That was a bit of a deep cut for me, but TIL.

Spiderman could web the falling person from above like a bungee cord, or even catch them in a safety net style web.
I rewatched for S4 and honestly S2 just sorta failed as a follow up, but it was... Okay for a procedural. S1 was only great because of the McConaughey/Harrelson duo, the end was actually kinda weak I think. Then S3 was just S1 redux with Mahershala (although I loved his character).
I think S4 might actually be the best complete season.
Non-existent is probably hyperbole, but I think it's pretty reasonable to feel that way after your kids have grown and you realize you never made the time to really focus on them. Even if you have a nominal relationship later, it's as an adult, it's only certain times a year, it's focused on the grandkids etc.
I am about 80% through it as an audiobook (waiting for it to come back from the library) and I agree. Great to listen to him, tons of non Trek info I didn't know that is still quite interesting.
Not the best husband to be sure, but I do like that he's pretty up front about it. Seems like his first marriage was effectively over as soon as he found American success and his wife (understandably) didn't want to abandon her own career in the UK. Hard to listen to Capt. Picard be unfaithful (with Vash no less!) but I felt for him more than most egomaniac rock stars who fuck anything that moves.
EDIT: Also loved how he hates Thatcher for demolishing all of the programs he used to get trained as an actor coming from a poor background. There was a lot of mutual aid in his early life that seems non-existent today.
If you haven't read Patrick Stewart's autobiography that just came out, Making it So, you should. Or, even better, listen to him read it in an audiobook.
You lift the mask off the Military, and it's Imperialism. Lift the mask again and it's Capitalism.
"And I'm getting away with it too, despite you meddling kids!"
Totally agree. Rather see big divisions than no leagues.
Love the idea of having a couple more teams though.
Yeah, when I was DSA it seemed like everyone knew capitalism was fucked but the only answer anyone could think of was canvass and vote harder. I moved on to an actively anarchist org and we never talk politics - only how we can better do the work.
Austin, TX? Nailed it. Both because we're rife with fascists and because we will make them cry.
IRL anarchists are too busy anarchy-ing to fuck around on the internet full time. They spent the last week burning forestry equipment in Atlanta. They spent the last week getting arrested for feeding the homeless. They spent the last week planning a march on your boss. They DGAF about memes, or really anything except creating areas of the world where life is slightly less shit.
This isn't a benchmark of those systems, it's showing that the code didn't regress on either hardware set with some anecdotal data. It makes sense they're not like for like.
