But they didn't come around until a good deal of time after the Emperor's death.
And? Sidious was perhaps the most powerful Sith to have ever lived. It isn't unreasonable that he could see the future.

Even if that was the ultimate purpose of the Death Star, it's not like ol' Palpatine had any objections to letting maniacs like Tarkin run around blowing up populated worlds.

*Is now wondering which would win in a fight, blobfish or transparent-headfish.*

Fight?  It would probably be love at first sight.  :D
Now somebody has to draw the children.
Well now we know where the Forgotten Beasts keep coming from.

I wonder how a kickstarter for this would do.
And people wonder why the Government doesn't listen to its' citizens... ::)

You know how there was that link here to the GOP's copyright thing that was trying to fix things , surprised people, and might've gotten people to vote for them more? You'd think someone good at writing like that would be good to hold onto, but nope.

Oh my god, watching them dig themselves deeper is just so glorious. I love it, in the most hopeful sadistic way possible. The Democrats should pick that guy up, just to rub salt in the wound. And to write copyright reform platforms, since he's clearly pretty good at it.

The Tau aren't anywhere good enough at close combat to be the YV.
IIRC the suggestion was that they were a splinter faction from a few thousand years down the line in the 40K galaxy. Given the rate that the Tau have been advancing at, it's not entirely unreasonable. Though obviously only suggested for the fun of it.

Huh. I'm pretty sure if they stopped a few wars or something they could afford that, but I'm not either American or sure.

But if they stopped the wars, they'd run out of news and need to wait for hurricane season again to have lots of numbers and drama.

Despite the fact that Sandy apparently somehow helped the economy.

Fucking economy, being half-imaginary and not following any logic.

Economics is chaos theory incarnate.
Logged
Quote from: Chesterton
For, in order that men should resist injustice, something more is necessary than that they should think injustice unpleasant. They must think injustice absurd; above all, they must think it startling. They must retain the violence of a virgin astonishment. When the pessimist looks at any infamy, it is to him, after all, only a repetition of the infamy of existence. But the optimist sees injustice as something discordant and unexpected, and it stings him into action.

It's because all that storm water is trickling down through broken roofs, giving people incentive to pay to have them repaired.

Economic improvement generally seems to happen when money's moving. Disasters are a "good" way to force people to pull resources from storage and start using them, giving a general boost to economic health in the area, for a while. Something something broken window something. S'problems related to long term stuff and sustainability (disaster every tuesday = bad, but one every once in a while, when things are starting to stagnate a bit...), but the concept's there.
