  • The fact is that non-voters either have more important things to do than vote or don’t feel they’d make an impact if they did vote.

    When countries, states, and localities encourage education, promote mental and physical well-being, provide ample opportunities and fallbacks for financial security, and make it convenient to vote, then people more likely to at least vote, and at most vote progressively.

    Scarcity promotes apathy, which promotes conservatism.







  • Personally I would love a movie or mini-series - which leans heavily on the more graphic, grounded aspects of the EU - beginning with the Malachor V incident, showcasing the backstory and rise of both Darth Sion and Darth Nihilus - ultimately being found by Darth Traya and forming the Sith Triumvirate. I’d love an open-ending that shows Sion taking the Republic Vessel and arriving at Peragus, and a post-credits scene of Nihilus sending Visas Marr to hunt Meetra Surik.

    I’d also love to see a series with Gungi set 100yrs or so after the OT in which he’d be restoring or expanding a new Galactic Jedi Order as a threat from the Void begins to destabilize the galaxy. Ideally he’d have the wisdom of Yoda (if not more) but without Yoda’s arrogance, given his coming-of-age during the CW and the GCW

    Facebook users typically skew older, so people that are more likely to have established careers, larger spaces and yards to work on. I feel like a lot of Redditors and Lemmings are young and live with parents or in apartments, and are thus less likely to have a yard to care for.

    That being said, anyone with a deck or porch can pot a plant or two to try and help local pollinators.
