It's the basic problem with equating special powers with social powerlessness.

And it also let the MCU do a story about a world with very few superpowered people, which you can't do if mutants exists.

They're so damn bad at the 'luring casual fans' part. So damn bad.

Yep. Which is why I also want it to fail badly, so Disney takes it away from him too.

I find it weird that the article fails to mention the Feige vs Perlmutter feud, which is the reason they're not going to give up on Inhumans.

WW has done really really really well, but seriously. Facts are facts.

And Penelo gets so very little development. :/

The Jar of Bees is brilliant and actually quite useful, yes.

About Vaan… one thing I liked about him and Penelo is that they also represent the people who had no agency, yet were affected by the plot. Ashe or Basch or Balthier had some impact on how they story went or at least a first row seat, while Penelo and Vaan lost their families to that conflict without really being…

I love those moments whe you realize that yes, her humour is actually pretty much Emily's. Isn't there a moment where EMily's friends go YOU'RE OUTRAGEOUS, JUST LIKE YOUR MOM?

Oh, yes, Rory definitely has a share of responsibility too. She's the youngest one and in that sense I give her more leeway (only when it comes to their family dynamics). She was put into a very tense position of, as you say, constantly mediating and then took advantage of that position as the innocent one. But Emily…

I think that, for me, the problem is that the few times Lorelai lowers the barrier and trusts them (letting them take Rory to Yale or the drop out thing), they… well, they bulldoze all her boundaries.

Yes, it's very very very hard to change dynamics in a family. And neither Lorelai nor Emily are at a place where they can recognize what they need to do to get a healthier dynamic.

The thing is… she tries her absolute best and still does things like interfere with Lorelai's relationship with Luke or override her when Rory drops out of college (which is Lorelai showing a lot of emotional maturity, being vulnerable to them, asking for their help and then being absolutely betrayed by them). She…

It totally was! I loved that somebody took the work to write that flavor text.

Oh, god, the upgrade interface. I mean, I found the interface in general to be bad, but I'm used to that.

I have the week off, so I've been playing a bunch of Mass Effect Andromeda. I'm. happy I didn't pay for it. I don't know what my real troubles are with it*, but I keep playing it without knowing if I'm actually having fun.

I also liked that the movie showed that 'being ourselves' is also connected to the history of our families and communities.

You know, saying this about a show that did an episode like Last Christmas - when the message is every Christmas can be your last! - or The Husbands of River Song - where the message is that yes, you're going to die so no happily ever after, but being happy for a while is great anyway - is kinda silly.

I… honestly have forgotten.
