Vergere being revealed as a Sith.  Being connected to Lumiya.

Ah, yes -- I read about this on Wookieepedia.

"Oh, a Jedi Knight adopts the belief that the Force has no dark or light side and passes that teaching on to another Jedi. That must mean she's secretly a Sith, and she's clearly trying to bring the Jedi Order down from the inside by corrupting its teachings!"

It reads like in-universe propaganda.

Well, I think every day is a day for you to celebrate your own bigotry, because you truly do revel in it.

Darth Id strikes me as the kind of atheist who was brought up in a fundamentalist household. Fundies-turned-atheists almost always cling to the "us vs. them" mindset they were raised with, just with the tables turned.

  ...While pot smoking might merely dull the mind and rob the spirit of motivation...

      I'm not sure the word "merely" quite works in that sentence.

      The destruction of human lives and human potential from this "victimless" neuro-active chemical has been nothing less than CATASTROPHIC.

     It isn't only the DEVASTATING dullness of mind and loss of motivation, it truly is a POWERFUL introduction and gateway to EVEN WORSE substances and behaviors.

     OTOH, It's a good thing the lords of media and popular culture are enthusiaticaly dedicated to helping create a society of sober, decent, and empowered individuals capable of recognizing intensely depraved, psycho control-freaks wanting to reduce the children zombified slaves. 8-l

 This post contains so much bullshit I don't even know where to begin.

At least the internalized homophobe didn't mention Luciferians this time around.

Anyway, Lucasfilm proper found Aurebesh handy and has since used it in all of their video productions to date, including The Force Awakens. Which is fine to a point, but I've always felt they should be more diverse like the OT.

Yes, exactly. In a civilization made up of thousands of races/cultures, you'd expect to find more than one writing system in use anyway.

Adventures in Raising the Next Generation of Original Star Wars Fans

If a miracle occurs and I do end up having a kid or two in the future, hopefully it'll be at a point in time where the PT has faded into obscurity and no one other than those who saw the movies when younger has any living memory of it. I wouldn't want them associating anything PT-related with Star Wars -- not even TCW.

I just woke up from the strangest dream I have ever had.

I dreamed that Frank Miller had framed another comic book writer for his murder as an "April fools day joke" and when charges were pressed I was forced to hear every detail of the case because I was selected for Jury duty and then the defense used All Star Batman and Robin as proof that Miller was insane and shouldn't go to prison.

I swear this all happened in my dream.

My brain scares me some times.

Not as weird as the dream I had a few days ago where I ate a heart-shaped chocolate laced with LSD and suffered a bad acid trip. I mean, really -- experiencing hallucinations in a dream? Talk about totally redundant.

 Yeah that's like doing drugs while reading Alice in Wonderland, what is the point?

  Because drugs make you cool, haven't you heard?

Anything that kills you tends to make you cool.

Unless, of course, it's fire we're talking about.

Right next to the fucking ocean, and have a water shortage?

Water, water, everywhere, nor any drop to drink. 

 No one can drink seawater without desalinization, and we don't know what impact could happen if that plan was taken. That ocean might as well be not water at all.

I take it you've never read The Rime of the Ancient Mariner. =P
