The big media corporations have been pushing legislation and legal crackdowns since the 90s and it hasn’t made a dent in piracy. They’ll keep trying of course, but it still won’t work.

I would guess the savings accounts just aren’t bringing in as much in deposits and there are more small accounts and higher operational costs than they planned for.
I didn’t understand your comment at first because I thought the cartoons were both women. (I guess the one on the right had a bit of facial hair and masculine features.)
Switching it to two guys wouldn’t make a difference but I can see how male-left, female-right might look worse. But it really shouldn’t.
It’s a short cartoon. I read it as a playful, consenting couple having fun with each other. I don’t think it’s one partner luring the other in on false pretenses of an emergency and forcing them to perform oral sex. The gender arrangement shouldn’t affect that.
The force is definitely more than just the mechanics of biology. I can’t imagine a blood transfusion does anything. It shouldn’t connect you to the force any more than chopping off a Jedi’s arm and waving it around would.
And there are loads of inanimate objects strongly connected to the force: holocrons, kyber crystals, whatever materials are used to construct and paint Jedi temples, etc. Droids are too.
But it had to be something that the Klingons found very upsetting. If it was opera, they’d just keep rolling with it and having a great time
I don’t think we should assume the Kelcie Mae is particularly slow either. The ship’s speed isn’t determined by how many nacelles it has.
It’s really not free. Piracy is still a bit of a chore. It’s just less of a chore than juggling a dozen streaming services, shitty and inconsistent apps and playing the whole “what major corporation’s subscription service has the rights for this show?” game.
They ought to try sucking less.
