@MichaelFKane Listen I just think it's nice to have some clones who overcome their conditioning and choose to let their Jedi go, some who follow the orders without question, and some like Bacara or Neyo who are one breath short of saying "fucking finally" despite being ARCs and v independent

Okay. I'll take some hate for this.
1. We were told in Ep II that the clones were engineered to be more docile and obedient.
2. Which means even pre Clone Wars show those Clones probably didn't 'really' have a choice in order 66. The cards were stacked against them.
3. That doesn't make the BF 2 monologue any less compelling. Temuera understood the assignment and absolutely kills it with that performance, but it is worth keeping in mind that they may not have entirely been moral free agents in the sense a normal human is.
4. The Clone Wars shifts the narrative on the Clones to make them a part of the overall tragic tapestry of the prequels. Like nearly everyone else, the clones were victims of his schemes, probably more than other group. They ARE portrayed as moral free agents that have their agency stripped from them.
5. All this is to say is that, really, both versions of the story work well for very different reasons.

This shows how the original clone wars writing in the early to mid 2000s was way better than Dave Filoni's version.

@EckhartsLadder Why would they give the 14 year old noticeably bigger books in the tube top as well. This whole thing really rubs me the wrong way, man. How many people did this get past to be greenlit

@CaptainCons A lot of people express discomfort in "if you wanna come" vs a sentiment like "I want you to be there"

@words_salad Cinta's death was maybe my favourite in the show. It was completely needless, in the way that so many deaths are. You can be fiercely competent and still lose your life to something completely out of your control.

@Cynthegm @pancane @iDavey Come on man you can't ask people to have media literacy in 2026. It's only about the surface level stuff, never look deeper.
It's actually deeply depressing that most people I see talking about the pieces of fiction I enjoy are genuine dumbasses incapable of seeing subtext

Y'all did NOT pay attention to anything y'all claim to watch.
Lightning was rare, yes. But not so rare where only 3 people out of the billions of humans could do it. Furthermore, the knowledge of how to properly generate lightning was no longer hoarded by the Fire Nation royalty and semenated to those who wanted to learn. It was STILL a rare skill, in the grand scheme.
The BIGGEST misconception is that because you see tens of people, maybe even a hundred, generating lightning, that you assume the entire world knows how to. Even if 100 people knew how to generate lightning, it would still be rare as that's 100 out of the entire world population.
Furthermore, that power plant is ONLY in Republic City. It exists nowhere else, implying that it still is a specialized skill.

bending evolving is cool but this is a form that makes no sense to become so common lightningbending requires separating positive and negative energy, and at the moment they crash back together you guide it Iroh himself said only a select few could this

@Hereward99 @pancane @iDavey Damn 😂😭 you're right it really do be like that. Art imitates life imitates art etc

@iDavey if its so specialized, why wasnt mako earning more money? korra showed that lightning is so common that people spend their day in a power plant to earn almost nothing

@RioStaysTrue 30 hours for a response just to not get your tickets is not "out of their way", by the by. We've gotta stop bootlicking corporations when they deign to throw us the barest of bones, it's embarrassing

Just want to give a quick update here because there’s too much to type:
After a long 30 hour wait, StubHub did eventually reach out to help fix the situation. Unfortunately my tickets were indeed gone and no comparable tickets were available, but they did try to fix everything they could. Their executive support was very helpful.
Shoutout to @Ticketmaster for going out of their way and providing us with backup tickets, it was extremely generous and very appreciated 🙏
Rio@RioStaysTrue
I am currently being scammed for $3,300 while using @StubHub @TeamStubHub for tickets. I bought my father (life-long Flyers fan) tickets to a SUITE for $3,300 for his birthday for Game Four this Saturday (tomorrow). The tickets were purchased Wednesday (prior to Game Three) and then subsequently transferred into my StubHub account, added to my apple wallet and available in Ticketmaster app (I have screen recordings of everything). After the Flyers won game 3, tickets for Saturday in the same suite as mine skyrocketed to $2,000 a piece (I bought ours for $1,000 each). I immediately knew what was going to happen next. I got a notification Thursday afternoon saying my tickets had been added to a new apple wallet. The seller had transferred the tickets out of my possession to presumably re-sell them for more. I have now lost access to my tickets via StubHub, TicketMaster AND apple wallet. In calling customer support, they confirmed the seller had transferred the tickets back and told me they have given the seller 24 hours to return the tickets. The problem? The game is in 26 hours. I’m supposed to wait 24 hours to see if the person who scams me gives me my tickets back? I was told this is a “protocol” and they cannot break the protocol. They also added that we would get comparable tickets or a refund within 24-48 hours if the tickets were never transferred back. The seller is on the west coast, which puts this time frame AFTER the game starts. Again, this was described as a protocol that cannot be broken. I asked if we could just fast track the comparable ticket protocol and get new seats now instead of waiting to see if the person who scammed us gives our tickets back in 24 hours, in which again I was told isn’t possible because of the protocol. The most likely outcome of resolution based off StubHubs’ protocol is going to be waiting 24 hours to see if the person who scammed me for $3,300 gives me the tickets back (which probably won’t happen as the tickets most likely have been already re-sold) and then given their protocol timeframe, we will only be able to get a refund as the game will have already started, so we cannot get comparable tickets. I tried reaching out via DMs and replies in which they HID my reply under their post (see screenshot). I am beyond disappointed in the way this situation is being handled. I hope this can be resolved and my parents can enjoy a @NHLFlyers playoff game.

@jayathesensei The servers were so fucking shit there's a whole Rage Quit episode on Resistance 3 where the game was just updating for an hour. When I went to go play black ops with my buddy and he had an update, we fucked off to the park for an hour and a half bc we knew we had the time to

@chickmagnet6000 10c outside is relatively warm, especially for late winter early spring. 10c inside??? Is psychopath behaviour and should be punishable by death???? Most ACs doent even go that low how the fuck did they do that??????

@milmilksss — but that is only because there is a fragment of her uncorrected angelic soul in her sword that she has to accept back into her, not because of anything else. She is still capital E evil. Less so than other devils, surely, but an arch devil nonetheless
English
@milmilksss You keep mentioning that Zariel isn't that evil because she's lawful evil and not a sadist. All devils are lawful evil - that's their whole thing. In Decent into Avernus, there is a very slim chance of redeeming Zariel —

what did Gortash trade Karlach for? is it the engines? also, why was Karlach with Gortash to begin with? what was she doing with him? also, i was under the impression Zariel wasn't incredibly evil, so why did she do that to Karlachs heart?

@KrisLAG1 @timAcatsoftpaws Oh thats a fantastic narrative choice 👀 Yeah okay definitely going to catch up on that soon

Ahsoka is like top 5 duelists in the clone wars era come on man
English
@khalgriffo @timAcatsoftpaws Yes of course, why consider the original introduction and portrayal of the character. That grievous, or the grievous stated to have slaughtered Jedi in the Geonosis catacombs is not the same character that couldn't kill a 13 year old on multiple occasions

@Cynthegm @timAcatsoftpaws Bro you can't make an argument using an entirely different timeline with different power scales 🤣
