No new comic ? Weird.
I'm european. I can read Celsius and Kelvin. Fahrenheit, nope. Have to ask Google for that. Also feet, stone, whatever. That all means nothing to me.
Recently saw a video about one inch sensors and the author complained there was no actual relation to one inch about the sizes of these sensors, for historic reasons dating back to tube based light recording devices. I had no clue because inch as a measurement means nothing to me, either. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uw-KNmq5WRM
And yes on the southern hemisphere its currently summer. It is known.
--- Quote from: Tova on 20 Dec 2021, 19:47 ---Those are both fine and good elements of storytelling, but a film with characters whose motives are not at all easily comprehended, and villains who are their own worst enemy, do not necessarily in and of themselves unrealistic or bad films make.
--- End quote ---
Its okay/cool/realistic if your characters have layers, or are mysterious in some ways. However in many cases its just that the script authors have no idea about the motivation of their characters, instead of keeping them intentionally ambiguous between different possibilities, and thats plain bad.
Being his own worst enemy fits quite well to the villain in Arcane, actually.

I do love snow and winter in general, but we just managed to finally buy our first home and I suspect my opinion of snow might change rather abruptly once I fully realize I have to take care of snow removal, worry myself about snow on the roof, etc.

Other - I hate snow, but I live in Farmland USA and if we don't get snow, we don't get corn or cotton and the cattle go hungry. I will suffer through it for the sake of the land/cows.

Wouldn't a cube have 8 elbows, not 4?
