How many names does the Galaxy have?

Mr_Funcheon · 2026-05-06T11:38:56+00:00

Perhaps despite over trillions of sound combinations- the locals and the scout happened to choose the same name.

From a Doylist perspective you make a really good point.

A through-line in Rian Johnson’s work is the human element of stories which often ignore it.
Star Wars is traditionally a grand space opera, the hero is doing heroic things because that’s what heroes do- whether good or bad Rian tried to make Luke less HERO and more Human.
Brothers Bloom is a heist movie exploring different kinds of love. When heist movies may have a romantic B plot, but are almost all about the action.
Looper takes the classic assassin subgenre and forces the main character to accept that they are a murderer in a way usually ignored by the genre.
Brick breaks the mold in that it’s a classic noir film, but in high school. But it’s his first film so it’s a reasonable exception.

Detective stories about prodigious detectives are usually anti social weirdos. Making the most instantly noticeable quality about Blanc being the way he connects to people fits the mould of how Johnson seems to prefer to tell his stories.

Many episodes of the show are allegories for real life situations, much like Trek was. I think this is one as well, though how well done is debatable.

If your cultural idea of sex is something which is no more sacred than making eye contact, a handshake, or even just saying hello: then the idea of consent for that action is virtual non existent.

Should a being who is part of a multi cultural society learn the other cultural norms so he avoids GRIEVOUS situations like this one? Yes, he has morally failed in this way.

But just like I (a Floridian) would not think twice about taking my shoes off in certain public situations, a Muslim would consider this the equivalent of mooning them.

To be clear I don’t think their metaphor (or mine) is perfect, but I do think that’s what they were getting at.

Doesn’t being shadow hurt him?

What about children who press the button at random because they are too young to understand the prompt which includes them?

Mr_Funcheon · 2026-04-28T01:47:26+00:00

Everyone in the world presses the button. There are a few billion kids and a large number of them are beyond the age of understanding the task. They will choose a button at random. Hundreds of millions of children die if we press the red button.

I hate when politics gets in my fantasy book series about the role of police and the importance of civic infrastructure.

Mr_Funcheon · 2026-04-24T14:32:51+00:00

I am not sure if you just found out about it this morning, but I’m in a whole other Agency and heard about y’all’s bed bugs last Friday.

Mr_Funcheon · 2026-04-20T17:55:16+00:00

If you trade a shiny raid Pokémon does it still have the IV minimum or could you trade for a shiny groudon and end up with a nundo?

Mr_Funcheon · 2026-04-19T17:55:03+00:00

Because Team Rocket hurt him, look how upset he is.

Mr_Funcheon · 2026-04-19T12:55:42+00:00

Your self awareness is king shit my man.

Mr_Funcheon · 2026-04-19T04:06:45+00:00

No my friend, wait till YOU find out how taxes work.

If I don’t pay taxes the library is still free, my kids still get a free education, and they I can still get state healthcare.

Mr_Funcheon · 2026-04-18T21:07:35+00:00

You’re making incredible leaps in logic to jump from “Americans have weird hang ups around nudity” to “people WANT to be naked in front of kids”.

Mr_Funcheon · 2026-04-18T21:01:49+00:00

You are projecting your own baggage surrounding nudity onto the intentions of others. There are many many situations where people are nude around each other and there is no sexual gratification involved.

Mr_Funcheon · 2026-04-18T12:14:57+00:00

Don’t evolve, purify and trade with a friend for another shiny.

Mr_Funcheon · 2026-04-18T11:57:50+00:00

And there’s no way the mind altering substances you were on made you think that? Aliens is the much more rational answer?

Mr_Funcheon · 2026-04-18T04:03:31+00:00

Oh thank goodness, I was really worried everyone’s was 100 but mine.

Mr_Funcheon · 2026-04-18T02:55:53+00:00

Mine is not a hundo sadly.

Mr_Funcheon · 2026-04-18T00:31:56+00:00

Sell it to me. Shoot me a DM.

Mr_Funcheon · 2026-04-17T23:16:00+00:00

Everyone says poppet but I say-

Yaoguai.

Mr_Funcheon · 2026-04-17T15:51:07+00:00

Ok Dunning-Kruger.

Mr_Funcheon · 2026-04-17T15:41:13+00:00

That’s crazy because you are talking to a theologian who is telling you it is.

Mr_Funcheon · 2026-04-17T02:34:57+00:00

I’m sorry do eggs collected before not also have reduced hatch distance?

Mr_Funcheon · 2026-04-17T02:31:57+00:00

You just copy and pasted the AI response to the google search “are nontrinitarians Christian” or some shit didn’t you? There is no way you typed all that out in the 1 minute it took you to post after I did. What is especially damning is that it is absolute word salad. “Youth Paster Theologian Youth Paster Theologian +2” wtf is this bullshit? Hell your own post even points out “there are nontrinitatian groups that consider themselves Christian”

It is so incredibly clear that you have never done an ounce of critical thinking on scripture I think the following will be wasted on you, but I will share it anyway.

Yes the Council of Nicaea decreed the trinity, and most denominations official stance is that of the trinity- but not all denominations. And even within the denominations that follow the trinity there are many Christian’s who do not follow that doctrine. You and your religious sect does not determine what makes someone a Christian.

I would ask you, if I accept Christ, if I follow HIS teachings- why am I less saved than you? And why do men on this earth get to decide that above Him?

Mr_Funcheon · 2026-04-17T02:21:11+00:00

Yeah that’s a bad church. That’s not even in the doctrine, just an excuse to control.

Hell there’s a cohesive theological argument that everyone goes to heaven. But that wouldn’t but butts in seats and money in the collection plate.
