Star Wars Fans Seem to Be Review-Bombing the Wrong 'Acolyte'
  • Agreed. At this point in the show I'm hopeful I'm reading it right... But I think everything has been misdirection and showing one person's point of view that is impacted by their own impressions. The few YouTubers I've seen that haven't gotten sucked into the anti-DEI rage hole are actually putting out some great theories on what is happening... But I think the show runner's comments have enflamed so many of the bro-chad-fans they are looking for reasons to be mad ..

    I am hopeful that my read of things is true, so I'm enjoying it so far. It is possible they mess up, but I'm gonna give it the season to fully judge.

  • "The Acolyte" bait and switch angered some, but many more kept watching. That's why it works
  • Agree with you point on how EVERYTHING I see about this show is extreme. Just trying to get rage clocks... Ep3 RuInEd sTaRWaRS... What I have seen is a LOT of glaring holes that I feel like they have left there on purpose, and once the show shifts to a non-Osha recollection I think we will get a lot of info.

    I'm enjoying even after they apparently killed and destroyed the mutilated corpse of Star Wars... But I must have missed that part.

    The Acolyte discussion and review megathread
  • Just wanted to pop in and say I'm still greatly enjoying it. I feel like a lot of the Internet is jumping to conclusions with some Ep3 stuff that is hinted at but not actually said... Kinda now just holding out hope that the show is going where I expect and can make them eat crow.

  • Big cars are dead weight dragging down climate policy
  • This is what happened with my family. We had a VW GTI and a Golf.. when the kiddo came along the wife wanted an SUV so if we got in an accident the kid wouldn't be automatically dead by one of these fucking monstrosities... I think I'm slowly convincing her that a car might be safe, but VW doesn't make the Golf for USA anymore..

    I feel like maybe a path forward would be a long the lines of what someone else has said. Make vehicle registration cost more depending on how big it is.. but who knows...

    Now to top it all off because of America's obsession with big vehicles there is still a limited selection of small hatchbacks in the EV zone...

  • Star Citizen Now Selling $48,000 Bundle That Includes Every Ship
  • I'm a cheap starter too. Really enjoy the game for sure! It completely ruined Starfield for me... I was out of Starfield the first time I "flew" the spaceship... Loading screens... All of it... Star Citizen killed any joy in that game for me. Haha.

  • I'm looking for a privacy respecting vacuum robot
  • .... I may need a tutorial on doing this... My HA works great, but I have a ton of Hue in my house from before and really like the bulbs and stuff... It would be nice to block those off from the Internet... Is that doable on the router or do I need to upgrade my network (been thinking about doing some upgrades anyways).

    Lauren Boebert says she will switch districts and run for another Colorado seat in Congress next year
  • This will most likely help Republicans keep CO-3 as it's right leaning, but they were sick of her... A "normal Republican" will more likely do better there without the bobo baggage.

    Also, not a slam dunk for her to win the R primary in the other district..

  • Their second to last paragraph reads like we should lament the fact that all the sweet MAGAs will lose faith in the system... Implying that it would be better if they didn't lose faith in the system by letting their dear leader walk free.

  • I'm not going to hold my breath hoping for prison... I won't hold my breath for conviction either. All it takes is 1 MAGA crazy sneaking into a jury to let him off.

    If he is convicted I'm sure he will get some form of home detention. It will turn into a form of convicted in writing only.

    I'm a "glass is empty" type person.
