"Thrawn only joined the Empire to help the Chiss!"
Okay sure but have any of you bothered to self-examine why Thrawn chose to join the Empire instead of, say, the Republic, when that was still around? Or why he didn't chose to throw in with the Rebellion, put his tactical mind to use helping them overthrow the Empire quicker?
Could it be... perhaps... that maybe he values the Empire's military strength... more than he cares about the authoritarian tyranny with which it oppresses its own people?
Is it possible that he thinks the Empire's main problem is that it isn't effective enough, too much politicking getting in the way of sound strategy, but if he's around (and in charge) he can guide things so that those annoying little wrinkles (AKA the pockets of discontent and rebellion and fully justified anger at their rights and freedoms being trampled on) are all smoothed out and the overall Imperial machine is better, more in control of its assets, a stronger more unified bulwark against the outergalactic threat of the Grysk or the Vong or whatever.
Is it perhaps just a bit self-centered of him to only care about the Empire's ability to service his own goals and desires and be apathetic (at best) to the way it makes people suffer daily under its inherent systems? The Twi'leks and Wookies being constantly kidnapped and sold into slavery? The careless industrialization of arboreal worlds? The socialization and absorption of all private industry, forcing everyone to work through and with the Empire if they want to work at all? The systematic persecution of anyone remotely Force Sensitive? Is it not the mark of some kind of soul rot to be aware of all of that and go, "Yeah, but I don't care, they have the bigger guns, which is what I need."?
Maybe... just maybe... Thrawn has some Machiavellian tendencies and opinions and maybe this just might... make him not entirely a good person?
And maybe y'all should think about that before you come back and whine about his portrayal as a villain, as if all he has to do is explain to people that he did everything for a good reason and he gets an automatic narrative pardon for all of the shit he did while Grand Admiral that still needs to be addressed and answered for.
#yeah another thrawn rant has been brewing for a while#listen it's not that i don't want thrawn to have depths and pathos and dimensions to his character#what i'm saying is that NONE OF THAT MATTERS ONCE HE JOINED THE EMPIRE#because he sure as hell didn't work to subvert the empire at all even knowing the kinds of things they do#so no i'm sorry there is no clean 'i had good intentions' moment#where everyone just arbitrarily accepts his Sad Backstory and declares everything okay#him doing everything he did 'for his people' does not mean the people he DID hurt don't get to demand and expect justice#what annoys me is not that thrawn has complex motivations#it's that fandom seems to think the motivations cancel out the MEANS and METHODS#which is why in all their stories thrawn gets to just go home and have a happily ever after with eli vanto or whoever#that is not what is going to or what should happen in canon guys#not fandom tagging this if you see it it's your own dang fault for being out in the wilds of the untamed tumblr search#dunking on the blue bastard#star wars#star wars rebels

every shuro/toshiro hater who claims that toshiro loves falin for the same traits he hates in laios should venmo me 200 dollars immediately
#dungeon meshi#this really is the reading comprehension website i keep forgeting#listen. listen. falin went to school. lived with her family. longer than laios did. do you know why autism is diagnosed less in girls?#not clear to anime-onlys but laios ran away from home at like 13. to join an army. and then was sort of free-wheeling for a while#falin went to school where she made friends learned went to town etc etc#falin was NOT exhibiting the same behaviors as laios are you kidding me. she was conditioned to mask those behaviors#one of her main character traits is that she's self-sacrificing!! that's like her whole thing!!!#im not even gonna go into asian culture and social etiquette bc clearly tumblr's white dunmeshi fans cant handle it#'sometimes...ppl from different countries.....act different? think different??' the western hemisphere is not the center of civilization!!!

sometimes self care is drawing your own custom card holder cover
#oh ghostroach lovers u r in luck#my hairpin is the glue holding my id card together and not snapping open 😌#one more week and my internship will end...#which means more time to draw!! until my final exams hit me a wk later#waaaa why did they arrange theory finals AFTER the internship... how r we supposed to sit down and study quietly#after walking around n using the knowledge practically#maybe... i will stream to hold myself accountable... both studying drawing and studying of my finals after my internship ends...#my bedtime schedule will probably remain cooked so might as well use it to my advantage#remains a tentative plan but yeah maybe u guys can come and watch me fumble around and chat#i would love to join a discord but i would just lurk sobs#and i really want to talk with fellow roach and ghostroach enthusiasts!! but im afraid of saying the wrong thing or it can be misunderstood#so in the end i just say nothing which is bad because nobody knows what im thinking until i say it out loud#i just want to let you guys know that i appreciate all your likes comments and tags dearly and i dont know how to respond to them#twt is a direct reply so it doesnt feel weird to just reply#but tumblr feels different to me#rambling

It's again that time of the week where I have to go and report the spam and/or porn bots from the tags I follow because every time I see one of their posts on my dashboard I die inside a little bit
#wren text tag#aro/ace tag and the spam bot war here I am#also in the StS tag like bruh it's not even that active why do I see 1 spam bot in the first page already#how the fuck did you find this tag. It hasn't been trending in years.#not gonna say the fandom it's dead but like#there are 6 people actively posting here on tumblr (<- forgotten hellsite)#and 1 of them is like a general news blog abt the serie#(and one of them is me lol)#I love joining fandom 30 years after they first aired so in the end their popolarity is already gone and I'm left here with idk#3 other people that have made the same bad decision as me lol#like virtually I wouldn't mind to idk post my art also on other websites like uhhh Twitter or uhhh Instagram#(looks at the list of websites that don't use AI) OH yeah definitely not them#The StS fandom on twitter be thriving btw. I think it's because its platform is used by a lot of Asian fan... unlike tumblr#and the serie is still a lot more popular in the East#I'd give Twitter a chance but I don't like the platform. Everytime I log in I see some drama or AI art getting 40k likes and I close the ap#also fandom discourse like hhhhhh

okay, so, I've collected a bunch of DP fandom stuff that I remember off the top of my head, specifically in chronological order & colour coded here in this post (fics/comics, tumblr posts, important imo) for no reason other than I saw a post asking for Phandom history & it triggered my biggest, most long-running hyperfixation & now I'm curious if anyone else remembers stuff.
this link is going to be the permanent version I will be updating, but I'm posting what I currently have (gonna go through my old laptop later for more) just to let people know. you can also find the link on my blog, but only on desktop. It isn't colour coded there, sorry.
please share more if you got anything else cuz I'm 100% sure I'm missing a lot of stuff & am too interested now. the biggest reason a lot of stuff isn't here is that I simply can't find it. second biggest reason is i forgor. things not included here aren't "unimportant," this is just the first stuff that comes to mind.

#*and this is icarly!#the rookie#melissa o’neil#eric winter#nathan fillion#chenford#it was like 3 years ago during the lockdown and they did those chenford chats#honestly best 5 minutes of my life#the only reason i even made a zoom account lol#i always forget that melissa is from canada and likely grew up watching sailor moon as a kid#she was 6 years old when the first episode aired.....#iiiiiii... did not even exist yet#in fact i didn't know what sailor moon was till middle schoool#and when i did i fell in love with it and that's actually why i came to tumblr in the first place when i was 13#cause i didn't have any sailor moon friends and wanted some!!!! .... and somehow that led me to here#anyway....#i'm just getting emotional reminiscing about my love for sailor moon and combining it with my love for the rookie#i joined her at one point and eric and nathan were so confused aewrsdtghijkl#they were like 'what's happening right now??? do you know what's happening right now????' 😂😂😂😂#it's 4:30 am.....

For my English course this year I wrote an essay on the debate of fine art vs contemporary art and I haven't reread it since I sent it in I wanna see if I can find this shit cause I have no clue what I ended up stating as my opinion
#it was crazy how many people i mentioned it to immediately started shitting on contemporary art#like id explain what i meant by fine and contemporary art and the majority of people would instantly talk about how ridiculous#they thought contemporary art was and how it wasnt real art and shit#my english teacher told me i actually changed his mind about the subject and like ultimately all i did was fairly compare the two#i didnt favour either one i gave them both pretty much equal time i think lots of people just havent actually considered contemporary art#at any length before yk they just go well this is art cause its pretty and theyve painted a thing and i know what it is#and this is pretentious bullshit because i dont think its pretty and i cant tell what its supposed to be by looking at it#i went to a modern art museum recently with my family and there wasthis one exhibition that was an indoor garden thing#and they all kinda went whats the point of that its just plants it doesnt even make a picture and moved on pretty fast#but all the plants had little signs next to them explaining what they were and why they were significant and oh my god#it had a kind of motif of the hanging gardens of babylon but it was mostly about war specifically palestine and the effects the war has had#fuck man. i spent a solid hour in there that shit really fucked me up. i love art.#there was another room filled with traditional south american stuff i think it was?#there was this fascinating film and all these coolpaintings and models but there was also a tiny little boom you could read#and it was of mayan love charms and holy shit Tumblr wouldve loved those i think i have a picture of my favourite page#it was like 'i want to join myself to him. i want this man to be my other half'#mmmm. anyway#tag essay#i love love love talking about art i could sit and talk about art for literally hours#wet floor sign

A little thought, since I mentioned the DeviantArt thing on my Tumblr anniversary post a couple of days back (but not the point I want to eventually make a larger post on -I'm still figuring out how to articulate that).
So, on this day in 2017 (seven years ago), I was on my first day, post-throwing my first DeviantArt account into official hiatus on the night of February 6th as a last-ditch effort to break free from a character-based roleplay friendship/partnership that became toxic, controlling, and emotionally abusive. I woke up on this day in 2017 from the weirdest, symbolic dream. It was the most vivid scene of walking around my old high school building, in which the whole thing was empty, save for a few broken fixtures left behind. Symbolic of this empty space in my life after throwing this thing out. At some point, I ran out of the building, and there was something that happened to me, which, for the sake of those who might be triggered by it, I won't describe -but it was suggestive of getting rid of something unhealthy in my life. And then, despite the disturbing images in the dream, it ended with me looking to the sky, and between the grey clouds, the sun was still shining. Despite how screwed up everything was.
There are a lot of nuances to my particular experience that left a lot of grey area, and obviously, feelings don't disappear overnight, so there were a few weeks of grieving -the worst of which hit a few days on later. I don't remember much about this day in 2017, aside from that it was a bright, sunny day that just felt so weird in my state of shock.
With this past fall, finally reaching the point of peace where I can look back on this time and not blame myself in some way for it, and not feel any regrets about it... I've realized life has come full circle in a lot of ways to what I was dealing with then. In 2017, I was in my first year of college, watching my grandfather go down with heart failure from miles away from home (he lost his battle one week after I got home from the end of Spring semester). Here in 2024, I'm finally in my first year of veterinary school, back in the same town, I've got three family members in hospice, and I don't know if my grandmother's dementia battle is going to hit its end before or after I get home from this semester. I’m watching another online community I was once a big part of slowly melt down -perhaps one I became far closer to than the one I’d been in on DeviantArt. Maybe that hasn’t been with as much nasty, divisive drama -albeit there has been some nasty gossip at school the last couple of weeks that hasn’t been the easiest to hear. Not much in life has changed at all, really, for that many year's difference. It's not easy, still, but it is easier to deal with. Not because anything has changed, as I once thought based on how some people have described. It's just easier to accept and put into perspective, and maybe not necessarily stop caring entirely, as the cynical viewpoint would say, but better knowing how to limit how much I do care when it's not worth the stress -or just something that’s out of my control.
And as I was walking outside in the waiting period between lecture and lab earlier this afternoon, I noticed it was one of those bright, clear days -just like that really odd day in 2017. And it reminded me of the one coherent thought I could tell myself back then.
“I'm still here, and the sun is still shining.”
And I still am here, and the sun is still shining, and while it seemed like the bare minimum first step at the time, I don’t think there was ever anything as beautiful as the sun in the sky today, finally reaching the other end of the journey.
#pardon my insanity#long post#a little bit behind why I joined Tumblr…#and why I abandoned DeviantArt just days afterward#toxic roleplayers#<kind of (if you count some thoughts on the recovery process)#it took from February 2017 to September of 2023 to fully come to terms with#it really does get better#not in the way it might seem like in promises#but it does get better y’all#and I hope everyone who’s gone through anything like I did knows that even though it can take a LONG time -it will#and it is the most freeing feeling there is#NW speaks

I DREW THE BLORBO! AGAIN! But this time with mouse ears :O
This is actually for a (not yet occurred) event in an RP I'm in, because we all agreed he deserves mouse ears, and we also all agreed it would be fun to have it happen over the course of the rp instead of just retconning the mouse ears in and pretending they were always there. I drew in the lines for the fingernails on the one hand, went "wait he wears GLOVES, FUCK, WHY DID I DO THAT" and then decided to just leave them because I wanted an excuse to do fun nail stuff
Time taken: like 5 or 6 hours? (My sense of time is bad) Program used: Paint Dot Net
Something something reblogs >>> likes, something something "click on image for better quality", the typical art stuff
#dragonshy draws#wordgirl fanart#dr. two-brains#dr. two brains#I am not adding all 7 billion names to spell his name actually#fanart#digital fanart#art#digital art#artists on tumblr#drawing#digital drawing#the tail was half-retconned in? we didn't pretend it was always there but also it got added before the events of the rp??#power of ''I always have some amount of timeskip between the time of Canon and the time of Character Joining the RP''#why you ask? well that's the time to slot in ~events I genuinely literally completely made up~#which is mostly just for ''random stuff they never did in canon but they totally would though''
