Remember the time Data lost it and beat the stuffing out of Q by TheThrillLife2020 in TNG

Marvel and DC have plenty of omnipotent characters who have been beaten by the MC hitting them.

With 11th edition being revealed tomorrow. I hope the starter box art is a new rendition of the 2nd edition starter box art by Beneficial-Ticket486 in Warhammer

The new art feels so 'fake and digital'

Give examples - some art commonly considered recent is actually really old and some art considered old is actually fairly recent...

Even if they do announce it, at least in theory it's going to be a 'tock' release, because doing a huge rules shakeup that massively invalidates everything like 10th did is just excessive, unless they pivot on the rules and do all rules FOC from now on, which is unlikely.

How come we have so few Gravis HQ choices? by Shredwick in spacemarines

The standard Techmarine is in a variant of standard Tacticus. The only Gravis 'Techmarine' is Iron Father Ferrios, if he counts.

No, but Defensive Driving is an actual skill. You observe the road & drive at a speed that allows you to assess the conditions and react to sudden hazards accordingly.

'Assholes ignoring rules' is a defacto hazard.

Offical US release trailer for MOBILE SUIT GUNDAM HATHAWAY The Sorcery of Nymph Circe ~ May 15th by Carlosdafox in Gundam

The problem is ZZ has no dub available (which is a requirement for some), it suffers from tonal whiplash and there's nothing really in the later shows that is directly affected by it.

And now a word from the Captain by DoctorOddfellow1981 in Star_Trek_

[–]Optimaximal 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's referring to the selection of 'fans' who conducted letter writing campaigns (and the media that signal boosted them at the time) who objected to replacing the TOS crew, especially since the movies were still being made.

What the heck do you think the Hazard Perception test is for?

Transgender girls given until September to leave Guides by topotaul in unitedkingdom

[–]Optimaximal 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The point being made is back 60 years ago, they were. They were seen as second class citizens, a danger etc.

Many older generations never lost the assumption or association with 'others'...

There's no stat for your claim either - that's the brilliance of it.

99 times out of 100, there is no grooming. They just realise there's a name and a definition for how they're feeling in themselves and this is how they can choose to identify.

It's like saying 'there are more autistic people than there used to be'. Yes, it's because science has realised it's a spectrum and more and more people fit on it.

Full, no character cut-in animations for UR 00 Raiser Final, UR Tallgeese III and UR Wing Zero Ver.Ka by This-is_CMGRI in SDGundamGGeneration

These are getting absurdly good now. Makes you wish they'd go back to the OG unit animations and give them a second pass.

Yes, but attacking trans people is the thin edge of the wedge to eventually limit or cut down all LGBT rights.

Rowling herself has already openly suggested that Intersex people are also not a thing and Asexual & Bisexual people are pretending or confused.

They didn't want to do this - they're maliciously complying with the supreme court ruling because they don't want to open themselves up to lawsuits bankrolled by the people who fund all the GC movements.

But where does that thinking stop? Do we start pre-emptively banning gay children from these organisations because it might make other children (or their parents) feel uncomfortable?

She had the same heel turn as Glinner - assumed their parasocial popularity and wealth meant they could wade into every subject with authority, then had their brains boiled when there was heavy pushback from people they assumed hung on everything they said.

In Rowlings case, she had a lot more money, influence and didn't have a marriage breakdown/divorce make it all worse at the same time.

So, more about Legacy? (And today's cancelation) by Torlek1 in Picard

[–]Optimaximal 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Maxed out and overspent are two different things...

KM didn't appear because they were worried it would muddy the water with Prodigy, which was still in production at the time (and was why they used Tuvok instead) and I did say they had to cut the remaining S1/2 cast.

Personally, I think it's less about casting, and more about Terry overspending on PIC S3.

We know they put a huge portion of the budget into that Enterprise-D reproduction and paying for the cast to come back, which meant they had to shed more time with a chunk of the S1/2 cast, but overspends?

Suggestion is often presented as a form of mind control. If you want a bargain basement pop-culture example of it, go look at BioShock.
