''Tenchi Muyo! Ryo-Ohki" version, on the off-chance it makes a difference.

Asking for a possible story image.

I am incredibly surprised that no one has suggested this previously. In fact, I just spent the last 20 minutes searching the boards to make sure I hadn't overlooked or forgotten a recommendation, but other than two fic links, this is basically the first time Kpop Demon Hunters has been mentioned here. I will admit that I haven't actually seen the film yet -- getting Peggy to stop watching her European crime dramas long enough to watch something else with me is a superhuman task that I have to date failed at -- but I've fallen in love with this song. So much so that I find myself re-choreographing the Ministry Battle to use it. If I'm forced to choose between it and Sergey Lazarev's "You Are The Only One", I honestly don't know which I'll pick.



Ugh, you came at a bad time
But you just crossed the line
You wanna get wild?
Okay, I'll show you wild

Better come right, better luck tryin'
Gettin' to our level
'Cause you might die, never the time,
Tryna start a battle
Bleeding isn't in my blood
뼛속부터 달라서 (Because we are different to the very core)

Beating you is what I do, do, do, yeah

Body on body, I'm naughty,
Not even sorry
And when you pull up, I'll pull up
A little late to the party (la-la-la-la)

Locked and loaded, I was born for this
There ain't no point in avoiding it
Annoyed? A bit
불을 비춰, 다 비켜, 네 앞길을 뺏겨 (Shine the light—get out of the way, or lose the path ahead.)

Knocking you out like a lullaby
Hear that sound ringing in your mind
Better sit down for the show
'Cause I'm gonna show you
How it's done, done, done

HUNTR/X don't miss
How it's done, done, done
(Hey) HUNTR/X don't quit
How it's done, done, done

Run, run, we run the town
Whole world playin' our sound
Turnin' up, it's goin' down
HUNTR/X show this,
How it's done, done, done

Yeah, something about when you come for the crown
That's so humbling, huh?
갑자기 왜 그래? 먼저 건드려, 왜? (Why are you acting like this all of a sudden? Why did you provoke me first?)
이제야 포기해 what? (You're only giving up now? What?)

Nothing to us, run up,
You're done up, we come up
From sunup to sundown,
So come out to play
Won either way,
We're one in a million
We kill 'em, like, really? You want it? Okay.

Heels, nails, blade, mascara
Fit check for my napalm era
Need to beat my face, make it cute and savage
Mirror, mirror on my phone, who's the baddest?
(Us, hello?)

Knocking you out like a lullaby
Hear that sound ringing in your mind
Better sit down for the show
'Cause I'm gonna show you
(I'm gonna show you)
(I'm gonna show you)
How it's done, done, done

I don't talk, but I bite, full of venom (uh)
Spittin' facts, you know that's
How it's done, done, done

Okay, like, I know I ramble
But when shootin' my words, I go Rambo
Took blood, sweat, and tears to look natural (uh)
That's how it's done, done, done

Hear our voice unwavering
'Til our song defeats the night
Makin' fear afraid to breathe
'Til the dark meets the light

(How it's done, done, done)
Run, run, we run the town (Done, done, done)
Whole world playin' our sound (Done, done, done)
Turnin' up, it's going down (Done, done, done)
HUNTR/X, show this,
How it's done, done, done

We hunt you down, down, down, down (down)
We got you now, now, now, now (got you now)
We show you how, how, how (show you how)
HUNTR/X don't miss,
How it's done, done, done

Ahoy to Bob and all.

Old fart with far too many hobbies/ interests to name.  Currently working my way through 20+ webnovels Chinese Xianxia/ Manga/ Manwha/ ect.  

I'm part of 4-5 different fan translation groups, mostly doing proofing and lettering.

Some of you have know/ known of me for decades.

"Long time listener. 1st time caller".  (you get the deal.)

Peace all

Apparently, it's been known to at least one court since 2008.

I'm not going to say the name here, because Banksy didn't authorize the disclosure. I'll just point you at a rather long Reuters article that says it.

I stumped Perplexity with the question "When was the first sunrise after September 13, 2018 at Tycho Crater on the Moon?"

Quote:I can’t determine an exact clock time or Earth date for that specific sunrise with the information and capabilities I have.

To answer precisely, one would need:

• A detailed ephemeris for the Moon’s rotation and orbit.
  
• The selenographic coordinates and local topography of Tycho Crater.
  
• Software that can propagate the lunar geometry from 13 September 2018 onward and solve for when the Sun’s elevation at that location next crossed from below 0° to above 0°.
  

In principle, you could get this by:

• Using a professional ephemeris package (e.g., JPL Horizons via suitable software) to compute the Sun’s apparent position as seen from Tycho’s coordinates as a function of time.
  
• Including local horizon/topography (Tycho’s rim and central peak) to refine when direct sunlight first reaches the crater floor or central peak.
  
• Numerically finding the first time after 2018‑09‑13 when the solar altitude becomes positive at the chosen point inside Tycho.
  

Without access to those tools and data right now, I can’t give a reliable numeric answer; only this procedure to obtain it.

My apologies for not posting a pointer last week.

Chapter 1 of 5 vs 5, "The New Kids in Town", went up last week.

Chapter 2 of 5 vs 5, "Getting to Know You", went up today.


Yes, this is the story that I didn't finish before we rebooted the franchise...

Nathan Fillion has just announced that a Firefly animated series is in development. The original cast is returning to do the voices, and some character design artwork has been made public:

   

Bill Kurtis retires as 'Wait Wait...Don't Tell Me!' judge and scorekeeper

He is 85, after all. His final episode (unless he comes back for a special occasion) airs May 23.

You've heard his voice. But if you need a reminder:

Dad's been in the hospital this past three and a half weeks after a fall that saw him with a cracked vertebra, along with some other compl9icating factors, age also being among them as he's near ninety. Managing pain has been a balancing act due to that, so medical consent and so on has been upo to me by proxy, though we have talked about it before so I have some guidance on his wishes in that area. Tomorrow, assuming all the specialists involved still agree that going forward is a good idea, he'll be going in for back surgery to stabilize the fracture, to reduce the risk of moving the wrong way and worsening it or damaging his spine, and the doctors are confident but there's always some risk to any surgery, and the margins for error get lower the older the patient is.

I am not a religious person, but I know Dad does have notions about faith that roughly add up to not needing to be in a church to be heard and not needing a preacher if there's any message traffic the other direction, and I know he'd appreciate any well wishes anyone cares to send his way. We could all use some good vibes; it's been a rough month all around. (World issues aside, I was also in the hospital for a couple weeks with some burns on my legs and diabetes-related factors, but am largely recovered and back on even keel at this point.)

This short story can be read on AO3

... and of course on the wiki too

... which I feel I should mention because AO3 was down most of yesterday.  All of our stories eventually make it to the wiki, but multi-chapter stories aren't moved into the public space until they're complete.
