"The Art of Star Wars The Acolyte" Written by Kristin Baver Foreword by Leslye Headland

Things are always better with a new Star Wars book to enjoy. Picked up "The Art of The Acolyte" by @kristinbaver.bsky.social today. Can’t wait to dive in, nerd out, and revisit the series all over again!

Happy Groundhog Day!

Random acts of insurrection are occurring constantly throughout the galaxy. There are whole armies, battalions that have no idea that they’ve already enlisted in the cause. Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Opening of "Star Wars: The Clone Wars: Duchess of Mandalore" (season 2, episode 14) – “In war, truth is the first casualty.”

Opening of "Star Wars: The Clone Wars: The Academy" (season 3, episode 6) – “Those who enforce the law must obey the law.”

Opening of "Star Wars: The Clone Wars: Tipping Points" (season 5, episode 5) – “Disobedience is a demand for change.”

Opening of "Star Wars: The Clone Wars: Blue Shadow Virus" (season 1, episode 17) – “Fear is a disease; hope is it's only cure.”

Clone Wars episodes pack more wisdom in the first 10 seconds than some shows include in an entire season.

Rebel loon design quickly becoming popular request at Twin Cities tattoo parlors A tattoo design inspired by Minnesota's state bird and the Rebel Alliance symbol from "Star Wars" is appearing on arms and legs across the Twin Cities, as some residents turn to art to express solidar...

"We are not alone. In every corner of the galaxy the downtrodden and oppressed know our symbol and they put their hope in it. We are the spark that will ignite the fire that will restore the Republic."

Ah yes, remember in Star Wars when the Rebels defeated the Empire by building their own Death Star?

He would know all about that kind of thing. He had his own ear shot.

Trump is just using these brownshirt goons as his personal secret police now. This has nothing to do with immigration—other legitimate agencies can handle security at the Olympics. It’s pure signaling, meant to further empower an agency with a toxic culture, rotten ethics, and contempt for the law.

BREAKING: First Order officials are reportedly worried that, if the New Republic requires stormtroopers to remove their helmets, 75% of troopers will quit rather than be ostracised by the rest of the galaxy.

In lieu of posting a relevant and beautiful Andor quote, I'll just say this... fuck ICE!

Dude watched the first VHS tape and thought he'd seen the whole James Cameron movie.

Rose Byrne now joins Natalie Portman, Keira Knightley, Sofia Coppola, and Keisha Castle-Hughes as the fifth Naboo Queen or Royal Handmaiden nominated for an Academy Award.

I'd actually trust a bunch of 6th grade boys to run the country with more civility, dignity and intelligence than this current administration of ghouls and trolls.

That's not a "meme." Memes are images or formats that are remixed, copied, and circulated as part of a shared cultural experience. The word they’re looking for here is propaganda. Propaganda is information manipulated to mislead, influence, or trivialize. This government is being run by dumb trolls.

Fox News right now reporting on "the continued and inexplicable resistance to Imperial norms."

Fudge the Empire!

The Star Wars episode of "The Muppet Show" is set during the original trilogy era, so now if Disney needs a home for any old MuppetVision 3D stuff or new "Pigs in Space" stuff, Galaxy’s Edge is right there. Just saying.

Fudge the Empire!

Happy Birthday!!! 🎉

So sorry for your loss, Brian. My deepest condolences to you and all who knew her. 🖤

ICE is not some sacred American institution. "Star Wars: Episode II: Attack of the Clones" is older than ICE. "Jimmy Kimmel Live!" is older than ICE. "Shrek" is older than ICE. We can abolish ICE, and we must abolish ICE.

Happy Birthday, Jenmarie! May the Forties be with you!

How "The Force Awakens" trailer should have ended....

Awesome! Okay, I'll definitely be checking it out next, Iryna. And I totally didn't see any typos. 😏

I haven’t heard much chatter about the new Robin Hood series, but a solid, serious take definitely has my attention. I’ll never turn down a good melodrama about a heroic outlaw redistributing wealth—I may have to check it out now. Thanks for the tip, Iryna!

If you’re looking for a movie to stream tonight—or this week, or whenever—here are a few recent films that I enjoyed enough to pass along:

• Bugonia (Peacock)
• The Life of Chuck (Hulu)
• One Battle After Another (HBO Max)
• Wake Up Dead Man (Netflix)
