for april fools we’re deleting this entire site sayonara you weeaboo shits

the thing about Leverage is that as a sort of monster-of-the-week show where the weekly monster is a particular type of Evil Capitalism Guy (gender neutral) from post-recession era America, if you grew up in this time then you're bound to eventually hit an episode where the Evil Capitalism Guy really strikes a nerve because you or someone you love was affected by that type of Guy, and you get absolutely furious and absolutely mark out for the Leverage crew lighting that motherfucker up. for me that episode was "The Future Job" where the Evil Capitalism Guy is a phony spirit medium and when Parker's first response to learning how she got cold read about her brother's death, something completely private and unspeakably personal, was that they should literally just kill him immediately, she was so correct actually.

I rewatched that one recently and I loved how everyone supported her by tearing apart what the fake psychic had done and proving it was fake, and then when, as you said, she asked if they could kill him, Elliott immediately said that he could make that happen. They all care about her so so much.

Resisting the urge to Um Actually this dragon novel because it has the dragon eggs be like three or four feet wide but there is simply a limit to how large hard-shelled terrestrial eggs can be. No matter how large the animal is, the embryo needs oxygen, and oxygen needs surface area. The larger an object is, the lower its surface area relative to volume, and the less oxygen the embryo can receive. We think of large animals as having porportionately large young because mammalian pregnancy has the unique benefit of allowing for the size of the young to scale with the adult because their oxygen is provided directly through the placenta, and almost all the megafauna remaining on Earth are mammals. But this is not the case for species which lay eggs! For fuck's sake even the sauropods hatched out of eggs barely larger than basketballs! Your hatchling dragon would be impressively enormous if it were the size of a house cat. Stop trying to make me believe that this (ROUND!) dragon egg somehow supplied enough oxygen to develop an infant the size of a large dog or even bigger. If it were possible the dinosaurs woulda been doing it!!!!

I love you /lh. Experts going off on their particular fascinating cool topics and adding unexpected context to things we take for granted is like my favorite thing this was delightful. Talk to me more about eggs and geometry and biology all you want :D
