Every character in Star Wars has a name and a toy. Did they show up for two frames and do and say nothing at all? Toy and name. Over in Star Trek land however I have waited since 1984 for this dude to get a name at all, much less the toy he deserves. Nothing about him exists. 42 yrs and counting.

So Grogu's eyes are huge and black (for cuteness reasons) but Yoda and Yaddle just have regular human-like eyes. So for science I wanted to see what Grogu would look like if I photoshopped Yoda's eyes onto him. I experimented with placement, so choose your favorite Viewer discretion is advised.

This Model is a Starfleet Dreadnaught as depicted by Franz Joseph. It’s a 1:1000 scale conversion kit for the Polar Lights Enterprise model. It required two kits to account for the details. I’m glad it lasted this long, there’s a droop at the neck

No, it’s not. It actually names genocide i.e. holocaust on the nazi side of the illustration. It is, however explaining that communist Russia was a willing participant before Nazi Germany attacked it. Stalin felt betrayed by Hitler and had hoped to carve up the world together.

so you're telling me a white dude calls for mods to "clean house" of trans people, furries, and leftists he doesn't like, the head moderator of the website likes a bunch of his tweets, and then the next day the moderators begin purging the website of trans people, furries, and leftists? strange!

This is the moment everyone in the North should know that policing is absolutely screwed. Yesterday a horrific report revealed institutional misogyny in the PSNI that is costing lives. The Policing Board (PSNI's 'independent' oversight board) used this as an opportunity to demand more money. [1/2]

I genuinely need people to be prepared to Divest from Magic and possibly DnD if WotC doesn't play ball here. Make noise, get loud, boycott. Do whatever it takes to help the workers.

WotC declined to voluntarily recognize our union by Friday, May 1st. While we're disappointed in this delay, together we remain strong in our convictions. We look forward to sitting down at the bargaining table so we can make Arena better for workers, for Wizards, and for our players. #UWOTC-CWA

Brazilian national Thiago Avila and Spanish national Saif Abu Keshek have been in Israeli detention without charge after being abducted on the Gaza-bound aid flotilla. Avila's wife tells Al Jazeera that he has been beaten in an israeli jail, and how an israeli judge extended his detention.

Don't ever let any blue maga genocidal democrat and liberal come try and white wash war criminal obama. Obama turned Libya from the country that had the highest standard of living in Africa, into a war-torn failed state, and dropped so many bombs on Syria that he literally ran out of bombs.

it’s very important to note that: - American war for independence was the only New World revolution to not be anti-slavery - concerns over British lurching towards abolition hastened the colonial war - the concept of “whiteness” was forged in the British American colonies (incl. the Caribbean)

Genuinely it blows me away that someone really said “making a politician earn votes is decadent). This is the culmination of the liberal system
