Re: Fuck everything

[(Anonymous)]

That is an impossible task, sir and/or madam.

[(Anonymous)]

Wait, whose brand in San Hellerson?

Re: Fuck everything

[(Anonymous)]

I mean you can try.

I'm very aware of the many Problems (TM) of The Handmaid's Tale, but for whatever reason it hits something deeply cathartic for me, so I'm more than happy to continue watching it in my own little bubble.

Animal supervision is very important. Our supervisors must be aware of everything we're doing at all times so they can make sure we are doing it right. I for one don't function well without my supervisor.

I admit that for awhile I had to close one of mine in the bedroom because rather than supervising he took advantage of my hands being busy to knock over the food container in the hallway. ;)

they also dropped increasingly large ice cubes into the ocean every now and then, thus solving the problem once and for all

I had to google "red diaper baby". I still... cannot make head or tail of this secret.

As best I can determine, OP (a) claims to have grown up in a left-wing environment (b) actually grew up in a conservative environment (c) knows who Florence King is because of growing up in a conservative environment (d) doesn't want to talk about Florence King for fear of revealing that they grew up in a conservative environment

Why they would lie about this in the first place.... I don't think anyone knows.

If you don't understand that Alderaan was chosen as a target specifically because it was Leia's, then you're far too stupid for your opinion to be taken seriously. Feel free to keep writing essays in the comments though.

same hat! i'm mostly a horus heresy kinda bitch, there is just something about watching the entire horror unfold.

I said this in response to the secret thread but he's quite literally not forcing anyone to get anything as these books will eventually be available for purchase like his other books. And he doesn't say anything in that kickstarter about looking good by cutting out publishers, just that its easier to set his prices for bundles and ~swag boxes.

I'll also say that the ebooks are $40 total, and that's how much you'd have to pay for some of his ebooks now, and his premium hardcover (faux leather I guess) is $40 each which is also not a crazy price and in line with his other books so I'll admit I don't get your embarrassment or what's not a good look.

[(Anonymous)]

why are being so bitchy over someone's star wars opinions...

[(Anonymous)]

I mostly just like it because I trust Sanderson to actually finish his shit and the ebook pack is cheaper than purchasing them as they come out lmao

Oh, nice.

No, it was chosen because it was Leia's, but it was chosen because it was Leia's because she was the rebel they had. If Bail, who was also a rebel, had fallen into their hands, it would have been destroyed because it was his. They just needed a high-profile planet that they had an excuse to target.

The Empire was always going to destroy a planet to demoralise the rebels as soon as the Death Star was operational. Okay, if there never was an Anakin and therefore never was a Leia, maybe it wouldn't have been Alderaan specifically, but that only means it would have been a different planet, not that no planet would have died.

And it could still have been Alderaan, because it could still have been Bail's daughter, because in a universe where he and Breha didn't get handed a baby by Obi-Wan, they might still have adopted the daughter they'd always wanted somewhere else. And since Bail was always a rebel at heart, this theoretical daughter likely would be too, and we could have wound up in exactly the same place.

Alderaan was not Leia's fault, nor directly Anakin's. It was Tarkin's and, further back, Sidious and his Empire's.

I'm not sure why you seem to think that Anakin/Vader was the cause of all the evil in the Star Wars universe. I mean, he is evil, but he's not the start or main driving force of anything. If you wanted to go back in time and save the Star Wars universe by killing someone, you wouldn't do it by killing him, you'd do it by killing Sidious. Preferably before he caught wind of Sifo Dyas and Kamino, and likely before he got anywhere near the Senate. I mean, if you hate Anakin on a personal level as much as you clearly do, and you want to kill him while you're there, by all means murder him in passing while you've got the chance, but if he's the only person you go back in time to kill, you save nothing. Because Anakin isn't the root cause of anything.

Leia was a problem because she was following in her adopted father's footsteps. If she wasn't around, Alderaan would still have been a prime target because Bail Orgaana pissed off the Emperor.

*buys you a tanker truck's worth of lube*

Good luck, I guess. Remember to stay hydrated.

It's interesting to me just as an indicator of how weird the publishing market is, or I guess more accurately, how weird the self-funding process is compared to traditional financing models and how it seems like it's just obviously going to take over from the existing model for a lot of already-established creators with large nerd fan followings.

You look at the mainstream publishing model on the one hand, and then you look at the number of people who are actively enthusiastic about paying Sanderson hundreds or thousands of dollars on the other, and it just feels like these things do not add up.

Maybe you need a nap

Haha. We've had to start hiding treats inside multiple bags and then behind things in the cabinet. My kitty has several times gotten into the closet and then into the bag. If they aren't packed up tight and she can smell the treats, she will get to them.

[(Anonymous)]

Yes, this is literally true in a boring way (Anakin without Sidious doesn't become Vader) but it doesn't mean anything about the Jedi not falling or balance in the Force or the rest of it. Say Anakin never meets Padme (or she is killed in the battle for Naboo and never gets back to Tatooine), that's no guarantee he doesn't meet somebody else and have Force-sensitive kids with them. Luke and Leia might have got a lot from Padme, but not the Jedi part.

I like watching a lot of 'trashy' anime and the few my friend has seen always leads to her talking about whatever went down on twitter or pointing out what's problematic, which gets tiring after a while (although having nothing to do with My Hero Academia has made it fun to listen to her very angry opinions about it).

[(Anonymous)]

Lmao is because every damn country that takes a superior attitude has perpetrated some major fucking horrors in its history, and most of them have not really indicated much remorse about it, so it's ludicrous that y'all like to pretend you're morally superior to the US. Also, stop pretending that you think this was a jab at Ukraine because I think you know it wasn't

[(Anonymous)]

AYRT
That doesn't mean that I or anyone else has heard of him before.
