    The Ostrander Suite made me squee. The Harley Quinn Cameo made me smile. I'm glad they got Tara Strong for that. I just realized that Diggle's Ex-wife will be recruiting people to fight the Anti-Monitor.

    maybe i'm being optimistic in thinking that most people would not directly mock someone for having an eye problem

    because that's, like, staggeringly rude and cruel?

    it's grade school shit

    i imagine people in their twenties being, on average, more mature and considerate than that

    is that optimistic?

    Have you met Chu?

    Alright, here's my finished Starbound ship, in three parts

    Bridge Tower, containing the bridge, server room, workshop, sickbay, transporter room and airlock:

    Aft Section, containing engineering, water recycling, cargo bay, agricultural bay:
    1024x542.resizedimage

    Fore Section, containing crew quarters, mess hall, captain's quarters, and crew lounge:
    1024x542.resizedimage

    so much work, every block and item was placed one by one by hand, complete with stuff like inlaid wiring and duct work and plumbing

    During Crisis on Infinite Earths, a character named Harbinger recruited heroes to help the Monitor. She used the alias Lydia Michaels. Which is the name of Diggle's ex, and she uses the code name Harbinger. It's likely just an easter egg. Crisis would be way too big for Arrow to even go near.

    Watching an episode of Law and Order: SVU guest starring Alec Baldwin. Late in the show a guy walks out of an office saying "why do I always have to tell that guy to always be closing?". I got that like Captain America.

    we have hardwired facial recognition systems in our brains

    things that alter the shape of faces mess with our perception of people on a very basic level

    eye patches are one of those things

    some people react to that inappropriately because they are jerkbags incapable of extending common courtesy to strangers

    ...which is why illiterate people are better at faces

    (more seriously, the entire system is designed to recognize faces regardless of obscuration, I don't think you can blame this particular thing on low level neuroscience)

    I was double-booked so they sent me home, and a new slot isn't open until June, which is after I will have moved to BC.

    I'm on a cancellation queue, so if someone cancels they'll call me

    every person who doesn't like an acquired taste always seems to think everyone who likes it is faking it. it should be an official fallacy.

    jungle yi starts at blue

    lux and i go to help him

    before he finishes killing blue he runs into bottom lane and drops a ward.

    top goes 1/13/2

    bottom lane opponents are super-aggressive, i'm basically tower-hugging

    lux runs into the river, gets killed, but i manage to kill both of the opponents immediately after for a double kill. lux says "graves why didn't you help?"

    we're 14/44 at 20:00 and a surrender vote fails

    what the fuck
