there's this weird uwufication of the clones and jedi's relationship common in pro jedi circles which is so odd when you remember that the jedi were canonically actively complicit in the clones' enslavement.

i’ll be real, kitten, daddy needs multiple wealthy and powerful folks to die in a painful, drawn-out, and generationally humiliating manner

obviously there’s nothing morally wrong with the projectionist lens through which a large portion of fandom operates but it does get kind of tiring to constantly feel like. hey guys what if we stopped talking about ourselves and instead talked about the character

and of course a degree of projectionism can be a very useful lens in certain circumstances, such as having unique insight into a character who shares certain aspects of your own experiences. but at the end of the day you still gotta recognize that there are going to be aspects of them that diverge from yourself

if you're having trouble sleeping the best you can do is put a bright object close to your face and look at it for at least 30 minutes. if that doesn't work you can close your eyes but make sure to think really hard about a bunch of bullshit

i just know that had the empire and Palpatine not happened Padmé and Anakin would’ve had a large family 🥺 they were so excited to become parents!! And watching the deleted aotc scene where they’re in her room? They would’ve adopted a whole bunch of kids too

also hc but Padmé would become a professor at a university just like her dad,, the same university even

free my girl she did all that and that’s what makes her such a compellingly complex character. that’s her essence

the ROTS deleted scene where anakin speaks binary just slammed into my skull full-force like a freight train. george lucas woke up on that day, said mister anakin skywalker can use his human mouth and his human vocal chords to beep like a fucking robot out loud with his actual voice, and people around him listen to this and know this to be a thing without screaming and flicking holy water on him like he has been possessed by the mechanical devil, and that just exists. not just that he could understand binary, but that he could speak it. with perfectly accented mechanized beeps. with his mouth. with his face. his physical, human face, as in they’re words that left his mouth, but instead of words, they’re robotic beeping noises like R2 fucking D2, except R2 fucking D2 isn’t making them, anakin is making the beeps with his human face

im going to fix my entire life

When?

Like Um. later
