"American individualism has a lot of problems and can lead to a loss of supportive community networks" - true, a problem worth talking about

"Individualism is a poison and anyone who wants to maintain a level of independence from their family, culture, or community is suspect" - BAD. WRONG AND BAD. THIS IS EXTREME CONSERVATISM DRESSED UP IN A PROGRESSIVE HAT

ngl gang I finished both my dissociation fixation games and got a rejection letter for a job I was a shoe-in for after a month-long, three-pronged review/interview process and I am not having a great time

I always get detained at da border because PROFUNC never ended but basically I'm like if a targeted individual didn't even care

this reminded me how, primarily, the reason why I don't actually have a ' main ship' is because Nimo and I had somehow made the most convoluted love dodecagon . . . . . relationship chart ? ? ? to ever exist. , honestly ? it don't even make sense anymore. ( nimo might argue, but don't listen to her. )  ⸻ at least, we maintained that Miruku does end up ' alone ' ? sort of. ANYWAY HE JUST WANTED TO BE FRIENDS WITH ALL 17 of them. / jk estimation there isn't actually 17 love interest

So I finally watched the 2D clone wars show, and I gotta say, it’s PHENOMENAL!!!

I now adore every second of it, in all of its sassy, oversimplified, primitively scripted, 2D glory!!!

I LOVE how Kenobi spends practically the whole time 100% done with everything, Anakin really is a disaster at heart, half the time the animators zoom in on something, just to start at a picture of a droids face while it talks - with zero motion whatsoever, Windu’s rocket punches, Yoda’s dramatic expressions, PADME and the marriage drama, the bazooka ARC (that guy had tired Rex energy, I LOVED it), a very different perspective of the moments right before Kenobi and Skywalker enter the battle of Coruscant, and it clearly was so inspirational for so many other SW shows!!! Not to mention how it flushes out so many things I’ve always wondered about!

And this is where the tradition of warning Anakin of his fate begins! And he still doesn’t get it! AND he’s 100% dramatic ALL THE TIME!!!

It’s amazing!!!

But it does bother me how many of the clones are truly treated as disposable! It’s like the only ones that make it out of the conflicts are the Jedi and the Sith! They just got mowed down left, right, and center!!! It was so cruel to them!!! And they mostly avoided giving ANY of them names!!! Cody was in it, and 1 other named guy but I couldn’t figure out what his name was. The Commander in red who led the ARCs! They were the only clones that (mostly) survived!!! It was so sad to watch them all just get disposed of so quickly and easily! They didn’t have to do that!!!

right wing media about ceasefire protests really has my parents messed up...in the run up to one simple non disruptive (not binding ourselves to a bridge or whatnot) protest today, both of them have expressed worries about violence and antisemitism and hatred...like idk i know one of them has never been to a protest and the other only briefly, but like...right wing media really has people's minds fucked up, they think every rally is going to turn into a hate rally or something. the funny thing is, though, if you talk to people long enough, including my parents, most of them will eventually be like "okay I'd be fine with a ceasefire. as long as they return the hostages and stop launching rockets too" and it's like yeah...fine...then we agree? there should be a ceasefire? asdf;lkasdf;ladsfjdfsjsd;f like don't insult me i'm your own daughter and i've never expressed antisemitism but the moment i want to go to a ceasefire protest they're like WATCH OUT WHAT YOU MIGHT GET SUCKED INTO...okay you watch out, because in a couple years you might realize that tens of thousands were killed with your tax dollars and you did nothing to stop it???? idk? also how is calling for a ceasefire antisemitic, when in the US, Jewish people have been among the most vocal in calling for a ceasefire, second only to Palestinians themselves??????

Can't sleep bc i'm jittery so i'm dropping more Foxglove ramblings. Anyway her most religious trait (asides from mommy issues) is that she genuinely dgaf about money and wealth. She values beauty/aesthetics and a good posture but she couldn't give less of a shit about the price of things + her one good action to the world is that she doesn't mind giving money away with not a single care in the world. And yes it's maybe because she lives in delulu land and believes she's divinely protected from ever running out of what she needs. This makes her extremely hard for Avery to control without violence though

Free universal vocational training. That's the answer to the radical feminist argument that women should be prevented from doing sex work. This is how you get liberation for sex workers (and all working people), not utterly undercutting sex workers' ability to work, making working more dangerous, or sending them to a Magdalene Laundry-esque institution.

If you don't write Ben as trembling, shaking, tripping over himself, stumbling to his knees for Rey I don't think you actually understand the character as he was in that moment

Rey could have ended that war by taking his hand tbh. If she had taken his hand she absolutely could have convinced him to do anything in that moment. He just killed his master, the man who had been in his head for 30 years, manipulating and destroying him from the inside out. He had no sense of personal identity, just a loose sense of morals and ideals and his obsession with her. She fully controlled him.

Obviously she did what she thought she had to do but I'm only observing. She wanted the death and fighting to stop. I do think if she had taken his hand she could have convinced him. He wanted to bring about peace and balance like his grandfather, he just didn't have all the right tools, like, rey's goodness and a different perspective.
