Contacting the local school is also essential; someone there might recognize her, or even uncover a missing student report.

It’s natural to be anxious, of course, but try not to let it overwhelm you. The fact that she didn’t appear to be in immediate peril (no screaming or no frantic banging) is a reassuring detail. She’s likely alright; perhaps a lost phone, a disagreement with her parents, a relatively minor upset. Still, the situation is undeniably unsettling.

Reasons? Despite their flaws, the prequels remain connected to Lucas’s original vision, making them a worthwhile watch for understanding the Republic’s fall and Anakin’s transformation.

 

The original and prequel trilogies are worthwhile viewing. The sequel trilogy, however, presents a different case. While George Lucas provided story treatments during the 2012 sale, these were ultimately discarded. The sequels also marked the end of the Expanded Universe, removed from canon to allow creative freedom for filmmakers. Given that the stories deviate significantly from Lucas’s original vision, is there really a compelling reason to watch them?

Mastodon and Lemmy both offer valuable features; they serve different purposes. Think of Mastodon as a blogging platform and Lemmy as a forum.

Bluesky isn't a Fediverse player. It's a Jack Dorsey project, currently 'incubating' until it's ready to be sold to an oligarch.

In school we teach physical hygiene. So why not emotional hygiene? Education should include basics of how the mind works, such as the dynamics of our emotions; a healthy regulation of emotional impulse and the cultivation of attention, empathy, and caring; learning to handle conflicts nonviolently; and a sense of oneness with humanity.

Self-criticism fueled my anxiety and depression. Compassion and acceptance have significantly improved my well-being.

Upgrade your friends. But don’t abandon the soundtrack of your life. It's a vital piece of the narrative. 🎧

The problem isn’t just recycling; it’s consumption. Also, aluminum still holds some value. What else is worth recycling?
