I feel at least a little bit doubtful that his DMs will be useful, because I don't believe he is usually actually at the helm of his twitter account.

Yeah. Strange doesn't feel like what I had in mind, but he's a pretty good fit for how I described it.

I don't think Red Tornado or Vision ever had another life and Dr Manhatten...maybe?

I didn't mean clothing. I meant someone who just abandons "civilian" life. Has no job and no attachments except superhero life.

The Tick and Arthur could be examples, but they are played for laughs. Black Widow perhaps? I'd be really interested in a story about a meta who just disappears or fakes their death and, with the help of Batman or SHIELD or the like, just doesn't have a secret identity. They just fight bad...

This is a side chat. The topic is bettering yourself.

I am not Catholic and it stands to reason that I don't think they are right. I don't want to be unfair to them. But I read the Bible and don't believe they interpret it correctly on many points. I also think Martin Luther was wrong about a lot of things, but we do owe him a debt of gratitude...

Catholic teaching is that when Jesus renamed Simon as Peter and said "on this rock I build my church", he was naming Peter as the leader of the church and that all the history of Popes have been a direct continuation and so they are the original Christian Church. Outside of Catholic tradition...

If it were my courtroom, I would call him in and ask him to explain that Truth. "Are you telling me you will be violent? No? I just need you to explain exactly who is going after you and how you will come after them. Because you are out on bail on my okay."

So maybe he was just joking? I don't remember seeing anything at all to substantiate the line.

I am a little fuzzy on it now because I never rewatched any so far, but remember when we saw in a trailer that Worf was a pacifist now and we wondered how that could work? I don't really remember when he delivers that line in the series, but I know we'd already seen him slice up a Vulcan...

I think he can make running mean that he's realized the witch hunt will succeed and he can't keep fighting for America from prison, so he'll have to do it in Russia.

My wife and I weren't sure of a fact in a discussion last night. When he goes to trial, he has to go to court all day every day, right? What about when the jury is deliberating? If they deliberate for a week how free is he? I feel doubtful about allowing someone who may be remanded to prison...

I never quite got or got used to the concept of FTL in Moore's Battlestar Galactica (maybe copied from the original. I don't know). The F has to stand for "Faster", but they don't seem to go at a speed. Doesn't the ship just teleport? It is like a limited range spore drive that doesn't...

It is a sad day for America and it was sad to drive through Washington DC and see all the filth and the broken buildings and graffiti that weren't the Washington DC he left. I mean...did it happen during your riot?

What is the point in even making up new release dates when you don't know when you can get back to work?

I am very likely the last to know, but I was just thinking while doing my work at work and something occurred to me. Captain Shaw's death read to me as a pretty standard, "No, I'm going to be a hero and cover your escape" thing and it was that. But it was also a neat callback. At Wolf 359 he...

We roughly manage that. I live in the middle of the triangle made by OKC, Tulsa, and Wichita and they don't all get the same shows. But they all just get about half a dozen each a year and we can select what we want.

There is something to that for sure. I have seen Matilda the Musical live because it came once ever to a place 100 miles from me and the scheduling worked. Then they put a cinematic version of Matilda the Musical on Netflix and really it takes every advantage of a staged musical and adds the...

There may be a common courtesy of aligning when approaching, though I would tend to break that if I were approaching a hostile and had a better defensive angle. In the classic scene we see of a Starfleet ship orbiting a planet, I'm not sure what the distance is and what the gravity is. If it...
