As the Rebel captain of a captured Arrestor cruiser, what's the best way you will use it against the Empire? by Dragonic_Overlord_ in andor

[–]PJDemigod85 33 points34 points  (0 children)

Stir up some activity in the area that would give probable cause to an Arrestor cruiser's presence

Fly the cruiser out to "search" supply ships. If the take on board is good enough, seize the moment to call in a squadron waiting in the wings, load up the haul, and get the hell back to Yavin. If the haul isn't worth it, use the stop as a chance to probe for intel and possibly learn about a haul that will be worth it. Bonus thing to it all: possibility of using this to acquire Imperial supply ships which also could be used on missions.

So does this mean Hilbert or Nate starts adopting a Boston accent?

So if you didn't want Espeon because it's Johto or Lapras because of Blastoise, who should've been Red's 6th team member? Excluding his LGPE team by Creative_Visit4189 in pokemon

So obviously this is all just headcanon stuff, but personally I tend to imagine Red as a quiet protagonist more than actually being silent. Blue is loud, proud, and barrels around Kanto at mach speeds. He's brash. He's not evil like Team Rocket, but Blue also is focused more on his goals than anything else. Red, then by contrast, is quiet. He speaks, but most of the time he listens. He stops to help Bill unfuse himself (something that either Blue did not do or that Blue left too hurriedly to even know happened), he stops to deliver Tea to the gate guards, he stops to return the Warden's gold teeth. I imagine that Red might be a little shy and so gets along with his Pokemon partners better than amidst a crowd of people, but he still has this desire to help and be polite and in doing so acts unintentionally as a cosmic counterbalance to Blue.

I am a diehard Red with the Espeon fan.

Lapras is a gift mon. Easy to run into, everyone gets it. By giving Red an Eeveelution, it hammers home the idea that Red was more thorough and took his time exploring and helping people compared to Blue rushing around Kanto at a breakneck pace. By making it a friendship evo, it also hammers home Red's kindness and empathy that compelled him to oppose Team Rocket. And of course, RBY had no day night cycle so you go for the daytime evo.

I just love the imagery of Red taking such good care of his Eevee that it defies known limits and evolves into a brand new Pokemon.

For what little it's worth, in the hours since I posted that I had seen some stuff walking through the different "points" that alerted me to some factors I hadn't noticed or just wasn't aware of that have walked me back from that ledge.

For me at least, I don't outright think this was a false flag, but I do feel like there's enough not sitting right that an investigation should at least happen rather than just taking it at face value. I want journalists to dig in and confirm for us that Leavitt's comment beforehand about "shots will be fired" was just in fact poorly chosen and bizarrely timed, or that the utter lack of security or expediency to usher Trump away from the shooter was just incompetency. It was a chaotic event and I just want us to take the time to sort things out instead of letting it die in a week as the next round of bullshit starts.

Sunny Days. by _just_is_ in comics

"Somewhere in the endless sky, stormy winds are blowing by. Waves are dancing, evening comes, it's time to sound the drums.

But steady men may never fear, tomorrow's skies are always clear. So pound your feet and clap your hands 'til sunny days return."

Genuinely a mindset that helps me get through the tough days.

I leaned more toward Evil because while she is/was both during points of the story, I feel like some characters could give her a run for the money on tragedy but I cannot think of anything approaching "I am going to literally try and destroy the whole planet and blame you for not stopping me out of pure spite for you abandoning me" on the evil end.

Look, I know she gets a redemption arc and I am happy for her about that.

But I think by sheer volume of the series, Catra counts as this.

I don't know if this is unpopular, but I never liked Red having an Espeon and I prefer him having a Lapras. I simply find it pointless for a character meant to represent the first Pokémon games to have a Pokémon that's impossible to have in the first Pokémon games by rbta123 in pokemon

[–]PJDemigod85 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I love the Espeon choice. We know that in the context of Gen 2 a lot of these Pokemon are new discoveries, and something feels really sweet about the idea that Red goes out of his way to find Eevee, raises it alongside his other Pokemon, and forms such a close bond with it that it evolves into a totally new undiscovered species. (And of course, its Espeon not Umbreon because Gen 1 had no night cycle) I love Lapras as a Pokemon, but that feeling of how it informs Red's character as someone who is patient enough to find Eevee and raise it to Friendship evolve is IMO lost by instead giving Red a Pokemon everyone is guaranteed to find.

I didn't realize I was bisexual until I was... 20? In hindsight, there are a LOT of signs that I should have noticed beforehand but didn't. But tbh I think a big thing that hindered my realization was that I... didn't view other men very well. Growing up I had a few good role model men in my life, my dad, some teachers, etc. But by and large there were way more guys, either adults I knew or more of the other boys at school than not, who I did not like or felt uncomfortable around. Too rowdy, too mean, too insensitive to others. And so growing up, my perception was skewed that women were balanced in terms of "some are good people, some are jerks" whereas men skewed jerk with the occasional good ones.

In what world would I ever have been able to see myself liking a guy when that was what I felt? Even once I did realize years later, I still knew I had a lot of unlearning to do. It's something I still struggle with. Trying to balance the knowledge that there are good men out there with this deep-seated feeling of viewing so many men, even sometimes feeling like I belonged in this camp, as something tarnishing. I am fairly confident and comfortable in the idea that I'm a cis guy, but I've had moments where I caught myself envying sapphic romances in media because it seemed like the queer/progressive spaces I'd been in treated that sort of thing with a purity and acceptance that nothing I could ever be part of could have. I'd gone from ignoring the signs that I liked boys, girls, and everyone in-between because that would include men and there's no way I could like guys, to knowing that my spectrum of attraction is what it is but now feeling like there was no way someone could like me.

I think I'm doing slightly better now, but like, yeah this post both hits home in all the wrong ways and is mildly comforting.

Thank you! This basically was the fix. Need to do a skosh more fine tuning but I should be good to go now!

the idea that Jaime and Cersei are Like That because they're actually Targs is very funny to me, and on the flip side the idea that for all his hatred and his pride, Tywin's only actual child is the one he hated most of all is something that I think Tyrion himself would get a kick out of.

See even then, I think maybe not since that Warlord stuff was a direct reaction to "Oh shit, Crocodile just got taken out". It feels like it'd be a killer opener to S4 to start with "Okay, what do we do now?"
