Judgment at Nuremberg-level trials for the Grand Admirals and any number of Moffs and other viziers, play it out as a courtroom drama with flashbacks if you REALLY have a Disney-mandated minimum of action scenes
*cracks knuckles* what i unironically really wanted to see from post-original trilogy Star Wars content was the New Republic putting Imperials on trial for war crimes and also rebuilding a more durable galactic government whose bureaucracy actually functioned to improve the lives of citizens

They will try to tip the scales however they can. But there will be elections, and in many places, most, they'll be run fairly. So you work towards that, among whatever else. It's fine to bleed a while. But get up. Get up. Always get up. There is only ever a new phase of the battle.

Here’s a comment for the people who are upset that MN hasn’t charged Jonathan Ross already:
If you just Leeeroy Jenkins this shit you will lose and you will empower fascism and murder.
It is indescribably hard to prosecute cops for murder. It is even hard when the murder is ON VIDEO.

Curtis Yarvin is beloved of people of mediocre mind and weak character. They want to go Nazi, but they don’t have the cobbles to do it without a gloss of mediocre pseudo-intellectual gibberish supporting it.

Curtis Yarvin has written a very long screed in defense of his post in which he said, “Hitler spoke the truth.”
A sampling of select portions is below and includes, in reference to Jewish people, the words:
“The only way to tell is the name and the nose.”

One of my more controversial opinions is that the US needs to significantly raise taxes to the tune of a couple % of GDP right now, even before any expansive social democratic reforms, and that means you—yes you, dear highly educated professional—will need to pay up, not just nebulous billionaires.

sheesh, the only thing worse than getting kicked out of the polycule is finding out via jira ticket 😣
![Screenshot of an email:

To: me
Good morning Kimberly! =^uwu^=;;
I’m sorry to hear that you’re having trouble logging into Jellyfin! It looks like your SSO account was indeed deactivated on 2025 Dec 15.
According to our records,
1. On or about 2025 Nov 15, you were broken up with by ___, who noted this as a “final break” on vis event report sheet. I’m also seeing that Ve ticked the “Unilateral” box, meaning it isn’t contestable.
2. Our Salesforce shows you aren’t close to any other polycule members
Unfortunately, our solo-poly access policy doesn’t allow us to extend resources to unpartnered members after the 30 day grace period following your break. This includes entertainment resources (Jellyfin / *darr / nzbget / Pornhub for Enterprise™ seat), as well as O365™, Adobe CC™, and shell access on the Nix clusters. We’re so sorry for your loss, cutie!! 😭💜
If you have any questions, you can reply to this email to generate another ticket, or you can contact zzzoeee@ from our Partner Infra team (note: three Zs and three Es in their LDAP, we have a lot of Zoes here!)

In the century leading up to 1975, nearly 6000 freighters went down in the Great Lakes.
The Edmund Fitzgerald was the last.
The last. In 50 years, not a single commercial freighter has been lost in the Great Lakes.
Why?
It's NOAA. Of course it's NOAA.
