I was just listening to Gilroy talk about Andor and revolution in the latest Scripnotes and couldn't help but think of Mahmoud Khalil even if Cassian Andor is quite different.
Cassian was arrested and disappeared when he was roughly still indifferent about the empire (I think?) and it was only in imprisonment that he actually became more radical, from what I recall.
What a miracle Andor season 1 was. Didn't know how important the timing was for Tony Gilroy with Covid happening. Thank god they explained Gilroy's “crise” lol.

I don't know if this is what they were trying to depict in #Andor, but this scene where the cubicles have two computer consoles, one that you operate with each hand, and they evidently don't talk to each other because that why the human is there feels like peak bureaucracy
There will be times when the struggle seems impossible. I know this already. Alone, unsure, dwarfed by the scale of the enemy.
Remember this, #freedom is a pure idea. It occurs spontaneously and without instruction. Random acts of insurrection are occurring constantly throughout the galaxy. There are whole armies, battalions that have no idea that they've already enlisted in the cause.
Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
And remember this: the Imperial need for control is so desperate because it is so unnatural. #Tyranny requires constant effort. It breaks, it leaks. Authority is brittle.
Oppression is the mask of fear. Remember that. And know this, the day will come when all these skirmishes and battles, these moments of defiance will have flooded the banks of the Empires's authority and then there will be one too many. One single thing will break the siege.
Remember this: Try.

April 1st
Oh shit… it’s April Fools Day. Never have I ever had less interest in playing along with this bullshit. The fascist states of america is already filled to bursting with fools and idiots and pure, unadulterated evil. Why anyone would think fake stories on the internet is entertaining during times like these… I just don’t get it.
Change of subject. The Red Sox are off today. We will be spared the slaughter and the constant strike outs. In five games thus far this season the team has struck out 123644258686134 times with about 86358629357 being Devers alone. Unfortunately, the Bruins are not off tonight. They will be annihilated by the Capitals. Times are tough in Boston sports-land these days. Why not? Times are tough everywhere.
Change of subject again. When was the original Star Trek given the Star Wars Special Edition treatment? After finally getting through Star Trek the Animated Series the other day, I decided to watch the original show all the way through. I’m through the two pilots and up to episode five now. I just watched Sulu take on the bridge with a sword while the Irish guy sings badly over the ship’s PA. I’m a little put off by most, if not all, of the exterior shots of the Enterprise being replaced by CGI. When did that happen? It doesn’t affect the episodes at all, but I still kinda don’t like it. I want my 1960’s models back. I want the pure form of the show back, even if it is less impressive and cheesy looking.
Change of subject again, again. Sticking with television, what is the deal with the month of April? We have the start of new seasons of The Handmaid’s Tale, Andor, The Last of Us, and Doctor Who. We’ll also see the last two episodes of Yellowjackets this month. This feels like collusion. This feels like the television industry conspiring to keep me from sleeping for the foreseeable future.
Again with the change of subjects again, again. I did not participate in the RPM Challenge’s Record Every Month thing. I wanted to. I was going to. I just didn’t. I’m thinking of maybe compensating for my failure by trying to do an April album in a month instead. Write and record 35 minutes worth of new music before the month ends. Will I be able to muster up the motivation? Probably not, but let’s give it a shot, eh?
Okay. Time to go and get ready for work. Welcome to April. Stay away from those damn April Fools jokes. It’s going to be a long and painful day on the ol’ internets. Good luck, everyone.

Disney and Lucasfilm made a baffling choice with #Andor Season 2 that suggests a lack of confidence in the #StarWars show's potential to keep fans engaged over a long broadcast period. https://www.cbr.com/star-wars-andor-release-strategy-makes-no-sense/
Re-watching #Andor (2022)
Nemik: “It’s just so confusing, isn’t it? So much is going wrong, so much to say, and all of it happening so quickly. The pace of repression outstrips our ability to understand it. That is the real trick of the Imperial thought machine. It’s easier to hide behind 40 atrocities than a single incident.”
Diego Luna on rewatching Rogue One after Andor season 2: "It's going to change the experience"

The end of Andor season 2 will make Rogue One feel very different indeed.

Si crees haberlo visto todo en Star Wars, Andor te va a sorprender. El discurso de Luthen Rael es una clase magistral de sacrificio, rebelión y moralidad. ¡Imperdible! #Andor #StarWars https://www.cinemascomics.com/por-que-los-fans-de-star-wars-deben-ver-andor-2/
I am so excited for the soon to be dropped Season 2 of Andor!
Andor is the best written Star Wars story ever. Chef's kiss level!
