I think I could've been a Star wars nerd but I learned about the Sun Crusher or whatever it's called and how they kept inventing new superweapon macguffins culminating in the completely indestructible single-man spaceship that blows up stars. Also Luke's evil clone, Luuke, and the emperor's son Trioculus, because he had 3 eyes.

And there's a whole ass novel just about Vader's left glove because it can't be enough that he stopped Han's shot with the Force, his left glove specifically is blaster proof and we have to explore that.

Don't hold your breath, it's probably a bunch of oilfield workers in 21% APR lifted pickups throwing beer cans at the hogs for presuming to not let them drive drunk. You go to other provinces though and sometimes you'll have indigenous communities blowing up pipelines

Or even just "this person is attractive but I'm not interested in changing our relationship"

The courts have no mechanism to enforce their decisions except the executive, so there's no check on the executive misbehaving if Congress decided to not remove him from office for ignoring the courts, and since Congress is complicit nothing will be done unless some radicalized shooter aims slightly more to the left next time.

There's been one or two episodes where Liam was straight up watching a baseball game during the recording.

Honestly even early BG3 had well done romance, just Gale in particular was a horndog

Before the patches, Gale's romance meter would fill up really really fast and off of non-flirty, friendly interactions. "Sure Gale, I'd like to hear more about magic some time but I'm busy now" would basically be enough for him to become aggressively interested in you, fuelling a lot of Nice Guy type jokes about him

I think in terms of damage 11 is up there since it won't work on systems without TPMs, but 10 is also approaching EOS, so an ocean of machines are about to become ewaste or malware vectors.

F35s are basically a grift for the military-industrial complex. Developing them blew through every budget because putting the strategic needs of different operators and different environments on one airframe is dumb, and they need loads of parts constantly to keep the mill churning. As a desirable side effect, if the US decides to not let you use F35s any more, they can stop shipping parts and your fleet will quickly become nonfunctional.
