The Spacesmith

My very favorite thing about TLJ, looking back on it, was probably the kid Force-pulling the broom at the end and holding it up like a lightsaber and the implications there. I wish many things about TRoS, lol, but I most wish that it had followed through on TLJ's best ideas.

Star Wars: Outlaws videogame fanart by Eleonor Piteira featuring ND-5 a droid with a long coat, Kay Vess a young human woman with brown short hair holding a blaster, Nix a axolotl-inspired creature with fur and scales on Kay's shoulder, and a small spaceship called Trailblazer flying in front of them amongst stars. Orange/yellow sunlight illuminates them from the back.

Kay Vess, ND-5, Nix, and the Trailblazer! #StarWarsOutlaws fanart, since it's been a while since a game has grabbed me this much <3

My first exposure to Mensa was an older guy who repaired PS2’s for a living and helped run a chatroom I hung out in as a teenager and was weirdly hostile until ppl told him to chill. Talked like he was King of the Atheists. That was the only impression of Mensa I needed.

Fantastic 4 was fun! The cast was on top of their game and the movie remembered to be joyful and funny in spite of the high stakes. Credit to the people who designed costumes, sets and props, because the aesthetic helps create a mostly consistent tone for the film
