Now I’m a bit jealous!

Did it not work as intended, though?

Implying I don’t also hate people my age and people older than me.

It’s pretty obvious that the entire comic talks specifically about the US, so I didn’t think it was necessary to specify that in my comment.

That cop is a really good listener for a cop.

Where I live, cakes aren’t really a christmas thing … I suppose cookies might not really be “candy”, but they’re definitely sweets.

Are you saying christmas is not a candy holiday? I’m too old to go trick-or-treating, but I’m certainly not too old to buy all the tasty christmas sweets!

It would probably make more sense to ask the bio teacher for sex ed than economics.

Arguably defense will always be necessary until we actually achieve world peace, you can’t just unilaterally start acting as if you won’t get attacked. So the vanguard party thing is pretty fundamentally at odds with how the world works, if relinquishing control is actually the goal.

Most of the issues with video games come from either game-related social media (e.g. bullying, political indoctrination, or just the massive time sink that MMOs and other multiplayer games can be which has an element of peer pressure) or stuff that is relatively easy to police on a per-game-basis (e.g. gambling, extreme contents). You can certainly waste a lot of time with single player games, too, but at that point we might as well not allow children to go home from school at all.

He clearly proved that he wasn’t ready to be a master - it’s not like a martial arts rank that you mostly just get because you’re skilled, they also want you to be able to embody the ideals they stand for (flawed as they may be).

They certainly could have trained him better, but that makes them idiots, not assholes. But first and foremost, their most important failure was not detecting that Palpatine was a sith.

Mundi had a special exemption because his species was going extinct, and it was always supposed to be about attachment anyway - it’s plausible that Mundi was able to produce offspring without personal attachment. Anakin could never have done it like that.

He was turned by the guy who turned Count Dooku, who was already an old man when it happened. Anakin never stood a chance.

We should ban this guy’s propaganda site.
