But plus side, I did get to see them take the RE Lee statue out of Lee Circle and give it back its Tivoli Circle name before I left.

I lived in New Orleans post-Katrina and there was STILL a monument to the fucking white supremacists who rioted to stop Reconstruction in 1866.

We absolutely should elevate the standards to which we hold the Democratic Party, but fielding this sort of "both sides" bullshit in an election year when democracy itself is on the line is shameful.

The plus side is the positive response to LD persuaded Paramount to green-light a live-action Trek comedy with Tawny Newsome (hopefully still as Mariner).

#26: This is why Drew Carey wore those ugly-ass Marine Corps glasses for all of his early jobs. He'd wear regular frames in public and never get recognized.

Futurism was an interwar style in Italy whose members were uncomfortably fond of Mussolini, so you are scary close. Good job!

Not really. My hope was that the Breen architecture was inspired by Sant'Elia, but he said no. Did me the honor of looking up Sant'Elia and confirming the similarities, though.

When I was in college I actually got Peter Chung to answer some of my questions about the architecture in this.

I love this fact so much I yearn for sauce so I can share it around w/evidence. Any help would be appreciated.

I love these Owl House fan strips, but I lost the thread on the heavily-plotted ones. So I really appreciate a one-off joke!

I said it before and I'll say it again: This is the EXACT reason I'm an *ex*-architect.

Only if they're authentic gholas from Tleilax; otherwise they're just sparkling swordmasters.

"Valiant orphan saves lives of other orphans by jamming gears of orphan-crushing machine with his body." Yet we've still got a damn orphan-crushing machine.

You are not alone. I'd shotgun that whole box of Good & Plenty before I'd touch one of those mushy monstrosities.

Source is I read the fucking book: "Hunter: The Strange and Savage Life of Hunter S. Thompson"

Trump is garbage, but Carroll is *weird*. She wrote a biography of Hunter Thompson that included a fictional scene of him raping her.

There is no amount of right you can be that some motherfucker won't try to be righter than you, particularly on the internet.

Dr. Doom is not a doctor. He gets murder-y when this comes up. Polaris doesn't use the title but she loves mentioning she has a doctorate.

Andor set my Star Wars expectations impossibly high. I tried watching Tales of the Jedi and I was like "oh ... oh no. I can't go back."

#6: White Rabbit is awesome. She's like Harley Quinn without any Mary Sue powers; she's useless and hapless and I love her.
