Ageism

Dr. Alex Powell (@/APowellLaw)

The idea that someone cannot make autonomous decisions about their own life below the age of 25 is a direct threat to the autonomy of all young people. What separates gender from access to abortion or the right to vote?

This is a very dangerous and harmful proposal.

Kay And Skittles (@/kayandskittles)

It’s significant that in a world where older generations have profoundly different political objectives (and far more political power) than younger people, we’re seeing this "think of the children" bs feeding seamlessly into "people under 25 are actually children".

Aside from some niche extremist groups, the right has utterly failed to capture the minds of younger people who have so little material reason to be invested in the current system. So plan B is just to deny them autonomy and the right to basic decision making.

If it should become any kind of legal precedent that under 25’s can’t consent to medical procedures deemed to be non-essential, using a vulnerable marginalised group as a wedge to get the door open, what comes next?

Under 25’s already get a smaller minimum wage in this country, there’s already an established current of thought that they’re not "real" adults yet. If that becomes further entrenched it would be hard NOT to ask "wait, why do we let them vote?".

And these legal structures will influence how people see themselves! We’ve already had a generation of young adults who won’t shut up about "adulting", imagine how infantilised they’d become if they were literally legally children at 24.

No it’s just that the mobile forms of every website are objectively worse. And it’s much easier to price compare when you can have multiple tabs open at once and then quickly flip back-and-forth. (comment courtesy of @arceus-out-of-the-waves)

Listen, as someone who once booked a train to Penn Station (NY) instead of Penn Station (Baltimore), I'm not ashamed of this. I need to see ALL the details. (comment courtesy of @kateeorg)

PSA that some companies will raise their prices IF you access the site from a phone (and especially low battery one) while buying a ride, Uber, flight, taxi, etc. (comment courtesy of @likorys-shimenawa)

.

Because phones fuck up and mobile websites are almost always dumbed down, either hiding or missing regular site features entirely. It's also easier to type and deal with page issues on a laptop. Everything loads faster and you can control popups and avoid misclicks. (comment courtesy of @ere-the-sun-rises)

.

Thinking about this more, for me it's a security thing. On my laptop I've got Firefox running with scripts scrutinized as a default, and other security add ons. On e commerce sites I'm conscious about letting the bare minimum of scripts run to make search function and allow credit card processing. I just can't be arsed to do all that on a phone even if I'm running FF for Android (comment courtesy of @gorevidalchukander)

Millenial Falcon is such a cash money name!

I unno what meme this is, but I’m here for this.

[cuprohastes]

That holiday Special

This one.

Long, boring, snarky.

I heard it’s super bad so obviously I have to watch it for Bea Arthur and the introduction of Jango Fett’s little lad and the Glup Shitto cameo.

First impressions… Grumpy grandpa Wookie needs to punch bratty Wookie’s lights out. The intro is where the last 40 years of Kashyyk architecture has come from, I guess. It also answers the question, do Wookies have boobs? (No).

Sadly and tragically, bratty Wookie fails to plummet off the balcony while using it as a balance beam. Such a tragedy.

The next scene is weird. Granpa Wookie turns on the holochess table which apparently has shitty circus mode.

This raises a question: If all the Starwars arcade games are all wire frame rail-shooters… but they have colour holographic games, then WTF? Is everyone just an atrocious retrogamer for that one year 30,000 years ago when they hadn’t invented filled polygons?

Note: The Star Wars universe had Jedi for 1000 generations which is about 25,000 years and existed for a long time prior to that, when space travel was also easy. From the invnetion of Agriculture to Cyberpunk 2077 was less than 12,000 years. So everyone in the Star Wars universe is just extremely shitty at computer games.

Like all the TV in the late70s and early eighties, it is wildly and unnecessarily horny. There are lots of crotch shots. And costumes that are crimes against humanity. And the Furry fandom. Lots of tails and thongs.

Since the Star Wars universe hasn’t invented mobile phones, they put a video call in to Luke Skywalker who helpfully reveals the names are Mala, Itchy and… Lumpy.

Checks out.

Luke has the biggest vape in 3 systems

I don’t know who was working the makeup for this thing but Luke has been replaced by Ellen Degeneres

Mala: I’m worried that my husband, who hangs around with a notorious flake on a starship that’s a known hunk of junk, and who is hunted by the Empire and about 14 different criminal organisations, may be in trouble. Luke: You’d be prettier if you smiled. R2: [Immediately tries to murder Luke. It’s justified]

Meanwhile… On Wookie Planet C, an imperial gunnery officer is shopping for souvenirs. Darth Vader threatens to do a door-to-door search of several entire planets. Lumpy is still a brat. On TV there’s a drag queen cooking bantha loins. The Wookies have a flat screen TV. Why they’re using CRTs for everything else is not explained. Maybe they shop at Wayland-Utani Screens

Nobody loses any fingers. This is a surprise.

Then the Imperial Muppet shows up on screen and announces a blockade. Fun! He doesn’t get to finish because the foley artist over dubs him with a door knock FX. It’s the shopkeeper. He drops a couple of one liners that were probably hilarious back in the day.

The shopkeeper is weirdly intent on kissing everyone. I think we know who’s trying to keep Mala’s bed warm while Chewie is off yelling at Han.

Everyone gets a present. Mala gets a… thing. Lumpy gets… a thing. Itchy gets porn, apparently. But it’s early 80s TV so it’s a handful of glitter and a bunch of dancers with socks on their hands and some guided meditation. Then horny ASMR.

And now… Leia’s office. Good ol’ General Organa, the only person who’s not dicking about.

Mala: Chewie and han haven’t arrived Leia: Well… you know Han is a screw up and probably flew face-first into that imperial blockade. Hey, put the random shopkeeper on: Dude, look after Mala or I’ll make you fellate a gundark. Leia out.

Shopkeeper: Gimme a Wookie Uckie.

Ok this dude is definitely into WILFs.

And then the fire nation attacked Han arrived in a cardboard cut-out of the Millenial Falcon. Just in time for the EMPIRE to show up and walk vaguely around the room scowling. Itchy show the nice officer your porn.

This officer likes to snap his finger a lot.

Shopkeep loses his cool. First bit of good acting in the special!

Imperial Gunner stops to watch Jefferson Aeroplane. The officer is totes cool with it. And why not? One of his storm troopers just swatted two Wookies out of the way. Where was THAT guy on Endor?
