COMIC: Singing

Only a Sith deals in absolute bangers.

Alarmingly Bad comic where Darth Vader and Emporer Palpatine talk about karaoke

George Lucas got the idea for Princess Leia's iconic "space buns" from Mexican revolutionary women. Specifically Clara de la Rocha, a total badass.

Clara's descendant recounted:

"She crossed a river on horseback…and was able to take out a power station in order to allow the rebel forces to attack during night without being seen."

Just like Leia, eh?

Photos of Clara and Leia side by side, each with their side buns. Clara is standing outside in front of an ornate building with a stoic expression. She is wearing a bandolier, a bullet belt with a gun in a holster, and is holding a sword in one hand and a rifle in the other. Leia is in a photography studio looking straight at the camera with a stoic expression with her hands behind her neck and her elbows pointed downward.

You never know when you’re going to stumble into a Sarlacc pit… I mean, stumble upon a mushroom you’ve never found before.

Here’s Turbinellus kauffmanii (likely a species complex). No common name. But really, Sarlacc pit should be considered, right?

#FungiFriday #mushrooms #fungi #Nature #pilze #StarWars

Top down view of a palm-sized mushroom cap that is tan, white and brown with a funnel structure that means there is a dark hole going downward in the center of the cap. Bordering the hole are jagged, toothy growths that give the mushroom cap a maw-like appearance. Similar to the Sarlacc pit in Star Wars: Return of the Jedi. You know, the thing that belches after swallowing Boba Fett.

Two funnel shaped mushrooms coming up from the forest floor. They are about four inches high, several inches wide, and are four inches apart from each other. The “stem” or underside of the mushroom is a wrinkled cream color texture. The inner part of the mushroom can be seen at the top, or opening is spotted with giraffe colors - tan and brown.

Pues era hora de que hiciera #presentación aquí y más si cabe con la iniciativa #vamonosjuntas

Soy Paladina, una mujer en la treintena que es capaz de compaginar dos trabajos como profesora de formación profesional y project manager para una consultoría I+D+i.

Mis tiempos libres los dedico a #videojuegos, escribiendo sobre ellos para OrgulloGamers. Cuando puedo leo (#literatura) tanto novela juvenil como #scifi. Por otra parte, llevo mi propia página web #WebSencilla que hice desde 0 con mis manitas (sin framework ni ná).

Por último, destacaría que me gusta mucho #Starwars y #Frozen.

The image features Princess Leia from StarWors with a serious expression, holding a blaster weapon. She has her hair styled in two buns and is wearing a white outfit with a high collar. The background is black, which contrasts with the white text and the woman's attire. The text reads "A woman's place is in the resistance" in bold, white capital letters.

Happy Star Wars Day!

You might not know this, but I'm a wookiepedia... Star Wars Galaxies was my first MMORPG and my favorite game as a kid/teen. I played it for a few years until Sony shut it down. Ever since then, I've continued my SW obsession and now I hold too much power to be stopped.

I can't relive the days of SWG, unfortunately, but I can share with you some Star Wars fanart I have made in the past.

KNIGHTS OF THE OLD REPUBLIC is the most important expansion of the #StarWars universe chez Liza

in 2003, THING1 was 6 years old and THING2 was 3. i was 2 years into homeschooling after 9/11 up-ended T1s entry to public school. so i used everything to get them to read.

so when they asked their dad to teach them how to play it, he did so with one caveat: they had to read back to him the prompts. boy, did that start the ball rolling. more in the alt…

#maythe4th #maythe4thbewithyou

COVER OF KOTOR

the first stage of this process was for the guys to watch the paternal unit play the game. they’d do all their homeschooling work and put away the day’s mess in anticipation for after dinner gaming time. they’d spell out words and read along and learn the game’s logic watching their dad play.

that got old real fast. they wanted to play the game themselves.

we never said they couldn’t play it. we said, they could if they learned to read the prompts. so they teamed up and with their 6 and 3 year old ingenuity, they figured out how to finagle the game’s ACCESSIBILITY settings to have the game read back at them.

they waited for dad no more.

the fact that you can redo steps in the game was what really made this whole process a powerful learning experience. once they figured out the text and the clues, they’d call out for me, “MOM! COME WATCH!”; and i’d sit there and watch them not only play, but read to me the prompts and explain what they meant; OR that became the moment when they’d ask me what something meant.

so this game not only ended up being the catalyst for developing my sons reading abilities. it became their introduction to what we can learn about ETHICS, POLITICS, MORALITY through the story-telling and world-building of epics, sagas and the hero’s journey.

it’s been 22 years and we still talk about this game and how it impacted their childhood development.

i don’t game, yet KOTOR is the best game i never played.

I want to give #Mastodon a proper go this time, but it's hard to connect with people when no-one follows you, and hashtags only get you so far. 😞

“I believe we are in crisis. The distance between what is said and what is known to be true has become an abyss. Of all the things at risk, the loss of an objective reality is perhaps the most dangerous. The death of truth is the ultimate victory of evil. When truth leaves us, when we let it slip away, when it is ripped from our hands, we become vulnerable to the appetite of whatever monster screams the loudest.” #MonMothma
