Been a real busy week got my ears pierced and a low undercut both sides. Looks great.

From the debate at the time, I think it was a timing thing too, you jump too soon you’re an ethereal hyperdrive ship that passes through them, you jump too late their shields are up and /or their tractor beam is stopping you (for small kamikaze ships).

That’s why I think Leia should have done it and for any non force user it would have been next to impossible etc. Plus it completes Kylo’s ascension that both his parents are dead.

Oh yeah the throne room fight was good, like more of a brawl than over choreographed stuff in the prequels.

There was only two things that were good.

The infantry landing onto the side of a space destroyer in high atmosphere was a neat idea. Undone I think by having the weird horse cavalry. Really needed an Andor or Rogue One seriousness to pull off.

But I did like the Rey and Kylo Ren being able to affect and pass objects accross time and space. It built on the force projection from the Last Jedi.

It felt weird and magical how the force should be. And they used it enough in earlier scenes that passing the saber back and forth was not a deus ex macchina in the finale.

Ray being a nobody and Snoke getting killed without any backstory was two of the best twists possible. Both undone.

I read that RJ wanted the suicide hyper drive attack to be done by Leia and got overruled. That would have made so much more sense.

Her tapping the force to pull off a once in a lifetime thing that even veteran pilots and computers can’t do.

Like Luke with the deathstar.

James Madison had a BMI of 17, sired no children with his wife and wrote very intimate letters to Thomas Jefferson and hung out with Alexander Hamilton (pretty much agreed by most historians to have been bisexual). It was him.

I’d second not jumping into Capital immediately, in countries like Vietnam and Cuba, many ML parties around the world and previously in the USSR they taught historical and dialectical materialism prior to Capital. So you have a philosophical foundation to lay the economics.

Stalin’s Historical and Dialectical Materialism and Mao’s On Contradiction are good entries on top of the stuff @Cowbee@hexbear.net mentioned. Personally growing up in the west it can be confronting to consider reading those two due to propaganda but they are concise and easy to read primers for the heavier stuff.

It seems paradoxical but concentrated urine is an irritant and that stimulates the bladder, being hydrated is actually a step to treat bed wetting (also helps constipation which often contributes by creating more pressure on the bladder too).

This is Chappell Roan’s fault

I don’t like facial hair but if clean shaven wasn’t an option I’d have a gay little pencil mustache.

I made my Nevarine head of Telvanni, then located all the slaves and killed the people holding their keys and freed them. Didnt get expelled because Telvanni can kill each other without (official) consequences if you’re strong enough.

Jonathan Hickman wrote a short comic series called Pax Romana about futuristic mercenaries who perform a coup on a Catholic Church funded mission to go back in time to the 4th century to prevent the East/West split of the Roman empire. It’s not great, but one thing I liked is a bunch of non-white characters go “Huh, wait we’re not abolishing slavery right away? Fuck that!” and steal nukes and other tech to run away to Africa.

Real outlier. 4. A supermarket job during high school. Then 3 after university the longest being nearly 10years straight. Finished that to help support my partners job and looking at a short break and then job searching.

I fucking proposed a uneven vote swap ages ago. These briefcase nerds are copying me.

Except I though it would be funny to get dozens of people to vote swap with your one swing vote.

Like the one thing Michael Parenti and Murray Bookchin could agree on was how much of a sellout Bernie was.
