Trying to decide if I should just give up the ghost on the hair that has lingered on the top or should I let it stay?

Post from Nate Taylor on Threads. The text reads “when bad guys don’t think of themselves as the bad guys”. The image is a single panel comic of Palpatine, Darth Vader, and Luke Skywalker. Palpatine is pointing at Luke accusingly. He is saying, “No we’re the Rebels. You guys are the Empire.” Vader says, “And did you ever even say thank you?” Luke looks startled.

I dipped out early when they migrated to another bar. And the bar we started at is getting rid of all its Star Wars stuff. It was mostly gone. The shelf on the wall used to be full of helmets and stuff.

Anyone else find their Mandalorian & Grogu — which is supposed to be out today! — delayed to next week?? #StarWars
Screenshot of an order for The Mandalorian and Grogu. It shows the order’s original ETA was August 25 but it is delayed to September 3.

So, I don't know if you've actually watched the movie because fun fact: that isn't the Empire. Anyway,

The fact that you can't see how you could make the same argument about "black" in the Death Star scene is... certainly something. And, yeah, the Supremacy was gigantic.

To me, Strange New Worlds is everything good about Star Trek. It's fun, it's thoughtful, it's occasionally philosophical, and it's not afraid to be unserious sometimes. It honors all the Trek that came before it and finds new ideas to explore. 🖖🏻

Whoa! I was going to post something about how I’m not seeing enough people talking about this saber (and the character wielding it) and then I came across this! via: www.instagram.com/p/DcGHUSFqxJf/ #StarWars
two images: the first is an illustration of an armored character riding a creature that looks like a dinosaur. the character is holding a red bladed lightsaber with part of the blade between two parts of the hilt. the second image is a scene from the Ahsoka season 2 trailer showing a character holding a similar lightsaber but the blade is a teal shade.The weapon design was originally created as part of the 1995 “Design an Alien” competition in Star Wars Galaxy Magazine, where fans were invited to design their own creatures and characters inspired by the Original Trilogy.

Mark Rehkopf’s “War Dragon Rider” entry won first place in the 16 and up division, and his original artwork was later published in Star Wars Galaxy Magazine #7.

Nearly 30 years later, a lightsaber design born from a fan competition may have found its way back into the galaxy. 🤯

Just saw The End of Oak Street. I went in knowing the bare minimum. Didn’t even watch a trailer. I wasn’t 100% sure what to expect and yet I got basically what I wanted out of it. If you’re a fan of dinosaurs, sci-fi, the 1980s, Anne Hathaway, or Ewan McGregor, check it out! 🦖 🦕

Like, cool, now not only are they stealing content and posting it out of context, they’re having the slop machines fabricate descriptions of the out of context videos/photos. I’m sure that won’t contribute to the misinformation and literacy crisis at all!

Post from Threads asking if the mutant gene carries a flair for the dramatic. Post includes an image from an X-Men animated series with the caption “My god, you are dramatic.” 

Mike Draco replies, it must!

First time attending Stern Grove Festival. I am not a fan. Won’t be doing this again. I’m clearly not the audience for this.
• 1-2+ hour wait in a line with no shade just to get in.

• Once you’re in, there’s a 2 hour wait in the sun with no shade before the show starts.

• The pre-show music is LOUD which means everyone else around you is LOUDER.

• Basically no actual seats in shade anywhere in the whole place. There are 2 benches by the restrooms that I saw. I’m sitting on a curb currently.

Nine years ago this week, Disney revealed a huge detailed model of a new Star Wars land for Disneyland at D23: what would come to be named Galaxy's Edge. It's interesting to look close & see details that changed in the final iteration! Some features match concept art in the Art of Galaxy's Edge!
