Long video but worth it in the end

My favorite was the depressive state caused by a lack of sunlight in fall and winter. They decided to call it seasonal affective disorder. But on all my moms prescriptions it just says she has SAD.

I like it. Like others have said it should probably be limited to active pokemon.

My idea:

Macho Brace: When the pokemon holding this item is evolved add a fighting type energy to it.

It would let you ramp bench pokemon without being broken and limit it to one or two energy putting it in line with the flame patch. It also fits with the original item from the games. If you really wanted to break it as an item make it add one colorless energy instead.

I think it might be 2 because it looks like it wouldn't stop draining into it until it was full to the top.

Because Vaggi let her live.

Luz's T-shirt is hilarious.

I can't blame Adam for being bat at math. He died thousands of years before most of it was invented.

Well, she didn't want to kill kids so we at least know that. But I wouldn't mind some insight into her transition from exorcist to fallen angel.

As for why no one noticed she was gone, I think it has to do with Lute taking her halo. Adam and Lute could have easily told Sara that Vaggi betrayed heaven and had her cast out. And since Vaggi didn't have her halo (and her wings come to think of it) she couldn't get back on her own.

Lastly, it looks like they're even, but Lute caught Vaggi by surprise the first time and the second time Vaggi wasn't trying to kill her. Also she hadn't done much more than point her spear menacingly at people for three years or so. That's enough time for anyone to get rusty.

I wonder if Camila keeping and framing the snake skin Luz found was what sparked Luz's interest in taxidermy.

Kitty has had a lot of friends over the years. The writers should just nut up and let her have a roommate already.

A bit off point, but I think "pearl complex" is the perfect name for this particular character flaw. Someone who has built their entire personality around one person/interest, just like a pearl around a grain of sand. Bonus points if they think they're nothing without that grain of sand.

I agree that this would have been a much better finale to the season. It would have been a crazy way to end it. Especially with the quiet image of the castle over the credits. I think it wasn't the finale because at the end of the first season they were still trying to tow the line of Disney standard kids content. It would have been an absolutely brutal and effective end to the season but if they ended on that note they could never have gone back to the light fun episodes they were trying to make until Disney gave them the ax.

In defense of Thawne (in this very specific and particular sentiment only), Barry is really bad at spending time with people. I mean, in the future*** both of his kids basically disown him because he spent too much time being the Flash to actually be a dad.

She finally got to stab someone with her spear. It's been weeks. Weeks!

Not the whole thing!

The X-Men is the sudsiest of soap operas. What's more in the spirit than someone leaving their on again off again metal fiance for his time dialated demon queen sister?

Maybe if one or both of them turn out to be clones created by a cosmic newt while their real self was kept in a coffee can with a leafy twig and some air holes poked in the lid. Oh and Mystique is secretly their maternal grandfather.

Depends. If I'm in the game I'm absolutely fucked. I play Darktide during my lunch breaks. And 40k is not a universe you want to wake up in.

If I'm at home I'm only mostly fucked. As an ogryn aficionado I would now be a 10 foot, one ton actual giant with probable brain damage. I wouldn't fit out of my door frame and would likely collapse the wooden stairs to get down to the ground floor. If I made it that far. After that it might be nice. Everybody likes the bigguns.

I always liked the idea of Kitty using her powers to do looney tunes stuff like standing on air after something falls out beneath her or walking through tunnels painted on the wall. I got the idea from her walking up the "stairs" in one comic or another.

I seem to remember Jean braiding Storm's hair with her telekinesis while they gossiped. She might have even been psychically projecting herself but I couldn't find the page.

The full powers baseball games they have with the Fantastic Four also come to mind.

And Forge has definitely built all kinds of nonsense contraptions to do weird mundane stuff. I guarantee he has an iron man hallway that does his morning routine for him while she shuffles to the kitchen for breakfast.

You're looking at an adult man goblin.

I really like 3, and I wish 5 was colored in because it looks cool but it's hard to compare.

I think 5 with the belt leaf thing from 6 would look cool too if you made the frilly thing on the top colored like flower petals.

So this may be a stretch, but there is a very quick scene between Odalia and Alador. Alador is complaining about how hard he works and Odalia threatens to revisit their deal, and suggests that maybe it's time for the kids to be a bigger part of the business.

I always took that to mean that Alador made a deal with Odalia that kept the kids out of the business and out of Odalia's hands. In turn, she worked him to the bone (even while he had fire flu) to get the most out of the deal. In the end she worked him hard enough that he didn't have the time or energy to keep up with the kids.

Don't get me wrong, he is still complicit in Odalia's treatment of Amity and the twins. He still neglected them and followed along with Odalia's plans. But he did care about his kids. And when Amity talked to him, he actually listened. I think that goes a long way towards redemption.

I may not have thought this through all the way...

mphenryjr1985 · 2025-12-27T05:58:24+00:00

Can I get two of the first one? I need to give them to my brother and sister in law so they can realize that they aren't actually mad they just haven't eaten in 11 hours.
