NOT TO BE CONTROVERSIAL, but are we boycotting the Patriots and all shows at Gillette Stadium as hard as we are boycotting Ed Sheeran??? Because Robert Kraft deserves the heat about 100x as much, even if Ed is being a little dick bitch for letting him dictate things.

I’m a Texan trans kid who almost died because of Ken Paxton. The world should know what he’s done. This was very difficult for me to write, but given what's at stake, I cannot bear to stay silent about what I went through at Paxton's hands. He must not be rewarded for what he's done to trans kids.

I will say again, as I said with Hunger Games when the books came out, the Scholomance series by Naomi Novik understands and dissects a moral evil at the center of our society in the same way that 1984 and Brave New World do. These books should be required reading, at the same level.

However, even this bit I disagree with somewhat in the specific context of the film--when you find out who Zendaya's character really is (it's more complicated than "Athena") it's like a gut punch. And Circe makes a compelling, quietly furious case for the unseen victims of warfare.

The 90s ended up producing all sorts of married Jedi, Jedi with multiple-apprentices, Jedi learning at any age, Jedi with families, etc. in both the ancient and modern era, leading to the awkward retcons of Luke opting not to follow prequel rules or there being “Corellian Jedi”-type exceptions.

Some of my favorite stories from that era are smuggler, military, pilot, or treasure-seeking romps. There just wasn’t enough known about the Jedi to make it the storytelling focus, beyond starting neophytes like Luke whose inexperience was the focus.
