Couple thoughts: As far as the swift sentencing to death, that's done in relation to terror caused by Grimwald. This appears to be, as a result, some poorly executed criticism of how the CIA treats terror suspects in an extra judicial matter.

It means she's a Moderator (or Forum Tyrant ;)) now.

You and me both. There seems to mostly be an attempt to define feminism as something that it is not and repudiating the straw-man of the "radical feminist". Outside of the comic @The Honor Spren posted, there isn't much in the way of feminism being discussed, from my perspective. Feminism does not deal solely in abstract equality. It is meant to address the specific inequality women face, the causes of which are different from inequality caused by, say, racism or different economical class. Which leads to another tangent: What does one mean by equality? Equality of pay has different solutions then equality of opportunity which is even different from equality of being secured in one's person or equality of expectations or equality of etc and so forth.

Texas Favorite type of drinking glass?

Eugene Onegin

They should also be banned from certain upscale restaurants. And if parents let there spawn run around in undesignated areas, they should be kicked out. I shouldn't have to constantly watch out for underfoot gremlins because people can't be bothered to be responsible.

@Quiver It was a good year for comics! If nothing else, new Blue Beetle, new Moon Knight...Dynamite did the Gold Key Alliance mini series and White Sand... Moon Girl and Devil Dinosaur is still around, Batman meets the Teenage mutant ninja turtles was pretty entering...

For Captain Marvel, there's Ultimates squared And Cyclops is never right I'm hoping Blue Beetle turns out all right.

Orlion here. For me, I was able to eat fun things again pretty quick after I got my wisdom teeth out (something like 24 hours)

Oooo, that's a tough one! For now, we'll say "Little, Big" by John Crowley. Favorite conifer?

Never-ending stoooorrry!

TechJesus is a manifestation of NetLord, and along with the Ghost in the Machine makes up the CompuTrinity.

His knees must be sore...from jumping to con-clu-sssiooons!

Or, of course you'll produce garbage. Art is not forming something ready made (that's manufacturing). Art is hard work and struggle to make something garbage into something less garbage.

Grilled cheese (yeah, I don't know either...)

@DSC01 Yes, we are pretty much in agreement, you just filled in some points I neglected to make

You are known for your secret, deadly ninja assassin skills. Well, you are now, anyway! I spilled the beans! Boop!

Edgedancer was precisely what I was expecting: an appetizer before the Oathbringer main course. It's too attached to it's franchise to be as good as Emperor's Soul. Not so deeply attached to the franchise to completely block out non rabid fans. (Say, like Mistborn: Secret History) There's some new information to ponder, and Lift got a couple out loud laughs out of me (No small feat under normal circumstances). Overall, a pleasantly enjoyable experience! Though I would not say it justifies the purchasing of the collection purely on its own.

Harry Potter fans have trouble with the proper interpretation of the series. Like when Dumbledore says to Snape, "After all this time?" Snape clearly and logically responds: I mean, it's the only thing that makes sense for his character development!

Nobody knows for sure...

The way I look at it, nihilism is a sort of technique whose main component is extreme skepticism.

David Bowie is my earworm antidote.
