Baby Yoda may look like a Gremlin, but lets face it he IS really a part of the Dark Crystal. My Yoda theory is that I don’t think the link is “just luck” I think the Dark Crystal is really the origin story of the real Yoda even if baby Yoda looks like a Gremlin. Frank Oz was the voice of Yoda in the first films. “Star Wars creator George Lucas was an executive producer on the movie Labyrinth (1986), directed by Muppets creator Jim Henson. Jim Henson and Frank Oz also co-directed The Dark Crystal (1982), which was produced by Star Wars producer Gary Kurtz.” ( https://www.starwars.com/n…/star-wars-thet-muppet-connection ) It is made by the SAME people! ALL the same people! I think that the Dark Crystal was the story of Yoda, but they were thinking he lost “Mystery” when they made his story too clear so they changed the names at the last second. The powers of the “Dark” crystal sure do match the “Dark” side of the force. They never show Yoda on the planet of the Dark Crystal, but if he changed his name after healing the crystal and went off world, it could explain much of Yoda’s power.

Union stage in DC was amazing today! Met up with friends, and saw a great show.
*
Me with new red hair trying to watch Clan of Xymox and Bellwether Syndicate at the Union in DC. The show was soooo great!
*
I loved going to the show even if traffic and parking are a bit of a nightmare in DC in winter. I have collected music by both of the main bands for years, and so it was great to hear some of their new downloads live. Xymox’s base guitarist from Slovenia refused to play due to protest of the government in the USA. It is hard to see a show in Washington DC that is not on some level a protest show these days.

Still these bands still have the magic of the first shows I saw them play.
Too true! Amazing in a sad way how we in the USA missed the boat on this issue. Saying you are against this is a good way of finding out how fast I can delete your comments, put you on user block, and never talk to your woman-abusing face again. This happened to me earlier today on Facebook.

As a teacher I would like to point out this is VERY wrong! No teaching job is an “unskilled” job because you do have to keep your temper at all times. Kids always try the “strange” stuff on substitute teachers. On a odd note I have been to the school in Kyle, TX she worked at before she punched a student. It is next to Austin, TX where I first worked as a teacher.
Movie script writer, book writer, and guitarist Edward Santiago granted me an interview on my last trip to Austin, TX for Halloween of 2019. I am the girl on his right in the photo below. We used to work together at Blizzard Entertainment in Austin doing game master help desk work for World of Warcraft. (I did this in the summer as temp work when I was not teaching.) He says it was hard work earning a number of degrees in writing for film, but worth it to teach students about writing in Austin, TX. He says he enjoys writing dramatic work, but fiction has captured his heart for entertainment writing. He says he has a large collection of fiction books, fiction book art prints, video game posters, and video games which my photos of his apartment verify. He says practices guitar regularly, but script writing is his main creative outlet.
No visit to New Orleans at Halloween is complete without a quick graveyard tour. The graves are amazing because the swamp makes it hard to put coffins underground, and so bodies are placed in above ground tombs covered in famous statues. This year I went to Lafayette No. 1 by Commanders Palace restaurant for my end of visit tour. For more art prints for sale see my page at the following: https://www.deviantart.com/fh7publishing
