Because rules of language are not laws and are under no obligation to be consistent and/or make sense.

Which would be perfectly fine and not just because I was (and still am) part of that fandom.

That’s what I’m telling myself but everything I read about it suggests there should be very visible movement of the lower leg. Idk, I’ll have to remember to ask next time.
- Comment on Booby Dance 5 days ago:
Yeah, I did figure it out after taking another look. It’s not ideal though for your comic to make readers have to figure out who’s who and where in a panel (unless there’s some effect you want to achieve, like disorientation - rules are meant to be broken after all). Compare the 180 degrees rule in movie making (which is also true in comics).

So I have some neural damage somewhere and none of my doctors care. I feel like there must be something else going on (・_・;)
- Comment on Check mate, Libertarians 5 days ago:
Does this actually do anything? The maybe handful of times a doctor did this to me, I don’t think anything moved at all but they’re always like, “yup, everything’s good, moving on.” Am I weird and doctors are intimidated by the weirdness, so much so that they ignore it, or did cartoons give me unrealistic expectations for the effect this has on a leg?
- Comment on Booby Dance 5 days ago:
Almost perfect, and I’m going to be rude and offer unsolicited, hopefully constructive, criticism: when the second boob appears it’s not immediately clear which one is which because the first one keeps switching between left and right between panels. Otherwise excellent.

- Comment on What challenge from a game isn't worth completing and what challenge from a game is worth completing? 1 week ago:
Gosh, y’know, these days breathing gives you an achievement because gamers like to get achievements to have achievements. Why do gamers like to have achievements? Sense of pride and accomplishment, I suppose. And because I am very simple, I’m the same - I crave that dopamine of the li’l 🎶Di-Ding. And platinuming a game is of course more dopamine. It’s just very useless in most games, it’s nothing but a number somewhere in some statistics. Paradoxically, I think nobody needs achievements and I’m annoyed at how important they’ve become, and at the same time I’m disappointed if there are none.
Challenges that give me equipment that simply has some better stats are … well, challenging. Especially when I don’t get around to them until after I finish the story. That’s when I care the least about increasing my ice damage by 2 points.
Make me explore the world to find things, that’s my jam. Especially if the things I find add to the lore. … No I can’t think of any examples right now.

Ahh, I suspected as much, I don’t remember many details from that tbh. Thank you for clearing that up.

are Betazoids really so vain that the shift of Starfleet HQ is enough to mitigate all their concerns?
“We’re going to move in with you! Make your planet a target for the next Borg attack! And remodel your home! So you can’t easily get rid of us! Isn’t that nice? Doesn’t that instantly make you want to join us?!”

“Discovery is unavailable because X”
Also, did they have what seems to be personal transporters before or is that a new thing? Where they apparently only have to think “I need to go to that room” and they’re instantly transported? That seems like it’ll be a major issue for future writers to come up with excuses why they can’t just put the characters where they need to be.

There was many a memberberry.
At one point I thought that it didn’t look very Trek-y, somehow. Which can be explained of course by the fact that an entire millennium of progress has happened. It should be more surprising that anything does still look familiar. The thing is though that I watch Star Trek for the Trek-iness. The visual familiarity is part of it. I don’t know yet.
Let’s hope episode 3 starts being about more than Caleb’s mum. And science.
At least there was some diplomacy. Although it was weird that they’d negotiate while standing at lecterns surrounded by hundreds of people. Sit down, have a cuppa together, have a conversation, not a debate.
Also, I’m supposed to ship Caleb and his roommate whose name I have forgotten, yes? The way they interact is textbook shipping material. Not to mention They Are Roommates.
