Well, you could also always hear every explosion in space in this universe too. And time moves at the same pace for everyone in the galaxy whether you’re in hyperspace or not. And its actually possible to travel many times the speed of light. And asteroid fields are impossibly dense. And the Falcon and Tie Fighters…

Only if we actually get the explanation, which I’ll put money down that we won’t.

Kylo gave a huge speech right before that about how torn he feels between light and dark. It’s such an important aspect of his character that I just can’t believe it’s already been resolved. He seems like he’s going to have a more fleshed out arc than your average Star Wars villain.

They did do that. Han is asks how she could possibly have it and her only response is that its a story for another time, essentially saying “don’t worry about it, its just a movie.

Kylo also had a pretty severe blaster wound handicapping him and was emotionally stressed from just killing his father and it not giving him the clarity of purpose he thought it would. Luke would have been fighting a Vader at the height of his power and in complete control of the situation. Luke, with no formal…

Well, no. Spoon Kid was in training. If anything, Rey is Neo: able to surpass everyone by the end of the movie. The normal rules don’t apply to the destined hero, just as they didn’t with Luke. Yoda straight up gives us a list of reasons why Luke shouldn’t be able to do what he ends up doing.

Oh man, Maz having Luke’s sabre was one of the best lampshades I’ve ever seen. I actually hope they never explain that.

To be fair to the First Order, the shield they added to Death Star 3.0 should have been a pretty air tight deterrent against that type of attack. The reason the Millennium Falcon was able to penetrate their defenses at all was that Han Solo is the only person suicidally stupid enough to try to come out of hyperspace…

I think the creepiness is kind of the point? I mean, what’s worse: squicking some people out with goofball infantilization, or something like the Baby One More Time video that literally begins with a creepshot up a bunch of school girl’s skirts?

Ever since AGDQ this past year, I’ve had a wicked addiction to Tetris: The Grandmaster 2 on MAME. Once you get past the perception that its just too hard, the sped up gameplay loop is perfect. My favorite moment in Tetris is getting deep in the zone and just barely keeping up with the speed of the game. The…

I think it’s more like Daleks are up front about what they are. Hating a Dalek for exterminating is like hating the tornado that hits your house. The Time Lords on the other hand seem to play both Benevolent God and Tyrannical Dictator based on petty politics and Rasilon’s mood. And why? Because they got time travel…

The Zygon story was actually my highlight this season. Coleman playing heel, Capaldi giving the monologue of the season, Kate Stewart and Osgood being badasses. I don’t see the validity in comparing it to the Smith Silurian story since that was a direct homage to the original Pertwee Silurian story anyway. It’s an…

There is a line in Heaven Sent that implies that, on some level, when each incarnation figures out the solution, they remember the time spent in the confession dial. It’s during one of the Tardis sequences, right after he gets the “BIRD” clue. It’s a bit ambiguous, but I prefer to think that the Doctor still feels the…

A lot gets said about the powerful orgasms that are possible, but there’s plenty of more subtle reasons to at least give anal play a chance. It’s a slower build and you end up finding aspects of pleasure beyond just friction on your dick, like fullness, tension vs relaxation, and yea the prostate has it’s own set of…

Using a transgender person’s pre-transition name. Look, there’s no reason you should take my word for this. Here’s a relevant article from a transgender writer explaining why it’s a bad thing to do. http://fusion.net/story/144324/w…

I know you’re being piled on right now, but listen to what we’re saying. Even if you’re not meaning anything harmful by it, even if you’re talking about celebrities with very public lives, it’s really not good to make a habit of deadnaming transgender people. I know it’s no fun when it seems like people are policing…

I’m relieved the show sounds pretty good. It was so hard to get a read on the marketing on this one. I’m a little surprised they didn’t just rewrite the lore to erase Superman altogether and have Kara be the sole Kryptonian on Earth.

No, you’re really not being respectful. You’re making ASSUMPTIONS about the lives of transgender people and asserting them as fact, while misgendering and dead naming them. Take the mistake gracefully, apologize and fuck off.

Nicotine is addictive, yes. It’s also the thing in cigarettes that carries a good feeling buzz, cuts appetite, etc. Vaping gets you that without the smoke, the smell, and the social stigma.

All the people you knew didn’t have their entire public image and identity carefully curated by the Disney corporation until they were old enough to smoke and drink legally.
