Summer (?) 1992. The final game supplement for the Mayfair Games DC HEROES ROLE-PLAYING GAME was a loose-leaf WHO'S WHO supplement, intended to complement DC's loose-leaf WHO'S WHO update. Only three of the four planned volumes were released before Mayfair lost the DC license. The first volume includes this entry for Legionnaire Brainiac 5, also covered in 2995: THE LEGION OF SUPER-HEROES SOURCEBOOK, which came out months later.

Brainy's game statistics are mostly the same (although this entry gives him 20 more Hero Points), but the special Psychological Instability rules are unique to this version. This wasn't really a problem anymore in the period when this supplement was published, since it really refers to one particular story from 1979 (a guy loses his shit and creates a universe-destroying super-monster ONE TIME and nobody ever lets him live it down …), but it's an interesting mechanic, so I can see why it was included. The reverse side also has a handy checklist of Brainiac 5 appearances, for completists:

The Personality/Role-playing section on the front side makes some dubious assertions. The first paragraph says:

He might be incredibly intelligent, but Brainiac 5 has a great deal of difficulty when it comes to expressing his emotions. When he first joined the Legion, he tried to concentrate on his feelings to fit in with his teammates, none of whom was Coluan. He even fell in love with Laurel Gand and spent a number of peaceful years with her. But inevitably, he became so overwhelmed with leading the team and protecting the universe that he was forced to forgo the luxury of emotion so that he could use his intelligence to its capacity.

While the 2995 sourcebook was written by Legion scripters Tom and Mary Bierbaum, this supplement was not, and I'm not sure what Winninger was talking about in the final sentence. What had happened in the latter third of the 1984–1989 Levitz series was that Brainy had fomented a conspiracy to avenge the death of Superboy by destroying the Time Trapper, one of the Legion's most powerful enemies, a plan that involved sacrificing Brainy's old friend Jaxon Rugarth. The other Legionnaires then put Brainy on trial for violating the Legion code, and although he was exonerated, he was so annoyed by their attitude that he resigned in a fit of pique and went back to Colu. He returned during the Magic Wars and sort of mended fences, although the team subsequently collapsed and he went on to other things during the five-year gap (principally trying to find a cure for the "Validus plague" afflicting Saturn Girl's kids). Some of the specific circumstances were subsequently retconned in ways not reflected in the actual comics, but that was still basically the gist at the time this supplement was published. It was messy, but it was certainly NOT a matter of his forgoing "the luxury of emotion."

The second paragraph says:

As a Brainiac, Dox has an affinity for pure logic. As time goes on, he seems less and less interested in establishing normal relationships with his teammates in the reformed Legion.

This was not at all true. Indeed, one of the charming aspects of the "Five Years Later" period was that Brainy had actually mellowed quite a bit. He was still a little awkward, and there was unresolved baggage between him and Laurel (who in the interim had had a baby with his best friend!), but he was more at peace with himself, and more patient with the people around him, than he'd ever been in past Legion stories. According to the Bierbaums' sourcebook, he was even writing sweet little haiku about his former teammates in his spare time — hardly the action of a cold-blooded logician.

Will you be leaving Tumblr?

Most likely.

From the looks of it, our data has already been compiled and will be handed over tomorrow (I don't have details, the article is locked behind an account creation pop-up) so there's little that can be done for what's already been posted.

I have very little faith that asking those giants to take out our data is going to lead anywhere. There is no obligation in the contract for them to do so.

And even if I were to opt-out, (if that's even going to work at all, remember how well "opting-out" of Tumblr Live worked?) do I really want to keep giving my engagement to a website that feels free to do that kind of scummy shit behind the backs of their userbase? No warning, no talks, no transparency at all? This sits really wrong with me.

So, unfortunately, I most likely will leave Tumblr.

Mini rant or fuck ai reason #???

Any random tumblr user can tell that these are different:

NaOH vs. Na2CO3 vs. NaHCO3

Funny enough they also have different names. And synonyms. And it's fairly hard to make soap with the later two. So why in the world does every search engine in shops and general that i ask to fetch me NaOH (in a 1kg packet. ideally pellets but i'll take beads no problem) come up with 'soda (na2CO3) you want soda?' and when i specify i want caustic soda (one name for NaOH) it's like 1 hit for that and the rest is either soda or worse 'baking soda (naHCO3) yaaay!'.

I don't want either of these and unfortunately I can tell exactly what kind of language fuckup is behind these because Na in german = Natrium, but in english it's sodium. So it goes 'ah sodium.. hm closest is soda (which is also called soda in german)' or worse baking soda (aka Backpulver (lit. baking powder) in german).

and don't look for anything containing the word soap either. bc it will offer you just pure soap and ignore that you asked for a specific ingredient, yes to make soap, no i don't want to buy your pussy shaped pink soap (i wish i was joking)

I just want to make soap. Why does the decay of online searches affect my ability to buy basic materials so hard.

And don't get me started on my quest to buy more lanolin without overpaying for a raw material.. i gave up bc i can only look at so many handcremes and shit before i go mad. i still have some. I'll stretch it a bit.

ive been on vyvanse like 2-3 years now and like everything u described in ur post kinda never goes away but i dunno. i feel like it’s the only medication that works for me so i kinda just find ways around the side effects. like eating big meals in the morning before they kick in and i lose my appetite. i also am either fidgeting or listening to music like allll the time to compensate for the underestimulated feeling.

also the side effects are a lot to take in at first, so u kinda don’t notice all the ways it is helping you. once you get used to it, it feels more helpful and less burdensome.

..omg ok im glad you mananged to get past the side effects/get used to them and tbh idm the appetite thing bc workarounds are there but...the feeling of dullness/seperation/not being quite "you" or like...just feeling like you're not perceiving the world quite right and everything is more muted etc...that's like hell to me tbh !! i would rather do worse in every other aspect of life than give up the lovely intensity with which i feel things and see things and sense things, so having to choose one or the other is such a terrifying prospect...

i rly appreciate this actually, i'm going to force myself thru it for a maximum of 2-3 weeks and if things still feel so simultaneously jittery and distant i will simply stop taking them. good to know it's still a strong possibility that this side effect just doesn't go away w time ! u seem so resilient for getting used to all this tbh omg

also yea eating big meals seems to be smth ppl are saying ! that and protein shakes/bars so im gonna try that tmrw too :) probably not eating pretty much at all today made things worse, we'll see what tomorrow brings ♡♡♡

i do also think the "In that case, a human being inspired by someone's art style, memorizing some vague notion of it and incorporating it into their own art would also be infringing on copyright" argument is intellectually dishonest. I am against IP laws and copyright on the whole. but that's a false equivalency

What demonic marketer decided to use the term "hallucination" to describe when a large language model produces text that isn't true?

Because that's like saying that your magic 8 ball has a tendency to hallucinate.
