I literally only just now realized that Bill Cypher's name comes from the "Eye of Providence" symbol on American money - he's the code on the dollar. The cypher on the bill. Did everyone else already know this and I'm just a big dummy?
Sorry but, yes
Since we now know that Alan Tudyk is playing a grumpy, grizzly motion-capture performance robot in "Star Wars: Rogue One", I'm really hoping he got to ad-lib "Love is not a malfunction" somewhere in his dialogue.
That would be amazing. :)
Bizarrely, this is something Jacques does better than Willis. Compare DOA-Carla to Claire. Carla has no depth of character except A) She's proudly, loudly trans, B) She likes annoying people. Aside from that, we know next to nothing about her. (1)
Claire, meanwhile, is a librarian, slightly nerdy, cares about her brother, wants to get piercings, and so much else - and we knew thus before it was established she was trans. There’s nothing wrong with having a character be proud of (2)their identity, and unapologetically vocal about it. But it’s bad storytelling when that’s where the character’s development ends. In fact, it’s almost detrimental to positive representation when all you’re doing is just aggressive representation.Hell, even Moffat understands that! He’s brought in gay, Muslim, PoC, disabled characters who actually have a stake in the story and a deeper history.Not to mention the “this is who I am, go fuck yourself” while the opponent silently, frustratedly frowns moment is a trope much more common in Chick tracts than most other media. e.
I have a homework assignment for you, and I want all of you to really try this.
Describe the following webcomics characters WITHOUT saying what they look like, their costume, and their profession/role. Describe this character as if talking to your friend who’s never read the comic. (If you don’t know the comic, you can skip). Only spend about a minute or two per character.

2. Miko Miyazaki (Order of the Stick)
3. Isabel Guerra (Paranatural)
4. Becky MacIntyre (Dumbing of Age)
6. Carla Rutten (Dumbing of Age)
7. Zimmy (Gunnerkrigg Court)
8. Ken (Shortpacked!)
9. Peggy Farrow (Legend of the Hare)
10. Jill Leverett (Legend of the Hare)
11. Kimiko Ross (Dark Science)
12. Bubbles (Skin-Horse)

Have you even seen the weird laws you get in the Bible, either testament? According to Jesus and his apostles, if you've ever been in church without a veil your family needs to shave your head in public.
Woah what? Really? I had never heard that . -.
Happy medium - let's lobby DreamWorks to make a sequel where Miguel, Tulio and Chel are in a flourishing poly relationship and swindling the creme de la creme of ancient civilisations out of all their cash.
sequel~
Any idea when the "Greatest Hits" show voting is going to end? I notice there's no prohibition against voting multiple times...
I don’t think it’s been announced when the poll would end, if anyone’s seen something I haven’t, let us know! :)
If we're tossing around recommendations, British shows Green Wing and Psychoville are pretty good. The former is a comedy about a hospital of eclectic personalities bouncing off one another, the latter is a black comedy about the former patients of an asylum being blackmailed for a shared crime. In both cases, Series 1 was great and after that, eh, not so much.
I think I saw an episode of psychoville once but it wasn’t engaging enough to keep watching. Was there a clown in it?
We can talk fanon and canon til the cows come home but I've still yet to hear a convincing explanation for why Flanders was at home and not in church when Homer's house started burning down.
He went and got out early. Notice how the rest of the family who was in church arrives at the house like 5 minutes later. Maybe Flanders just took a shortcut.
