    All Things Star Wars

    Yeah, I wish they just focused on other storylines. Focusing on fixing screwups just puts a spotlight on those screwups. Makes a lot more sense to just forget about Palpatine completely and move on to something else. The Star Wars universe should be a huge place, there should be an almost...

    Ask a Travel Question here!

    In most of Europe this is probably not required, but some people bring a fake wallet with them that they keep in their pocket, their real wallet hidden away somewhere a bit more secure. The idea is that if you ever get mugged, you can give them the fake wallet and hope that they let you go...

    Ask a Travel Question here!

    When I was in Norway in August (in 2015) a bunch of stuff was shut down cause "half the country is on vacation", but it wasn't really that bad. Most stuff seemed open. Some businesses seemed to be staffed by workers from other countries, but some mom n pop style restaurants were closed. Mind...

    All Things Star Wars

    I think it's really lame they are using the Bad Batch series to try to fix the Palpatine storyline from the sequel trilogy.. but I'm watching anyway.

    Ask a Travel Question here!

    We haven't finalized our plans yet, but are going sometime next year before the rainy season begins, so we are thinking late april or early may. This will be outside of the usual time period when people climb Mt. Fuji, but according to my research it will be doable, depending on the weather. I...

    Ship of Theseus and the old Copenhagen Stock Exchange

    Are they not planning on rebuilding it? Does it really matter if it is or isn't the same building? I mean, on a conceptual level or not, whether you agree that it's the same building or not if all the bricks were replaced one by one or whatever. Isn't it more important for people to see the...

    Are YOU a SWAGGART or a SWITT?

    I am more like a SWORP, honestly. Bruffy when required, moppy when the occasion calls for it. Say no to neckties on Wednesdays, you know it.

    What TV Shows Are You Watching? The 9th Is - Excuse Me - A Damn Fine Cup Of Coffee

    I have been watching Sugar, on AppleTV+. I really dig it so far! It seems like a fresh new take on a detective/private investigator sort of story. It's got film noir vibes and an interesting plot that continues to expand with each episode. The art direction is great and maybe my favourite...

    Two of my friends are heading there next year and they have invited me (and others) to join in. That's a part of it. Japan is also such a fun place to visit! It's incredibly safe, really easy to get around, you don't need to rent a car, the hotels are reasonably priced, the food is amazing...

    Nature: Long online discussions are consistently the most toxic

    For reddit at least, it depends which subreddit you're in. Most of the larger default subreddits are full of chaos. There are a lot of great smaller subreddits that are good places for honest intelligent discussion. Most of them are well moderated, but not all are. Some have just so far...

    Dream Thread

    My experience with flying in that dream was that I had to learn how to fly first. It's something I read about before this happened, and didn't believe.. but sure enough, it wasn't as easy as soaring into the sky and flying around. I first had to learn how to turn left, turn right, how to...

    What TV Shows Are You Watching? The 9th Is - Excuse Me - A Damn Fine Cup Of Coffee

    3 episodes into Halo I realized that I've already seen it! I must have been half-watching it, distracted by something else. Maybe I was engaged with something else during the first 2 episodes? One particular scene in e3 really sticks out to me as something I've definitely seen.. But the...

    What are you watching on YouTube now ?

    Does anyone remember this show from the 80s? This is a show that we used to get on TV in communist Poland. I am 100% sure if that, the music brings me back.. and the dudes with the elk heads were also definitely in the show. But nobody in north america I've shown this to has ever seen it...

    Dream Thread

    Nobody in my dreams I don't recognize ever has a name.. I don't think. I almost never dream about people I know either. When people I know show up in my dreams they are key elements of the dream. For example, I had a "Mall World" dream last year that left a bit of an impact on me. I was...

    What TV Shows Are You Watching? The 9th Is - Excuse Me - A Damn Fine Cup Of Coffee

    I started watching Halo and it's pretty good so far. Am only 2 episodes in. The annoying thing though is that they expect you to turn on subtitles to a special setting if you want to understand what the aliens are saying.. but they don't tell you this and you have to figure it out yourself...
