i think the reason Commander Cody’s character is often undersold is because his story isn’t ever told in any one story. his screentime in tcw is low, but meaningful, his appearances in comics are incredible, but overlooked, he isn’t touched on much in RotS, but his personality is still super obvious there, and he’s only in one episode of Bad Batch, but he quite literally changed the entire course of the season with his short amount of time. all of it is rich and shows how much he cares about the people around him and that’s what makes him such a great character. he doesn’t need hours of time to make a difference in the other characters around him, he does that naturally no matter what

I have some thoughts about One last stop by Casey Mcquiston and reviews I've seen by Argentinian book influencers mainly on tiktok and instagram.

I don't know if they all came to an agreement to say shit about the book or the "ringleader" told them all what to say. Literally every person from my country who's read the book has talked absolute SHIT about it. One of them even claimed this is the WORST book recommended by tiktok, and because she has a lot of influence over the community, a lot of people started saying they will not be reading the book. About this, I have some shit to say.

1. If you liked Red, white and royal blue (by the same author) and you didn't like One last stop, you may be a bigot. Don't get me wrong, I love Alex and Henry, but August and Jane's story is truly beautiful and well constructed as well. Is it that you don't like that they fall in love quickly or is it that you can't sympathize with queer women?

2. American politics are impossible to understand if you're not American. That being said, Red, white and royal blue has a lot of talk about politics, and that's fine because it's essential, so we gotta put up with it. Now, what about queer history in One last stop? I've seen people say One last stop has a lot of filler that adds nothing. I think all the little stories are important to the development of the story. The pancake place, Auggies story, everything.

3. One last stop features a main character who is a 23 year old bisexual woman struggling to make ends meet. Been there, done that. That's all I gotta say here, this character is hella relatable if you struggle with work and money and love and housing.

4. August is such a sweetheart. She's so caring, and stubborn, and funny, and clumsy. She's a proud woman trying to make something of her life.

5. Regarding influencers, I gotta say they have more power than we realize. I know I have to be the person choosing what interests me and what I want to read. Some people, unfortunately, don't know better, so they'll consume what's fed to them. There's this girl who is a writer and of course she wants ppl to read her book, but this very same person said One last stop is the worst book that "came out of" tiktok, meaning it became popular in the app. So her fans or followers now will not read the book because she said it's bad. A lot of people, not only her, recommend books with horrible plots or characters, with content that may be harmful for some people. And they glorify the books!! What's to glorify about an asshole of a male character who treats women like shit? because inside he cares about her!! Please. Have some common sense.

6. I know. I know I'm making it too big of a deal. But the thing is, when I read One last stop I recommended it to everyone because I loved the characters, loved the story and the way it made me reflect upon our history. I remind you I live in Argentina, but unfortunately hate crimes do exist here. I could go out tomorrow holding a girl's hand and be beaten to death. My brother can be assaulted in the streets for being gay. No queer person is safe and it's really important for us to think about this. Shit like this happened in the 70s and they still happen today in 2022. This is our history. We should never forget the names of people who died trying to live their lives freely and unafraid.

Thank you for coming to my TED talk.

memes for The Bad Batch 2x02, "Ruins of War"

Bad Batch Season 2 Trailer!!!! It looks so good! And there’s Commander Cody??¿ And Rex will reappear too!!! HE in this animation quality is just something else 🫶🏼

Also I really love, that someone decided to really dive into what happened after Order 66 and how everyone’s dealing with it, like with Andor and the Kenobi Series. Good idea. Very good.

I don't know which is worse, echo having an unknown fate with rex or the bad batch losing a solid 40 percent of their impulse control.

The thing I really love about Cody’s story in “The Solitary Clone” is that he reflected on what happened and his reality on his own, that his realizations were his own, nobody beat it into his head, nobody had to shake him away, Cody did that on all his own.  Cody’s ability to think for himself, to navigate his way through his own mind, was what brought him through the conditioning in his head.  That doesn’t have to negate that the Jedi’s effect on the clones was foundational and tremendous, that they helped give the clones the chance to grow into these people.  But it also is still Cody’s own damn work on his own damn mind that brought him to where he was. The thing I really don’t love about Cody’s story in “The Solitary Clone” is that he could have been replaced with just about any other character and it would have had nearly as much impact, because this was a story about Crosshair, not about Cody.  We never even see Cody’s realization or the moment he leaves, Cody was set dressing for Crosshair’s story, and wound up being a cameo more than actually getting a story. I’m not opposed to every single episode of the show having a cameo–even if I think they’re relying too heavily on them to draw in viewers and thus undercutting the idea that these characters might actually get a hefty story being told about them, instead of having it done in tiny snippets here and there.  But that’s my frustration with Cody’s story, that what’s there isn’t bad, but because he’s a cameo in someone else’s story, his story is told in the background and we only see half of it.  Cody deserves better than to have his story told that way.

I was thinking about how the real beauty of Codywan is that they are only really allowed to exist in the quiet parts of the war and then I remembered the quote from Everything, Everywhere, All At Once which I think describes them perfectly.

“I wanted to say… in another life I would have really liked just doing laundry and taxes with you.”

Except replace laundry and taxes with paperwork. I think this is Cody’s perspective in particular. This idea of this being the most boring part of his day but it’s a privilege for him because he gets to do it with Obi Wan but also because it’s so completely ordinary. He doesn’t see Obi Wan as this all-powerful Jedi, he just sees him, and that is who he loves. It’s not that his abilities as a Jedi aren’t impressive, but Cody loves the person behind all of it and he would’ve loved him without any of it too. Even though he never took these moments for granted during the war, after Order 66, he still feels like he has. He’d do anything to get that back but it’s his fault that he can’t (or so he believes).
