Leia's Ruby Red Slippers 🏳️‍⚧️🟢

Not really. first off a lot of these characters already had fleshed out personalities in books/comics so alot of what TCW did was already done first in other places. it Also kind of… missed the point of Anakin and tried to turn him into a new character

Still a good show but it’s got its own issues

Happy birthday to Nika Futterman! #Ventress #AsajjVentress

confused about where contrapoints assigns agency, in her post. democrats supported a genocide - but it is the left's opposition to that genocide that helped reelect trump? the left distributing pictures and videos of atrocities in gaza has people in a rage - but what about the atrocities themselves?

The speed at which Star Trek: The Next Generation improved in the second season is *remarkable.*

Once you get to "Elementary, Dear Data" the cast and direction has loosened up considerably. All of that awkward stiffness that haunted the first season has almost completely vanished.

If you haven’t read @jointheschwarz.bsky.social’s deep dive into the Rogue One Visual Guide, do yourself a favor and check it out. I love this, and the wealth of Star Wars knowledge here is amazing!

the cover of star wars: a new dawn

well might as well take my read thread over here if i'm really committed to moving

Of course I care about bisexual Pellaeon she’s one of the good things about Aftermath. Incidentally I do really like that miller made her and was like “hey I think this characters go legs. Anyone want to use her?” Just pretty cool. Wish someone would force Filoni to use her.

I forgot Kanan flirted with Sloan. lol

Sure. Why not?

Cover art for Star Wars #90, with Mon Mothma (in orange robes), Admiral Ackbar (in purple and yellow outfit), Luke (in brown tunic) Han (in orange shirt) standing behind a Leia wearing a symbollicy split outfit of green diplomatic robes and orange fatiques. A ghostly blue Darth Vader looms over a trippy pink background

Continuing my 1984 re-read with Star Wars #90, cover-dated as the last issue of '84, but really on newsstands in September. Still, it feels like a year-ender. Oh, and I love the offbeat coloring on this cover. Action figure customizers could have fun with Orange Mothma and Easter Ackbar here.

The fifth book in the new jedi order series of books

Starting next NJO book. So far the series has been good. Hopefully that stays the same

Listening to Starship Troopers audiobook. Yeah it’s pretty bad lol. Wouldn’t exactly recommend.

Elon Musk put $277 million into the election. Now he’s $200 billion richer. The tech mogul made a big bet on Donald Trump. By one measure, it has paid off handsomely.

When there were reports that Musk would spend $45 million each month for the last three months of the election Musk claimed it was fake news and he would actually be spending a much smaller amount

For profit prisons should not exist.

A human imperial officer feels off their skin showing a Chiss spy beneath.

First Order officer: I think it’s time we handle these Chiss. What should we do with them?

Not a Chiss in a human suit: I hear they hate gifts. They hate gifts and they hate free food

FO officer: well we’ll try anything once. Interesting plan commander ima’hum’an

Not a Chiss: Just call me mahuma

“What happened to the man who preferred a straight fight to sneaking around?” Han’s brow furrowed and his jaw dropped a bit. “Who’s sneaking around?” She frowned in disappointment. “You’ve changed, Han.” “What are you talking about?” he protested. “I’m the same as ever. Timeproof, weatherproof, rust resistant.” “You think so?” Leia took him by the shoulders and swung him around to face the mirror. “Take a good look.” Han fell silent for a moment. “That’s not the years, it’s the parsecs.” Leia exhaled wearily. “You can be so exasperating.”

Loving the NJO books so far. It’s nice to see just how much all this time has changed the characters. Much as I love the 90s books the characters did sometimes seem stuck in a time bubble.

People need to stop acting like the 2008 Clone Wars is all “George’s vision” like he and Dave Filoni are some cronenberg creature conjoined at the hip or something. If you like it then fine(i like a lot of it to) but Lucas was a busy man it’s unlikely that everything was his idea.

Hmmmm

Hmmm....

Is masking one's Force presence(Force Stealth) the same as masking one's power level in DBZ?
