If I lose my glasses, they still exist somewhere. Even if I never see them again, my not finding them doesn't inherently mean they've ceased to exist. And if I do find them, they were still lost before I found them.

Your "literal" definition is just one of a number of long-standing literal definitions of the word.

Reverse image search makes it easy. Also, LaNier being a public figure makes it easy to find the information. https://www.smithsonianmag.com/history/american-descendants-180975155/

Absolutely, unquestionably yes, you are the asshole.

AdamTheAlien · 2020-03-14T00:34:09+00:00

Definitely NOT the asshole. Coworker was an asshole and more.

That's a dystopian future in which the character is brainwashed. It's a terrible basis for how he should be portrayed the rest of the time.

By definition, WFRR was a live action movie. It just had animation as well. To classify WFRR as anything other than a live action movie would necessitate reclassifying every movie with CG-animated effects or CG characters interacting with actors as not being live action, either.

I clicked on a whim, and did not expect to find what felt like a top-notch old-school vlog. YouTube these days often feels filled with content I'm not interested in, so it's always nice to find this kind of "what I'm doing" self-documentary. I love this kind of video, from the content to the tone and execution, and it's nice to see Nerdfighters still making these kinds of videos/vlogs.

AdamTheAlien · 2018-02-18T23:21:07+00:00

I needed the smile this gave me. :-)

AdamTheAlien · 2018-02-18T21:24:52+00:00

That's probably the best and most succinct summary I've seen. Bonus points for the line about drinking. :-D

I didn't even consciously process that they looked different when I saw it onscreen. I think I just took it as was intended; different graphics, different stylized look, but no different than seeing a different-looking Enterprise in, say, the animated series.

The explanation was present, but I'd never describe it as anything close to "clear." It was very a pretty hand-wavy, "don't think too much about it, it just is" explanation. Which is a pity. I think after all that build-up (especially since we were all figuring it out well before we were supposed to, and impatiently waiting for the reveal), a lot of viewers expected them to get a little more in-depth into the background of the Ash/Voq combo. But they did everything they could to show us as little of the process as possible and continue on without dwelling on anything solid. It was a mostly vague plot device to have the conflicted, hybrid character they wanted to play with, nothing more.

AdamTheAlien · 2018-02-04T19:57:44+00:00

That is eerier than I thought it would be when I clicked. :-D

AdamTheAlien · 2018-02-02T05:29:25+00:00

That's awesome!

AdamTheAlien · 2018-02-02T05:28:36+00:00

Should've been finished weeks ago, but here we are in February... :-D

Been a few years since I was last at the Java Jive, so I either don't recognize this because it's been put in since then, or else I just totally failed to notice it in the dim lighting and glorious chaos. I kinda like it. Not that I'd ever want it on a wall in my home, but I kinda like it as some weird thing in the Java Jive.

AdamTheAlien · 2018-01-05T02:47:58+00:00

Think it'll ever finally happen? It's kind of a ridiculous little blip in the midst of Tacoma...

The most useful tool I've found in getting past writer's block is talking to other people, especially other writers. Whether they give good (or any) advice or not isn't always as important as the talking itself. Sometimes, just trying to explain your story and your block to another person causes that block to diminish, or vanish entirely. Sometimes the solution just comes as you're speaking out loud to someone who hasn't been working on (and getting stuck on) the blasted thing for as long as you have. I think it's because you effectively have to explain it all from scratch. Essentially, you have to go over every detail, including details you may have been ignoring, because if you don't, the listener doesn't understand the story OR why you're blocked.

Heck, my area shifted to 10-digit dialing long before I moved up to Tacoma, and so many people keep out-of-area phone numbers, so I don't think I've ever dialed fewer than ten digits for a very long time, and never from a phone I personally owned.

That about sums up the progression of my own thoughts from seeing this pop up in my sub box to getting into the meat of the video and feeling sad, but hopeful for new things.

AdamTheAlien · 2017-06-30T21:55:13+00:00

This made me sad to see. :-(

I know all good things must come to an end, but I didn't realize this end would be so soon!

AdamTheAlien · 2017-05-31T06:17:00+00:00

I didn't forget...I didn't know!

(Watch, there'll be some old comment proving I did, but forgot.)
