Harry Kim could easily build and fire the custom torpedo that blows up the Death Star. Darth Vader escapes, seeming to promise a sequel. The next episode is about Naomi Wildman's haircut. The Empire is never mentioned again.

The drink I need after this week.

We've had enough Aaron Sorkin movies about Mark Zuckerberg. Now we need some Todd Solondz movies about Elon Musk.

Kansas Dem Sen. nominee Adam Hamilton on trans rights: “I don’t think we should take a small group of people and bully them, pick on them, and hurt them. I understand one thing really clearly when it comes to transgender people, and that is Jesus told me I was to love my neighbor as I love myself”

the US is hyper-Protestant to its core, but it also believes in saints. you would never think our parent culture *burned* Joan of Arc. cremated her alive, like a Southeast Asian junta. we refuse to systematize them, which is honest. it would be an odd list.

Me trying to get the bartender's attention when I know my karaoke song is coming up soon.

I've mentioned this, but this is intended to play on the boomer "why are these crazy kids cutting off their parents" fear mongering.

is this how I learn that Ramaswamy would have been an ivy league contemporary of Rory Gilmore, because that all makes too much sense

Antisemitism is structurally necessary for Musk's politics, because the right-wing populism he supports needs to frame itself as fighting for "the people" against "the elites," but as the world's wealthiest person, he needs a definition of "elite" not rooted in actual wealth or corporate ownership.
