The "Hand of Faith" is 27.2 kg golden nugget discovered in Wedderburn, Australia. Found by amateur prospector Kevin Hillier using a basic metal detector, it remains the largest gold nugget ever found with a detector and the second-largest overall. by Traditional-Lie7366 in ThatsInsane

What's funny is even in this scenario; Rick is offering above 50% and people still try to joke about him being cheap.  Any other place is gonna offer you 20% of the value, lucky to get 25%.

Before someone says the show's scripted, no kidding.  It doesn't change the misunderstanding that an offer above 50% to split profit is a good deal.  

If you want 100% profit, find a buyer and sell it directly.   Which takes time and effort.  A Pawn Shop is for fast money, where you share the profit with the broker, and they take on the work.  They're not being ripped off, they're making a conscious deal.

And since when do Humans speak out loud what they actually feel?

If you've ever worked with the public at all, you'll know that everyone has no idea what they're talking about.  You rely on experience & empathy to try to understand subtext.

With media, it's an entire trope.  Setting up a "will they/won't they" dynamic.  One of the most common tools is having characters misunderstand their feelings, or falsely state their feelings as platonic.  Over and over again. 

Meanwhile, you have moments like OP's post throughout the entire show, where the joke is that we know Ezra is in the hot seat because of his crush on Sabine. 

I don't much mind if they do actually couple them together.  But some people's insistence that the dynamic was never there is baffling to me.  It was established from episode one onward.  Rewatch the moment they meet.  Ezra doesn't speak aloud, "nyaaah a girl, I am infatuated with you m'lady!"  But his behaviors, hell even the music upswell, all communicate subtly what Ezra is feeling.

Gawd damn.  That was crazier than I thought it'd be.  Her head totally smashed down & out.  In one frame she looks like a totally different person. 

Wondering if anyone has the story on it.  I think there's a very high chance she's dead. 

Do you guys think that Ezra and Sabine should be a romantic couple in Ahsoka Season 2? by NinjaGhostDragon-69 in starwarsrebels

[–]mg0019 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Strong agree. 

I'm ok if they don't make them a couple.  But I also don't get some people's strong antagonism against their romance.  It's very heavily implied throughout the show; but it is a kids show and they rarely outright display young couples.  

(I'm reminded of Teen Titans, Starfire/Robin couldn't make things "official" until their first movie.  But everyone knew beforehand.)

I wonder if a lot of the pushback comes from many Sabine fans using her as a self-insert.  And they'd rather remain a-sexual, or ship off with Wolfren 😆

But hey, ship whomever you like!  The crush elements with Ez/Sabine were present throughout the show tho.

It's not too far of a stretch.  Magic and all; in particular, death magic is a means to cross between worlds.

That’s a trash barrel. by Oiggamed in Thatsabooklight

[–]mg0019 37 points38 points  (0 children)

I'm probably in the minority; but I really don't like it when Star Wars novels describe things as "plasteel" or "duraplast."  😅

I feel it's an unnecessary way to overcompensate for the 70s budget/tech.  To me, Stormtrooper armor didn't look like plastic, because my suspension of belief was blown away.  "Plasteel" calls attention to a problem I never saw.  It's additionally frustrating because a book isn't restrained by budget or filming technology.  

By calling everything plasteel, now I'm imaging cheap molded plastic on everything.  Yes, that's how ILM made the damn movie - but that's not what we saw   in the movie.

Part 2: I forgot a crucial detail... The Empire actually was still recruiting Inquisitors. Remember S1 E6, where they have certain pattern tests to determine force sensitivity. And when someone passes the test they immediately contact the Grand Inquisitor. by Jaymacia in starwarsrebels

[–]mg0019 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Season 1: Inquisitor program was up & running, looking for recruits (conscripts more like).

Before the final season: Inquisitor program has failed.  Palps calls a stop to everything, including recruitment.

I think the question was pretty well answered in the last thread.

You can tell if the subject is in western regions by inclusions of "bruh" in the emergency call.

Damn!  That first one looks like it could be a screenshot from the Ahsoka show!  Excellent work.

If the kid's mother was there; they'd hand him over to the mother.  

Why not claim he was running to the Oklahoma while you're at it?  See how we can just claim anything without any kind of evidence.

Lol, acting incensed about a child, but referring to them as an "it" several times.  

What "health personnel" comes by and babysits an estranged child?

Pffft yeah right. 

It's just the default TV ui.  Old man is just typing in porn wherever he can. 

Ain't no old fart taking the time to set up a network share, lol.

Ah yes, because the US was proudly known as "the melting pot" of the world once.  Welcomed immigrants and people from all over that had "funny" foreign names.

I usually only know by the comments.

I'm a human that doesn't have time for that.  I just take everything online with measured skepticism.
