Odo was more straightforward as Rene was almost 80 when he died, but Aron Eisenberg was short because he only ever had one kidney which didn't work that well in the first place, so preexisting health issues that eventually led to his early death at the age of 50 almost 5 years ago in Sept 2019, eerily only 3 months before Rene also died.

The actor was born with only one kidney, which was defective and failed when he was in his early teens. He went on dialysis at age 14 and had his first transplant at 17, from a cadaver.

The actor for Jake hit a massive growth spurt so literally towered over Nog in the end as a result despite the character originally existing to give Jake a friend "his own age" even with Aron/Nog being 6 years older than Cirroc/Jake.

It happens, actors get older, they die, but Babylon 5 feels cursed with how many actors have already gone.

Sinclair, G'Kar, Delenn, Garabaldi, Vir, Dr Franklin, Zach Allen, Zathras. That's a lot of the core cast and several of the most significant secondary cast.

My mind first went to the tuberculosis vaccine, Bacillus Calmette-Guérin, so this isn't a very clear initalism 🤔

One of the other threads about this mentions she had at least 5 children.

On December 16, 2014, ahead of taking her fifth maternity leave

She had her fifth child at age 46

Meanwhile, Babylon 5 had already lost half it's cast while TNG is only just now feeling the effects, and that's e before getting to DS9 which was more analogous to B5 despite both Odo and Nog having died so far.

Someone mentioned how he's like Hank Scorpio and this isn't helping the argument 😂

It was so fucking stupid and I think most of it only happened that one year because the feedback was so bad. The Twitter thing may have been more established so both had a few years on it already and kept going for some more after, but the rest was just a shitshow.

I used to at one point because an idiot uni lecturer decided it would be a genius idea to do stuff though twitter from time to time, but that's so long ago now I don't even remember what my account was. Same idiocy happened with another lecturer who wanted certain coursework done in formats that could be posted to other social media platforms. The take up on those were... "interesting" to say the least as even then there were quite a few people who have social media accounts and didn't want to make one just for course work. Seeing as how several of them had "data leaks" at some point the opinion was well founded.

In English writing, there's a rule to not have any two names sound too similar

This is why Theon's sister was named Yara in the Game of Thrones TV show when in the books her name was either Asha or Osha, because the Wilding girl in a completely different part of the world and books had the other name.

"your shits all retarded and you sound funny"

For a moment I thought this was the line from Idiocracy and while close it's not quite there.

Ah, you talk like a fag, and your shit's all retarded.

The CDPR we have today is not the same one that made the original Witcher trilogy

That wouldn't be the only problem, the TV show will mean a lot more normies taking an interest in the games if more do happen because many normies are so devoid of actual personality they need to latch on to bandwagons to have any experience of being part of a group, despite their behaviour being inherently destructive while companies cater to their denominator.

Inb4 another bridge collapse, this time with added irony since attempts are made to pivot from DEI to BRIDGE.

I'm sure they would be more than willing to give up whatever they were paid for making that episode, right? 🤔

Keep in mind that tiger mauled one of them in 2003 and ended their performances because the damage done was that bad. They tried to downplay the attack claiming it dragged the guy off stage because he was having a stroke but it severed his spine, crippled him, and ended both their careers, and probably their relationship to some extent given just how badly it left one of them.

So "white haired stage trick that turned on his gay handlers that later died of covid and pancreatic cancer" is more accurate than most probably realised when I made that pun, it's just very subtle how it applied to the actual pick :p

one of its two isers

Come on, man! There's totally more than just 2 of them.

WittyUserName might be the only actual poster, but there are the 2 alt accounts trying to stir up drama both there and on Meta right now.

Imp is also there whining into the digital wind because he doesn't have anyone to complain to on his own board.

The best part about Imp trying to lifeboat KiA5 is that the sole mod I mentioned is also active on ConPro, so that gives you an idea of the compromises Imp is willing to make if it means he can keep whining.

when you virtue signal hard enough you remove all agency from your political prop.

If you're like me, you lack the self control to not occasionally click on a Youtube short

Nope.

Or if it's twitter sometimes they'll be TikToks

Also nope.

If the Youtube short has 2000 comments, I bet you like 300 of those comments are correcting that word mistake. So that's 300 free comments to boost engagement.

tl;dr they're using Cunningham's law to generate engagement.

These are the type of tactics that I don't know how these "content creators" sleep at night. It's so dishonest.

Because they get paid.

Dishonest money can't be satisfying

Money is money to some. Probably most.

A little lack of moderation

Meanwhile, the sole mod of KiA5 has made 3 posts in the last 3 months with the most recent being a week ago, so the idiots suggesting things will be better there are "gonna have a bad time". 🙄
