The father of Empress Rey's child has long been a mystery. It has been rumored to be a nobody, but others claim him to be a very powerful Jedi.

The "insulin is free" tweet from the fake-verified Eli Lilly account tanked the company's stock, along with the stocks for two other major BioTech firms, by up to 4%

The "we're suspending arms sales to Saudi Arabia, the United States, et al" tweet from a fake-verified Lockheed Martin account tanked Lockheed's stock today

Since 8:00AM this morning there has been a tweet claiming Elon Musk was starting a program called "Elon's Tots" wherein he would pay off people's student loans

Numerous politicians and pundits have been targeted by trolls leveraging verified accounts to fuck with their public images, and many of them aren't being addressed nearly as fast as the fake-verified Elon Musk accounts

Twitter is allegedly worth 1/4 of what Elon bought it for

Tesla's stock has allegedly fallen by 50%

Friends from Twitter! So you might be wondering how to save stuff for later or how to bookmark posts. That's what the Like button is for.

For those using the app, you can access your Likes list on the middle tab on your profile page. For those using desktop, click the top-right button on the bar up top then click Likes.

Basically, likes here do nothing. There's no algorithm like Twitter's, where likes can increase engagement on a post. Reblogs (and using relevant tags) are what get a post seen in these parts. So if you want to help out a fandom friend, reblog their content.

Tumblr also has no bookmarks like Twitter does. As an alternative, just hit the Like button on a post. Then you can check your Likes list for all the posts you have saved!

It's a workaround we've used for lack of other options. The hellsite forces you to work with what you've got. 😂 So make the most of those useless likes and turn it into a bookmarks page.

Love,

Someone who thought she'd never go back here again 💀

goodnight, sweet prince

While prepping to record on Willow the Movie (1988) with @allgirlsareprincesses we were both struck by how much of Willow is loaded with Fem-focused symbolic and mythic pieces there were. It's important to understand that Joseph Campbell continued his studies and understanding since exploring the "Adventure's Journey" in Hero with a Thousand Faces in 1949.

Obviously, George Lucas advanced his understanding of stories as well, since his original Story idea in the early 70s. In the article linked below - Bob Dolman tells the Story of the Dinner at George's House with Joseph and Jean Campbell:

"His wife Jean was quiet," Dolman said. "We asked her what she thought and she said, 'You know, my favorite part is when Fin Raziel becomes herself again and she's an older woman. She looked at her hand, I'll never forget, and you didn't forget because you put it in the movie. She said, 'Sometimes you just can't believe how fast it all went by.'

"We talked about it afterwards and [Howard] caught it so beautifully when she says, 'Has it been that long?'" Dolman said. "Her life had gone by and she'd missed it. That was actually such a human feeling of wow, what happened? She felt she missed it because she'd been in all these different forms. That was a really wonderful moment."

There are many more amazing examples because the story speaks this Fem perspective so strongly.

I found out recently that my suspicions were correct, Joseph Campbell was consulted on Willow when they were finishing the Story (After we recorded! DARN). Both George's and Joe's perspectives had advanced. I can't wait for you all to hear our Episode and fall in love with Willow all over again.
