STAC Goat posted:That episode actually made me like Devoe's wife a bit more right up until the point where's like "the bad guys I was trying to help refuges of did a monstrous thing so now I totally want to lobotomize the world." That seemed like a stark turn from the person in the rest of the episodes. Yea, and how was that the fault of technology? Strong people have been preying on the weak since time began, its not going to be stop because everyones Int has been halved.

I'm going to write such an angry letter if the climax of the season is Barry outwitting DeVoe with a  "I shall rewrite man's baser desires to use technology to cause murder and destruction" "Isn't your plan to use technology to cause murder and destruction?" "But....but I....am doing it to stop all of mankinds evils!" "By becoming the biggest mass murderer in history? Using technology to kill as no man has ever killed?" "I am doing it for the right reasons!" "That is what every evil person tells themselves DeVoe. I thought you were smart  " "I am defeated. My unmatched intellect has divined that neither of us is wrong. (Insert chess analogy.)"

Just once it’d be neat to see a villain follow through on their plans before they “remember who [they] are.” If you’ve spent the last few months sucking out peoples’ brains so you can ultimately build a dumb bomb and you’re having a night out forcing a handful of tech conglomerate security guards to off themselves so you can steal the elaborate pieces of technology they were guarding, are you really gonna let yourself be talked out of killing your rival’s sidekick’s girlfriend with that first draft bullshit?

To be fair I think you can justify most of what DeVoe has been doing with a little mental gymnastics. Using technology in order to destroy it? Well he's clearly the only person who can use it responsibly because he's so drat smart. People dying as a result of plane crashes etc? Well you've got to break a few eggs... People dying as a result of really useful knowledge like farming getting wiped out? Well that's a shame but if you consider a few billion dead as opposed to complete nuclear armageddon waged by people who don't know what they're doing then it's a good deal. Plus if you want you can thematically tie in his whole "hunter-gatherer" date shtick. I mean none of this poo poo matters anyway, Diaz has already won.

You don't get it. It doesn't matter if Diaz has already won, because Diaz has already won. Also I'm curious what Thunkers manifesto journal proposed since metahumans hadn't been discovered yet and he didn't come up with the "End of Escape from LA except with Brains" plan until he got super thinking powers.

Yeah, somehow that felt even more pathetic than Iris' bachelorette party. She did not even know any of the people two years ago. Would have been so hard to put a couple of extras on a couch in the back or something? Well, maybe she does not want her real friends to get to know her weird criminal nerd friends.

The insular TV show cast get togethers are always funny and kind of pathetic but they do make a kind of sense in shows like this where their lives are so completely insane and filled with secrets. Its sad that Cecile doesn't seem to have any close friends outside Joe's world, but if she did things would probably get really complicated real quick. We saw that a little with Ralph when he realized his old life and friends were scummy and he had changed. Your priorities just shift really wildly. I tend to imagine that everyone who joins Team Flash has a totally normal life before they do but then they just get sucked into all the madness and end up having a bunch of friends who are all "Man, Cecile just disappeared from our lives when she got with that Joe guy." If you join Team Arrow the people in your life just back away slowly because you've become a weird recluse who stays out all night and sleeps all day and are always covered in bruises and cuts and disappear all the time. That or you organize a lot of interventions. If you join Team Supergirl it just makes you Lena Luthor who is always weirdly clueless about the fact that her entire social circle work with Supergirl except for your best friend who looks a lot like Supergirl but you don't care because you're a Luthor so you got a world to

I mean, Sara talked it out with her dad and they seemed to have a kind of understanding but there's a whole "I'm going to just abandon you all and don't worry because its time travel so you won't even miss me but that's not how it actually works and I show up months or years later missing important parts of your life and whoops, I just died." I'm saying Martin's family probably has some unresolved stuff.

Caitlyn being real obsessed with getting Killer Frost back is still a really stupid plot. loving laffo that the end result was Amunet telling her that Killer Frost was inside you all along. Sure was a good thing that Iris told Barry to use his powers to dispel the poison or he would have died. "This means DeVoe can't hide from us anymore."  I guess Barry is forgetting he can shapeshift and teleport around. Also let's assume that a random eyewitness sighting is 100% accurate. Iris' plan was worthless at best and should have lead to a mass panic.howe_sam posted:Council of Wells is always welcome. Council of Harrison is also real good.
