  • I don’t know about the US, but in the UK, rebuilding would be covered by the homeowner’s buildings insurance.

    Although insurance companies would probably try to claim it as an Act Of God to get out of it. Don’t know how that would go legally…

  • Oh, “bud hole…”

  • They probably decided they didn’t want to waste money paying to house an immigrant rapist and just deported him instead.

  • “You’re in the Union City recycling plant…”

  • Unfortunately for Wells, only the tumour became invisible…

  • I’m still waiting to see ‘normal’ people taking about it or say it’s good. Is it as good as Andor?

  • Interesting.

    I think the pacing was a bit off - it mostly felt rushed. Could have done with being an extra 15-30 minutes, really.

    Not sure about The War Chief

    Most of the effects were good. The colour did highlight just how cheap some of the sets were, such as the children’s magnets used as “control circuits” for the SIDRATs 🤣

    I liked both the War Lord and the Doctor’s trials. I actually liked the regeneration sequence, although the second bit with Pertwee before he falls out of the TARDIS unconscious seemed unnecessary and a bit uncanny valley, even if the 1970/1980 gag was pretty good.

    Overall, yes, I’d call that a success.

  • Shakespeare invented literature, so clearly there’s no value in teaching anything from before him…

  • What better way to say “we respect our trans friends” than letting the government shut down instead of signing an anti-trans bill?

    (Well obviously it would be to get some pro-trans legislation in there, but at least try and be on the right side of history)

  • Fair.

  • Bloody shoppers!

  • DOCTOR: Oh. My, God! Oh, it's bigger! 

    RIVER: Well, yes.

      DOCTOR: On the inside…

    RIVER: We need to concentrate.

    DOCTOR: Than it is…

    RIVER: I know where you're going with this, but I need you to calm down.

    DOCTOR: On the outside!

    RIVER: You've certainly grasped the essentials.

    DOCTOR: My entire understanding of physical space has been transformed! Three-dimensional Euclidean geometry has been torn up, thrown in the air and snogged to death! My grasp of the universal constants of physical reality has been changed forever!

    DOCTOR: Sorry. I've always wanted to see that done properly.

  • We follow Delia. Turkey in the oven before 10 and we were eating by half two.

  • But at least he’d have tried… history remembers that too.

  • Finally! The sequel to Troy we’ve all been waiting for…

  • I mean, if you don’t trust any apps or the GDPR or the bank, at that point you should probably just keep the money in cash under your tinfoil hat…

  • I could try and get into a semantic argument about the difference between “more complicated” and “more complex”, but I won’t 😉

    Full disclosure: I play Pathfinder. I haven’t touched D&D in years…

  • Pathfinder. For people that play D&D and think “I wish this had more complicated rules…”

    But yes, that’s how crits work in Pathfinder - if you beat the target number by 10, that’s a crit success. Conversely, if you miss the target number by 10, that’s a crit fail.

  • Do it. We’ll adjust and hopefully take it as a kick up the arse to increase speed on the transition from gas.

    Whereas they’ve just stood up in front of the world and said “we can only operate by violating human rights, which we are absolutely doing”

    To adapt the Mitchell and Webb sketch… yes, you’re the baddies.
