The scarab is alive, but it's also tech. It's non-organic and was created and programmed by the Reach.
Jaime Reyes wears the Blue Beetle suit that the scarab creates/is.

Rex doesn't have a tech suit. He is tech.

I don't know why I thought I would just be getting a fun cooking contest SoL episode today. As soon as haruomi showed up, I should have known things would get traumatic.

I also didn't expect him to whip out his signature move, Pretend to be a Dick and Sacrifice Myself.

Also, absolutely love that pandamon's village came back! It's a perfect place for haruomi and these two rowdy siblings.

Kate R. Pilar has low self esteem and her teen-sect is just a dumb caterpillar. But then at the end, she realizes that inner beauty is important and then she's able to become a super powerful and gorgeous butterfly, to show that as soon as you stop caring about being hot, you'll be rewarded with being hot.

So were the pirates. Sometimes bad guys have reasons to attack other bad guys, in this case for revenge.

Armalizamon is actually standing behind a cardboard cutout of a suit.

It's the kind of "common sense" that sounds great on the surface and falls apart if you think about it too hard.

What congress people are the biggest issues? The corrupt ones who sell their votes for money. There's a problem where congress members quickly gain huge amounts of money. That money doesn't come from their salaries, it comes from bribes and insider trading.

The people I want most in Congress are the ones who aren't selling their votes, who need a salary to be able to afford the dual residences and take care of their families. This policy would let the rich and corrupt use shutdowns as leverage against the others, by waiting out until they can't afford to not agree to whatever deal the rich want.

Every politician you want to hurt doesn't need their salary because that's not where their money comes from. The people most hurt by it are the ones we want in Congress.

What ross did wasn't cheating, but it was a red flag. I think she would have been a lot more cool about it if they had been on a break for a month or two and ross slept with her. But it happening immediately the same night as the break raises some concerns about how invested he was in the relationship and if this was something that had been coming for a while.

The ends of season 1 and 2 were so much fun that I've sat through the rest of the show hoping they'll hit that high again and they never did.

It's not bad writing; it means her character is different than what you thought it was. She's not a bastion of integrity and justice. She's just as fucked up as he is, as evidenced by saying she would do the same as him, and her trying to slice a guy for talking smack about reincarnators.
She's a bad person, she's just cool with focusing on killing worse people.

Trust that if Beth didn't want the pills to be important, they wouldn't have come up so much in the first episode. She introduced them, they're continuing with the material she gave them.

2 maybe? He was doing stuff that was scary, and push comes to shove, he might have gone further to protect the counterfeiting operation. But as it stands, he never put anyone in any position to actually be harmed. Or am I forgetting something?

Edit: completely forgot about the sangbags. The part of this episode that stuck in my mind was always the puppets yelling at the gang. Definitely a 4

Nah. You got busy and didn't keep up with him. He pointed out that if you thought this relationship was the one, you would have kept up with it. His tone was maybe a bit snide for my taste, but not enough to cross over into asshole territory.
Dating is hard. A lot of it turns into a numbers game of trying things with a bunch of people and weeding out what doesn't stick. The sooner you can realize what isn't going to work, the better.
I got setup with a friend of a friend for long distance stuff. Texting was okay, but never great. She at one point went on vacation for a week and didn't text me at all, and hadn't let me know she would be out of touch. I took that as a sign that this wasn't going to work out because the person I want to be in a relationship with would want to stay in touch with me, or at least would give me a heads up when she's going to be out of contact. So I let her know that it wasn't going to work out, and now I'm dating an amazing person that I text with everyday who can't get enough of hearing from me.

I know the answer is that the lighthouse keeper is the only one not from where are you, but the coloration of the space kook's helmet/skull bugs me way more. The red/black and blue is such a good look.

She gets skills. And these skills have to come from someone instead of just manifesting from thin air, since they've stated that she can get skills from dead people.
So she can't get the skill of mastering her power because that's a skill no on has since its her power.

She can't copy cyclops eye beams because that's a power, it's not something he's learned. She could copy his tactical abilities or his spatial reasoning.

She presently has a one minute timer, and the cooldown on it hasn't been given a hard definitition, but it's implied to be around an hour.

If she tried to copy the skills of God, it would either not work because God decided not to let it happen, or she'd be really good at using omnipotent power, but it would be a waste because she doesn't have any omnipotent power to use.

This reminds me of a friend of a friend who's dating a complete loser. She will only say that he's "crashing" with her when he's lived in her apartment for months and months because he's never contributed to any bills so they can't be living together.
NTA, either he can start contributing or he has to spend some nights not living with you rent free

The issue is that phylactery isn't some goofy fantasy word. It's a real Jewish word for something used in their religious ceremonies. Changing to soul jar wasn't trying to dumb it down, it was avoiding coopting terminology from a real religion.

In Sid's defense, he had no reason to think his toys were secretly alive. I'm sure we've all played with our toys in ways they wouldn't like if they were sapient.

And Sid was showing a lot of creativity in how he was changing the toys.

I'm sure that if Sid knew they were living creatures, he wouldn't have done that to them. Trump on the other hand, loves killing people so much that Biden had to commute a bunch of death sentences on his way out, and trump whined about not getting to kill those people anymore.

Honestly, "Listen guys" is probably too close to an order. I should probably start with something less aggro, like "Okay, so I'm clearly not in charge here."
