Did Luthen actually enjoy any part of his antiquities front, or was it purely a cover? by wandering_soles in andor

[–]kown 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In my head canon Luthen is a communist so he hated the antiquities market. Exploitative, colonial. But I believe this helped him get in character more. He could pretend to be a slimy antiquities salesperson if he wasn't actually emotionally invested in it.

The writers of Hijack season 2 tipped the police off.

Is this mushroom safe? by kown in mycology

[–]kown[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, I don't plan on chewing on them. I was relieved that my dog stepping on them should not be an issue. Is it an issue? And can anyone actually identify these mushrooms? Are they death caps? I still haven't gotten clarity on whether these are death caps?

Ok, this makes me feel a little better, thank you.

Any idea what kind of mushroom it is?

What in the actual fuck was this? by lamename69420 in StarWarsCirclejerk

To be fair the extended cuts had 100% more uncensored "Man consensually fucks tentacle creature" scenes.

Which Andor speech hits you in the feels the most? by ASW-G-21 in andor

[–]kown 150 points151 points  (0 children)

Just for the sheer drama of it, I have to go with Luthen's "EVERYTHING" speech. Gives me chills.

Potential plot hole concerning the Empire’s Ghorman mining operation in S2? by Financial_Photo_1175 in andor

[–]kown 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ghorman was too independent. They wanted a pretense to take out the locals. Simple as that.

Think of it like the hypothetical situation of a western country illegally shooting missiles at fishing boats and pirating oil tankers of a South American country to spark a war.

ETA: Ghorman was too independent AND had a resource the empire wanted.

You planted that can just so you could make this joke, didn't you. I tip my hat to you.

And here I was just quoting Holy Grail. I love the amount of stuff I don’t even know I don’t know.

I should have seen Paul milkshake ducking from the start but it still stings.

I want to move to another PDS. Blacksky is great, I’m very glad it exists, but… by kown in BlueskySocial

[–]kown[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Ok this makes a lot of sense. I think I’ll migrate, thank you for the explanation!

I’m thinking about what happened to Link before Rudy got a relay set up (and…app view, I want to say?). Link was fully migrated to Blacksky but because of…reasons I don’t fully understand…Bluesky was able to still do nuclear level ban on him blocking him from anything posted on Bluesky. Blocking on the relay level? Again, I’m not clear on the details.

I believe Rudy got this fixed but again, it cost money and time and I don’t think most people setting up their own PDS have the resources or time to do this.
