Did anyone else think Danielle’s portrayal of a terrible singer wasn’t very convincing?

To me, Trina’s singing sounded a lot more like someone who was singing off-key on purpose (her vocals seemed quite solid, they were just being used incorrectly) than someone who genuinely could not sing (I would know, because I am a terrible singer myself, and the way I sing and the way Trina sings are both bad but in very different ways).

The singing of Daisy (the little Asian girl who was forced into Jade’s play) was far more in-line of a genuinely terrible singer, IMO (I have no idea if her actress was a good singer IRL or not, all I know is she voiced Kai-Lan, but she nailed a terrible singer far more convincingly than Danielle did, IMO).

Is it really a thing where students can get administratively dropped from an intro-level foreign language class if it’s found out that they know the language too well?

TIL it’s not just Younster Joey

It’s well-known that Youngster Joey’s “top-percentage Rattata” has an ironic 0 IV distribution across all its stats. But what I didn’t know until recently is that in HGSS, all Pokémon owned by the “weaker” NPC classes (i.e. Youngsters, Lasses, Bug Catchers, Campers) have 0 IV’s in all their stats. It’s not the universe shitting on Joey’s “top-percentage” Rattata, it’s just the system.

Headcanon: Super Nerd Miguel donated (or possibly sold) his fossil to the Fuchsia zoo and that’s why the fossil mon the player didn’t pick is always displayed there

And yes, I’m aware the IRL reason was so players can add seen data of the base form of the fossil they didn’t choose to the dex

Do you guys consider the new Stuart series as a canonical follow-up to TBBT?

The original show was almost always grounded in reality (can’t really think of an instance where the show went too deep into sci-fi that would’ve been impossible IRL), so it just seems out of the original show’s element for the original gang to have invented an inter-dimensional traveling device (AKA quantum entanglement device) that is very obviously pure sci-fi.

Barty Crouch Sr. is a dark reflection of the kind of person Percy would have become

Both prioritized institutional power, rules, and career advancement over the emotional well-being of their families. Crouch neglected and eventually disowned his son, mirroring how Percy alienated his loving parents and siblings for a desk job under Cornelius Fudge.

Percy’s obsession with Crouch showed a dangerous willingness to worship authority figures who viewed subordinates as disposable (highlighted by how Crouch, a man who could speak multiple languages, couldn’t even be bothered to learn Percy’s name).

Crouch is the ghost of the man Percy was dangerously close to becoming: a lonely, unfeeling bureaucrat consumed by ambition. Percy ultimately chose family and conscience over power, avoiding Crouch's tragic fate.

“That’s what I love about science. There’s no one right answer.”

The gang reacted to that comment like another one of Zack’s dumb comments. But what was wrong with this quote specifically? Science very often has more than one right answer.
