AAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHIIIIIGGGHHH!!!
I have a canker sore on the dip of my gums on both sides of my mouth! And these things are long. It’s constantly painful, and I can’t move my face without it hurting even more!
I got those all the time when I was a kid. The worst I ever counted was 12 at one time.
I’ve heard release in September with a likely announcement either in Celebration or in May.
Something concrete?
Hearsay from people I trust. So no, nothing anyone should take as concrete.
So, do you think it was hotter or colder during the Middle Ages?
perhaps we could figure that out by looking at what people back then wrote about that weather. They may not have recorded exact temperatures, but they surely talked about the weather. Surely some understanding about the weather back then could be gained.
It wouldn’t be possible to determine temperatures from that. It’s really hard to tell if a year is two degrees colder without a thermometer.
I am not talking about exact temperatures, estimates and other info about weather patterns.
It wouldn’t be very reliable. The small increases in temperature are important in the grand scheme but not noticeable by individuals in the moment, especially since it takes a while to add up. I also don’t think there are even many medieval sources that describe daily weather.

NYT is unreliable.
This is why the right always wins.
Eh, it’s not winning, it’s all just taking one news institution’s word over another for no other reason than they cater to your personal political views. Both sides are guilty and buy right into the line that they’re being sold.
As a result, media becomes more and more politically polarized because real objective news journalism doesn’t sell like sensationalized attack “news,” and as a result of that, our political parties become more and more polarized, no compromises are reached (why would you compromise with someone who is obviously wrong and an idiot, after all), and America suffers.
Nobody “wins” in this equation, except for the people making money off of the people who blindly follow the narrative they offer on their “news outlet.” Until news stops being a business focused around driving clicks so they can sell ad space, this decline will continue. Unfortunately, that’s up to the people to not blindly buy what they’re being sold, and since people don’t like to think for themselves, who knows when things will change.
I understand your argument, but I believe the right is going to come out as the victor in this polarized environment. They control all three branches of the federal government now, so they are in control of how our lives will be run in the next four years.
Even though Trump is coming into office with little popularity, the left-leaning media has even less popularity than he does. Click on any youtube video critical about institutional racism or sexism, and it will have a ton of dislikes automatically. I remember an online ad featuring a transgender kid and it has 25,000 dislikes vs. about 300 likes. The most hated channels on that site are MTV news and Feminist Frequency, while the most popular channels are the likes of Sargon Of Akkad and TheAmazingAtheist, which spend most of their time “debunking” leftist opinions. Anyone who doesn’t harbor a far-right viewpoint online is labeled a Marxist who wants to send everyone into reeducation camps. It’s far more socially acceptable to be on the right on social media rather than on the left.
All of the people you listed are on the left. The reason Feminist Frequency and MTV News are hated is because they are full of shit. TAA is an all-out socialist leftist. He just doesn’t like identity politics. Idk about Sargon but he’s not right of center.
Why is identity politics bad then?
Because not all people of a race or gender are the same? It doesn’t even pertain to this conversation. The point was that you were accusing leftists of being far-right purely because they’re opposed to identity politics. The reason MTV and Feminist Frequency are extreme is because they blame men and white people for everything, and they also overreact to non-issues, like video games.
What are non-issues to you are aggressions to the marginalized. It’s like Chinese water torture: a single drop of water seems harmless to you, but imagine thousands of them after a long period of time and let’s see how you feel. Besides, men and/or white people have been doing shitty things to people for hundreds of years, and people pretend that it’s not going on right now. Instead they constantly blame victims (“black people CAN BE racist”) so we end up losing focus on the real issue yelling at each other about semantics.
Well, none of the people on MTV or the woman on Feminist Frequency is marginalized. Video games are not Chinese water torture and women and non-white people have been doing shitty things to people for hundreds of years too, but I don’t blame women and non-white people for the actions of those people because I don’t believe that all women and non-whites are the same because I’m not a racist. Your argument is a perfect example of why I’m opposed to identity politics. It involves blaming everyone for the actions of some and excusing the actions of some because they claim to be marginalized.
Fuck it, you’ll just dismiss my arguments anyways.
Well I have been responding to it.

I mean seriously, Obama brought more wars than W. Bush???
He didn’t end any of them effectively as he promised. There was certainly no less war under Obama than G. W. Bush
He’s going to do a total 180 and thank Obama for all of his work as a public servant (or however he’ll phrase it) and he’ll close with “We are going to make American great again. Yippie Ki Yay motherfucker.”
The main problem with watching II and III between Empire and Jedi is that all of AOTC and most of ROTS really has no bearing on what happens in the OT.
Have the interpositives that were created to be telecined to master tape for the Laserdisc/VHS releases beeb destroyed? that’d probably be the highest quality source for official remastering, right?
Nothing has been destroyed.
I would just go with release order. Star Wars is barely a “”""“saga”"""" anyway. The prequels don’t mesh with the OT at all and the ST is kind of a sequel reboot anyway. The idea that all of the Star Wars movies even remotely fit together in any type of order doesn’t work in my opinion.
yeah, I was angry at the election results. But I still stand by the 2nd one of those.
I only included the 2nd post because of the part where you said that our rights and freedoms have been put in jeopardy and that the country is doomed. The rest of it isn’t particularly doomsaying, IMO. I understand that you were angry, though, and that most of those posts aren’t opinions you truly hold.
That’s why I said that they were hysterical.

Also, I have no respect for those that voted for Trump.That’s another reason why Trump was elected.
whatever.
He’s right. The hysterics prompted a lot of people to vote for Trump to spite the faux outrage on the left. Ironically it created a lot of faux outrage on the right too.
I assure you, my outrage at Trump getting elected, and my lack of respect for those that voted for him is not faux.
Perhaps “faux” was the wrong word. How about “hysterical”?
nah.
OK, your reaction to Donald Trump’s victory was hysterical. It absolutely was. You had the same reaction as frevious did.
not really.
You did. I wasn’t even referring to your Nazi flag post either (which was hysterical) but something else that you both said.
He was a reality star but his claim to fame comes from his business empire much more than his tenure on Celebrity Apprentice. It’d be like referring to Robin Williams as the star of Patch Adams. It isn’t wrong, but it is leaving out what he’s actually known for and implies that that is all that he was.
my point is no one that has anything to do “reality” tv show, should be anywhere near the Oval Office. It is not a place for clowns.
Bill Clinton was a clown and he made it in, LOL.
Bill Clinton at least had experience in running a state as governor before he became president. Our new president questioned wether or not Obama was even born in the US.
On the other hand, being on a reality show doesn’t automatically mean Trump was unqualified to run for office- it’s the lack of any political experience that should’ve disqualified him.
Keep making posts that have this tone.

I was rewatching From Star Wars to Jedi on the Star Wars youtube channel and I had forgot how much OOT footage was in it. I noticed that the ugly furball thing that would later be the singer in the Special Edition was shown briefly in puppet form. I never noticed that before.
EDIT: I also forgot that almost 70% of the documentary was about Jedi and half of that was about Jabba’s palace.

Perhaps, but there was nothing faux about the outrage.
Not the outrage about Trump specifically, but the general faux outrage about non-issues like memes and Ghostbusters.

Well yeah ok. The only one who should be blamed for his obnoxious countdown is him, unless a Trump voter got ahold of his password.
Yeah that my angle there. During the pre-submission process of my post I envisioned a tongue-and-cheek response involving inappropriately-assigned blame. It went through several different drafts and ultimately it wasn’t as clear as I had hoped or planned.
It’s a featurette on casting Anakin.
Some of those boys looked like they were four years old. I’ll never understand why George Lucas wanted Anakin to be a child in TPM, especially if he was planning on Anakin being at least in his early 20s by the end of the trilogy.
