Although I suspect this particular eternal darkness that Anubis has waiting for her will come with an overpowering stench of bug spray...

Toxic Fart Syndrome posted:Locked-in Syndrome is basically everyone's worst nightmare about death: that we will be eternally aware of the absence of everything. After a few million years you'd probably get used to it. Or your consciousness would just shut down. Or give you endless lucid dreams.

Getting caught up on this. As soon as I saw the road to Vulcan I said "There is no road in Virginia that looks like that." But Vulcan, Virginia does look exactly like the main street of a small Virginia town.

I expect she gets nothing when a company buys millions of its own books to propel a product onto the bestseller lists. Mierenneuker posted:Speaking of addicts, how would the god of drugs look like? We see a Buddha and Ganesha surrounded by them in the intro, but I can't help imagine some kind of hippie/grunge hybrid. Halloween Jack fucked around with this message at 14:43 on Jul 19, 2017 |

One of my favorite moments in the last episode was when Bilquis walked up to Tech Boy and started rubbing up on him and he reacted like a scared Goon and had no idea what to do. Pretty much exactly how you'd expect an internet nerd to react.

I took that to be a play on the old cyberpunk trope of bleeding edge tech boys having a snobbish disdain for "meatspace" Didn't he make some snarky comment about how that wouldn't work on him?

You'll only find that word in sci-fi books from the 80s/90s and whenever a procedural TV show tries to write some sort of hacker nerd. "We were unable to find the hacker in cyber space because they traced our IP and backdoored it into a 0 TTL packet, we'll have to find this person in meatspace." "Meatspace?" "It's what hackers call the real world. We should start looking at the Space Bar, it's a local hacker bar." Cojawfee fucked around with this message at 04:01 on Jul 23, 2017 |

Everyone she fucks ends up devoured, him saying nah you're not gonna devour me seems like a fair response. I mean, I know goons are desperately looking for someone on screen they can relate to, but you might be reaching a bit too much in this case.

Ohh, I like that term, meatspace. Reminds me of True Detective season 1, Rusty saying "The hubris it must take to yank a soul out of non existence into this meat. And to force a life into this thresher."
