- So fucked up

- Totally! I would love to see a version that gives it some breathing room
- Haha yeah... want to rewatch it now, and it's my favorite Star Wars movie, but I'm worried it will have aged poorly fresh off of Andor 😅
- Oh man, Andor. No spoilers for people who haven't seen it but hooooo the deep breath I took seeing that familiar uniform.
- Props to the costume design. I totally forgot who Melshi was when he appeared in season 2, but I'm never gonna forget those jumpsuits.
- My big Andor gripe is that it took so long to give us K2SO. I get it, though. You see how capable he is in Rogue One, but they REALLY made the KX series terrifyingly strong in Andor and it would have taken a lot of the danger away if he was around earlier.
- I'm sorry I missed it! Sounded like a great convo among some really cool people. Also check downthread for a video of Nicola telling one of my favorite stories from her childhood. It's so good 😁
- Editing a comic I'm really excited about for @crucialcomix.bsky.social during coworking today. Can't wait for you all to see it! We get so many cool pitches and I love getting more experience under my belt by editing as part of a duo 🙌

- Thanks. I hope you bounce back! It must be so frustrating
- Oh to be Shohreh Aghdashloo, dressed in fineries and walking around like you own the place all the time.
- I recently started at a new job myself and I keep telling myself not to get comfortable because "job security" seems like it hasn't really been a thing for a long time and it's certainly not going to get better with everything going on
- I keep thinking about what happens to retail jobs when tariffs cause everything on the shelves to disappear.
- [Not loaded yet]
- Ugh that sucks
- Damn, I've been pretty out of the loop lately for reasons I'll disclose eventually, but I can't believe I missed out on Woke Pope
- Also brilliantly rendered in The First Union by @skutchdraws.bsky.social and @hbomberguy.bsky.social One of the stories in Iron Circus Comics' Failure to Launch Anthology.

- I mean, why wouldn't anybody assume that only clones fought in the Clone Wars?
- is anyone here a nerdy british rapper
- Oh dang, I don't know what they're up to these days, but I immediately thought of Professor Elemental and Mr. B The Gentleman Rhymer
- [Not loaded yet]
- Darth Maul with at least 2 manosphere podcasts

- Oh yeah, but I'm thinking more at the parish level. Like does Father Hobbes get up there one day and go "Hey, we're going to start saying this now" ? Been decades since I went to mass and it's just fun to think about
- [Not loaded yet]
- That is fascinating. I wonder how they even roll out a new protocol like that.
- [Not loaded yet]
- Oh whaaat? What is it now? I need to keep up with the canon (literal)
- This is the hardest I’ve laughed at a post in so long
- [Not loaded yet]
- [Not loaded yet]
- That is a fantastic still life haha
- Oh dang little bits are bubbling up from my memory but what lives in rent free in my head forever from Wrath is minor dungeon boss Bronjahm <Godfather of Souls> who is just James Brown, down to his little battle shouts and boss fight music. It was so funny and out of place with the rest of the game
- [Not loaded yet]
- Incredible. The most inconspicuous of mustaches even
- When I think about WoW, I do not think about the music at all. Can't remember any of it. That's FFXIV's thing. So when your party gets to this weird little guy--a stumbling block on your way to your dungeon loot--and funk music starts playing, you're like "Wtf is going on here?"

- Every now and then I join a discord with an art channel and yeah, whenever they allow gen ai images they invariably are spammed by one or two people using it as a dumping ground for their slop iterations.

- congrats!

- Such a good movie!
- Fuck these plants
- This is less than half of the hostas in our front garden, which every year threaten to engulf the entire plot. I had to split them with a shovel and drag them out kicking and screaming. I am so tired
- I learned the other day that you can eat these shoots, but also that they are poisonous to dogs. Ollie loves veggies, so we will not inadvertently teach him that these are edible.
- Ugh the colors on this lemon! I love it!
- They're such great lil guys!
- Managed to get the mower working today just in time for the stretch of beautiful weather to end 🥲 Gotta take my victories where I can, I guess
- [Not loaded yet]
- [Not loaded yet]
- Gottdang I need to have one of these
- Listen, we just have worried resting face 😟
- Good lord, look at my handsome son 😭
- [Not loaded yet]
- I feel such kinship with them
- [Not loaded yet]
- oh my god I know those looks so well haha
- [Not loaded yet]
- He's getting all salt and peppery like me 🥲
- The world weighs heavily upon his head
- [Not loaded yet]
- [Not loaded yet]
- Yeah it’s a bummer. My first year doing cons again too 🥲
- Oh no, am I still on the exhibitor list? I unfortunately had to cancel due to America 🫠
- You can EAT them? This is incredible information in my war against the hostas that we have to chop into pieces every other spring or else they grow too mighty
- [Not loaded yet]
- Given how much our dog loves vegetables, this is really good to know!
- It was so funny, the first time we did this we were so delicate, surgically separating the shoots. Meanwhile every guide online is like "Chop it with the biggest piece of metal you can find"
- [Not loaded yet]
- [Not loaded yet]
- We have to split ours in half every other year to keep them from taking over the entire garden and all this time I could have been farming??
- In what might be my nerdiest turn, I got myself one of those little notepads with a flip cover because I had been carrying a sketchbook around with me to appointments and it's been way too bulky
