ok so a quick rant re: anti anakin tags on my anakin posts, the thing is that i really do understand why people hate anakin! i understand why the posts are tagged with insults and yelling. he did appalling things when he touched and fell to the dark side. like.. he's awful as vader, absolutely, but he wasn't always!
the reasons i love him and the reason that his story of corruption is meaningful are the same, he has to essentially change states from goodness to evil. there has to be something deeply good for him to lose, but to remain deep down. if you make him always evil, always terrible, you're rejecting his story.
like there's a reason george made sure that we see him as a kind and generous boy first, why we needed to see him as friendly and sweet. if he were just bad from birth, than he couldn't have helped but do evil. he would've had no choice, he was just bad to the core. but that's not the story of anakin!
the story of anakin is that he made choice after choice that led him down a path to hell. he could have turned back, could have been better, but he chose to be selfish because it was easier and he could. it's essential that it's a choice he made, because it's also showing that it's possible to choose to be good.
we have to be able to choose to be better, to choose to be selfless and kind. that's the moral of the story, and how vader died on the side of the good again. even the worst of us, who've fallen so far, can move toward the light! it's a distinctly hopeful perspective, there's no original sin here, we're born with the potential to be good and kind.
the fundamental story of star wars is basically a moral exhortation: everyone is capable of choosing to do good. so it's important that anakin was not always evil and selfish and cruel. he made himself that way because it was easier and it felt right. he let himself touch the dark side enough that he was swallowed by it.
this is why anakin is one of my favorite characters! he was good and generous and kind, he had so many redeeming and loveable qualities! he knew better, and chose worse, just like i've done too. i feel really protective of that goodness, and defensive of him in his youth. i do hate the man he became, but i can't help but love the boy.

At the company retreat, one extremely drunk girl asked what my pronouns were. (Eventually, it took her a while to word the question.) After the whole conversation was done, she goes- "YEAHHH GURL, Get on with--with THY bad self! See what I did?? They/them/thy."
I was almost holding back tears from trying not to laugh as I told her yes that's great you nailed it honey. Thank you very much I am feeling the love.
Anyway I've been assigned Thee/Thine at Supportive Drunk Girl

there’s something sooo sickening about how dunmeshis whole energy is like sometimes something terrible and awful happens to you and it changes you forever and nothing can make you the person you were before but there’s still love and there’s still sharing a meal together and there’s still living

I need to share how the IT guy at work greeted my department on CrowdStrike Blue Screen Friday. Never have I seen a man so shocked by the sight of perfectly functional computers

I love how whenever ATLA recognizes Sokka is smart enough to solve a problem but it’d be too fast they just stick him in some kind of situation. Like he COULD’VE stopped jet from drowning a town so they tied him up and dumped him in a forest. He COULD’VE figured out what that spirits deal was so they lost him in the spirit world for 24 hours.
