Yeah it's a special game, and a masterclass in "show, don't tell" exposition.

Good for them. Wealthy owners should be paying for stadiums, not extorting taxpayers.

Yep! I have one that I use for music when I go running. It's over 10 years old now, and still works fine. Phones are too heavy for that use case.

I did an MBA a few years into my professional career, and I think overall it was a great deal. I was fortunate enough to have it paid for by my employer at the time. That particular program was geared toward working professionals, so the classroom time was just evenings and weekends. It checked the box for me being able to say I have a graduate degree on job applications, so I'd say it was worth it.

Good for them.

The ysalamiri! Yes indeed.

This is me. The Heir to the Empire trilogy is one of my favorite book series. I read every bit of the old EU I could get my hands on in the 90s. Quality definitely varies across different books and authors, but I think that era of content is worthwhile if you're a Star Wars fan.
