The First Person To Know About Cody And Obi-Wan Is Hondo Because He Can't Find Obi-Wan's Space Tinder

*flirting* girl, you're so off-topic I can calculate your instantaneous rate of change

If I go to office hours and the professor isn't there, I take that as a sign from the universe to never talk to them again

Sorry not sorry to make this about star wars, but this is exactly where I think star wars fails with Padme! The way she never shows up, is barely mentioned after her death, despite how much she affected the galaxy, both positively and negatively! They treat her like she only haunts Vader and maybe obi-wan, and that's not true. She haunts the narrative, and that's a whole different thing. We should clearly see the ghost of her legacy in every damn movie, but instead I just get glimpses so vague I wonder if I'm imagining it...

I love how Suguru is like the queen of haunting the narrative. His relationship to Satoru affects and directs him constantly. Jujutsu high's failure of him affects every single character from Yaga and Shoko to second years. Not to mention his literal dead body being taken over to shape the narrative.

It's amazing how he's dead from beginning to the end and is still present every moment of the story.

I know I'm not the only one to notice this, but osha's tattoo is incredibly similar to the BTS logo ...Osha is a space ARMY? Sparmy? Probably Jungkook biased imo

Anakin is Orpheus by Vincent Lima and padme is Orpheus by Sara Bareilles yeah I get you

Codywan is a gay ship for gay people.

Obikin is a gay ship for straight people. (Derogatory)

Kanera is a straight ship for gay people.

Anidala is a straight ship for straight people.

No i won‘t elaborate

Me: The Acolyte is the culmination of decades of thorough misunderstanding of the story Lucas was telling in his original six-part saga. And its depressing that at this point, the genie is out of the bottle and can't be put back in, with how pervasive the misreading of the prequels and the Jedi is.

Them: Sir, this is a Taco Bell.

There is this common narrative among Star Wars fans that Anakin is the Jedi who cares most for his clone soldiers, but I think, this misses an important part of his character. Anakin may have a close relationship with (some of) his clones, but that doesn't mean he’s free from the authoritarian mindset that defines him.

Anakin’s belief in authoritarian leadership is one of his defining traits and a source of tension in his relationship with Padmé. In Episode II, Anakin’s conversation with her about order and strong leadership ("someone wise should make them agree") gives us a glimpse into his worldview, where he sees control as a necessary tool for peace and stability. It's not subtle.

Anakin thrives as a general in a military hierarchy where he has the power to command and enforce order. His leadership style reflects his belief in decisive action and control. He expects obedience, and when his authority is challenged, he doesn't respond well. He also doesn't respond well when he feels regulated by others, like the Jedi Council.

Fives is a prime example of how Anakin’s relationship with his clones can collapse in an instance when someone seriously questions his authority. And by questioning and allegedly trying to assassinate the chancellor, Fives challenges Anakin's authority by proxy as he deeply respects Palpatine's.

When Fives uncovers the truth about the inhibitor chips and questions the entire system, Anakin is unable to process the challenge in a way that reflects true understanding or empathy for Fives's situation. This reinforces the idea that while Anakin may be fond of his clones personally, his leadership is ultimately grounded in control, not a deeper sense of equality or solidarity with them.

The argument that Anakin’s background as a slave makes him more understanding of the clones' situation may be often invoked to justify the assumption of them being close. However, this doesn’t stop him from reproducing the same power dynamics that disempowered him. Anakin’s struggle is that he’s trying to distance himself from the slave master archetype by being a "good leader", but in doing so, he still maintains the hierarchical structure that strips the clones of real agency.

star wars is so fuckign stupid. i genuinely disagree with this storytelling choice because i think a key part of vader's character + psychological purgatory is he never gets that closure of going back and enacting harm against his enslavers, the only real retribution he does is killing palpatine. but i can't say "killing watto negatively impacts vaders arc" without sounding insane . can i
