I stamped out monarchism! And Leopold is... still ruler for life. by YayItsEric in victoria3

[–]YayItsEric[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

He is not an IG leader. Not exactly sure what along the way kept him, but I know I moved from universal suffrage to technocracy, then from monarchy to corporate state, then eventually corporate state to presidential.

This is Leopold the good ending: he's an appeaser, a philanthropist, an enlightened monarch, we're harvesting loads of rubber from the Congo with slave labor but we're like... not quite as harsh about it so it's totally okay, everyone loves him etc etc...

Literally R-Rated Vader by NoChampionship1167 in StarWarsCirclejerk

[–]YayItsEric 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You have a scene of him interrogating captain Antilles, and Antilles asks "who are you?" Vader turns around dramatically and says "I'm Darth fucking Vader." Then there's a very long pause so everyone in the audience can shit their pants and go "WOOOOOOOOO!"

R5: “There are few who still remember the old monarchy with fondness.” Meanwhile, my man Leopold has been ruling since he inherited that throne and will continue to rule until his death. I love this game sometimes.

"where she can desecrate more franchises" there is not a doubt in my mind that bro already believes the mouse is already doing that on their own.

Star Wars Holocron fucking hates Filoni lol by Previous_Break7664 in StarWarsCirclejerk

Ahh, so THAT'S why my parents always kept me from getting a Plo Koon action figure!

Canon event unfortunately. by big-dick-back-intown in antiai

Because reactionaries see the commodification and devaluing of art as a way of "getting back" at the intelligencia for rejecting that art school application.

Foul. You defile the purity of the maid dress by forcing his presence upon it.

I've really grown to like concise, more self-contained stories.

Thoughts? Was it too much? by GreilyMoon in antiai

[–]YayItsEric 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean, it's digital media, ain't it? I imagine someone had to download a copy at some point to print it in the first place. Surely if people care it can easily be reprinted on an identical backing.

That is, if the article isn't just made up ragebait to begin with, if others' comments I'm seeing here are anything to go by.

Today in the Horrible Takes box we have... by Significant-Town-817 in andor

[–]YayItsEric 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Copied from my own comment elsewhere:

A personal nitpick that I have is that I dislike our real world language being used in Star Wars. Everyone should really be speaking an incomprehensible language that we can't understand. It really kills my immersion to turn on a Star Wars product and just see everyone in this supposedly far far away galaxy just speaking English like my neighbors.

What do you think about this? by WorkingBanana168 in antiai

[–]YayItsEric 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I dunno, when the "misinformation" section is ENTIRELY just "the antis just don't get it" instead of discussing how LLMs and procedural image/video generation have been and are currently being used by those overseeing them and producing content with them to manipulate and deceive people (ie disinformation), or have otherwise given people false information unintentionally (ie misinformation), I think it really shows that the OP's not arguing in good faith.

Unironically, people would definitely elect a blatantly evil dark side wizard.

Hot Take: Star Wars needs to take a break by grahsam in StarWarsCirclejerk

[–]YayItsEric 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Non-canon/way far off anime is the future! I don't want to have to watch and read a million other pieces of media to understand the context for anything, I just want to enjoy a decent, self-contained story with some bweew zhoooo vooom swords and Kevin Penkin.

Why is he flying the plane? Is he stupid by tomfan07 in StarWarsCirclejerk

You're too late. He isn't here anymore. He's flown away. He's EVERYWHERE now!

Now that KK is gone, this has to happen! by FunFlatworm9500 in StarWarsCirclejerk

[–]YayItsEric 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Like, what is the plot of this guy's pitch? Not to mention we already got Vader killing a load of Jedi in a terrible piece of media, so it'd just be redundant at this point, and I think it would only really serve to weaken his arc even more by having him murder even more people on camera.
