That’s understandable. I’m glad you gave it a second try.
I’m currently reading This Is How You Lose the Time War by Amal El- Mohtar & Max Gladstone.
I really love it and it feels like I’m reading poetry.
I really loved The Last Jedi and how Rian tried to take it in a new direction. But the sequel series was honestly all over the place.
The Force Awakens was good but essentially a copy & paste of A New Hope. While Rise of Skywalker just did a 360 to change what The Last Jedi built upon and threw in Palpatine out of nowhere.
The original trilogy is the only one where all of them were good.
I'm not a fan of the AI image that's being used but I hope Starfleet Academy gets more seasons.
The comic is not “AI generated”. One of my friends reached out to the VFX supervisor for the show on Mastodon and they said the art department drew and colored it.
I think it’s also important for us to fact check things before assuming. I know “AI generated content” is being used a lot but there are designers and artists that are very much against its use.

I loved this episode a lot. Paul Giamatti & Holly Hunter really played off of each other very well. Seeing the Vulcan B’avi (I think that’s the name it said in the show) die and also mention Spock’s famous quote was heartbreaking but well done.
Episode was funny and I loved it!
I’m reading Network Effect by Martha Wells. It’s the fifth book in The Murderbot Diaries series. I love it so far and 30% done with the book currently.
I haven’t played 99% of the games listed here. Pokémon Shining Pearl has been the only one I played.
I don’t support any of the other companies either and I’m well aware they donate to fascists.
The reason I brought up the HP game is because the author directly has been doing a lot of harm to trans people. This doesn’t condone what these other companies are doing but I find that many people tend to look the other way with the HP franchise as a whole.
It’s awful seeing a game based on a bigots work being bestselling.
It just feels like a reminder that so many people don’t care about trans people at all because of “nostalgia” and not caring that Rowling benefits and hurts us.
sighs I’m sorry for that rant just sad/disappointed/angry to see this.
Not happy about the cat in terf outfit 😔

I understand what you mean. I think it would have been nice to have something unique like not all sith are pure evil or not all Jedi are good.
I know some of the other shows portray this concept to varying degrees.

What I liked the most with The Last Jedi was how Rey was just an ordinary person. Not a Skywalker or someone special and I felt that was really the most interesting aspect to me.
