  1. The Four Seasons people are apolitical business owners that basically gave no thought to the consequences of allowing the press conference. This is so incredibly indicative of just how unplugged some people are to politics, its consequences, and how people don't vet politicians when they give them their support while still maintaining 'apolitical.'
  2. Much like Spanish. But for real, singular they is not a big deal. We should use that more because it's neat and clean and a decent starting point if someone's presentation isn't clear. Also, we can just call people by their names.
  3. This video is pretty wild. This guy is very very pissed off at the threats and stuff aimed at GA election workers and trying to articulate it. He calls out Trump a few times and blames him in part. Which is true. But it all just feels so... useless. All he has is the power of his voice and this microphone.
  4. Oh, are we dunking on mclumber? Registered Professional Engineer in the state of Tennessee here. Me and my work colleagues routinely use the phrase "late-stage capitalism."
  5. As a person who lives in a place with actual good BBQ, I have never had a McRib and have no idea what the obsession is about. Eat real food.
  6. The only litmus test for being a millennial is A) you remember and were at least aware of what was happening on 9/11, and B) you didn't have internet as a kid, but you got it while you grew up.
  7. Just a thought: We're getting another season of Gallery after this and they're sure to go into the casting of Ahsoka and the preparation Rosario Dawson did. It might be that all of the prep we say didn't happen might just have happened. Or, it might be that the mocap lady that did Ahsoka for Clone Wars Season 7 wasn't available.
  8. HIGHLY recommend you go back and watch Rebels. It's great at expanding the story of the Rebellion.
  9. Safety efforts in racing have progressed an insane amount, but it has come at the cost of dozens of lives. Grosjean surviving and walking away from a crash that 5 years ago would have murdered any driver is chiefly due to A) the cockpit halo, B) crash barrier advancement, C) good safety practices during the race by support workers, and D) fireproof suits.
  10. Yeah, that's the disappointing part. That we don't tackle this national problem on a national level. And Biden is just A-OK with it.
  11. I'm content to have the origins of Yoda's species a mystery. It's not something we need to know and one of those elements that nerds will obsess over and end up ruining the magic of the mystery.
  12. Rebels is wonderful storytelling. There are a few eps that are pretty kiddy, but it gets into some really dramatic stuff. I think you'll enjoy it.
  13. When I'm naming things I go through a long list and say them out loud just to make sure they sound A) in keeping with the thing I'm naming, and B) not stupid. Grogu doesn't sound stupid to me.
  14. Dawson was perfect for a mature Ahsoka. I miss Ashley Eckstein's voice, but she's like 5 feet tall, so she absolutely wouldn't have worked in terms of acting as Ahsoka in live action.
  15. After the season is over, I'll probably binge the first two seasons to take it all in again. I recommended a buddy of mine watch it--he's been meaning to, just hasn't gotten around to it. But before he does, I said he should watch all 4 seasons of Rebels. Personally, I think Mandalorian becomes more rich in detail and depth if you have the knowledge of Rebels. It can be appreciated more, but it can clearly standalone. I am genuinely excited and feel like whatever happens next will be a complete surprise.
