enjoy the omicron, everyone!

Came here to post this. It’s basically required reading in my org.

As Ashoka meditates, a familiar figure appears.

Though, if you have to have a postmortem after every major release, maybe those postmortems aren’t working as intended.

You know, I was going to ignore this, but some other idiot decided to lift you out of the greys, so here we go.

Violence from caregivers is just as prevalent here as it is there. More here (but it is still a huge problem in Japan because of their population decay and poor welfare systems) but it doesn’t make headlines because the media doesn’t really care about highlighting mental health and healthcare burdens, just political…

Ugh, save the “for the unvaccinated” crap for the right wing MAGA garbage websites. Unless this is turning into one of them... in which case I will change my bookmarks right this minute. 

Not many actors can just show up in a season finale as a previously unknown character, and just monologue for a majority of their time, and have it be captivating. I thought Jonathan Major was very good in Lovecraft Country, but his ability to carry the material here deeply impressed me. And everything he did from the…

If you exceed the grip of the tires, then the electric motor isn’t helping, and the thrusters will need to be even more powerful to make the car hit it’s goal.

Yes! The new layout for io9 is the worst. For me all the newest articles are the first box on the left, so its actually correct for me most of the time.

Obligatory FUCK this new website format. Change it back.

Also, police can just hold the phone up to your face or place you finger on it to access it without a court order.  That’s why I only use passcode.

The problem with these policies is, “Who decides what is political?” There’s a huge part of this country that would still think gay marriage is “political”, and would say that an LGBT person talking about their marriage would be “political”. 

I believe it was a coincidence. Mostly because of the inevitability.

I thought the show made it clear that Hex Vision didn’t transfer his memories, he just unlocked White Vision’s memories which were being supressed. That would include everything up until the moment he was killed by Thanos.

My theory is that the Helmet rule was something instituted after Mandalor was scourged. Like a custom for mourning.

In the flashback scenes to Din’s rescue by the Mandalorians from the Separatists, they all had the Death Watch sigil somewhere on their armor.

Yes, but I agree, it’s jarring since we saw Death Watch members (including Pre Vizsla himself) remove their helmets.  So the Children of the Watch are an extremist subset of Death Watch, which seems. . . excessive.

You gotta follow that up with Batman Beyond.  Underrated.
