  1. Cocoa and dark beer is my key to a good chili!
  2. Andor is only coming next year, I think The only one coming out this year is the Skeleton Crew, I think! Anyway, some of my thoughts about the finale:
  3. You and StarWarsTheory both seem to forget that Legends are not established lore, and honestly, it never was. Disney didn't decanonize it, simply because it was never canon in the first place. You know what George Lucas himself said about it? “There are two worlds here; There’s my world, which is the movies, and there’s this other world that has been created, which I say is the parallel universe—the licensing world of the books, games and comic books.” - George Lucas, Cinescape, July 2001 “I don’t read that stuff. I haven’t read any of the novels. I don’t know anything about that world. That’s a different world than my world. But I do try to keep it consistent. The way I do it now is they have a Star Wars Encyclopedia. So if I come up with a name or something else, I look it up and see if it has already been used. When I said [other people] could make their own Star Wars stories, we decided that, like Star Trek, we would have two universes: My universe and then this other one. They try to make their universe as consistent with mine as possible, but obviously they get enthusiastic and want to go off in other directions.” - George Lucas, Starlog, August 2005 But instead, the fandom menace gets obsessed with children stories to such a degree that they start nitpicking on things like a random side characters alleged birth date or screws and bricks being used in manufacturing of Death Star parts, lol.
  4. So you have been watching and getting "your" opinions from him, lol. That's all I needed to know, and it makes a lot of sense now.
  5. You either didn't watch it and just repeat what morons like StarWarsTheory peddle on their channel for clicks, or you actually watched it and didn't understand anything, because almost everything in your post is objectively wrong, lol.
  6. Fuck YES! I just finished watching the episode, will post more tomorrow, but I think it's fair to say that it was very satisfying.
  7. Simón; Carvajal, Le Normand, Laporte, Cucurella; Rodri, Fabián; Yamal, Olmo, Williams; Morata
  8. Yeah, this has turned into a big fucking failure, lol I hope they update their stupid game soon...
  9. All assumptions, no facts.
  10. I didn't say you were blaming leftists, but just go read the comments on any social media, and you'll see that it is definitely the case. People just like jumping to conclusions, regardless of their political affiliation. Hence why I found it quite amusing when his republican voter status was reported. Can you link to the said video of his? Haven't seen it anywhere.
  11. Why do you try reverse searches if you can simply go to the usa.gov site and follow the steps to check voter registration status yourself? The image doesn't seem to be manipulated, and it certainly hasn't been removed, considering that all reputable media sources are reporting the exact same thing. Essentially, his political affiliation doesn't even matter, because it's an act of a person with serious mental health issues, first and foremost. Not too surprising, considering the mental health crisis of that society and the access to guns that they have. Just found it amusing how the first reaction was to blame "leftists" and whatnot, so maybe question those defence mechanisms first.
  12. Imagine the outrage if the Germans would sing Bomben auf Engelland, lol.
  13. Yeah, it's honestly annoying. But I also checked the Kicker fantasy games, and they haven't started yet either, so I think we just have to be patient and wait until they update it properly. I think probably after the Euros
  14. And yet he's a registered Republican voter lol.
  15. I wash my hands with whatever temperature water comes out of my faucet when I turn it on. So, usually lukewarm
  16. @Viva la FCB have you tried "sign in with google" option?
  17. Can you try to register using this link: https://www.bundesliga.com/en/bundesliga/account/register
  18. Yeah, I noticed that as well... Will take time to update. Stupid DFL
  19. Ahsoka Season 2 is actually in development, so no, it's not "canned".
  20. Alright, so here we go... The new fantasy Bundesliga game for the upcoming season is here! Website: https://fantasy.bundesliga.de/ TF365 league: https://fantasy.bundesliga.com/invitations/league_invite/C8RA7Y This time, we are going with the official fantasy game of Bundesliga, so the rules are slightly different, but I think it will be easier for everyone, and it doesn't require too much micro-management, so won't take too much time and will also keep you in the game even if you miss a few matchdays here and there. Here's the overview of the main rules: every player starts with a budget of 150m, and has to choose 15 players for their squad (2 goalkeepers, 5 defenders, 5 midfielders, 3 forwards). You can change your team as many times as you want before the season starts. After that, you get 5 free transfers between every two matchdays, in case you want to make any changes you have to choose your formation and your starting XI before the kickoff of the first match of a matchday. Important! The game uses automatic substitutions, meaning that your substitute players will be automatically subbed in and get you points as well, if they perform better than a starting player in the same position. So no fiddling with your team necessary, and you can still earn points even if you forget to put someone in your starting XI you have to choose a Star Player every matchday, and the points they earn will be multiplied by 1.5 your formation and starting XI are automatically saved and carried over to the next matchday (if you don't make any changes), which means that even if you don't have time or simply forget to update it, you will still be earning points. So no penalties for missing some matchdays, which keeps you competitive until the end players will earn points based on their performances, you can see the point overview here: https://fantasy.bundesliga.de/page/scoring_rules The new season starts tomorrow, in around 18 hours. You can select players for your squad at any point before the season starts! Hope you'll all join @Rick @Faithcore @Stan @Viva la FCB @Tommy @londonerlilie @Rucksackfranzose @Michael @Coma @Pyfish and anyone else who wants to join, obviously! @Rucksackfranzose I know you said you're out, but since this one doesn't require you to remember to change your team, maybe you'll change your mind
  21. I would have really liked the episode if it was not the penultimate episode in Season 1. I thought it was good, but unless the finale is 2 hours long, I don't see how they can bring a satisfying end to the season without cramming too much of everything or leaving it on a stupid cliffhanger.
  22. I have just read the interview with the showrunner, and she confirmed that the unknown planet is actually NOT Ahch-To! She also said that the main point is that cortosis is being mined on this planet, which leads us to something very exciting, if it is true: In Legends, Bal'demnic was the planet with rich cortosis deposits, and had a very similar geography as was shown in the latest episode - rocky, island like, surrounded by oceans. But the most exciting part about it is that Bal'demnic became important when its cortosis deposits were discovered by Darth Tenebrous and Darth Plagueis!!! Which, in turn, gives me hope that Darth Tenebrous will be introduced as the Sith Lord in this show! I actually started re-reading the Darth Plagueis book today to see if I can find any more links and spin potential new theories, lol Maybe Qimir turns out to be a canon version of Venamis, Darth Tenabrous secret apprentice that he taught in violation of The Rule of Two. That would kinda fit into the theory that he was rejected by both Jedi and then Sith, since Darth Tenebrous had Plagueis as his official apprentice already. If we add the Knights of Ren into the picture, it would actually make sense that they originated from a secret illegitimate apprentice of a Sith Lord, lol.
  23. I honestly don't know, and while I'd personally prefer that Qimir were a true Sith instead of the founder of the Knights of Ren, the hints seem to suggest that's the direction the show's going. We'll see soon enough, one way or another. Regarding the need of apprentices: Qimir seems to be hellbound on the "power of two", which reminds me a lot of the Force Dyad that Kylo Ren wanted to form with Rey. Could be something similar to what we're dealing with here
  24. And one more thing to support your theory - the Kylo Ren theme playing over the credits in this episodes, and a few times in previous episodes, too
