    You’re all over the place. I need to direct my disdain at a single target.

    In the world of e-cigs, e-cocaine was inevitable.

    I was just reading about GRRM and in 2005, Lev Grossman (of Time) called Martin "the American Tolkien". I wonder how he feels about him now, 14 years later with only one book released. I guess HBO is to blame since HBO didn't exist to bother Tolkien during the 12 years it took him to write the LotR trilogy.

    Yeah, retrospectively, Martin probably shouldn't have been writing GOT episodes.

    What thread are we in?

    I agree Joe Biden isn't the right candidate.

    I'm sure Ole is the right person to turn around Star Wars. Eh, @epic?

    Star Wars is going in a fine direction imo. Solo was a speed bump, but, uh, everything's perfectly all right now. We're fine. We're all fine here, now, thank you. How are you?

    We've reached peak "everything is terrible". It's time to shut the boards down. Shut it down forever.

    Maybe there are a lot of desert planets not because of nature but because these advanced civilizations tend to cause desertification e.g., by stripping away all valuable natural resources, releasing greenhouse gasses.

    There, I justified the filmmakers' laziness.
