It's so counterintuitive and never helps me. If I'm searching for something in swedish I very specifically am looking for a Swedish context.

Star Wars: Squadrons was released 5 years ago today!

A wonderful game in VR. It's just a shame that the core of the game is the online mode, rather than a long - LONG - campaign like in the X-wing game series (1993-1999). Speaking of which...

I'll watch it of course and I'd love to be wrong. But... Yeah.

Acke @ackehallgren.bsky.social · 17d

Mando movie looks fun I guess, but it's so hard to muster up much excitement after season 3. The characters regressed so much, and I feel like nothing gets to evolve or develop. I was really hoping Grogu would perhaps be older, or somesuch. It does seem to be a very focused story, which is nice.

Classic Hazel W.

Acke @ackehallgren.bsky.social · 17d

Not my favorite movie but one I consider almost flawless. Also love how half of the exciting and tense scenes have nothing to do with dinosaurs.

Acke @ackehallgren.bsky.social · 17d

What movie do you consider "perfect"?

Jeez, that's sad for him. I'm sorry he went out of his way to be shit. And I hope the surgery goes flawlessly and beyond.

I'll merely note that today, like all days, is a great day to stop posting on Twitter, a platform whose owner force feeds this slop into people's brains with an algorithm designed to boost his views and trample yours.

Screenshot of Elon Musk tweet from shortly after Charlie Kirk was shot. Elon says "The Left is the party of murder" and is quote tweeting a post from Shaun Maguire that reads:

The Left lectured us for the last decade about the dangers of violence from the Right

From the assassination attempts of President Trump

To Brian Thompson, the United Healthcare CEO, being murdered

Now to Charlie Kirk

The danger was actually on the Left
