Re: [TV Series] Ahsoka Discussion Thread [Unmarked Spoilers!]
Here's a thought I had from watching the latest episode of Ahsoka. Thrawn's stranded in another Galaxy with no apparent way home and no knowledge of when home for a decade. He has (at least) the Chimera and her crew but no support structure. He might be able to build one, but to do so he'd need peop...

(Approximately 8,500 km east of Dalatyr, Early Summer 45 IA) Tamanota Hishatobe, third son of the Southern Shogun of the Empire of Higato; did not have an easy life. Privileged, yes. But not easy.

(Galthirith, Late Winter 43 IA) Galthirith was a land of serious winters; ocean currents spared the northernmost Drow State the extreme temperature drops of the Coldlands, but they were long and dark and wet.

Re: The "Philosophy" of "Technological Determinism"
The thing about Greed is that there is a practical point of human satiation.

Forget making the bed, you could sleep every night in a ne...

Re: We need to talk about Andor
The whole prison arc is seriously excellent storytelling that stands out. This is not to denigrate anything else in Andor, the heist arc, the ISB arc, Mon's arc, Starsgaard's arc and the riot on Ferrix are all great in their way.

Go see Turning Red
The Teaser Trailer, best no spoiler introduction to this movie
It's a Pixar movie about a Chinese-Canadian girl living in Toronto in 2002 who, when she gets worked up turns into a giant Red Panda*. It's really good. You should go see it.
*Incidentally one the best animals on earth.
