I’m a Star Wars and other media fan who’s a Leftist—but with a twist! I also hate Nebraska and want Iowa to annex Omaha.

@LauraRbnsn @IanNelsonMills Is still haven’t seen it, which again is crazy as someone raised evangelical as well
English
I saw this movie wildly late in life for someone raised evangelical (my parents were NOT happy at the fact that youth group kids were watching it). So I saw it in my late 20s for a class with @IanNelsonMills and my husband.
It remains one of the strangest film experiences of my

This Easter let’s all remember the scene in THE PASSION OF THE CHRIST where Jesus invents the dining table

@zweiwalker89607 They are really fun books. I loved that the Solo movie referenced them, it was fun knowing that they put that level of a mention on it.
English
I got a physical volume of the Lando Adventures and I feel like I should revisit these

@zweiwalker89607 You can’t truly love Star Wars if you do not truly hate Star Wars
English
You don't hate Star Wars enough. You think you do but you don't.

@Major_Ferret @tonyannett I’m familiar with the many ways Trump is viewed. I would agree by traditional far right evangelical standards he himself is not as far right as they would like. The people around him are more ideologically committed to the far right. He mostly has an ego
English
@jaredfour4 @tonyannett You might be surprised to learn that Trump isn't even remotely far right.

Prediction: none of these three will be the next president.

The three most likely people to be next US President are all Roman Catholics.

@Manga_Kamen Gen 2 is one of my favorites, and everything in Smith’s videos are true, and Legacy Crystal is a great improvement. It’s okay to love something that’s not perfect
English
Johto as a region and the gen two games have plenty of issues
To act like they don’t is super weird to me
Time to dust off the Johto script

@CorenLaVolpe As a Johto lover, it’s impossible to watch these videos and not see the absolute passion for Gen II Smith has. His criticisms are like that of a parody show which expertly roasts its source material in a way that only true die hard fans could. These videos come from deep love.
English
If you watched the videos you'd see Smith's criticisms are all valid, he's a huge fan of Johto and approached it from a good faith game design perspective.
He even led a project where all the major problems with the games are fixed while still trying to feel like a vanilla game, not a rom hack. Once you play Crystal Legacy, you won't wanna play the original version. It's a love letter.
Growing up is realizing that most pokemon games are not very good and have at least one or two major issues affect the quality of the experience. Wanting them to be better and having the resources to improve them is pretty awesome, actually.

@Hezbolsonaro The main issue with Stannis is that almost no one likes him or is willing to die for him. Religious minded hate his conversion, old guard hate Baratheons anyways, court intrigue people hate him not playing the game, the North is for the Starks, and he's too drab for commoners
English
I'm admittedly not steeped in ASOIAF lore but surely Stannis' rightful claim to the throne is deeply undermined by him being in thrall to a foreign priestess who practices blood magic and human sacrifice? That seems more important to worry about than the line of succession.
Ned Stark@FantasyWorldW1
Stannis gave him a pretty good deal as well

@SikhFeminist I've voted "Blue No Matter Who" for 3 election cycles. I'm done. Dems have to earn my vote, and it isn't even that hard to earn. My standards are not high, and yet the DNC seems to be doing everything they can to slide under those standards.
English
Same. Gavin will lose just like Kamala did. That's a promise. Dems can't win without us.
Who is us? Good people.

@suchnerve It's possible for all characters in a story to be villains, one of the most famous examples is The Godfather. There are no heroes in that story (at least not by the end). These words come with lots subtilty depending on how they're used. Many of the greatest stories lean on that.
English
@suchnerve A big lesson a lot of people need to learn in media literacy is that "hero" is not the same as "protagonist" and "villain" is not the same as "antagonist". Hero and Villain are moral judgements. Protagonist and Antagonist are storytelling devices.
English
Bleak as hell to see people keep insisting that a character can only be a villain if their malice isn’t justified.
A villain is a character whose primary motives are harmful. The categorization applies regardless of how deserved the harm may be.
Vivian@suchnerve
“Janis was the actual villain of ‘Mean Girls’!” when in reality the entire point of the movie is that ALL the girl students are villains to each other. That’s why it’s called “Mean Girls.” It’s lateral misogyny, and the character development is learning to be kind to other girls.
English
@pocketgh0ul Yes, most men do I believe. Singing I think can be a really common one to hear a voice that you find attractive, also I know I've had a few voice actors in games or anime that I've heard that got my attention.
English
Any men wanna weigh in on this? Have you ever been super attracted to a woman's voice?
🤔
Bella@BellaBaddie__
Do men find women’s voices attractive the way we do with them lol
English
@zweiwalker89607 Excuse me, if I like something then I clearly must compare it to everything else and let people know how everything else that I don't love SUCKS and is bad and people should feel bad for liking it.
If that isn't true, how do you explain THIS: *points to yrs of SW discourse*
English
You guys know I'm like a straight up zealot for DS Era Pokémon and not a big fan of where the series is currently at but I get the feeling that some people have forgotten that they can praise the DS games without shitting on the 3D ones.

@zweiwalker89607 As a former hardline Evangelical, I can assure the "Thinking" Atheist that this post would have given me no seconds of pause about my deeply held religious convictions. In fact, my response would actually be the same as it is today: an exasperated eye roll.
English
I feel like if you call your account "the thinking atheist", assuming you are being genuine about your mission here, you kind of have an obligation not to post slop like this that can easily be torn apart by anyone with half a brain.

Nope. If you are complaining about Samuel L. Jackson's Nick Fury. You are just racist. Like that is one of the best castings in the MCU.

National Security Adviser, Deputy FBI director, DHS Head, and Attorney General have all been removed this term.
If I had to imagine who would be next, its either going to be Kash Patel, who I think is the most likely, or Pete Hegseth.

On the short ride in “The Beast” to the Supreme Court yesterday, Trump told Bondi she was being removed from her job. “I think it’s time,” he told her during the drive. "Later, Bondi would ask Trump if she could keep her job until the summer. The president declined." Read @jdawsey1 @learyreports @cryanbarber @sgurman wsj.com/politics/polic…

@ItsJuliansRum He's doing almost everything that we knew he would do and what he said he would do. This is the consequences of "America First" policies, it puts America last. But it's what people like Theo wanted.

Yea exactly that’s why he’s pissed. It’s why we’re all pissed.
We thought we voted for America First but we got more of the same bullshit.

@CHARLOT21755647 This is maybe the single greatest endings to an episode ever done and has the emotional hit of a semi slamming into you at full speed. It's was so uncomfortable and unnerving and I loved it. I felt like they gave me so many of the feelings she was feeling at that moment.
English
I’d even add that the music enhances the emotional impact. It’s so shockingly unexpected, just like Brasso’s death has impacted his friends, and the way the tune just circles round and round completely fits Mon’s devastated mania.
Cassian Andor@cassjeron
Acho que nunca vou superar a catarse que foi o final desse episódio. O colapso simultâneo de vários mundos pessoais... A edição cruzando todas essas histórias... A música quase em contraponto e ainda assim sem anular o peso emocional da cena. Simplesmente fantástico

@MaceAhWindu I sent this to my friend who also is both a massive CK3 fan and Invincible fan and we both loved it.
