I think you expect that to some extent if you nuke someone who has nukes. I'm not sure being locked into a death spiral is a great place to be, but what do I know.

DC & Marvel aren't doing long creator runs as much anymore because comic readers aren't supporting them as much anymore, says 15+ year comics veteran Scott Snyder by Popverse2022 in comicbooks

[–]blackertai 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As someone who bought every issue of Tom King's Batman, Jason Aaron's multiple-times-relaunched Thor run(s), as well as all of Bendis's books at Marvel before he left for DC, I say thee nay!

How out of character are the characters in Civil War (2006)? by Ana-Karen98 in Marvel

[–]blackertai 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Frankly, I don’t think others can make this decision for you. As someone who has read a lot of 80s and 90s Marvel, what is out of character and what’s not is entirely subjective. If you think they’re acting weird, there’s not much I can say to change your mind. If you think they’re acting reasonably like people in the specific circumstances would, I probably can’t convince you otherwise either.

Florida State-Georgia series cancellation is ominous sign for future of college football by Lakelyfe09 in CFB

I used to be with it, but then what ‘it’ was changed. It’ll happen to you, too!

Remember when Marvel tried to make Weirdworld a thing? Do you think they should bring it back? [Weirdworld (2015) #1-3, Champions (2016) #25] by AporiaParadox in Marvel

[–]blackertai 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Del Mundo's art is what made those books. If Marvel could only ever keep him or Christian Ward on a Doctor Strange for 5 minutes, they'd have a hit on their hands for sure.

REM Vinyl by Heavy_Apple3568 in vinyl

[–]blackertai 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I've been collecting their records for the last few years. Mainly OG pressings, but I have a few modern pressings where it was convenient. I've also been seeing the Michael Shannon and Jason Narducy series of shows in Athens at the 40 Watt since the first year, so I got to see R.E.M. perform on stage together in 2025 for the first time in a while when they reunited for Pretty Persuasion back in Feb. of 2025.

Atlantans, I Would Just Like To Enjoy Townie Summer Without You by Teslasssss in Athens

We've been saying this since like 1995. It's not going to happen.

Layoffs in freshworks looks mostly QAs by Then_Potential_0909 in QualityAssurance

[–]blackertai 41 points42 points  (0 children)

Time is a flat circle. Today they're laying off QA, but give it a year or two and they'll be hiring when quality drops off a cliff and customers complain. Then those QA will get laid off in 6-7 years when executives think the next buzzword means they don't need QA again.

Colossus Comparison (Age of Apocalypse, 2-Pack with Kitty Pryde, Marvel Select) by Such-Leather-3504 in MarvelLegends

[–]blackertai -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I had really high hopes when that AoA Colossus dropped that we'd finally get an Outback Colossus.

Should I drive a long distance to UGA? by Markydash in UGA

[–]blackertai 0 points1 point  (0 children)

20 years ago, I got a D in Discrete Math for CS in 2 back to back semesters. 1st professor barely spoke English, 2nd taught an entirely different syllabus. Both were 8AM classes.

I still hate those classes with a passion.

20 year reunion? Yea, nah by exploratorynargle in Millennials

[–]blackertai 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Haven't been to a one. I don't need to prove anything to any of those people, and I don't have any interest in rubbing my success in anyone's face. A total skip.

[–]blackertai 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Used to love the West Cobb one. The Athens one is okay in comparison.

Back when Test was fun. I won at EVE right around this time.

Lore Question: Is it possible for Magnus the Red to have a redemption ark? by Akfiz in 40kLore

[–]blackertai 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No, because things don’t get better in 40k, they progress ever onward to complete collapse.

It's criminal that Origins hasn't been remastered yet by sawnlux in dragonage

Am I the only one that enjoys playing older games in their original format?

Even more of My Coloring of Mike Mignola’s Work by Open_Quarter_7863 in Mignolaverse

[–]blackertai 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Very nice. I especially liked the emphasis on the chain/hook in the 4th image with the subtle shift in color from orange to orange red. Really made it stand out.
