    Anti-Semitism

    A fair number of people have similar questions regarding Ecclesiastes, the Song of Songs (for, ahem, reasons), and the Revelation to John (leaving aside its imagery, it's a completely different genre than all the correspondence that dominates the NT after Acts). Fred Clark, who runs the...

    Star Trek General Discussion

    It's funny you mention that.... One of the cardinal rules imposed on Pocket Books by both Richard Arnold's reign of error and subsequent administrations within Paramount was "Thou Shalt Not Contradict What Was Shown On Screen." But such was the audience reaction to "These Are the Voyages", that...

    Star Trek General Discussion

    I suppose we were expected to draw the parallel between the Coalition of Planets and the League of Nations (with the UFP being analogous to the UN which replaced it). Given the Coalition membership of both Beta Rigel and Coridan (that did not translate into instant UFP membership), however, it...

    Star Trek General Discussion

    ....and on August 19, Mars (Sol IV) joins the UFP, having sat out the original negotiations in order to assert their own independence from Earth. So I recall reading on Memory Beta, anyway. 🙂 A question that more recently occurred to me about the early Federation is the degree to which it...

    IDW's Having Problems Again-Layoffs and New Bosses

    It still seems strange, if only because, unlike Dreamwave (which had the niche high-fantasy Warlands and the just-getting-started cyberpunk-meets-Avenging-Bride Fate of the Blade as in-house lines when the bill came due), IDW had 30 Days of Night, which was a big multimedia franchise in the...

    The Ties That Bind: Connecting Non-G1 Stuff to G1

    Well, X-Brawn's Mighty Arm no doubt felt like a homage/repairing to the whole "bad shoulder" meme of the time. But as for RiD Magnus, Zobovor's fanfic "Second Chances" actually took an interesting track by having his behaviour in RiD-2001 be the culmination of a litany of perceived slights...

    The Ties That Bind: Connecting Non-G1 Stuff to G1

    I remember the late Neale Davidson claiming (before we got so much as the animated promos, when basically we knew of Mini-cons and that was it) that the series would be set in post-Rebirth Sunbow continuity and the primary villain would be Shockwave.... neither of which came to pass. The...

    "Welcome to the Literature Club! 💓"

    We can probably guess with Yuri (kind of leaning towards ). For Sayori, I'd be happy with just a sleeping face, but only 20% of DDLC fanworks (estimated) are about our happiness, so we might get I used a "like" reaction, but I wish I could give a "care" one à la The Book of Faces, because...

    So, it would appear that Nendoroids for Yuri and Sayori have reached the prototype phase. No words as yet as to accessories. (Still hoping for Mr. Cow)

    Superhero without secret identity?

    Yes, and unlike Silver Age Clark Kent of the Distinguished Competition (to use Stan Lee's term for then), it's not like Ben Grimm could just slap on a hat and glasses and avoid recognition....

    The Cheesecake Bakery

    I admit to being a little confused sometimes by Miley's presentations. On the one hand, her openings do seem very pre-K pitched with the facial expressions and puppet interactions -- and yet she also advertises nighttime bar tours and talks about her quest to find a "foreign prince" for one of...

    My particular favourite, though it was an atypical format, was Takeshi's Castle, which North American audiences may remember by its Gag Dub title of "Most Extreme Elimination Challenge".

    I'm sure that Rick Pope wished he could wipe his memory of that booking. 😄 "This is a talk show, right? This isn't one of those game shows where they hurt you if you don't answer the question?"
