Correct? It's mineral water. Water in geodes is already a known phenomenon. What scientific secrets do you envision being in there?
Hatteras will say it's fake.
Why? No money goes into the slave trade. The slaver gains nothing. Surely that's the best outcome.
That would result in superpowered nepo-babies they'd be willing to do ANYTHING to protect. Too risky on multiple levels.
"Hello fellow capitalist, would you like to eat a hamburger with me?" "Da—I mean, da-rn tooting, cow-partner!"
Mandalorians kill for fortune and glory, Jedi avoid killing when possible. There's nothing in the middle ground that's a real ideology there
"The killer had an insatiable urge to" COME ON DOWN TO CRAZY CARL'S MATTRESS BARN WHERE YOU CAN (skip ad) "skin his victims alive."
Not everyone's family in Star Wars is the Brady Bunch. Not the worst idea to have your superheroes not have familial/generational trauma
Why? It's the only ethical choice. Don't put money in the slave trade, swindle the slaver instead.
Who else in the Jedi was allowed to buy slaves, associate w/their parents, marry & have kids? Ki-Adi-Mundi was an exception on the last 2.
Is there any part of Palpatine's plan that couldn't have proceeded without Vader? Seems like it would've all happened had he never been born
At the point where the Jedi have to break all their rules to placate Anakin into not being a school shooter, they should've just booted him
With enough alcohol the body stops thermoregulation, turning him into a reptile & a dangerously high BAC could have kept his blood liquid
I heard he downplayed it bc investors would pull out of a country about to be invaded. More money in Ukraine's coffers if he fibbed.
Clearly no true Scotsman.
People keep thinking the Bible condones all this when it's the Hebrews' origin story for their enemies. They're over the top bad on purpose
The difference is the prequels at least have a solid premise w/cringy execution & the sequels make less sense the more you think about them
I get the need to not be a prick, but is it gatekeeping when the people are explicitly not fans of the band, team, etc?
Z, as in "Lost Kingdom of"
Still puts money in the slave trade. Jedi become a whole new market to sell slaves to; don't even need to be able & fit to ransom them.
He also had the option to quit/be banished. Padme was worth killing kids for, but not giving up the power and prestige of his job, it seems.
How exactly? Bad look for the Jedi to buy slaves and they couldn't just take her without the bomb implanted going off.
I thought it was bc opposing segregation was a crazy leftist idea & never moving further makes it look like theyre turning conservative
A murder happened the day she, an attempted murderer, moved to town, so it's not the craziest response.
Very sly musical reference?
"Think about it Smithers, if I came into your room & started sniffing at your crotch & slobbering all over your face, what would you say?"
