I wish I could find the one where Wonder Woman gazes into a villain's eyes and vows to teach her about love. Or the one where we see a lineup of her villains, including the half that are crossdressing women.

I have a friend that works in campus lab safety at a University which shall remain unnamed. Recently a lab had a mercury spill and they decided that it would be best to just wash it down the floor drain. People are loving stupid as poo poo everywhere you go in life, and I just felt like making that point..

Nope. Germany has far more english speakers and thus, more anime nerds.

Is that the place I'm supposed to take spent batteries, too? I always feel bad about chucking them in the trash.

Also any good stuff on Netflix right now? I've seen most of the major series and realized I was scraping the bottom of the barrel when I finally tried to watch Harlock Space Pirate and, well...

I think e-waste centers will take batteries since there is probably money to be made from scavenging them but none of them want tube bulbs because there's no money in it
