C3-PO says “Hi” or more specifically, “Hello Sailor”

Well, apart from Anakin, Leia and Han (and the goggle-eyed tiny alien from the latest one) isn’t everyone in Star Wars pretty much asexual?

Isn’t that the best place to send them? Only listening to opinions you already agree with is an echo chamber where no-one actually develops or grows but merely become further entrenched in the same thought patterns.

If this year’s anything to go by, I’d book tickets sooner rather than later.

The Hague. The same place we try all War Criminals. We’ve tried far more dangerous individuals there before. We’ve tried people who’ve committed worse crimes there before.

Obama and Halle Berry have pretty dark skin.

I’m in an interracial marriage (White as snow/Asian). It is something I’m aware of, but more from a cultural perspective. My wife is from China and only moved here in her early twenties.

Really? Not Native American women? Well done at winning the oppression Olympics, I guess.

At a certain point, even if someone’s just pretending, if they’re pretending long enough and well enough... isn’t that the same thing?

You’re right, how could I have missed it, those unemployed coal miners in Kentucky are living like kings. And lay off the cussing, you’re the only person dragging the discourse down here. Weren’t you taught to behave civilly?

Tangentially related:

I honestly think there’s a surfeit of cynicism when it comes to people’s viewpoints of other demographics. There’s far more variation within groups than between them. I think most 30 year old men have a pretty fair grasp of women’s issues. Perhaps not to the an understanding of micro-aggressions, intersectionalism…

240 years, surely?

Good link

Fair enough. I’m not US-ian myself. I only know Appalachia from the photo-journals I’ve seen of some of the rural villages.

This is a great description of the process of disenfranchisement of the working class in the UK.

Well, it’s sure as shit your problem 9 months later if you don’t...
