Kaymyth she/her Posted May 1, 2016 Posted May 1, 2016 That's the one I meant. Did not see it coming, loved it when it did. Thanks a lot, Kaymyth. I was going to take a break and rest my eyeballs, but now I have to finish the season tonight. Yes. Yes, you do.
TwiLyghtSansSparkles she/her Posted May 1, 2016 Posted May 1, 2016 Yes. Yes, you do. I'm halfway through part 1, but I took a sort-of break by testing a biscuit recipe, so that helped. :ph34:
Sunbird she/her Posted May 1, 2016 Posted May 1, 2016 I've watched all the seasons of Buffy and Angel, and I started liking Buffy less right about at the start of season 4. Although I will admit the first season or so of Angel was kinda mediocre, I really liked the last season. Speaking of which, I still need to find a way to read the rest of the graphic-novel continuation of the story...

And, from Twimom, this week's blog post: "Is Being Nice Really What Jesus Would Do?" Oh, Mom. 1
Mistrunner Posted May 2, 2016 Posted May 2, 2016 And, from Twimom, this week's blog post: "Is Being Nice Really What Jesus Would Do?" Oh, Mom. I... I don't even know what to say to this... Mildly terrified. Mildly terrified.
+Slowswift Posted May 2, 2016 Posted May 2, 2016 And, from Twimom, this week's blog post: "Is Being Nice Really What Jesus Would Do?" Oh, Mom. To be fair, there might be a time when He uses the "stern-but-kind" approach... wait, that still has "kind" in it. Nevermind.

To be fair, there might be a time when He uses the "stern-but-kind" approach... wait, that still has "kind" in it. Nevermind. The post was about loving "sinners" without correcting them. And while I get where she's coming from, it's been pointed out that Jesus only did the "go and sin no more" thing after he'd established a relationship with them. Or, in the case of the woman caught in adultery, risked his life to save theirs. And really, he reserved the brunt of his anger for religious leaders who promoted rules over love. So…yeah. Not sure why I keep reading that thing, but I'm not finding much to agree with. 2

Not that it's so much that he did things for the sake of being nice - the way he did things was the best way to achieve the desired result. It just happens that for the most part, that involved him being nice.
Mestiv he/him Posted May 2, 2016 Posted May 2, 2016 But, his dad, or himself in different person, or however this God in 3 forms work, didn't have a problem with drowning the whole world or nuking two cities... It seems like sending Jesus to Earth was a result of a change in hevenly PR department 2

Curious Anamaximder he/him Posted May 2, 2016 Posted May 2, 2016 Not going to touch that one. I know all these people are asking for a link to the blog, but I'll ask for the blog to disappear.
TwiLyghtSansSparkles she/her Posted May 2, 2016 Posted May 2, 2016 An early draft of JK Rowling's latest project surfaces! 2
Quiver he/him Posted May 2, 2016 Posted May 2, 2016 Actually, speaking of Rowling, you guys hear about how they are releasing the scripts for the Cursed Child and Fantastic Beasts stuff this year? 1
TwiLyghtSansSparkles she/her Posted May 2, 2016 Posted May 2, 2016 Actually, speaking of Rowling, you guys hear about how they are releasing the scripts for the Cursed Child and Fantastic Beasts stuff this year? I heard about Cursed Child, but only about the movie for Fantastic Beasts. Not sure if I'll read/watch either one yet.
The Honor Spren she/her Posted May 2, 2016 Posted May 2, 2016 (edited) I know this was a few pages ago, I've been gone for waaay too long. My favorite songs from Hamilton are all of them, so I'll just include my favorite quotes. Dying is easy son, living is harder Awesome. Wow. *Sigh* everything is legal in New Jersey. Edited May 2, 2016 by The Honor Spren 1
Quiver he/him Posted May 2, 2016 Posted May 2, 2016 I'll definitely see Fantastic Beasts, out if brand loyalty as much as anything else... No chance of me seeing Cursed Child, though. No where around here does that sort of thing...

No where around here does that sort of thing... I'll wait and see it as a matinee, probably. I'm just worried, you know? I loved the original series, and if she's losing her touch, then I don't want to spoil my memories of the original.

Might give some indication as to how her her style has developed, changed or whatever.

Might give some indication as to how her her style has developed, changed or whatever. I didn't. I checked out some reviews, and gathered that it didn't sound like my cup of tea at all. Did you read it?
Quiver he/him Posted May 2, 2016 Posted May 2, 2016 Can't say that I have. A friend of mine did, and he...liked it? Though he stressed it was very, very different from the Potter books...
Delightful Posted May 2, 2016 Posted May 2, 2016 There's also her books under the pseudonym Robert Galbraith. So how much of a nerd does it make me that I'm kind of interested in Roman accounting? I might read the first page or two of that paper, at least. The Harry Potter version definitely sounds more fun though
