But they don’t get to point their nose at me or anyone.

Sam, you sound jealous that somebody else can use snark.

It does seem odd that another word was needed when ‘Latin’ is explicitly genderless and everybody-encompassing. There may very well be some more nuance to it that I’m missing, of course.

From what I’ve read lately, Latinx is pretty much over and done with. Thankfully. 

“But Latin men/women didn’t exist in a game in fantasy made by a Japanese Company!” said the Internet.

“The Democratic Party doesn’t represent anything that I think, and neither does the Republican Party *right now* ...”

True, but usually when people like Costner say the Democrats suck, it’s not for the reasons they actually suck.

Sigh.

“I was drawn to her as she has the exact same facial expression as the audience at SNL whenever they see me perform.”

I hate Pete Davidson for 2 reasons:

Are you equating the time the ink dried on the divorce papers to the time the marriage was over? Because hoooo boy, those are most definitely NOT the same thing.

Third-wave feminism leaned into being hot and/or sexy as a power. The current generation of young women seems to see beauty, particularly being well-endowed, as exclusively a curse (also see Milana Vayntrub). I assume social media is the root cause of that.

I interpret the scene as “no, you’re wrong” to any Star Wars fan who wanted Luke to strike down the emperor in RotJ.

Yeah, we didn’t get very far into TLJ before seeing that this guy was just the Emperor all over again, which is about all we could’ve guessed from the first movie anyway. No tears for Snoke, get out of the way.

Weird how people always frame this as the fault of the guy who killed him off in the second movie, and not the guy who failed to characterize him in the first.

And my contention is: no he couldn’t have been, because he was just a generic Palpatine clone from the start (quite literally, as it turns out in TRoS). Casually offing him in TLJ was one of Johnson’s better decisions.

Having seen the utter affection for the prequels from people who were kids when they came out, I wouldn’t be surprised to see they have a following ~10-15 years from now.

Yes, never before had Star Wars introduced such an intriguing, nuanced character as [GENERIC EVIL SITH GUY WITH A FUCKED UP FACE].

That character was a whole lotta nothing wrapped up in JJ Abrams’ mystery box; the most exciting thing that character did was die. I genuinely mean that; “what’s going to happen now that this guy is dead?” and “what does this mean for Kylo going forward?” were a lot more interesting story questions than “who is this…
