The Rebellion had so much better healthcare than the Republic for its active duty service members. Luke's artificial hand was so much better quality than Anakin's. A testament to how undervalued Anakin was to the Jedi Order.

Got to meet @davidwcollins.bsky.social and #BradRau at SWCelebration. Really cool guys and also big fans of @joehoganart.bsky.social's Art of the Umbara Arc of the Clone Wars. Then again, aren't we all? #SWCelebration

FYI for anyone using #Microsoft365: Your "Friends" at #microsoft will try to automatically charge you $30 more per year for them adding their AI garbage to your product. You can go into your billing and "downgrade" your service to what you originally signed-up for though, so yeah you should do this.

Confirmed that if you've had the @nintendo Switch Online Service for a year and it lapsed, you can sign-up again and enter the lottery for #switch2 It didn't allow me to enter it at first, then I signed-up again and it let me in.

SWITCH2 Console Region/Language locked? Do we not learn our lessons of what made the last console successful? #switch2

As a Tranzor Z fan in my youth, there were no toys available that I knew of, as import hobby stores were something I knew nothing about. However my next door neighbor friend had a Shogun Warrior of great Mazinger. Had to get this.

Does an all gold Retro Freak appeal to anyone?

Tried to report a fascist bot account on Twitter and this happens… so is this the freedom of speech thing Musk-olini was talking about?

Ah Daiso, you so crazy! #CouqueDasses

Anybody wanna wanga (power battle)? Apparently I got this kit with whatever game I bought at the time Jedi Power Battles bombed at my local Electronics Boutique. It’s on my kid’s bike key for the past 10 years now.

Time for the time honored tradition of my washing machine wishing me a Merry Christmas as I set the towels to wash & dry overnight. #japan #japanlife

Little things living in Japan.

I wanted to get the same pixelated tiles as my in-laws when we built our house; unfortunately they stopped making them due to costs.

Resealing packs are so Japan

Tempted to do a button swap as I like the North American concave buttons, but like the SFC color. I wonder if anyone makes/sells blue & green concave Y&X buttons.

Re-watching Game of Thrones. Looks like the Shadow Keep was modeled after the mega-library that Samwell gets to do his training in Season 6 Episode 10.

Supporting @thatkevinsmith.bsky.social 's the 4:30 Movie because it was offered to buy immediately at a reasonable price, and I was the kid who would movie hope for a whole-ass day in the 80's with my neighborhood friends.
