When Barry did his whole “Flashpoint” thing a few seasons ago, Earth-2's Harrison Wells came and paid a visit afterwards and called out the changes, indicating that the timeline changes were localized to the one universe. Whether or not they make that a hard and fast rule is just something we’ll have to wait and see…

I thought Miller explained himself pretty clearly in an earlier episode. He’s a tool. The protomolecule needed an investigator, so it brought out the one it had on file. That same exchange identified Holden as a tool as well, and elaborated on it here. He’s necessary because he actually, physically exists.

It varies quite a bit how “complete” the transformation is depicted as, but generally there is a superficial, but functional amount of alternate mode parts, and then you have the reconfigured robot parts underneath. The Beast Wars characters, for instance, had fully functional organ systems to a degree, though that’s…

I must be the only one who felt like the line of the episode was “Do you want Fuchs? Because this is how you get Fuchs!” (in German) ((Just slightly cut off at the end by Fuchs eating spikey death log AKA The Widowmaker)). THAT was a well-earned callback!

I have to assume this is a practice borrowed from Americans, adhered to because Canadians are as murky about how restaurant staff are paid as Americans are. I can’t say I understand the logic of compulsively paying an extra 20% to someone who is already being paid fairly for their work.

This is exactly what I’ve been theorizing they could (and should) do with it for a while now. I love the rest of the cast and characters. Roseanne herself was a walking time bomb and plus just seemed to have lost a lot of her acting chops.

The oceans freeze, the sun goes dark, the universe collapses into entropy... Hideaki Anno confirms a release date.

Even if I agreed with your premise (and I don’t), you’re putting aside the fact that it’s only one factor here. It’s not JUST that MS-13 (in this case) is getting referred to in such terms. It’s also that the opportunity is being taken to lump in whole categories of people as “MS-13" with little or no evidence. And…

It may not necessarily be racially coded in any specific way, but it’s definitely intended to dehumanize the people being referred to. Honestly, reading the collection of statements given, you’d think MS-13 had a herd of giant-sized honey badgers at their disposal or something.

People did flip out. But then 17 other outrageous things happened and it was forgotten. Hard to stay up in arms when there’s a new outrage every other day (or more often).

The answer, at least according to the people you are addressing, is because there are not enough guns. The apparent solution such people want to see is an armed prison. Hence the “too many doors” comments, for instance.

Don’t forget that Bezos owns the Washington Post, which keeps saying mean things about Trump.

The ones I find the most infuriating are the ones that give a low rating due to shipping issues. Arrived late, 1 star. Went to the wrong address, 1 star. Seller was rude when I asked a question, 1 star. That sort of thing. Not even remotely about the product.

This is true, it does paint Pearl’s devotion in a new light. I mean, I still see her as having a somewhat different relationship with Rose than the apparent typical Pearl relationship, but it still stems from a position of subservience. It also puts a slightly unsettling spin on her obsessive devotion to Steven.

I’ve come to the conclusion that he puts quotes around words like that so he can later claim that he meant something completely different or was misinformed, or otherwise not have to take responsibility for the statement. Just another method to spread doubt and confusion.

She’d been Rose for thousands of years. She’d roamed the Earth, done everything. Just the knowledge that she’d go on as Steven may have been all the excitement she needed. I’m certainly not saying it’s entirely rational, especially from a human perspective.

I don’t think it necessarily follows that she expected to be able to experience what Steven experienced. Just that she wanted the next big new thing, regardless of her previous existence.

That theory hinges on accepting that becoming Steven wasn’t itself a selfish exercise. That’s kind of the cornerstone of my entire viewpoint, so I can’t just dismiss it. In “Greg The Babysitter” we see her utter fascination with human children and how they grow into adults, her joy at the constant change. That really…

Nearly everything we previously knew about Rose was told to Steven by people who idolized her. Pearl, who loved her utterly and seems to have been literally unable to tell the full truth. Garnet, who never knew the truth but found open acceptance from her. Amethyst, who barely had any more context than Steven. And…

I would definitely agree, at least in the sense that Steven is definitely NOT Rose. He has genuine love for everyone. He is exactly what Rose wanted: something new that she could never be, ever changing.
