"Luke appears and confronts Kylo alone, giving the surviving Resistance fighters time to escape. Kylo strikes Luke with his lightsaber, but learns that he has been fighting a force projection, and Luke is still on Ahch-to. Luke defiantly tells Kylo that he will not be the last Jedi, as Rey clears a blocked tunnel behind the base so the remaining Resistance fighters can escape. Luke then peacefully dies and becomes one with the Force. The remaining Resistance fighters escape aboard the Falcon, and Leia reassures everyone that the rebellion has all that is needed to rise again." sounds pretty stupid

a lot of people seemed to think that part was cool but i was like wait, doesn't that make him a huge coward and the part where he supposedly uses the force to survive being fired upon by the whole army at once not impressive anymore? i guess that's a pretty minor complaint compared to all the other stupid plot developments and bad acting in this movie (and the rest of the series) but it kind of ruined the character for me

it sounds like the easiest way to avoid getting stuck in a really bad conversation with him and it's healthy to not need to demonstrate your intelligence imo

i dont feel healthier, in fact i feel miserable and grumpy that evertime a someone asks me about something im doing intead of engaging i pretend to be stupid because im afraid of intimidating them or something, whatever idk why im posting about my behavioral quirks

The other day I ran into someone I used to know, and learned that they now work for the NYT, and instead of slapping their face, the closest i got to criticism was to say stuff like"I'm not sure the decay of journalism is all negative since most bourgeois news is entertainment evenm when the information is real." And later I was kicking myself for not getting harsh, but I also didnt ruin someone's birthday party, which I also kick myself for, but in the end its like... arguing with bourgeois dummies doesn't fix them, and even if they admit i'm right they spend the rest of their acquaintance with me looking to catch my ideology in a mistake. Then at any point that they don't undertstand me or if i minorly contradict myself, they get to wash their hands of any suspicion of my intelligence and just assume I'm an amoral dickhead (somewhat accurate) trying to change stripes with fake radical philosophy (not accurate). So maybe the best tack is to say something like "IDEK why i even read this stuff, just trying to understand it, but its probably all propaganda anway!" and let them fill in the blanks. BC in reality there aren't so much smart and dumb people, as people who try to learn and people who dont. Thats my post.

13:30 long flight ahead of me, last time by hour 5 I was already filled with a mixture of loathing, apathy and enough self-control to not start writhing insanely and attacking staff in hopes of forcing a landing

are you doing ok, you seem pretty stressed out in a lot of your posts
