‘Rogue One: A Star Wars Story’ International Trailer: Now With Key Plot Point Included!
Rogue One‘s International trailer confirms a key plot point that’s been been bandied about in other forms already. Specifically, it pertains to the character that Mads Mikkelsen shall be playing. If you watch it, don’t say I didn’t warn you!
Watch: Kylo Ren reacts to the ‘Rogue One’ trailer
I like Kylo Ren. I think his petulance, and his whiny nature fits in completely with his character. That said, I also really enjoy the memes he has spawned since his debut. Here is the best of both worlds!

Oh…oh, that’s what Hope begins with? Gotcha.

Monday Morning Commute: Now Is The Time For Panic
Monday Morning Commute! Another seven days or so have past since we last met. How is your existence? Persistent? Intermittent? Fleeting, flitting, between this Universe and the next? Sliding up, up, down, down, left, right, left, right through linear time-space? Another seven days or so have past since we last met. It’s weird, not really having anything to report.
My class and I had a discussion (as we are wont to do, every semester) about comfort versus happiness. Most thought that comfort is preferred to genuine happiness. Those who stay in relationships despite them being “eh”, those who stay at jobs despite them being “eh”, you know.
