BORING: Assigning "levels of canon" to Star Wars media.
NOT BORING: Construing all Star Wars media as variously motivated propaganda which actually exists in some notional Star Wars universe, often only tenuously related to real events, and loudly speculating about what "really happened".

In retrospect, maybe the Bible should have explicitly prohibited cannibalism. Kind of a weird oversight, especially with Jesus saying, “Eat of my flesh.”
That sends mixed messages.

When I was in high school I knew a girl who thought Egypt was pronounced “egg-yipped,” and I still hear it that way in my head.
That’s how they get you.

Poison swamps are of course a classic, and cursed swamps have their place, but I kind of want swamps for all of the other random status ailments that pop up in console RPGs. I want to see the swamp where touching the water turns you into an atheist.

I get sad when I see sun dried tomatoes on examples of cringe "dated" food trends because it's got to be one of the best tomato innovations in tomato history.

People say our generation is too wrapped up in nostalgia, but let me remind you we once made a show called “I love the 90s" that we loved and connected with it made us FEEL something, and that very show was produced four (4) years after the 90s ended so yeah great call I guess

The reactionary mind is incredibly neurotic about both being stolen from and being laughed at and that's part of why they're so consumed with anxieties about welfare cheats, fake refugees, fake disabled kids, etc. It's like an asexual version of their cucking anxiety.

I haven’t seen anyone else masking in this terminal. Not a one.
Of all the places in the world to mask up, airports/airplanes are right up there at the top after hospitals.

Traveling with a CGM is such a hassle. Had to wait ages for someone to be available for a pat-down, and they always seem a mortified about how invasive it is.

How about we worry less, as a society, about whether individuals might be cheating to get a disability accommodation or some help buying food, and more about whether extremely wealthy people and corporations are paying their fair share of taxes?

I don't post too much about my personal life because I'm committed to the Mothman bit, but I'm getting married in two weeks and simply vibrating out of my skin.

I respect everyone's personal favorite song choices from KPop Demon Hunters — how are they all so good? — but I'll admit I'm confused whenever it's not "What It Sounds Like".
