In today's installment of "Nick wasting time at work", we see a ROTJ storyboard that shows a female A-wing pilot called "Amelia" at the battle.

Also- the return of the nickname "tuna" for the GR75 medium transport

NSA whistleblower Thomas Drake @witnessblower.net on Epstein revelations:

“It is not merely that bad people did evil and terrible things. It is that the institutions designed to prevent those things…were captured, compromised, or rendered inert.”

Removing a post doesn’t remove the racism.

Just like redacting names doesn’t redact the truth.

Dear fellow white people

Racism doesn't always prance around in white robes and hoods.

It's your aunt Karen at the holidays, saying rancid shit at the table, while you keep silent because 'that's how she is' and you want to keep the peace.

MAKE
SOME
NOISE

Zero tolerance for that shit. Period.

This is bigger than news. This is infrastructure to attack today and everyday. #Corporations must be brought to heel. Private interest must always be superceded by public interests. Without exception.

Haven't watched For All Mankind yet?
Then watch For All Mankind. ☝️

You have 52 days left to watch 40 episodes before season 5. And the rather optimistic vibe of this alternative universe, though obviously imperfect, may be just what you need right now. 👍

So far enough of you have signed up to this in various forms that I'll be able to upgrade the payment I make to Ghost from the monthly to the annual payment and guarantee 12 months of content!
As promised recently, I'm delighted to now be launching a new monthly newsletter service which will become the home of monthly content from me regarding my work as a historian of both Star Wars and the First World War. But what does that mean?
