Ashyr,

You should definitely watch Andor, it’s perhaps some of the best Star Wars content ever made. It is the only piece of the Disney content that can stand beside the original trilogy and, perhaps, has more to say. It’s very good.

I haven’t bothered with Mandalorian season 3, but seasons 1 and 2 were good in different ways. Based on initial responses, I don’t think I’ll ever watch season 3.

Ashyr,

When you eventually do watch it, I’d love to hear your thoughts.

Ashyr,

There’s no power grid to blame, but our condensate line froze, so no furnace heat for a while, yay.

Ashyr,

I don’t get the Kirby lore reference at all. Is it actually that deep?

Ashyr,

Dude, if you introduced them, were present at the proposal and officiated their wedding, you’re a lifelong friend even if they don’t invite you on their honeymoon.

Ashyr,

I genuinely don’t know what’s real and what isn’t.

Ashyr,

That’s such a great point.

Ashyr,

This is top-notch meme-work.

Ashyr,

I love everything about this particular comic. I think it would have been lost on me, reading it as a kid.

Ashyr,

Little known fact, but nature abhors a vacuum and hot dogs.

Ashyr,

Clearly aliens must have been involved in it’s construction. These techniques are too advanced for ancient humans.

Ashyr,

I trust you’ll find it a healing process. Most importantly, be patient with yourself.

Ashyr,

According to my perspective, having autonomy is core to being human and most religious structures actively work to squash autonomy and force conformity. I think that is harmful for everyone.

For me, it’s taken time to even recognize how hurt I was and I’m still going through a healing process.

Ashyr,

Thank you, the same to you as well.

Ashyr,

I very much doubt you’ll find anyone here who discourages you from stepping away from organized religion.

I’m a former Christian pastor on a hiatus from church life, but in no way done with being a Christian in my private life.

I believe the Bible boils religion down to three basic life roles for every individual person to follow: priest, steward, and keeper.

  1. As a priest, every person is meant to determine how they ought best to live.
  2. As steward they are to take care of the world around them in accordance with their beliefs.
  3. As their “brother’s keeper” they should work to ensure everyone else is free from coercion to believe and live how they think is best.

When people function in all three roles they are revealing the “image of God”.

Live your best life and help others do the same to the best of your ability. Or, as James the brother of Jesus, said, true religion is this: “to look after orphans and widows in their distress and to keep oneself from being polluted by the world.”

Ashyr,

Not sure he could have kept them off the boat.

Ashyr, (edited )

Yeah, not sure if you’re intending to be combative, but not every Christian believes that flood narrative is literal historical account.

I was just being a little silly.

Ashyr,

Really cool analysis, thank you.

Ashyr,

I really appreciate the in-universe analysis presented here. Thanks.

Ashyr,

I actually really like this thought. That never occurred to me before.

Ashyr,

What’s with Klingons using cloaking technology?

Isn’t that a pretty dishonorable way to fight? How do they square that circle?

Ashyr,

Enrico Colantoni is legitimately one of the most likeable actors I’ve ever seen. Even when he’s the villain, I find myself rooting for him.

Ashyr,

While that may be true, I’d suspect that the non standardized nature of everything back then and the lack of plastic bits and bobs, meant that it likely had to be semi-permanently installed.

Ashyr,

He would still have to hear himself. Truly, the worst fate.

Ashyr,

His name is J. Erkhoff. I see what you did there.
