In which, Andrew and Tracy discuss Season 2 of Netflix’s Daredevil. There were a lot of plot threads in season 2 and a lot of antagonists running around. Tracy loved the character development of Punisher and Karen Page–and apparently cannot pronounce “pep talk” without some practice. Andrew defends Foggy as a character, but was unimpressed with Elektra; and both of us appreciate the series’ choice to replace Ben Ulrich.

Hello again, folks. In my last post I talked about a subject near and dear to my heart: war games, both table top miniatures and board games. I also noted the absence of women and girls as players on these games. I set out to see if I could glean a reason for this phenomenon, and had a couple of female gamers place a war game called Command and Colors Ancients.

While I don’t think there really is a nature vs nurture fight (this is to say I don’t think it can be 100% one or the other: it is likely both) I do think every now and again we run face first in to the wall of nature.
