Interesting
When the Andor title and sizzle reel were released, we also saw a brand new symbol from the GFFA. It makes up the O in the Andor title.
Here are some Rebel Alliance-affiliated symbols for comparison.
From left to right: a rebel symbol seen on the helmets of some pilots in Rogue One; the traditional symbol for the Alliance to Restore the Republic aka the Rebel Alliance as first seen in A New Hope; and the symbol for the Alliance, particularly Phoenix Cell, as first seen in Star Wars: Rebels. These symbols have been generally referred to as a variation on a starbird.
The following are some other symbols seen in the GFFA for comparison.
From left to right: the symbol for the Confederacy of Independent Systems, aka the Separatists; the symbol for the Jedi Order; the symbol for the Galactic Republic; and the symbol for the Empire.
The Andor symbol is most similar to rebel symbols from the Rebellion era than any symbols from the Prequels era, including the Separatists with whom Cassian was once affiliated.
So, it’s likely that the symbol we see in Andor is that of an early rebel group, like Pheonix Cell.
Potentially, this could be the symbol for the Atrivis Resistance Group, or a predecessor. The ARG does not yet have a symbol in canon, nor did it have one in Legends based on available information.
Never noticed this while watching clone wars.
HAPPY STAR TREK DAY!!!!
Thank you to everybody having anything to do with the original Star Trek series.
Thanks to all of you on Tumbler for keeping its spirit alive and kicking.
And of course, thank you to DeForest Kelley and his character Dr. Leonard “Bones” McCoy, who have given me so much pleasure all these years. You’ll always be in my heart.
Valid
so you’re telling me that I watched Andor (2022) and I heard quotes like “one way out” , “Tell him I love him more than anything he could ever do wrong.” , “The pace of repression outstrips out ability to understand it.” , “The Empire is a disease that thrives in darkness, it is never more alive than when we sleep.” , “You think they care what we say? Nobody's listening. Nobody.” , “Everyone has their own rebellion.” , and “I burn my life to make a sunrise I know I'll never see.” and now I’m just supposed to watch other Star Wars as if the course of my life wasn’t fundamentally changed-
This show is freaking amazing!
Some of my fav quotes from ANDOR 1.10 “One Way Out”
“They just killed a hundred men to keep them quiet. What would you call that?” // “I’d call that power.” // “Power? Power doesn’t panic.”
“I’d rather die trying to take them down than die giving them what they want.”
“I’d feel far more comfortable paying you for your trouble.” // “A drop of discomfort may be the price of doing business.”
“I’m dead. I’m dead. I’m pretending to be dead.” // “Don’t die until you put up a fight.”
Kino saying “If we can fight half as hard as we’ve been working, we will be home in no time.” followed by “I can’t swim” stop i-
“ONE WAY OUT! ONE WAY OUT! ONE WAY OUT!”
“Whatever happens now, we made it.”
Luthen’s speech about sacrifice. Literally. The. Entire. Speech.

Now I have to have this
I got this book recently and I highly recommend it.
Most of the scenes in it were filmed but then cut for time. I thought I’d share some of the highlights from certain episodes. Many are very revealing and/or just delightful. Apologies for the poor photography.
I, Mudd. When they are being held by the androids and discussing their options. Chekov contributes this fact:
By Any Other Name. When Scotty is getting Tomar drunk. Ever wonder what set up the “It’s green” liquor joke?
Elaan of Troyius. A lovely exchange between Spock and Uhura in a party scene that SHOULD NOT HAVE BEEN CUT!
The Immunity Syndrome. When the ship is stuck in the black void of the amoeba. A beautiful scene between Bones and Christine that again, never should have been anywhere near the cutting room floor.
To be continued in my next post……
I never met her, but did meet many who worked with her.  She was a pioneer.
