    Even if we presume the sort of wars that had Cronus kill Teal'c father as just Jaffa-culling games, S6E10 explicitly talks about "a System Lord, who was eventually defeated by Apophis about three hundred years ago." Sokar and Anubis almost certainly had some serious ground wars, although we...

    "Lo'taur" were the human 'seconds'/emergency hosts, playing a large role in Summit and Last Stand toward the end of season five. Daniel only talked with Ba'al's Lo'taur, and he was somewhat more genre-savvy than the typical goa'uld, but it did at least motion around around it : Which... uh...

    They aren't very good at that in the source material. S3E3 involves Nirrti -- who the team already distrust beyond the extent they hate other Goa'uld, since she was introduced earlier killing off a large village and putting a bomb in a kid's brain -- managing to sneak in an invisibility device...

    To be fair, a lot of the Goa'uld system lords pretend they're a god for definitions that are more specifically wrong: omniscient, immortal-as-in-unkillable, to the extent they can't achieve anything they want reflects only the opposition of other 'gods'. That's actually (retconned into being) a...

    … Did OL just make a male harpy smell like his sister, and then drop him off to go globehopping with some eligible bachelorette demigods? I guess that’s one way to get demidemigod harpies.

    The episode establishes that some doses of splicing elevate aggression, culminating in McGinness nearly attacking Barbara Gordon and the DA after getting a bat splice megadose. So while reversing the splices to bring trial isn’t /clearly/ legitimate, especially given the constitutional...

    Fun to see this episode mentioned. It’s the furry talking, but it always felt like a missed opportunity: there’s a lot of fascinating human enhancement questions that get pushed aside in favor of a glorified steroid PSA. You’ve got some room to play around with, since the law of the 2030s...

    Did… Alan just leave a big rock on a direct course for a colony world? The Dominators are bad, but I thought they were specifically not ‘kill the civilians because they’re combatants too’ bad. Presumably one of the surviving shield ships could get I, but that seems cold for him.

    I think it's more that it undermines the Green Lantern's authority: there's nothing stopping a world's local authorities from freeing someone a Lantern has seen commit a severe crime, whether intentionally or in the Put Joker In Prison sense, as an example. There's reasons to make that...

    Not sure if it counts as a musical number rather than in-setting, but Invite Them In plays repeatedly during the tail end of the Ophidian merge.

    It’s less that it’s goofy — it is, but so is a lot of other comic book stuff — and more that it doesn’t mean much, and authors haven’t really tried to make it mean much. Anything a speedster needs to do can be tied to the Speed Force, but you have to shake it pretty hard to get a weakness, a...

    It's less physical distance, and more the secondary implications. Space being big doesn't just mean you need Warp 9.9999: it means that it's full of stuff. Rough estimates for the Milky Way galaxy put it somewhere in the scope of 100 billion stars and at least that many planets, at the low...

    Last Seen Here. Not dangerous to Renegrayven directly, but hideously infectious transmutative agents, to the point where they made even his spit into unman-stuff.

    Kinda surprised he can’t find at least the occasional volunteer for more outre work. Just in the furry fandom, not every furry wants to genuinely be their fursona, and some of those who do probably don’t meet The Doctor’s aesthetic sense or comply with the laws of physics, but there’s still a...

    Back during the first trip to Qward: It's not clear how many fail and survive, but given the philosophical nature of it, probably not many. Even actual Weaponers don't expect to be immune or even resistant to the stuff. The more interesting part is actually a little earlier: Yet Kalmin...

    Nuclear weapons are a lot less good of an area denial effort than most people think, especially over the long term. Only the material within a short distance of the detonation itself gets enough neutron flux to transmute into radioisotopes, and while a ground burst boosts that amount a lot...

    Kinda surprised if it works, then. The SI needed both his expertise and Enkindle Need, after all, and he still felt him resist. Also kinda surprised Melmoth isn't alpha striking with the grundygods. Overconfidence of immortality and Grayven being better (aka at all) optimized to fight them...

    Happy pudding is on the extreme side, but one part of the intended horror for Friendship is Optimal is less that your values are realigned into liking PonyLand, and more that everyone around you is built from the ground up to be just what would make you most satisfied.

    For Greenies, sure. But Greenies aren’t allowed. For actual Orange Lanterns, they have to want a thing. OL got bored of saving the lives of injured children at one point. How much should he care about this? How many scry-and-die attacks do you think Ragnar wants to join in on...
