I don’t block people unless it’s an emergency

Reminder to all my homies: If any of ya’ll think trans rights are a bargaining chip, you aint leftist enough for me!

Why can’t we have Leftist Unity? The fucking Rightists can agree on hating “The Libz”

Why can’t we agree on hating cons? Sadly I can’t even get Leftist factions to agree on “LGBT Rights are based and cool”, because Left-Learning TERFs exist and I’ve had Tankies pull “LGBT Rights is racist because it means forcing Western Ideals where they don’t belong” crap on me.

I kind of miss the anonymity of the internet. It’s too easy to be ostracized now.

My little sister hates Star Wars simply because back when she was in high school, that’s all the other kids talked about. She told me how tired she was of hearing about people shipping Kylo Ren and Rey, so much so that she plays the Sims and outright REFUSES to get the Star Wars DLC for it because she doesn’t wanna remember how toxic people were to her for not liking Star Wars.

Even though I love Star Wars (May the 4th be with you) I can weirdly relate, because when Andor dropped and my initial thoughts were “Slow, boring, and doesn’t feel like Star Wars.” and the Heist arc only CEMENTED this for me. (God I couldn’t tell you how much I wanted those characters to die, and how little I felt when they finally did, hours of build-up and the only thing I learned about them is that they don’t think Andor’s one of the cool kids, and one of them wrote a book! Now they’re all dead, don’t I feel like my investment was worth it?)… My Reddit inbox (remember before they went on a banning spree?) was flooded with people telling me how stupid I was for “Not getting it!”, and how simple people like me “Should stick to pew pew stuff like Clone Wars”

It made me want to rewatch Rogue One, not because of “Andor Hype”, but because I’d get to see the show’s namesake die. Legitimately I’d fire up Lego Star Wars and just have player 1 be Darth Maul, player 2 be Cassian Andor, and just killed Andor over and over again, that’s how mad I was getting at Andor fanboys and their constant barrages of insults to anyone with ANY criticism of the show. It legitimately got so bad that I just didn’t wanna watch Star Wars anymore.

I liked what little I saw of The Acolyte, but, sadly these Disney shows have been tainted for me by a combination of Boba Fett being THAT BAD and the toxicity of the Andor crowd.

I’m sorry Boba Fett was TERRIBLE, I just don’t understand why they went with a script where Boba Fett acts like he has no idea how Jabba’s operation worked despite being one of his right hand men. Did the writer just never see Return of the Jedi? I realize the only line of dialogue Boba Fett’s ever really said i anything ever is “He’s no good to me dead!”, but come on now. You just can’t give me a fish out of water story when the character in question is a shark in familiar oceans.

I realize that Star Wars has always been of questionable quality and has been divisive every since Empire Strikes Back had half of people going “What a great twist I was absolutely floored and on the edge of my seat since we got to Cloud City!” and the other half going “Darth Vader and Anakin Skywalker are the same person? Bullshit, what’s next, Luke and Leia are twins!?!”, so much so that the real Star Wars is the friends we made along the way, but…

I’m not making friends along the way anymore, and that’s just depressing.

This, I don’t even know what the fuck is up with the magic dagger that tells you where a holocron is on a crashed space station that did not exist when the dagger was forged.

But there’s shit just as dumb in the prequels, such as Palpatine hiring Dooku who then hires Jango who using his assassin money hires an assassin who hires a droid who hires two bugs, ending in a chase where Jango runs into the old villain trap of “Kill the unwilling informant being coercised into talking and not the guy who actually wants to stop you?” that’s been around since Dick Tracey was writing parking tickets.

This, I’m willing to bet that the sequels will be just as beloved as the prequels suddenly were.

I think it’s funny when people compare the sequels to the EU, when they share a lot of ideas.

I actually have to blink at the number of times people swear to me, without sarcasm or irony, that the EU would “NEVER BRING BACK PALPATINE!”

But like, it did though?

As an American, yeah I agree with you, fuck the USA

Use the Spell Card “Monster Reborn” to ressurect the fucking Dollar Menu

I wish we could have the kind of unity Canada does where they recognize stupidity, call it out, and NOT side with fascists

It’s not even satire at this point

I’m aware

If you need an AR-15 to feel safe at Target, the problem is you…

Or you’re a character in Fallout and there are Raiders in the Super Duper Mart

I’m reminded of when McDonalds did their Rick and Morty szechuan sauce promotion, and basically no place actually had it.

It was a big story that Rick and Morty fans harassed workers complaining that the franchise lied to them.

It got so bad that McDonalds released an app to show where and when stories had the sauce, and announced they’d be selling posters as well. Unfortunately, some locations lied or at least misused the app to say they had the sauce when they didn’t.

So I went to one location with my brother, and we found a line forming outside. The store wasn’t allowed to sell the posters till late in the afternoon for some reason, and wouldn’t let anyone there for the sauce even enter the building with cashiers actively blocking any Rick and Morty fan from entering, even just looking college age was enough to be refused entry.

I thought this was ridiculous and just said “Wow, the only thing that’d make this worse is if they didn’t have the sauce.”, only for the lady guarding the door to tell me that they did indeed not have the sauce, despite the app saying they did.

There was this guy simping hard for her, mi’lady style, and a bunch of brodudes talking about how they’re so Nihilistic and Smart “JUST LIEK RICK!”, whole thing was a shit show. He said “Oh yeah, no they don’t have the sauce, I asked.”

He was eating cheeseburgers despite not being allowed in, apparently you could have the food brought out to you if you used the app.

It was fucking cold that day. Still feels like, even false advertising aside, something about this had to be illegal.

So I said “Fuck this, I’m leaving.”, just got into my car, went to Wendy’s, ordered chicken nuggets and the most asian sounding sauce they had. Posted one of the only food selfies I’ve ever done of what I ordered

“Was going to post me eating the sauce, but I went to Wendy’s instead because this store actually has products they claim to offer.”

A friend of mine asked the next day what was up with that post, because Food Selfies or even regular selfies are just THAT out of character for me, and I told him the story.

He looked at me geniunely impressed, and said “Wait, you valued your own self-respect over the ‘cool corporate thing’, voiced your dissatisfaction, and calmly left without making a scene or embarassing yourself? If anyone was Rick at this event, it was you”

I just said “Huh”, as I didn’t do that to be cool, I was just hungry, wanted to buy nuggets, and didn’t get them from a store that lied about having them…

It was then that my brother, who had been with me when we went to McDonalds spoke up, admitting he didn’t even think of what we actually did that day either, we just up and said “Screw you guys, I’m coming home.” and said one of the wisest things I’ll never forget

“If you think you’re Rick, it means you’re Jerry.”

I feel like we’d exchange the Elon Musks of the world for the JK Rowlings of the world, the Ronald Reagans for the Margaret Thatchers, and the Donald Trumps for the Ayn Rands.

“Fairer sex my ass”

The only reason you don’t think women can be evil is because you’re too used to the idea of women as damsels to be rescued, too childish to be a threat to anyone. This is because the patriarchy hates the idea that a woman can be competent moreso than a man, even in acts of evil.

Have you not seen tumblr? You’ll just get Elon Musk with a vagina and a hate-on for anyone capable of having a hard-on… Even if they aren’t men.

So an even more mask-off JK Rowling

Talking like someone who judges groups solely by the actions of loud extremists and oversimplifies anyhting they don’t understand.

The problem is that’s actually the opposite of how that works. If you refuse to care for the weak in your community, you foster this atmosphere of sociopathy and mistrust that causes the group to destroy itself.

Why the hell do you think there are only two Sith in Star Wars?

I have literally never heard of any of those
