Jack was really a jester

Who held his one good eye on the queen

And there sat the king beside her

He's pointing his sword up and down with every scene

And the wizard's in the corner

Catching peanuts between his teeth

And the dogs lying in the shadow in the archway

There's one good dog sleeping filled with good ol' dog dreams

He slipped next to the wizard

Whispered something deep, to the bottom of his ear

A little joke, the one about the farmer's daughter

How she was stomping on grapes, coming up with blue feet and beer

And he slipped behind the queen

Where the fools go the rich don't mind

Lately the king's (k)nights have turned a little rusty

And his halo - I mean his crown - has gone and slipped down around his eyes

The wizard's in the corner

Pulling lizards between his knees

And the dog he been long gone

Gone to pitch for the winning team

Fifty-two, I mean fifty-four bicycles on the wall

Ready to ride, ready to ride until the last of them falls

Jack's been cooking in the kitchen

Whompin' up some biscuits for us all

For us all, For us all

Ready to ride, ready to ride, ride

I went into a local Walmart in the electronics department they were selling a "Klipsch Promedia" knockoff system.

I don't know why, but I am super angry today. Couldn't take playing chess anymore was punching my monitor too much.

Yes, the show is based off a "literally who?", side character from a spinoff of the main Star Wars movies.

But that doesn't mean you shouldn't, or won't care about him. In fact, the fact that the main character, Cassian Andor, only appears in one other movie, taking place after the show, means there's a lot of opportunity to develop and explore the character, and goddarn do they take that opportunity.

For those of who don't know, Andor is a prequel to Rogue one, which was a spinoff of the original Star Wars movies. Rogue follows a small group of loosely aligned rebels with different backgrounds and motivations, who undertake a mission to steal the plans for the Death Star, (so that it can be destroyed by the heroes of the original trilogy). They succeed in their mission, but at the cost of their lives.

Rogue One is more mature compared to the black and white good VS evil fantasy of other Star Wars films. It gives attention to the moral grey that Star Wars doesn't usually touch on. It portrays war with grim realism, going as far as having it's main protagonists killed to drive home the point. It shows the lethality of war. It shows the dark side of the good rebel alliance and the desperate, morally questionable methods, and harsh utilitarianism used by certain sects and individuals within the rebellion.

It adds nuance to the usually black and white morality of star wars films, in some cases though characters like Cassian Andor.

When he's introduced in Rogue Cassian is a rebel invested in the fight against the tyrannical, oppressive galactic empire.

Rogue Ones darker, grittier, more philosophically nuanced portrayal of the Star Wars universe, and it's dark portrayal of Cassian, sets the tone of Andor.
