Right?!

Oof. Painful truf.

Could you unpack the Why?

Preesh.

Fuck sakes. Those features were free on my 2020 Telluride.

Yes.

Yeeeeeesh. I am all for pivoting, and being flexible. But as some point, rebrand if you’re going to keep changing, Flipboard.

It’s been 15 years, and umpteen changes in intent and medium. They must have been granted a specific patent they are trying to lever or nest upon.

Yeah i think this was penned in one of the very first EU novels. Mid to late 90s. Might even be part of the original Thrawn trilogy, as I have Yaspin in my brain attached to the memory. Might also be a KJA novel. Darksaber trilogy maybe?

Edit - suffice to say, if memory serves, Han sees it for what it is, and stays for princess reasons.

Han was already a Captain of a ship and crew, capable of that kind of complex ‘Generalling’ as demonstrated by supporting Luke’s run on the trench.

Luke was a flyboy kid off the farm, albeit a savant.

Edit. And further into the lore, the rebels would have needed people capable of leading other large groups of people to success. So they would tack on promotions or immediate ranks to retain that talent, but at levels they could use and trust.

Promoting a savant to General and giving him whatever groups of troops to achieve goals, ia much riskier than promoting the already somewhat proven Captain.

Luke was lined up for General in the short term anyways, iirc. At least in the EU canon.

Cover your bases, wear an eye patch to the library. 😉

I was just coming to speculate the same thing. Fellow ginger?

Edit - i actually have a low grade fear of going to thr dentist because it is often painful or traumatic. Finally had to tell my dentists that I have a dental fear from pain due to meds wearing off fast.

Canada is within the continent of North America.

The concept of ‘America’ these days does not apply to continental plates, and you know that as well as i do.

You know what I meant, and you are arguing disingenuously. We can all see it.

🙄

As someone who has self immolated in order to bring sexual assault to light… I see all the signs of darvo in the responses from LMG and Linus, and it turns my stomache.

Poster asked america, you provided canadian stats. Just fyi’s

And as others have pointed out… what she said falls perfectly in line with what someone afraid of recriminations would say, when trying to quietly exit a toxic workplace.

Seriously… are you Linus? I am failing to see why you have so much skin in this.

Both sides HAVE spoken. The fire was stoked by the shitty LMG response.

The other side has spoken, and Linus is attempting to plaster over things instead of addressing them head on.

They have spoken. Both sides had their say. This is the reaction to that.

Agreed. Also thanks to you for noticing and hilighting the value of their response. An equally awesome move.
