Yeah, exactly. It seemed important to them to stress that Ahsoka’s training was different from a normal padawan’s, thanks to Anakin.

That's "Practice Makes Perfect." Episode 5 of Star Wars: Tales of the Jedi. It's a miniseries that came out a couple years after Clone Wars ended.

And then stick it in a drawer and forget about it until the next day. Then re-read it with fresh eyes after a good night’s sleep.

Letting a full day pass before re-reading it should help give you confidence to decide if it’s the right thing to do or not.

Yeah, seriously. Thanks for sharing those clips, I hadn’t seen the video of Padilla yet, and now I’m thoroughly enraged.

Hehe I do similar things in the morning. For example this morning I weighed my coffee beans, ground them, set up my chemex, and then stood there for like a minute thinking “what did I forget, I know I’ve forgotten something important.” It was the water. I forgot to fill up the kettle and turn it on. Mornings suck.

Rein in the state from what, NYTimes??

You can’t put shit like that in your headline and then not elaborate on it at all in the article. Rein CA in from exercising its state sovereignty? Rein in the state’s desire to not suffocate its residents? Rein in the state’s ability to use its size and political strength to make the rest of the country slightly healthier?

What the fuck are we reining in, NYTimes, other than CA’s left-leaning tendencies?? FFS I’m sick of this newspaper.

I have a very diverse diet that has served me well, so I’m not here to be converted to this diet or anything, but I like to be exposed to different ways of thinking about food. Challenging assumptions and norms is healthy, and though I can understand why some might be skeptical about a community like this in this day and age and in this climate, it seems like you’ve given that a lot of thought, and just want a space to talk about how you eat. Nothing wrong with that!

And I’m always happy to learn how to make a better steak, so hopefully there will be some of that kind of content too.

Yeah it was disappointing that it ended, especially since they teased a next season that never came, if I’m remembering correctly. Still worth watching though.

Frankly, the thing that scares me the most is that you can hear the soldiers in the audience loudly booing at residents of LA on behalf of Trump, when prompted by Trump. That’s disgusting behavior, and should get them all reprimanded or discharged.

While I don’t necessarily have the default unchallenged respect/reverence for the military that most people do, at the very least I expect them to act professionally and respectfully in their own country (since we know that’s often way too much to ask when they’re sent abroad). Fuck any solider who openly acts on their political views, and fuck every soldier that doesn’t refuse an illegal order. You volunteered to do this, so you better do it right.

It must be pretty intimidating for these fools to have to contend with a sane, principled, Jewish, Mexican woman. They don’t like any of those attributes.

DNC chair Ken Martin said that the controversy surrounding Hogg “destroyed any chance I have to show the leadership that I need to.”

Uhh then I think he needs to look up the word “leadership” in a dictionary. Good leaders don’t usually blame their subordinates for their own deficiencies. Hogg isn’t doing anything that would prevent Martin from growing a backbone and actually leading the party.

Blaming Hogg for Martin’s shitty instincts is childish and transparently ineffective. I was always against Martin as chair, and he continues to make all the mistake we knew he would make.

Or, and hear me out: just install a browser plugin and forget ads exist.

I hesitate to name extensions names, but I’ve literally never seen an ad on YouTube.

These companies don’t respect us, so I don’t feel the need to respect them by allowing them to force their meaningless bullshit down my throat.

I don’t use it that much, but you better believe if I go to YouTube to watch a video, that video is the only thing I’m watching.
