Ok. If The Last Jedi "isn't canon" for you, or disagrees with what you think Jedi are, you really don't understand a) the meaning of canon or b) THAT YOU ARE NOT THE DECIDING GOD OF OTHERS' CREATION
I am so fucking tired of nerds gatekeeping increasingly wider areas of fandom TO THE POINT THAT THE *CREATORS* ARE IN THE FUCKING FIRING LINE
If you are one of these people: you are not god. You are not a power of influence. This is not your story. Make your own thing.

So, here’s a thing that has happened – I just got fired from Marvel. Taken off issues 4 and 5 of SHADOW OF VADER, and taken off an as-yet-unannounced SW book.

This might be a long thread, so apologies in advance.
(I hesitate to talk about this, because honestly, it gives the Worst Possible People a win, something they’ve wanted for a while. But I also feel like I’ve long held to honesty and forthrightness, and I don’t feel like lying when people realize I’m not on these books anymore.)
To rewind a little bit, when SW: AFTERMATH came out, I assume most know but maybe you don’t, I put some ahh, elements in there (LGBT characters) that were not received well by a certain subset of fandom.

I want to talk about evil, because I don’t think a lot of people really understand how it works. I’m going to mention some things that some will misinterpret I’m sure. Maybe even be outraged by. But it’s necessary to get you to understand.
First, why is it that sex is often involved in evil acts? Because God’s greatest creation was man and woman. He created them to procreate and populate the earth. God designed the sex organs and the associated nervous system.
So, the pleasure you enjoy during sexual intercourse is a Godly design. He MEANT for you to enjoy that. Satan, being opposed to God, twists sex in every way he can to pervert it and degrade it into something that is not only unhealthy but not enjoyable in a Godly way.

Does globalization necessitate lower income tax rates?

A fascinating new @IMFnews paper looks at this exact question. THREAD:

imf.org/~/media/Files/…
1) The paper takes up a puzzle that has permeated much research on taxation in the 'globalization' era:

The increasingly free-flowing, transnational nature of capital

- vs. -

the largely national space of tax regulation and enforcement.
2) This contrast, it is generally argued, has meant countries lower their tax rates on mobile capital (corporations, rich people), engaging in 'tax competition' or 'the race to the bottom', or else that capital simply moves elsewhere.

I have some thoughts about Rey being a Skywalker. Bear with me here.
It can be simultaneously true that Rey's parents are nobodies and be Han and Leia.
Rey Nobody and Ben Solo are both people trying to escape the legacy of their parents. Rey longs for a life of significance and cherished love. Ben Solo has that but is looking for something different.

#b 'Teknik menjawab' is not a series of rituals that you carry out to secure an A in the exam. You don't get guaranteed an A just through superficial actions like highlighting keywords or drawing meniscus or inserting isi tersirat.
The problem is students and teachers treat teknik menjawab as some sort of pseudo magical ritualistic gestures that will bring a certain outcome. Draw a pentagram, slaughter a chicken, and your wish will be granted.
Some remote Pacific Islanders in 1940s came in contact with Allied and Japanese soldiers who were more technologically advanced and thought the soldiers were gods who had many "cargo" (canned food, electronics, modern stuff)

We now live in an era of “everything must validate my politics.”

So let’s talk about how The Last Jedi is a profound treatise on the follies slashing your defense budget.

Spoiler warning and don’t you @ me. You asked for this, Twitter.
The Resistance had 4 capital ships and two squadrons of fighters when their base was evacuated. The hell, Galatic Republic? Did your intelligence fail to the point that you missed The First Order building planet sized lasers and 37 mile long Star Destroyers!?
Want to slash your intelligence budget? See what it gets you.

Planet sized lasers and 37 mile long Star Destroyers, you hopeless dopes, that’s what!

What the hell did you blow the Republic discretionary budget on? Sullustian poetry slams?
