Do you shave your head with it? If so, send links to brand etc. I'm a baldie and thus have to do a shave every few days, and find it easier in the shower. I just don't want to cut myself - I once shaved off a flap of skin (granted it was ironically with a Harry's, had to switch back to Gillette after that sadly because the Mach 5 never cut me like that).
I feel like we need a :blowback: emote. Maybe the tactical espionage podcast logo from last season?
Lots of versions here
Yeah very reminiscent of the ROTJ sand dunes fight in some ways, lots of chaos even tho it's less kinetic (the back and forth between the barge makes that one way cooler in many ways)
The throne room battle was actually sick as well and yeah snoke getting smoked was 10/10
That would have been actually awesome. Should have let him cook
I've always been very pro Last Jedi - there's some shaggy elements to it (in particular, low speed chase is kind of silly) but overall I actually really like it - Luke and Rey's arcs are both good. I also really like "rey from nowhere" and the fact they recanted all of it was truly dogshit storytelling.
Yeah I'm with you that this won't last - he can't shake the old habits. It was just funny that he had a moment of lucidity in his normal horseshit. Because he's right - the party rebuilding around the working class would be it's future.
I work in a university and have some curriculum Input even though I'm a non tenure track faculty. We are reworking the textbook this year and I'm one of the writers. Curent stuff is very libbed "rhetoric is like the courts, look at this good lib decision" shit.
Needless to say I'm gonna cook because the courts won't save the libs now. The "what is to be done" framing is going to be front and center.
The Communists disdain to conceal their views and aims. They openly declare that their ends can be attained only by the forcible overthrow of all existing social conditions. Let the ruling classes tremble at a Communistic revolution. The proletarians have nothing to lose but their chains. They have a world to win.
As someone who works in pre/early modern lit, this is a good post and the real key I think is here:
However, the way you're talking about the story makes it sound like an explicitly homosexual text, which it isn't.
I haven't read OP's essay, but in general this is the big thing with gender/sexuality and pre modern texts. Noncery aside, reminds us that these things are historically determined. If you want to read homosexual desire into a pre modern texts you need to basically do the work to explain how that desire fits into the material conditions of the medieval period.
Btw, this is actually rooted in a Marxist approach - sex and desire are not trans-historical but always determined by the material conditions of the historical moment. If you're gonna read same sex desire into Bisclarivet (which, as you note, is actually a commonplace) you have to do the work to read it into the text and articulate how we see something like same sex desire in a period where this didn't really have a systematic/ideological/cultural sanction.
Glad someone else had the post so I didn't have to.
Blerg. I'll check some videos. My current batch of cartridges is almost gone and if I can do this comfortably I don't mind switching.
