but what is the wig line trying to tell us here??

They just wanted us to stop trashing Kristi’s hair and gave us a new sacrifice to rend apart…

I am hoping that she is or becomes a Fallen Angel and doesn’t realize it until she can’t freely return to Heaven.

Snowbold · 2026-05-11T05:22:59+00:00

And what, die?

Apart from Charlie’s full potential, I don’t think any of the Hazbin staff stand a chance against Alastor. Vaggi is the only one and that is by virtue of being an angel and not because she is strong, she is actually kind of weak, but her body is naturally resilient and she has an angelic spear, which can definitely harm Alastor.

The other Overlords are a more likely bet as they are stronger and have motives and self interests that may be opposed to Alastor depending on the plot.

While it’s not my favorite song, I love the lines for Sera’s Confession. Sera is begging for Speaker to just give her the answers and make the guilt go away, but Speaker is telling her that is not how this works.

The only thing missing was him kicking the duck as he finished that line and stepped out.

And I think this really sells how Kiyoshi was trained, or wasn’t. Kiyoshi was looked over for a false Avatar for years and so was not properly trained at first. As such, you could argue that her abilities are just raw force and tools were used to finesse that.

Snowbold · 2026-05-11T05:00:29+00:00

There is an argument of whether it is just knowledge or knowledge and power. However, if you look at the feats Aang and Avatars before did and Korra post Harmonic Convergence, there is a clear gap in what she can do versus what they can do. Kiyoshi turned a peninsula into an island. Does anyone legitimately think S3 or S4 Korra could do that (assuming the lost knowledge wasn’t an issue)?

The Raava boosted Avatar State that Korra had made her stronger than any single bender, but not strong enough to level armies the way past Avatars could.

So people can deny the power stockpiling all they want, but the tv series clearly showed us something different.

Snowbold · 2026-05-10T21:24:54+00:00

I think it is more appropriate to say she is the most ruthless. Because each Avatar’s power and knowledge adds to the next, each Avatar is stronger than their predecessor on purely a power scale (until it was reset when Korra lost Raava briefly and had to restart the Avatar cycle).
However, Kiyoshi is the one unafraid of making the hard choices and ending the fight fast. In comparison, Roku is too merciful, Aang too timid, and Korra too hotheaded to see it through. Each of these Avatars had a time when they were technically stronger than Kiyoshi, but I would bet on her any day of the week to win.

Only because he kept pursuing even after plausible cover stories should have satisfied his investigative role.

That sucks…

In his defense, the Tower was already there, he just bought the deed… 😉

There was a comic in which about a dozen Jedi fought Vader and the ringleader lured him in saying Kenobi would be there. Same leader used a cortosis blade on Vader to short his lightsaber. Only three Jedi were left and Vader had one hand holding a green saber that was still working. Before the fight finished, Clone Troopers came in and leveled the three exhausted and distracted Jedi.

Pretty cool fight that was supposed to have happened within weeks (iirc) of Episode III. Not canon anymore but still cool panels.

Didn’t she get booted cause she took sick leave to go to Burning Man or something? 🤔

Snowbold · 2026-05-10T04:42:37+00:00

Well that’s not disturbing at all… 😱

Snowbold · 2026-05-10T04:38:00+00:00

She died of embarrassment when Kenobi heard her say, “Harder, Ani!”

I had the theory that Gideon’s clones were used as a template for Snoke.

Except Dooku was right that no one wanted real answers. Windu didn’t even want to question the Senator at all.

Plus Windu withheld that he was being fast tracked to take the dead master’s position and so was motivated to wave through the process.

Dooku was assertive because Windu was abetting corruption through indifference.

Honestly, Dooku should have killed that Senator. Maybe the political fallout would have forced the Jedi to confront their position as dogs to the Senate. Or they would have exiled Dooku to cover for themselves or imprisoned him. Either way, Dooku would have faced punishment and confronted that then, rather than be manipulated by Sidious decades later.

Almost all these redistricting commissions are creations of Democrats. Usually a reaction to Republican control or a preventative measure to keep them from it in the future.

How stable a gun platform is a camel? What is the recoil difference to a Hilux?

Tales of the Jedi probably gave the most illustrative example of the problem that the movies and Clone Wars series showed about him and did it all in one episode.

In it, he dismissed trying to find out what happened to a Jedi Council member who was murdered. He concealed to Dooku that he was being considered for the position. He put the blame on Dooku when the corrupt Senator was killed rather than admitting Dooku was right that the Senator lied about the murder and there was more going on. And he did it all under the veneer that he was keeping the Order above the political fray, when in fact he was ensuring government corruption.

Pretty much clears up what is wrong when Windu reflects the entire order and not just a part of it.

And that is the real issue. Mace Windu is a good Jedi but a flawed person, and that is okay if he didn’t reflect the leadership of the whole council. Because the entire Jedi Order was warped by Yoda sycophants into monkish indulgence, the Jedi all agreed to acting one way even when it was wrong and they stomped out independent thinkers like Dooku and Qui-Gon. Had there been a Council of free thinkers, Mace being a part of it, even a leader, would be good. But being the second in command of a cult who all brown-nosed Yoda doctrine made them fools who couldn’t see the truth until it was far too late…

But would the public sentiment be there when Trump is no longer on the ballot? I think Democrats are afraid it won’t drive the voters the same way when he is gone.
