i think possibly my favorite anakinism and one i think about a rather unhealthy amount is his body language and how he almost always looks viscerally uncomfortable and vaguely like a child who is scared of getting slapped. even when he’s being confrontational he looks sooo defensive like wow girl you have never fully processed anything that’s happened to you and you will carry the weight of it forever

The scene where Qimir says to Osha, "You should learn to trust yourself," made my jaw drop.
So often in books/movies/tv shows the love interest says some variant of, "Trust me," and the main character nods and we all swoon at their love. But someone who wants you to trust yourself? Who is basically saying, "You have good instincts. You got this''?! Someone who isn't saying, "Lean on me, I'll take care of it" but is instead saying, "You are so capable. I believe in you"? A supportive partner who encourages you to grow and stand on your own?!?!
Hands down the most romantic thing on the planet.

What I love about Spy x Family's recent chapters concerning Martha and Henry—two secondary characters with little direct connection to the plot as we've known it—is that Endo's taking the opportunity to once again hammer home what the story's actual stakes are. The idea of potential conflict between Ostania and Westalis isn't just window dressing for a wacky wholesome badass family gimmick—the previous wars are real events that various characters lived through, and all of them are in some way affected by it and have good reasons to want to avoid another one. This is primarily an action-adventure/slice-of-life manga with a lot of sendups to spy movies and pop culture of the 60s, but I think those things hold much more weight with the thematic underpinning of the horrors of war and the ruin it leaves behind.

I have a huge problem with any time someone starts treating the Jedi like space Christianity because it fundamentally misrepresents the Jedi and the Force
The Jedi are not Christianity. The Jedi are religion as a whole. Thats why it pulls from so many different real life religions, yeah that includes methodism and buddhism.
The force is not God and the Jedi don’t treat it as such. The force is love and compassion.
They do not force their beliefs onto anyone either. There are so many religions and understandings of the Force that coexist with the Jedi. You can not say the same for the Sith.

Rex: What has you two laughing so hard?
Waxer: *wheezing*
Boil: *holds up his helmet* We tried to make a video with the General, like those ones owners do with pets where they wake them up with their favorite treat?
Fives: *comes at the sound of memes* Oh? How did it go?
Echo: What even /is/ his favorite treat? Tea?
Waxer: *shakily standing after wiping away the tears* It’s a specific blend of red that’s been banned from trade, but Senator Organa got him a few boxes of it recently.
Boil: I still think it would have worked.
Rex: Wait, you think? It didn’t work?
Boil: We tried, but Cody is guarding him, he’s wrapped /tight/ in a blanket roll and sleeping like the dead. Cody threatened my manhood if we woke him.
Waxer: *wheezing again* Instead we have footage of Cody smacking the shit outta us like an angry tooka.
Rex: lmaooo

Does anyone else read fics that have absolutely zero conflict? And it’s all just nice and sweet?? Because reality is just such a kick in the teeth?? No? Just me?
Like let me have my silly little guys and let them be in love with no trauma whatsoever, okay? Okay, great. Just let them be silly.
