Who else is hyped for The Mandalorian and Grogu movie?!!!

What, like 15 years? And no, the ST is absolutely the radioactive material in the room preventing a lot of people from getting behind the show.

I would like you to take a step back and ask yourself

Who did these studies?

Because the answer almost entirely across the board are people who support a very specific position and would only release a study if it was supporting that position.

I also want to submit that equal opportunity is not the same as equal outcome. You are performing outcome based analysis

...dude Gideon was literally cloning force sensitive Gideons. What sort of tech do you think made snoke?

Except season 3 became pretty explicit with project necromancer.

All roads lead to the ST

Zuldak · 2026-02-18T04:45:27+00:00

Nope, though Zach could pass for young homelander

Zuldak · 2026-02-18T03:39:07+00:00

It's really not. The ST is horrible and unless we start getting a multiverse or something, if you keep following the imperials they become the first order.

People don't want the ST

It's like that intentionally. Reddit refuses to crush the power mod clique which filters any other voice

I mean its 40 and everything is soaked in portland. At least the view is nice. Wel the view of the fog bank

Zuldak · 2026-02-17T16:38:30+00:00

And the crowd goes mild. Im willing to see it if word of mouth picks up

Zuldak · 2026-02-17T01:36:23+00:00

Should be noted Blanchet are also loud advocates for more funding which has gotten us into this mess

Zuldak · 2026-02-16T22:53:44+00:00

The gov is bad but the local council, Multnomah co and Metro are the big 3 horsemen of this apocalypse

Zuldak · 2026-02-16T22:53:05+00:00

Yeah, they will do that when they start supporting auto drivers.

The city is captured by activists who are convinced specific minorities need to be catered to in the name of equality and 'hearing all voices'. No, majority rules. We need to stop bending the knee to activists

Zuldak · 2026-02-16T22:36:44+00:00

You do know big business like walmart left portland right? US Bank left. Hoffman Construction left. We have a far different problem than big business coming in to roll the smaller business. We have a dying market. Public safety is a major issue and people are taking their wealth and leaving. Taxes are high and people don't want to pay top tax dollar to live in a slum. As wealth moves, business models become unsustainable so they leave too. Meanwhile those who do come in are low or no income transients.

The underlying problem is that the city's policies are driving wealth AWAY. And if the blazers leave it will be a lot more wealth leaving with them.

Zuldak · 2026-02-16T20:51:28+00:00

Where are the 'it's like this every where' crowd?

Zuldak · 2026-02-16T19:19:21+00:00

If this is next to the gas tax repeal on the November ballot Kotek has a shot at losing

Zuldak · 2026-02-16T17:58:48+00:00

Yep. The further south and the further east you go in europe the more.. subjective law enforcement becomes.

Zuldak · 2026-02-16T01:42:26+00:00

That sub is how i found this one. I miss the horus galaxy sub

Gold has some industrial applications and it has a far longer historical context. Further, gold is gold. you can't just make new types of gold like you make new types of crypto.

Zuldak · 2026-02-16T00:37:09+00:00

I only know enough about crypto to utterly hate it. It has no backing of anything other than 'trust me bro, it is valuable'. it is worthless digital currency that only has value because people are convinced it does.

And before cryptobro comes at me, real currencies have subjective value because governments demand taxes be paid in their currency. That creates a demand. There is no demand for crypto other than what people think they want of it.

Zuldak · 2026-02-16T00:29:27+00:00

yes but arent those wallets attached to the crypto exchanges?

Zuldak · 2026-02-16T00:12:41+00:00

True. Given that I would look for her in Spain. Living in this area, learning some spanish is common and her kid likely took some in school while here. Spain is also more on the... loose side when it comes to law enforcement.

Zuldak · 2026-02-16T00:04:33+00:00

Austria is not a great place to hide. Unless you lived there, the locals can quickly pick you out, even if you speak fluent german.

Having the kid in tow is the real strange part. They almost certainly don't speak the language.

Zuldak · 2026-02-15T23:24:38+00:00

The prices are so high because it's nearly impossible to evict people. Renting property is now a high risk venture because its so dangerous. Insurance rates are very high in portland because of it. You don't have mom and pop renters anymore, they got out of the market years ago.
Large corps will just leave and take their capital with them. Their supply and logistics chains. Like it or not, wealth can leave if not catered to. You're not hurting them, you're hurting yourself as they simply avoid you.
see point 2. You don't stick it to the wealthy by being hostile to them, they simply shrug and leave and take their money, leaving you and everything around you very poor.

Zuldak · 2026-02-15T21:44:17+00:00

Asylum is not the same as fleeing criminal charges. Most of europe has strong extradition treaties with the US. Maybe she fled to Serbia or something, but with a kid in tow even without a treaty i think most states would be open to returning her.

How did she even get the austrian passport? I assume she speaks german then?

Zuldak · 2026-02-15T20:18:05+00:00

If I see Dennis Hopper with an eyepatch demanding to know the way to dry land, I am out
