5 months agoI practically gave up on anything related to Star Wars after Rogue One, and only checked out the Obi-Wan Kenobi series for old time’s sake and still found it wanting.

2 years agoThey’re paying taxes just by buying things because of VAT, they said. That only counts if you didn’t ask for the money to buy anything. Otherwise it’s your lender paying for everything and not you, you freeloading twit. The only thing you’re capable of generating instead of income are asinine opinions on how things should…
