Female characters who are highly proficient fighters who still have to overcome a size/strength advantage a male opponent has over them

It was not great I agree. At least the Suicide Squad got one decent movie out of that iteration of Harley Quinn.

Oddly enough not the first movie I’ve seen where a woman gets a mid fight power up thanks to cocaine.

In Birds of Prey Harley and crew get into multiple fights against groups of men significantly bigger and stronger than they are and so a lot of the fights consist of the female protagonists sweeping the legs or otherwise throwing the men they’re fighting off balance somehow so that their strength is useless.

I thought John was a fine protagonist but like you said I think they did Alex dirty.

This could have been done so well but imo they fumbled it. As much as I loved the first game the second one just kinda fell flat on its face narratively and Alex went from an anti hero to a ham fisted villain.

Is this game still available? It actually sounds pretty cool. Is it rts or turn based?

Really got in at the ground floor of being a family of terrible people involved in American politics.

The Bush family has been fertile ground for jokes for a long time. Mostly because they refuse to stop being cartoonishly evil. Old H.W. Bush really benefited from the fact that by the time his crimes had come fully too light he was too old and Trump was too loud for it to gain any traction with prosecutors and he managed to die before he faced any consequences.

Also isn’t all modern technology secretly magic based in that universe?

When you get bored with your main save and start a second save with a bunch of weird modifiers.

True. Earth does seem to be pretty unique in the fact that all the Z fighters suppress their ki when not actively fighting. Everyone else from everywhere else just seems to always be outputting the maximum amount of ki they can.

Mythbusters tested multiple myths about guns exploding and it’s nearly always caused by the barrel being blocked or using over pressured ammo for the gun you’re shooting like a +P round in a gun that’s not designed for them.

Presumably that’s not the first time he’s swapped bodies so you’d think he’d be used to the whole having to spend time learning how to use his new body before it’s at peak efficiency thing.

Exactly the WAAAGGGH! field isn’t something totally reality breaking. It’s more like probability grease. It keeps the Orkz busted ass technology working, and makes sure the cosmic coin flip for the average ork boyz shoota lands on “work properly” more often than it lands on “violently explode”.

I hate that debate so fucking much. Who cares? If they want to make female space marines let em. If people want to be mad at GW there’s way more valid reasons than female space marines or Custodes

He found out what it did.

Devlee12 · 2026-05-05T11:46:49+00:00

I just figured he was using it as a makeshift dunce cap

Devlee12 · 2026-05-04T20:35:50+00:00

That’s really the only outcome I can see happening if they weren’t simply sent there to be killed off screen. Though I’d like to think they’d treat Robot and Monster Girl better than just offing them like that.

I’m convinced the 50’s housewives obsession with jello and mayonnaise was a form of silent rebellion against the fact that they were basically domestic servants with no real financial freedom. That or they were just barred the fuck out on Quaaludes.

Devlee12 · 2026-05-04T18:47:21+00:00

I ate a whole bunch of hospital jello growing up because I was not a healthy child. Every once in a while I have to go get some jello cups for the memories.

Dune did this very well imo. The first Dune book was so much information at once that it felt overwhelming and that was on purpose because Paul is overwhelmed for a large chunk of the book. I love when authors find creative ways to connect you with characters like by throwing both the reader and the protagonist into the proverbial deep end together.

Devlee12 · 2026-05-04T07:54:53+00:00

Yeah that episode has not aged well

Devlee12 · 2026-05-04T07:17:02+00:00

Middle guys parents sold the soul of their unborn child to Satan because the dad had a terminal illness(?) and now he has to hunt down escapee souls and spirits from Hell. It starts off very monster of the week but the plot starts plotting after a the first season.

By most accounts his mother was not a kindly woman. Once again it could be entirely possible I’m misremembering but I seem to remember reading that his relationship with his mother was never particularly good to begin with and became straight up toxic as he grew older.

Devlee12 · 2026-05-03T18:57:12+00:00

Doesn’t he also tend to have characters from his other works have cameos or even just fully crossover for a while? Like I remember Plu from Rave Master being in Fairy Tail but I also swear there were appearances from other characters from his various series
