You can’t be poor and help the poor. Truly, the stories of Jesus helping the poor and sick and rolling through Jerusalem in his escalade with the spinners inspire me.

Dear “Free Market”,

Like, from a technical standpoint, it’s rather clever; but the combination of hard-to-replace batteries and ecosystem lock-in and never actually telling anyone that their phones do this makes it a colossally douchey move. I’m once again thrilled to humblebrag that I never liked Apple anyway, etc.

Hypocriticus 3:18 - Verily, verily I say unto you: Fuck bitches, get money.

“You can’t help the poor and be poor, it makes no sense.”

“You can’t do good and be poor at the same time,” Millender testified. “You can’t help the poor and be poor, it makes no sense.”

The tag “SCAMMING IN THE NAME OF THE LORD” needs way more entries...

“You can’t do good and be poor at the same time,” Millender testified.

I take your point, and it’s a decent one. I’m just personally sick of all of this talk about the HUSTLE. You gotta HUSTLE, bro! Get out there and CRUSH IT! How about no? How about I get paid reasonable money for a reasonable workload and you can go out there and CRUSH IT all you like? I know having a life is very last…

If this guy had been anyone other than the CEO of Ticketmaster nobody would have batted at an eye at his tweet.

Jesus was from the Middle East, so shouldn’t He be portrayed with darker skin?

I’m just sad for all those perfectly lovely sex workers out here minding their own and had to be associated with these two chuckleheads.

Except they haven’t tried to make the galaxy big in this new trilogy. There was never a sense that either the Resistance or the First Order are fighting over thousands of planets. Look at the scale of this movie. The First Order, terror of the galaxy, has this one fleet. The Resistance is down to a few hundred people.…

But there are only three generations of Skywalkers. It’s not like they’re a hereditary monarchy. They’re not House Targeryn. Not to mention the fact that Anakin was a nobody. And they’ve already established that there are other Force users in the galaxy. And Palpatine didn’t come from a special family and he took over…

The biggest difference to me is that it one situation sounds a little too close to racial supremacy while the other is more like plain old fortune.

As long as you have high levels of Midi Chlorians you can be a Jedi. Its all about the Midi Chlorians

Right, but there’s a difference between “everyone could be special” and “only Skywalkers can be special”.

He had Rey enter with absolutely no backstory, had the force select her and push her into the story, and then had her receive strange visions upon picking up Anakin’s lightsaber in a movie series that has highly emphasized the Skywalker lineage up to this point. If that isn’t intentionally setting up a mystery what…

Yeah. There’s definitely a side of me that wanted her to join up with Kylo, but he was pretty clear that joining up with him meant starting a two-person galactic dictatorship. Not exactly “breaking the wheel.”
