  • If that is what is characteristic of Luke Skywalker, then they certainly changed the character and the fan page is it is appropriate.

    Throwing out the Literary Extended Universe, but kinda of sort of keeping elements of it is what has made it so bad.

    There were really important things that happened in the world in the LEU. Which continues establishing who the characters and the world of Star wars.

    It’s should be no surprise the fan base is so divided. If you have only seen that Han Shot First that gives you a very different perspective on Han Solo. If you have read about Mara Jade, or C’Boath, Grand Admiral Thrawn, the Katana Fleet then having their names spoken in the cinematic universe gives you a very different vision of what’s going on on screen because you have a or existing understanding that you can’t just forget about us they don’t actually explain who those people are in the on screen version of them.

    Lucas never should have licenced stories that were not going to be okay if the cannon, then go ahead and steal the names of those non canon characters or events if he didn’t want to fracture the fanbase. But they did and now it’s a mess.

    That being said there is now opportunity to do Star wars legends movies since they already disassociated those stories from canonical Star wars, which is great and they should absolutely do that.

    I prefer chronological order from the perspective of the contents of the media. But in torn because I also want them in the order the author/writers came up with them.

    That being said for large bodies of works with multiple writers, like the battletech universe, i enjoy not having spoilers more

    Systemic problems that are being used as a foundation for the powers in charge can’t be changed until those people are gone. These people use this problems to stay in power.

    It’s naive to think removing them isn’t the best first step to getting to a better place.

    Aaaaaand if you have a better place to start. A better single action other than removing them please fucking share it so that we can also start looking into that as an option instead of keeping that secret information from doing any good.


  • You cannot tell If there is any sugar or sweetener of any kind in that drink, however statistically likely it has it or not.

    Secondly if that is a cold brew coffee which is what it looks like to me, you are absolutely incorrect. Cream isn’t milk, and it makes a coffee look exactly like that. Most non dairy creamers also look the same way. Almond milk in my experience is a bit thinner and is more like actual milk than cream or oat milk, but still that cup looks like it is mostly coffee and ice


  • I just watched them make my drink. They used a separate container to mix my iced drink before putting it into the cup. I specifically ask for light ice or most of the cup is full of ice(I do not know how that affects actual volume due to tapering + not filling to brim). I know this because I have a tendency to drink too fast and that’s how I noticed when I have a half a cup of ice left over, And why I ask for light ice now.

    I do think it’s a rip off but not everyone drinks the same way and the cold cups are different volumes as well, possibly to offset the use of ice
