The TV and Streaming Thread: Now up for syndication...
Amentep replied to Amentep's topic in Way Off-Topic
TNG "Liasons" Trek does Misery. And what the hell happened to Starfleet's diplomats? It doesn't make sense how much diplomatic work the Enterprise crew does. Lower Decks "Terminal Provocations" amusing episode. I'm sure that we'll see Badgy again. -
Got Leanan Sidhe through merged and High Pixie. Finished some side quests and picked up a few more. Whacked an abscess, I think I have two more in this area.

The All Things Political Topic - As a Bright Lord bears Beacons of flame.

I think the only way the GOP collapses is if a third party takes hold and is able to stake out an approach that results in their membership pulling heavily from the party. Because as long as people keep pouring money into the GOP party, there's nothing that's going to stop it (it may be rendered inept by party infighting, but only lack of money to operate would really do anything, as I see it). I may be misremembering, but I seem to recall that historically every collapse of a major US party has coincided with the rise of a new party that ends up replacing the former party (or an upstart party that gains major traction quickly then loses it a few election cycles later). -
If they had some Green Crabs, it'd be really in the spirit of Christmas, on that island.

Not that clever, I'm afraid. The full name is Hiroshi Jinkawa, a name pulled directly from the human characters in GODZILLA VS MEGALON. The character, played by Yutaka Hayashi, was the friend of Goro Ibuki, inventor of Jet Jaguar.

My understanding that was a pitch concept trailer. Cartoon Network has also filed for a trademark on Learning with Pibby: Apocalypse with the subsequent speculation being that Cartoon Network has decided to develop the series. -

I hate timers as well. They always make me panicky and then I rush through things being afraid that I'll fail, but then when I finish I always wonder what I missed by rushing through.

Paramount took the rights back as they plan to launch Paramount+ globally in 2022. https://deadline.com/2021/11/star-trek-discovery-netflix-deal-paramount-viacomcbs-1234875466/ -
Its a bit misleading comparing Amtrak (which owns only about 1,000 KM of the tracks it uses) with Switzerland (which has over 3,000 km of track) and then the amount of tracks in the US total (over 250,000 km). Scale for national train travel is a big problem, hence why Amtrak is mostly reliant on renting time on shipping company's tracks. The makes the biggest problem with Amtrak not that people wouldn't use it, but its not even a comparable option excepting in the NE US where commuting may be a 'short' time investment. I once looked at visiting someone in the southwest US (about a 4 hour plane trip) and to get there on Amtrak would be a 3 day trip with an overnight stop in Washington DC and then another in Chicago. That said, its not unfair to say that US people got led down the garden path in 1939 with respect to cars. Our city recently spent a lot of money to install a short trip street car after 60 years earlier tearing up their original street car lines in favor of cars-cars-cars.

I saw Leanan Sidhe, but haven't talked to her yet. Mostly ran around and recruited some demons and merge them.

Robert Emmet Odlum was the man's name. I don't know why these things omit people's names.

Traditionally, one of the things I've liked about the system as well is that status ailment actually can play a part in strategy. Most games status ailments have such a low chance of working that there is little point in trying. Edit - screenshot of my current crew:

I'm roughly at the same spot in SMT V. I'm not high enough to merge an Angel, though. I guess I shoulda whacked a few more demons. EDIT: Take it back, whacked a Mitama and by sheer luck killed it and boom, I'm level 10 so now Angel is a member of my party.

Last time I tried to watch WWE wrestling, all I saw was WWE wrestlers talking at one another for an interminable amount of time. I hear AEW has its moments, but that it also has its share of silly. -

Amentep replied to Amentep's topic in Way Off-Topic
I don't think that's the exact analogy that the prosecutors are making. I think their argument is that you can't create a dangerous situation and then also get to use deadly force claiming self defense. The clear version of what the Prosecution is arguing would be, Guy A punches Guy B in the face. Guy B isn't phased by the punch, and goes with a punch of his own to retaliate so Guy A then pulls a gun and shoots Guy B. I haven't kept up with the Rittenhouse case, so I can't say how much it does/doesn't apply, but I think its what the prosecutors are going for. -
