Three Random Thoughts (aka Randolph Mantooth!)

[anarky]

Hasbro does dumb shit. I actually took pics at two stores a couple of weeks ago of full of a few dozen of three different Lando figures. Everyone loves the guy. He doesn't sell. Especially with three available at once, and two of those being reissues. Same with Greef Karga. Dude pegwarmed hard. They keep releasing stupid shit like carbonized versions of the same figure, and just announced he's getting a Season 2 resculpt.

I don't think fans overall are racist, but releasing so many low-demand figures of Black characters makes it look that way.

Jannah, though, was just a boring, shit character. If they want anyone to ever give a fuck about her, they need to backtrack hard and say she was indeed born as Kendara Calrissian.

Also, they need to make it more widely known that Shadow of the Sith confirms Lando ended up with the woman he fell for in Last Shot, meaning his missing daughter is half Twi'lek.

1. Basic cable almost always has a Marvel superhero movie playing.
2. If a Marvel movie isn't on, it is probably because they are showing a DC superhero movie.
3. In the unlikely event that neither a Marvel nor DC movie is on basic cable, one of them is probably showing a Transformers movie.

Or a Fast and/or Furious movie.

Or the old standby….James Bond.

Is basic cable still a thing? I thought it had been replaced by subscribing to a dozen different streaming services.

[anarky]

When my mom moved in last year, she had trouble figuring out the streaming services.

We considered getting her a TV and getting cable again, but it basically doesn't exist, at least not here. You can't simply turn on a TV and get live feed. The "cable" company provides live service through an app and it costs more than it ever did (needless to say, for less).

We just spent more effort teaching her how to turn on Netflix. I'm still not quite sure she understands that everything is on whenever you want it.

1. Emmanuel Lewis is still alive.

2. Millennials have no idea who Andy Capp is.

3. If Tupac hadn’t died young, he’d probably be doing sitcoms, hosting Jeopardy, and making podcasts with his best friend, Dame Judy Dench or some shit.

2. There are a number of Americans that will wake up tomorrow morning with less fingers than they had when they woke up today.

Fingers? I once again underestimated people's stupidity. San Antonio man dies after lighting firework on his head, police say

I forgot about both Andy Capp and Emmanuel Lewis.

Florence Pugh wore a see-through dress to some awards ceremony. She got a lot of flak from guys on social media. Men who were complaining and insulting her.

What the actual fuck? I can't even ask mockingly if they're gay; that woman is so hot she makes straight women's panties moist without even actually revealing any skin. Seeing her nipples should be the high point of anyone's day, even if they had ice cream!

[Tom Foolery]

She was in some movie about English Knights(I think Tim Chalomet and Robert Pattinson were also in it, but I might be getting movies jumbled) before she got “famous” and I’m pretty sure she had a nude scene in it.

So we got two cats today, nearly identical sisters. Here are three suggestions I had that were overruled:

Lemmy and Ronnie
Nathaniel and Superfly

And, since the easiest way to tell the difference is one looks like she has a white mustache, Krennic and Yularen.

[Ran]

I'd go with the Weird Al "Albuquerque" reference.

[Diabolical]

How about names that describe every cat: Useless and Pointless?

[anarky]

I want to make a kids' show. Just a typical PBS/Nick Jr show about a bunch of cartoon kids or animals that teach life lessons through whimsical stories and songs.

I don't really care much about the details, except for one: one main character has to be named Dickless Steve. Aside from other characters referring to him by name, there's never any acknowledgement of his name being... unusual. Is he really dickless? Why Steve? Who the fuck knows?

[Diabolical]

Sounds like Blue's Clues.
