  1. Exocet - the Effects of a different Falklands

    First of all, I'll echo the sentiment that it's great to see this timeline back! Second, while the exact nature of this was not unknown, it has been hinted at for a long time that some great tragedy would be a-coming to America. It's grim reading to be sure and I'm not sure where it goes next...
  2. TLIAW: Who Governs?

    Ah! THE GREAT LIST HAS COME! The Scottish list is a list of very smart choices for the role of First Minister (or the equivalent thereof) though it did surprise me that there was in fact a second Alex Ferguson who was not involved in football so I've learnt something new today in that respect...
  3. Bicentennial Man: Ford '76 and Beyond

    Honestly I'm happy with either direction you want to take. I do really dig the small scale approach you are focusing upon (I don't comment so much because a lot of these subjects are genuinely new to me) but I'm not against getting to the meaty parts (for lack of a better term).
  4. TLIAW: A Fleeting Wisp of Glory

    First of all, super pumped to see this pop up! Secondly I am slightly embarrassed that my immediate reaction to seeing who Kennedy's replacement was to mentally boo and hiss like a pantomime baddy just strolled onto the stage. Not because it's a bad choice or anything, I was stoked to read it...
  5. TLIAW: Who Governs?

    To be honest I've not got really too much to say on this final one, other than it's the perfect capstone to this whole timeline. Part of it is the fact that again, this is someone I've no real connection too (which arguably makes it all the more interesting!). I will say that I did get briefly...
  6. TLIAW: Who Governs?

    An interesting choice to be sure! Not really one I'm even remotely familiar with but definitely a unique choice. Also President Lujan drew a smirk from me, fun choice. God the realization of who Renshaw was and his relative success is...ugh. I was honestly surprised by how sympathetic I found...
  7. "Bill's Out, Now What?" A Different Doctor Who

    Ridley as Father Brown is inspired casting, as is Brett's Lupin!
  8. TLIAW: Who Governs?

    Okay so this one didn't even remotely ring a bell at first but the second I looked up who it was I just groaned. On a side note, just hearing that Ralph Reed got known out of insular political circles is definitely an ick moment in and of itself. As is the confirmation that we still get a bloody...
  9. Bicentennial Man: Ford '76 and Beyond

    I'm glad to have helped! Though more credit to you is deserved for turning my stream of consciousness ramble into something cohesive. I broadly know what's coming next so I won't speculate but I am looking forward to seeing it in action.
  10. "Bill's Out, Now What?" A Different Doctor Who

    The fact that no one on ITV decided that any one of these episodes could be expanded upon is thoroughly disappointing to me. At least give me more Donald Pleasance as Carnacki, if you're going to take Max Carrados or Hagar Stanley away from me!
  11. "Bill's Out, Now What?" A Different Doctor Who

    Whoops! I'll get that sorted now! And thanks very much!
  12. "Bill's Out, Now What?" A Different Doctor Who
    Threadmarks: Chapter Five: Season 2

    What happened over the course of 1964 is heavily debated to this day. And how it occurred depends on which side of the argument you were on. If you took the side of the Corporation, they’d tell the story of a rowdy and peevish little man who’d not realized he’d struck gold until he had it...
  13. TLIAW: Who Governs?

    I am slightly embarrassed by how, upon realizing I didn't recognize the name and seeking out information, I got genuinely excited when I learnt it was Mr Plebgate himself! Shocking to see him use it to his advantage here but thrilling nonetheless. The prevailing feeling of grimness (Enviromental...
  14. TLIAW: A Fleeting Wisp of Glory

    Masterful! As an introduction to the timeline this ranks as one of the best, utilizing a selection of familiar faces to knock the established history juuuust enough off the beaten track so that by the end everything feels very different indeed. LBJ ranting about getting involved in a bungle in...
  15. Some Markers for Others to Follow: A TLIAW

    Also, a thought that I had at random. All these new parties will be a struggle in the runoff system but I imagine that the battles for Congressional seats are like car crashes given the current state of the nation.
