Accurate physics isn’t important to Star Wars. Hell, it’s not even important to Star Trek. Both are way over on the fantasy to hard science fiction spectrum. Star Trek has consistantly migrated towards the fantasy side since “The Cage”. Star Wars never cared about physics and that’s just fine. Complaining about the

For how long? Skin makes a perfectly ok pressure suit for a bit. However, you’d likley have some epic bloodshot eyes. Lack of oxygen is what would kill you and that takes at least a couple of minutes. Then you’d freeze or roast according to your proximity to a sun and exposure. And magic is pretty standard for this

“Consider Phlebas” is the ultimate deconstruction of the space opera. Guess what, inter-planetary war is really really awful. Glactic civilizations are likely to have terrifyingly powerful weapons. PTSD will still exist in advanced societies. War tends to bring out the worst in people.   

Umm folks, “due process” and “Presumption of innocence” are legal concepts that apply to  proceedings in American (USAian) courts.

We should hunt up Xenu and crash that party!

But a bit cruel, don’t you think?

never lusted after his sister..

I guess it depends on what you’re prepping for.

That old “bank robbers / suspended animation / opps didn’t think economic conditions might be different in the future” episode is pretty great. You don’t need to time travel to find out that a commodities value is dependant on it’s utility. Gold bugs just don’t get this. People selling gold futures on the internet

If they’re thinking about stockpiling and chemical sanitation, I don’t think they’re really taking the problem very seriously. What they should really be thinking about is reliable sources with enough capacity to do agriculture. Otherwise you’re just postponing the inevitable.

Like these folks?

MS-13 joined the suit because they didn’t want to be lumped together with a bunch of clowns.

Christ, that just made me realize I’m basically Luke before anything exciting happened to him. I spend my days wandering the desert fixing environmental sensors and irrigation systems. I’m Luke who never got off Tatooine, never met Ben....

Yep, mixed up my African place names.
