Unpopular opinion time:

I loved the Last Jedi and Ryan Johnson pretty much made Luke as great/powerful of a Jedi as he could while still fitting the plot in with existing canon and what was setup in ep VII.

We already knew Luke had disappeared, so it was already canon that he had essentially abandoned the cause for some reason, that was done by Abrams. Luke had struggled with fear and anger the entire original trilogy, so the cause in TLJ fit in well with his past, as did his reaction.

His force projection to save the day was probably the single strongest and most impactful single act of the force displayed across all the films and was just badass.

Chairs are overrated. I pretty much always choose the floor. Even the couch tends to be used mostly as a backrest for sitting on the floor

My friend got a dozen or more marriage proposals in Egypt, some including pretty sizable dowries—which really did not help as much as the people offering the proposals wanted. I’m guessing the only reason she wasn’t followed like this was due to the presence of her family

AIDS has killed many more than COVID-19, albeit slower. Gingrich and Justice Thomas are responsible for a lot of the degradation of our institutions that allowed for trump and his ilk. Gay and Trans rights were essentially non-existent compared to today.

We are worse off in many many ways, but for me personally that last one means I am much better off at this moment (this may not last).

Hazbin Hotel (Animated, not for little kids) is amazing and should be on there.

Even if they found the drive (unlikely) and it wasn’t smashed (not sure how likely), It still seems really unlikely that the data would be recoverable after being in the elements that long with rust and whatnot.

The volume to cover one acre with one foot (ie: of water). Cubic volume measurements are for metric.

You are correct. Still miss my old shop99 though. https://youtu.be/mzscKUOn_vM?si=bQ0eUuMkKyN1Apsg

To add onto this. I did a rough estimate (hopefully I did it correctly) and assuming one billion ice vehicles as OP stated, if you scattered them evenly across the surface of the earth there would be about 25 miles separating each car. While I believe ice cars are quite damaging, it’s not hard to think it would be okay with that in mind.

Jealous. I have a 2011 prht and it’s amazing and a much better car in a lot of respects, but NA Miatas are just the best.

Yeah, that’s about right from my experience
