Boba Fett being cool.

You’ve got to be kidding, LA’s transit system is brand new, serves the second-largest ridership in the country, and is opening two new lines this year and starting work on two more. SF has a lot to learn from the way LA has turned public transportation around.

May i ask why you dont want to use an adblock?

I’m getting real sick of these ads covering half the article, and don’t tell me to get adblock, I know about it, but there are reasons I don’t use it. If I’m willing to look at your goddamn ads, at least have the decency to let me read the content.

Agreed, but at the same time the entire selling his soul to the devil to resolve his problems is just... well insane (or sacrificing his true love). I mean he basically made a deal with the ultimate evil. (Also the entire “soul mates” is kind of questionable since that really depends on the writer at the time with…

You left out the page at the start where Stark is dictating terms to Thor regarding the state of Asgard. It just makes the beatdown even more deserved.

he’s essentially hacked their network so he can play with the lights

Are you trolling?

You’re right, we do need to think about the kind of world we’re creating and want to live in. Frankly, I think what he did is exactly what people ought to be doing. He noticed a security vulnerability and he reported it to the people who set up a flawed system. He didn’t screw around with people’s privacy, he didn’t…
