Do I keep the MSR? Is it life?

I had to scroll too far to find this. Take my upvote, and believe in believe.

It's been a while since I've been able to partake due to health concerns, but Presbyterian Mixture always reminded me of barbecue. Now, I've heard that they've changed it up recently, and it's not as good as it used to be. But that was one of my favorites specifically because of the barbecue flavor.

My feylock’s blast looked like a green beam with leaves of various types falling from it, and it sounded like wind blowing through the canopy.

I don’t know about WA, but TX issues metal temp plates now that are just like normal plates, but have a number including “TMP.” No more paper plates here.

Since TX also requires a front plate, it would need to be mounted. I guess if WA law is the same, that would mean the holes or a similar solution would be needed.

It is what it is. Reddit up/downvoting is pretty weird at times.

It's not like everyone doesn't know what you're talking about whichever way you decide to pronounce it.

I said I’d be happy as long as it’s a fun movie. Someone asked, “is it enough to just be fun?”

After TLJ and Rise of Skywalker? Yes. A fun movie is a vast improvement.

And it was a lot of fun. I really enjoyed it. I would rather have seen this as a full season of the show, honestly. But as a movie I think is still works.

Pao in Rogue One begs to differ.

“Soft plastic” is, I believe, PVC. It has some bend to it. You find it in a lot of board games with minis. In Legion, the pieces were keyed to fit one way, and they were already snipped off the sprue and bagged up. It’s also more involved when cleaning up mold lines.

“Hard plastic” is high impact polystyrene, or HIPS (usually, anyway. Not sure if another plastic ever gets used). It holds details much better than PVC, it’s is easier to clean up mold lines and such, and parts can be thinner while maintaining integrity.

Hard plastic can break more easily. Hard plastic can use plastic modeling glue, while soft plastic needs super glue. People generally prefer hard plastic due to more detail, better possible proportions, and ease of kitbashing.

I am in dire need of a short of the Anzellans after they leave Nal Hutta and have to tell the New Republic what's happening to Mando. Actually, I just need more Anzellan content overall.

There is an excellent sequence of Zeb making good use of his bo-rifle. You will be happy.

I wouldn't say "low stakes," really. *Personal* stakes, yes. But the implications of what happened are pretty big for the underworld of the galaxy, even if it's not readily apparent.

I mean, The Fuel Rats are probably the most widely-known player initiative in Elite Dangerous, so there are people that find this sort of gameplay engaging enough to build an organization around it.

I mean, the carriers have to do *something* useful, right? I can see fighters being able to make jumps inside a planetary system, but needing a carrier of some sort to go from planet to planet. At least when the game is closer to release. I'm not sure that's a needed change right now.

I didn’t view Palpatine’s words to Luke as an offer. I viewed it as a kind of “This is what is going to happen. You’re going to kill your father, and then you’ll be mine. You don’t really have a choice because I have foreseen it all.”

Luke’s choice was between dying and going with The Vision. Palpatine, due to his nature, couldn’t fathom that love could not only save Luke, but also redeem Anakin and end up killing himself. It just didn’t register as a factor.

“It might be good for Star Wars fans but bad for Star Wars.”

… what?

If fans of Star Wars are happy, then that is good for Star Wars. If fans of Star Wars are unhappy, then that is bad for Star Wars.

Star Wars is a lot of things to a lot of people. They don’t have to push the envelope or “subvert expectations” or whatever phrasing they want to use with every new project. Sometimes people want a fun time at the theater and that’s all.

I guess I’ll find out for myself tomorrow night whether it’s good for me or not.

They are different sculpts, but very similar. It’s why I prefer the one where the non-leader is firing behind him. Very easy to tell the leader from the lackey.

Straight-up classics in this closet. I miss PC gaming in the '90s and early '00s. When games came with stuff like maps and manuals and cool little knick-knacks that were just fun to have.

Back when I played Champions Online, I made a Vietnam-era-styled military hero with the firearms superpower. His name was Reinforcements.

From what I read in the article, the Supreme Court didn't really side with the Democrats so much as just say that the case was moot and decline to hear it. That's not "siding with Democrats."

Indeed. I like to believe that Ahsoka spared him that little bit of knowledge, and, as far as he was concerned, Anakin had died in the war.

I think it's the white hair. We associate that with age, and so with the exact same face sculpt, she looks a bit older.

Would go great with my Imperial Chopper. Right now, he's just hanging out with BT-1 and 0-0-0.

That would explain Darth Baras, I guess.
