Texting or Calling

All right, I have a serious question: Does everybody really like texting more than calling? Because personally, texting gets me tired way too fast and calling helps me understand tones more and gets my talking juices going.

Therefore, poll:

It's been awhile, but a conversation with my housemates inspired a very silly poll about the problematic fave of TOS episodes:

I'm guessing the censorship logic for the first of these is that Shatner-as-Janice seductively using her feminine wiles to lure a man into committing murder isn't gay, because Janice is a woman who stole Kirk's body and thus it's straight, even though what we're seeing is Shatner doing this in classically campy style.

But the logic of the second is, presumably, that Kirk trapped in Janice's body telling Spock he's closer to him than anyone in the universe and Spock knows his thoughts -> Spock melding with him to confirm his identity -> the two of them running off with Spock holding Kirk's hand/wrist through multiple scene cuts for 25 seconds onscreen (and who knows how long in-story) isn't gay because Kirk is played by a woman at the time.

But personally, I feel you can have "it's not gay if the characters are a man and a woman even if the actors are the same gender" or you can have "it's not gay if the actors are a man and a woman but the characters are the same gender" but not both!

SUMMARY: Two mermaid sisters become caught in a love triangle when they fall for the same man.

Mod Z says: Mermaid horror is so underrated. I was so scared of being drowned by a siren as a kid, but now I embrace the creepiness that comes with the concept of mermaids (and yes they exist!)

Su-a-Heo:

Whale Star: The Gyeongseong Mermaid is set in Joseon (Korea) during the Japanese occupation. Su-a is very sweet and determined. She becomes mute due to having lye poured down her throat to kill her after accidentally overhearing a conversation between the resistance fighters. She eventually joins them, having witnessed firsthand the impact of the Japanese colonization. Even though she's in over her head at first she proves to be reliable and effective despite not knowing how to write or read at first.

Best Poké Ball Tournament-

Round 1: Match 2

Up next in Round 1 is a very unusual matchup!

In one corner is the rather obscure Lure Ball- one of Kurt's signature Poké Balls that we'll be seeing throughout the competition. Made from Blue Apricorns, the Lure Ball is designed to be used on Pokémon found while fishing, and depending on the game, it can have a 3, 4, or even 5x multiplier when doing so! However, in the most recent games, Scarlet and Violet, it's the subject of a glitch which means it only ever has a 1x catch multiplier- functioning no different from a regular Poké Ball. Despite the unfortunate luck, it's still an interesting Ball with a unique look!

On the other hand, we have a particularly special Ball. The Origin Ball isn't even a Ball really- it's a truncated icosahedron! It's one of the few times a particular Ball is important to the plot, when in Legends Arceus, the player uses the Ball to catch either Origin Forme Dialga or Origin Forme Palkia. The Origin Ball also cannot be selected as an item in battle, and therefore can't be used on any other Pokémon- in fact, it's the only usable Poké Ball to also be a key item. It also shakes 3 times like the modern Poké Balls we know and love, whereas other Hisuian Balls only shake once. A one-of-a-kind Ball through and through, will it make it to Round 2?
