  • While I agree with you about the state political apparatus, I think California is much more than just that. Even within that apparatus, there are solid and progressive changes that are consistently made in the fields of education and consumer protection. Is it as fast and far reaching as I would like? No. But it is something. The people of California are by and large caring and hopeful, which is a trait that I really appreciate.













  • Definitely in chronological order of release as the other comment says, but make sure to find the despecialized edition fan re edit which brings the high quality changes to the resolution and sound, but leaves the movies as they were originally shown without the terrible edits from Lucas in the late 90s.

    Also, feel free to skip all of the sequels. They are nonsensical and self defeating with every successive installment. I gave the episode 7 a pass on their rehashing of the original and was excited to see a female hero taking up the mantle, but 8 and 9 just undo any positive or coherent story/message structure that could have spun from 7.

    Edit: Do not miss Rogue One or Andor. I’d watch those after the prequel trilogy and in order of release too




  • Part of it has been how it is/was taught. Math was always the subject I had to work harder on than any other. The problem is that I was never taught to really conceptualize the problems. Once I started taking physics and real world applications came into play, it all sort of clicked and got much easier.

    Edit: Also, math is really all about relationships and conceptualizing interesting problems or ideas. If it had been presented to me that way, I think I would have been more adept at it earlier.
