…

In what world is ‘Tony Stark’s future daughter from a metaphysical way station’ not as interesting a character concept as ‘girl who shoots arrows real good’?

That’s kind of you to say, thanks.

Politics Corner - Good Riddance edition. I would like to take a moment to celebrate the banning of a lot of truly terrible people from Facebook. It’s a small but meaningful step. 95% of them are right wing hatemongers, because 95% of the hatemongers are right wing. The Charlottesville Neo Nazi rally wasn’t organized…

Where’s the spoilers tag, Hughes? Anybody remotely familiar with Pokémon knows that’s the look Psyduck gets when he’s about to explode someone’s skull, scanners style.

This guy is a huge douche and I hope no one buts his dumb book, but the play on promise us is kind of clever. Of course, Prometheus actually BROUGHT humanity fire, he didn't leave us stranded on an island with nothing but cheese sandwiches...

I’m not certain he’s driven by xenophobia, though it wouldn’t surprise me. General Kelly was supposed to be ‘respectable’ and he turned out to be almost as rabid as Miller. I think it’s also plausible that he really, really likes power and relevance. Nobody else was going to pull HW Bush’s AG out of mothballs and put…

Despite the unnecessarily harsh tone of your comment, I’ll give it a reasonable response. The reception to my post is generally pretty good, it’s easy to skip, and it’s a relic of a time when commenters did their own little league featurettes here on WOT. Others stopped when the site switched to kinja, but I’m still…

Politics Corner - Lowering the Barr edition. I want to start off by briefly reiterating the stakes of this. Future administrations will seek to use the Trump presidency as precedent to justify their own misdeeds. Every attorney general who tries to pretend Trump’s malfeasance is ok isn’t just helping Trump, they’re…

Agreed. They probably had a team of people working on this for months and the version some rando on the internet farted out in an hour is much better. Heh.

Why don’t they just rastify him by, say, 10% or so?

He’s around enough to be there to ban. As far as how prominent he is today, there are still people who listen to his bullshit. And even if he was just somebody’s bigoted great-grandpa shouting into the void, hatemongering is hatemongering. Enforce the terms of service and ban them all.

Hot Take Alert -

Politics Corner - In the wake of the most recent white supremacist terrorist attack against a synagogue fueled by alt-right online cesspools, some on the right have felt it relevant to slam Ilhan Omar’s months-oldccriticisms of Israeli policy, which they suggest is relevant. It’s the flip side of Trump’s ‘many fine…

“Sam’s point-of-view is used for the first of the gang to die, Delorous Edd, for example.”

Politics Corner - What’s Not on Tonight - Coverage of the Family Separation Crisis edition. Acting head of DHS and enormous asshole Kevin McAleenan told 60 Minutes that the family separation policy was ‘effective’ but had to be ended because of the public reaction and in a way, he’s right. Jim Crow laws were effective…

I saw this last night. For anyone interested, here are my thoughts.

The notion Ka Mai is responding to is that Jag claims to be sad other people enjoy Avengers. So, Ka Mai is doing the OPPOSITE of criticizing somebody for not having the same opinion as them.

Everybody’s complaining about how CGI Rugrats in a live action world. But your concerns are misplaced. Yes, THAT would be off-putting, but the CGI is only for creating the models. They won’t be traditional CGI at all, they’re live action. Advances in 3d bioprinting have allowed Nickelodeon’s top scientists to…
