Methodology would be nice to know, but I think the Kinsey scale is abstract for a reason. It’s a tool to allow a person to broaden their own understanding of themselves.

It’s hard to actually tell. There’s a 69 year old Thomas Crooks in Pittsburgh who regularly donated to ACT BLUE.

ACT BLUE also does not accept donations from those under 18 due to legal liability issues.

On the other hand, the donation in question, on Jan 20 2021, had Thomas M Crooks’ address. Or at least his zip code.

The scale is likely the Kinsey scale. A 0-6 scale of sexuality. Zero is completely straight and six is completely gay.

Most people find themselves somewhere in the middle, even if they don’t admit it.

I’m somewhere in the range of 1–1.5

I’m firmly attracted to the opposite gender, but might make an exception if the person had a personality that was super compatible with my own. But it’s not something I’m going to seek out.

The dark side of the force. You rip the life out of yourself and others for power.

My head cannon is that using the light side of the force is asking. And the dark side is demanding.

That’s why anger and hate lead to the dark side. Because you stop asking and start demanding. You rip the power from the wold around you, from those connected to you, and eventually from your own body.

What could be more self destructive than literally ripping the life out of your own body to fuel your power?

It’s a legally gray area at best. Which is why ACT BLUE, the organization donated to, does not accept donations from people under 18.

Both Trump and the Shooter surviving would have been best. If the kid was able to say exactly why he did it, then all the conspiracy would die. An Trump would have some uncomfortable questions about his involvement with Epstein. That second part might still happen. But likely won’t.

It doesn’t matter. He was a Sith and a force user, and after the Jedi were purged, he didn’t have to hide it anymore. He would, at least from the general public, but he was served by Vader, who was openly a Sith. Well, not openly Sith, Vader likely never used the word Sith, but he would use the force to choke a bitch.

But prequels are often hamfisted in their treatment of character growth over a time skip. As in, they can’t have any growth or change at all from the end of the prequel to the start of the first movie, even if there’s 20+ years in between the two.

That’s the problem with prequels. They have to set things up, but cannot have any change or character growth, because then they’d fail at being a prequel.

So you have pointless, this is how the thing happened scenes, when no one asked for them.

Okay. rarely you’ll get a prequel that’s good, but those are story driven and often have no effect either way on the later stories except to add a layer of depth.

The Star Wars Prequels, every single one of them, were not that. There was no coherent story in any of them. Just a bunch of “look at the thing” scenes.

You could look at it that way, or…

Revelation 13:3

One of the heads of the beast seemed to have had a fatal wound, but the fatal wound had been healed. The whole world was filled with wonder and followed the beast.
