Erin Reed at Erin In The Morning:
On Tuesday, Democratic presidential nominee Kamala Harris announced that her pick for Vice President is Tim Walz, the governor of Minnesota. In recent years, as trans and queer people have come under attack from over a thousand proposed bills, Walz is expected to serve as a source of optimism for LGBTQ+ people. The governor’s long track record on LGBTQ+ rights positions him as a strong oppositional force against what has become a national attack on LGBTQ+ people, particularly transgender individuals.
“I am proud to announce that I've asked Tim Walz to be my running mate. As a governor, a coach, a teacher, and a veteran, he's delivered for working families like his. It's great to have him on the team. Now let’s get to work. Join us,” read Harris’ statement on Twitter. Walz has taken decisive action against attacks on transgender people in surrounding states, making Minnesota a refuge for those seeking care. In 2023, he signed an executive order protecting transgender people from out-of-state prosecution if they seek care within Minnesota’s borders. The executive order also issued a bulletin to health insurance companies, mandating coverage and initiating investigations into health insurance denials in the state.
In 2024, Walz signed a bill banning the gay and transgender panic defense. This defense is often used to help individuals avoid murder charges or receive lighter sentences by asserting that they were "deceived" by a romantic partner who was gay or transgender. According to one study, the transgender panic defense has been used at least 351 times. Walz's pro-LGBTQ+ record goes back much further than his time as governor. In 1999, he sponsored the first gay-straight alliance at his high school while working as a teacher. In Congress, he co-sponsored the repeal of the Defense of Marriage Act and voted to repeal Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell.
Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz (D)’s track record on LGBTQ+ issues has been stellar, dating back to his pre-Congress days.
This makes me glad that he is the nominee.

Concept art for the Eleventh Fleet - Mitt'raw'nuruodo.
Hands got to the rendering of Mitt'raw'nuruodo's sketches. It was unusual to draw him without the Grand Admiral’s signature hairstyle, but I really wanted to make a strong contrast between his life “before” and “after” starting his service in the navy. Life on his home planet certainly wasn't easy.
+ some parallel with Ezra and his fate.
…And I still think the idea of making Thrawn's kintsugi-style form during his exile is my best idea :3 After red eyeliner on Karyn's eyes, of course.

I noticed something that never comes up in the discussion of whether it was wrong of the Jedi to fight in the clone wars (surprisingly from both the Pro Jedi and antijedidiot camps) is that the separatists want all the Jedi dead
Like even aside from that being implied by the separatists being controlled by the sith, Count Dooku and General Grievous explicitly state that they're in this to kill the Jedi, their idea for how the war goes is inseparable from the mass murder of the Jedi
(and it's not like anyone else in the separatists are against it, most of the military leaders are only slightly less murderous psychopaths than Dooku and Grievous, the corporate leaders hate the Jedi for always ruining their "get even richer" schemes so they won't protest, and the civilians and political leaders of the separatists are powerless)
Being neutral and staying out of the war was never an option for the Jedi, one side's goal was to murder them

Shadowhunter/Downworlder teamwork to not have to suffer their leader's bad mood
Alec gets sassier and saltier the longer he and Magnus get cockblocked. At some point, his subordinates just can't take it anymore, and countermeasures need to be implemented.
Both Alec and Magnus have important positions and are often called upon to deal with various things. So when the NY shadowhunters know that their boss is on a date with the high warlock, and something popps up, they do their level best to handle the situation quickly.
And if they need to establish better relations with the Downworld in order to get the help of another warlock for something just so they don’t have to call Magnus away from Alec, then that is damn well what they do.
New York shadowhunter/downworlder alliance as a byproduct of people not wanting to deal with their leaders when they haven't been laid enough.
"You think Lightwood gets bad? Magnus pouts. It's a lot more disturbing than you think! And he keeps sighing forlornly. And then he tries to distract himself by getting into everyone's business or inventing new things. Do you know how some things sound like good ideas at first, and then turn out to be horribly annoying? It's that 24 fucking 7 every time the High Warlock doesn't get to see his boyfriend enough."
#magnus bane#alec lightwood#malec#shadowhunters tv#malec headcanons#crack#malec are not happy campers when seperated too much#the people in their territory form an alliance to prevent as much as possible#at some point it just becomes self defense

another star wars costume design rant:
THE CHISS EXPANSIONARY DEFENSE FLEET UNIFORMS ARE SO SEXY AND THE COMBAT UNIFORM IS SO UGLY
LIKE THIS??? sexy hot. The BELTS!? So good. The cut is so nice. Overall just so mouth watering. It’s very similar to the Imperial tunics but yet distinctly different. Love the rank insignia on the collar, the buckles on the belts. So crisp. Mm.
and then …
THESE are your combat versions????The green!? Atrocious. Abhorrant. I honestly think the color is the main issue. But the cut is soooo unflattering! It’s so bulky and stuffy.
anyways thanks for listening

i think its really obvious with my chosen & dark obsession at this point but i NEED to see them being friendly & domestic and more gentle with each other in canon at least as a flashback
#animator vs animation#all we got were hold on ill count#fighting together obviously#cho offering alliance. them both having a moment of expressing anger on noogai after it#cho sharing power with dark. high five number one when they were destroying the pc#cho taking dark by hand when escaping the pc#highfive number two in the portal tunnel#dark being happy seeing chosen in his computer lab and when he was showing his virus' properties#continuing to hold chosens hand when the latter tried to stop him and placing it closer between them both to question him#(mental about this a bit)#dark not immediately attacking chosen in the showdowns shack just observing his actions#and dark being ONLY defensive when chosen attacked him and not attacking him until he falls of the cliff and sees chosens lack of care#sorry im being insane#this is my blog as you can see i knocked over many chairs because i get so tilted at chosen & dark duo#alan becker#ava tdl#ava tco

Sunday's two-hour Thrawn's sketches.
After the release of the second part of the comic book about the continuation of the Grand Admiral's story, the desire to do something more or less normal with the combat equipment of the then Senior Captain Mitth'raw'nuruodo did not disappear anywhere.
Only changed a couple of details, but I already like how the design echoes the regular CEDF officer's uniform.

Hey in DM, does Riverthunderclan all live in one camp? Or are they separate now? If living separately, do the three hop between the clans to see both parents?
Riverclan and Thunderclan are political allies, not joined together, so they live in different camps.
The three will stay put in Thunderclan, it's about where to put Hawkfrost, and that is determined by whether or not I make him Leopardstar's son. If he is, then he is a warrior from a powerful family, but still just a warrior. And as such spends most of his time in Thunderclan when the kits are under 6 moons old.
If he's not, then he's the deputy of Riverclan, and he does the equivalent of visiting every weekend or so.
I'm leaning more towards the former since, regardless of his loyalties, Mistystar making someone so young and somewhat impressionable deputy is unlikely to say the least. That and keeping one of Leopardstar's kids in a different clan and in the eye of two clans while the other is in the medicine den might subconsciously put her at ease. I'd assume she'd get a bit paranoid after committing regicide then dealing with the children of the worst dictators in modern clan history.
#warrior cats au#dark mirror au#warrior cats#dm!mistystar#dm!hawkfrost#though I drew her as sadistic I actually imagine most of dm!mistystar's actions are done out of fear#I mean she is being sadistic in that drowning Leopard comic but in her defense she's been dreaming about it for like a year at that point#also she 100% allied with thunderclan to break the unofficial alliance Leopard and Black had going on

oh god. I've watched enough clocktower to have opinions on storyteller decisions.
#in the legion episode and ben decides not to kill anyone on final 3 bc he thinks evil still has a chance#but adam and sully just the day before fully made an alliance and trusted each other#and were gonna vote together no matter what.#so luke had no chance to defend. and anything anyone said in his defense just confirmed legion#like. adam wasnt even considering their argument. it was pointless.#and everyone in the comments is like 'yeah evil didnt deserve that at all they didnt get a single good player executed'#'they failed to do the thing legion is supposed to do'#but like. there's no rules that say you have to do that#they kept the suspicion off most of them throughout and strategically played against each other#just because they didnt play it the established way like.. they still made it to final 4 with brooke and luke alive as evil#vs adam and sully.#any other demon if they nominated and got it wrong evil wins#and they nominated and killed brooke. and the day didnt end#if luke got to pick a death evil would've immediately won. i think they earned that#anyway. who the fuck cares. i should go to bed now.#no rolls barred#nrb plays botc
