  1. UK politics thread – meet the new boss, same as the old boss

    I think the Congressmen don't want to do it even if they would get reelected.
  2. UK politics thread – meet the new boss, same as the old boss

    I wasn't really sure the best place to put this, but I was reading about Knesset today, Israel's legislative body. I don't generally advocate emulating Israel's ideas, but if they don't pass the budget by the deadline, they are automatically invalidated and a new election happens. Imagine if...

    Tarkin is what you gotta worry about.

    It wasn't 90% complete. It was 99.99% complete. We don't even know what the last holdup was, right? It fired a couple days after Krennic hurried to Coruscant to talk to Dedra. The scenes were very good, but I just have a hard time buying.

    I think that is drawing a little more out of it than there is. I'm not sure what the other fork in the road looks like. I think it was Lonni's death that actually alerted them to the fact that Stardust was leaked. I don't know what would have been different if he had been spirited away. I'm...
  6. Lego and other brick toys

    It would be cute if they leaned into that joke on the packaging.
  7. A Long Time Ago In a Galaxy Far, Far Away.... - Star Wars General Discussion

    There is a bit of a disconnect in Andor concerning the Death Star. I'm not sure Krennic ever became aware the Galen had put in an intentional flaw. There is no indication that he did. Tarkin wasn't aware of it. He found out in the final moments of his life and the Death Star staff seem to...
  8. What stupid thing did the GOP say or do this time? Episode 3!

    Man, they've really got to get their heads together and decide whether they want to agree with the Democrats that putting together a huge pork barrel that was too long to read was a bad idea.
  9. What stupid thing did the GOP say or do this time? Episode 3!

    https://apnews.com/article/elon-musk-trump-tax-spending-bill-abomination-157b8733b60c343a5f8e551ffc887bf3 AP thinks Musk is doing this to test his influence on GOP. Maybe. I was thinking he was trying to find out if he could make EVERYONE in America hate him.

  11. Star Trek General Discussion

    I have still never seen that. Does anyone like it? It is the only Star Trek that I've never seen, so I guess I am supposed to get to it anyway?
  12. If I had a nickel for every time Phineas and Ferb came back, I would have ten cents. Which is not a lot, but weird that it's happened twice.

    My daughters watched through this show on their iPads and I heard quite a bit of it and found it pretty clever. Then I saw it on screen and oh. my. gosh. is it visual language terrible.

    Sorry, I left my calendar at home.
  14. Star Trek General Discussion

    We're probably never going to see for or against, but the presumption would be that it isn't going to be avoided.
  15. What stupid thing did the GOP say or do this time? Episode 3!

    Usually people have some interest in when and how, though.
  16. Masterpiece Theater: the MP thread

    New mold or old? Hauler gives me a headache. One single appearance the entirety of his existence and they make him a different color.
  17. Star Trek General Discussion

    It doesn't work as well with SNW.
  18. A Long Time Ago In a Galaxy Far, Far Away.... - Star Wars General Discussion

    The opening says it is 100 years before the rise of the Empire.
  19. Star Trek General Discussion

    Right? With a season of Discovery you really have to learn that the journey is the destination. The actual destination is always awful. Just look out the windows and enjoy the ride some. Sure.
  20. A Long Time Ago In a Galaxy Far, Far Away.... - Star Wars General Discussion

    The timelines do not line up. It is much too early. And Qimir is Filipino.... Sheev Palpatine is a wealthy white guy from a prominent family on Naboo. I guess you are thinking it has to be because you saw Darth Plagueis, but Plagueis is either from a long-lived species or kept himself alive...
