PSA: Star Wars Needs More Homemade Sweaters
If you’ve watched episode 3 of the second season of The Mandalorian, I’m sure you’ve noticed that there’s a bunch of Mon Calamari working on the docks on Trask. However, what you might NOT have noticed is the glorious sweater one of the workers was wearing. Behold:
Have you seen that sweater? Have you noticed how perfect it is? The incredible craftsmanship (these types of sweater are quite challenging to make according to my knitting girlfriend), the color, perfectly suiting the Mon Calamari skin tone, the thought that someone might have lovingly knitted it for him.
One of the things that has always struck me about the Star Wars movie universe is how art, reading, and written languages are mostly absent from society. I’m really happy that The Mandalorian is changing all that… one sweater at a time.

Baby Yoda Flies to The ISS With The SpaceX Crew [Video]
Sure, we might not be “a long time ago in the galaxy far, far away,” but that does not mean that characters from the Star Wars universe cannot litteraly go into space! On Sunday, during SpaceX’s historic Crew-1 commercial flight, the crew brought a special guest inside the Dragon capsule: The Child, also affectionately known online as Baby Yoda by the whole Internet.
The Baby Yoda plush had a very important role to play during the flight: he was acting as the “zero-gravity indicator,” an object that is brought on board to determine when a microgravity environment has been reached.
Now how amazing is that? :)
We sure hope that we’ll see more of the Child once the astronauts have docked to the ISS on Monday night. They’ll live and work aboard the space station for approximately 6 months, so I’m pretty sure “Baby Yoda” will make other appearances at least a few other times while they are there.
I just hope the little guy will behave, because as we all know, he really likes to touch things.

YOU Are NOT Normal, And It’s OK!
A wonderful short film by Cathrine Prowse showing that nobody is really normal, and that however weird you feel inside, you are not alone. That movie actually made me feel better about myself, and I hope it’ll do the same to you!
Made for Childline, a children’s charity in the UK that’s offering a free mental health hotline for kids under 19.

Jim Carrey Becomes The Joker [Deepfake Video]
https://youtu.be/AuyOU999qBE
Youtuber Stryder HD deepfaked Jim Carrey’s face unto Joaquin Phoenix’s Joker, and I have to say, the man would probably have been a really great Joker if given the opportunity.
In my opinion Jim Carrey can do no wrong in the world of cinema, he has done everything from drama to Dumb and Dumber, and has not failed yet. He will always be one of my favorite actors so this week I have turned him into Joaquin Phoenix’s iteration of “Joker”. I have also done some voiceover work in this one to change the voice. I hope you all enjoy the deepfake concept trailer and enjoy much more content coming soon!
