Whoever ends up running Doctor Who should now commission Ross Sutherland to write an episode without using the letters 'A' or 'I'

This is a photograph of the edge of one of Saturn's rings, looking down from above. Those spiky dark shapes are shadows. Shadows of giant towers of ice and dust grains clumped together that rise up to three *kilometres* above the 10-m thick rings.
A series of bands cross the image from left to right, brighter at the bottom and darkening towards the top. A band of empty space is at the top of the image. About a quarter down from the top is a complex pattern of jagged, spiky shadows cast onto the rings. The icy towers casting the shadows are seen here at a highly oblique angle.

the bleakest bit of this is that he only knows his companionship has enriched their lives 'to some degree'. i think chewbacca might have men's mental health.

Just to remind you all that Chewbacca “remains decidedly apolitical”
From the Star Wars Visual Encyclopaedia: 

CHEWBACCA
Having spent more than two centuries witnessing the rise and fall of darkness in the galaxy, Chewbacca remains decidedly apolitical. His focus is always his family, whether related by blood or by the bonds of friendship. Human lifespans are much shorter than those of Wookiees, and Chewie has had to say goodbye to many humans over the course of his long life.
But he carries their spirit with him, heartened by the knowledge that his companionship has enriched their lives to some degree. Chewie's honor family now encompasses Rey, Poe, and Finn, for each of these new-generation heroes have meant so much to Han and Leia.

I came up with some more inane bullshit for everyone to argue about!
(September 23, 2026 at 10:44am)
Fake opinions to argue over…
- Never turn left on a first date.
- Every kindergarten student should have an unpaid internship.
- The periodic table is too sexual.
- Bigfoot should be allowed to vote.
- Having a dream is the same as reading a book.
- You can wear a crop top to a funeral if the deceased person was hot when they died.

happy bisexuality awareness day
A cover of Newsweek featuring three people standing together, shadow across their faces. The cover strapline reads: 'Bisexuality: not gay, not straight, a new sexual identity emerges'
Photoshopped over this - extremely well, you'd have to say - is an image of Spider-man with his spider-sense going off.
