A few days ago well after midnight I noticed unusual lighting conditions outside. Turns out some distance down the block someone had a medical emergency of some kind; in response an ambulance, a fire truck and at least three police SUVs showed up. The cameraphone photo made the resulting illumination look more festive than was intended, but interesting nonetheless.

A little while back, one of President Bidens first actions was to overturn a Trump ban on turning the American electrical grid over to the control of the Chinese Communist Party. Clearly only right-wing nutjobs would be opposed to China digging deeply into vital American infrastructure. Chinese construction quality, customer service and ethics are world renowned and should not be questioned. Here’s an example of what we can look forward to from our future ChiGreenCom power systems:
Feh.
Communist crap is to be avoided at all costs. Communist *control* is to be actively resisted. The ChiComs have nothing to offer. Their lackeys – paid and otherwise – have nothing to offer. You want quality? Go with good old American craftsmanship.

So, what would be Hell for Emperor Palpatine? What would be an appropriate eternal torment for the evil galactic dictator who blew up planets on a whim?
Holdo.
Palpatine in Hell
In the final film, everyone straight up said that the “Holdo Maneuver” was so unlikely to succeed, it wasn’t even worth attempting. Why would Holdo try something that was basically impossible? Because she wasn’t. Holdo was trying to run away and leave everyone to die, and was so spectacularly incompetent at it, she inadvertently pulled off the most spectacular military maneuver in the history of the universe. If you need evidence that God hates us all, then look no further.
To properly understand what hell is like, imagine being forced to look at Holdo sneering at you like this… forever.
