    Do you ever go back & look at your old posts?

    I feel nostalgic for some Sunless Sea fanfiction I created a thread for a couple years ago and reread it. http://www.escapistmagazine.com/forums/read/9.1054995-Tales-of-terror-on-the-Zee-open-spoilers-for-Sunless-Sea Reminisced about that time I replaced my ship's doctor with a figment...

    What is Asexual?

    Hate to interject but even if they were the only human being on the planet who lacked interest in anyone else, it would not invalidate the experience. Also, think of the gender you are not attracted to. Speaking for myself, I feel almost revolted at the thought of getting it on with another...

    Oh shit, I hope everything's okay. This board would be much worse if she abandoned us for good.

    Sleep Disorders: Ain't We Got Fun?

    Huh, my quote notifications are not working. Anyway, the skeleton-waking-nightmare aspect would be shattering. For me, it never manifested as a sense of there being someone else next to me (possibly because, growing up, there often was a dog there anyway) and just as being trapped within...

    Sleep Disorders: Ain't We Got Fun?

    Yep, I have lived my whole life with sleep paralysis and it is the fucking worst. That feeling of being trapped within yourself that suddenly makes breathing through your already asthmatic lungs difficult (though it wasn't a problem till you started thinking about it), the otherwise alien...

    You can restart your life with one memory, which is it?

    I don't see how any one memory, devoid of context, would be of any value whatsoever. I mean, my individual memories are only important insofar as they relate to other memories: My wedding day was a very happy memory because of the really good times leading up to it. The day I signed the...

    Doctor Sleep gets high praise from King

    Keep in mind that the original novel is kinda sucky. Not terrible but very Stephen King by-the-books: Main char is a recovering alcoholic, villains that seem threatening from far away but become less and less of an apparent threat the longer the story goes culminating in at the end of the book.

    Most useless protagonists (a discussion of Good Omens)

    This happens in any type of religious fiction (which Good Omens kinda is and is kinda not). If you ever read the Left Behind series (which you should not do), the characters are all passive observers for what they know is just divine theater.

    Face/Off

    The thing about Face-Off is that is was a bonkers premise acted with utter madness by the two leads but played completely straight other than that. I vaguely recall there was this "gritty" subplot about a super-high-tech-prison where everyone has these bulky magnetic bootie-things. OTOH that...

    Is EA at this point at its absolute lowest?

    At this point, I have nearly forgotten that EA is still a company. I don't buy sports games and skipped Mass Effect Andromeda and whatever it was called with the jetpacks so it has been years since I have actually seen their logo in a game I play.

    How did the inheritance issue get resolved for the returned 3 billion people in the aftermath of Avengers:Endgame? I'd probably be pretty pissed if I came back from the dead to find my beneficiary had taken my RSP & pension payout, remarried and used the funds on a down payment.

    [Politics] Trump fires national security advisor John Bolton

    Tough to find someone worse than Bolton. Guy was one of the top cheerleaders of the Iraq war. The Reality TV star/slumlord/rapist looks positively saintly by comparison.
