#we all deserve to see the stars

For Reasons, last summer I drove across the country with my sprogling. And I made sure we spent one night camping in one of those dark dark black patches out west (Craters of the Moon National Monument, BTW, much recommend) because we live out in the red/yellow heck that is the Mid Atlantic, and my sprog deserves to see the glory of a true night sky before its all washed out everywhere but the vast oceans.
It is one of the things I miss about living out in the Southwest. Yeah, I lived in a city, but just an hour and a half away on the highway were the emptiest places, with nothing between you and the horizon and the infinite stars.
The black areas represent the remaining natural dark skies in the United States
#dark skies#dark skies save lives#we all deserve to see the stars#fuck light pollution#national park service#dark sky park#i miss the southwest#never thought I'd say that

You know the cancellation was a mistake when even traders and big publishers are saying the show should be given a chance and is worth the risk. A lot of Star Wars fans are probably exhausted of the endless milking of the Skywalker saga, and The Acolyte was the perfect opportunity to usher in a new, independent era.
They had a show that could have taken Star Wars to new heights and drawn in a broader audience, as many people started watching Star Wars for the first time because of it. This show had the potential to finally break free from George Lucas's shadow and the nostalgia-driven focus on his characters—but instead, they let some men on YouTube scare them away from it.
#stories should be allowed to be given more than one chance to prove themselves but that’s not what they want over ther e#the acolyte#crying cause all we will see from Star Wars now is cgi to death versions of the Skywalkers and bringing animated characters to live action#could have had something special but noooo#they deserve this mess

The Natasha switch up is CRAZY.
I feel like I need it to be explained to me like I’m stupid bc I’m having a hard time with understanding how she’s snakey for chatting and pursuing Stefan.
Especially, if 👏🏾you 👏🏾don’t 👏🏾want 👏🏾him. 👏🏾
*And this RANT is for people who didn’t even choose Stefan or want him. Bc I’m seeing most of this take with them. Vs someone who is on her route. Natasha Stan’s I feel for you. It sucks.
I keep seeing three big reasons why she’s the “worst.”
1) She’s obsess with Mc and Stefan. And gladly is second best to Mc/wants Mc’s leftovers.
Okay, in order to relate it and make common ground with Mc is to tell us that “hey, we were both the same season. Except I was a casa girl. And oop, we might have similar taste, I tried grafting/dating your ex but he was so into you.”
“And overall, y’all appeared so perfect and cute. I admired your relationship and want to have a relationship like yours or have someone be that interested in me.”
(if we go off appearances. Bc Mc can say that everything isn’t what it seems. )
Like clearly she is our exposition/lore character to help us understand what is the status quo BUT narratively, you can infer the questioning especially as we get to Casa is to make sure Mc FOR SURE is done with Stefan. Bc let’s be honest. Ppl be seeing their ex’s and old feelings be coming up.
And they all here for a second shot at love. Plus she has history with Stefan, whether you believe it’s as strong as Mc and his, is beside the point. It’s Casa and she’s single, and he is too. She has the right to explore that.
2. If you’re on a Stefan route, she pulls him for chats knowing I’m interested.
Once again it’s love island. Step your pussy game up if you’re scared of competition. Like it’s chats, BFFR why are we acting like she’s stealing your man, being so vicious and talking bad and sabotaging you behind your back.
I feel like there’s nothing wrong with having chats and still exploring ALL available options.
I get the argument of “if we been spending most of the time with one li, why should she step in and talk to him.”
But at that point it’s the final chats before recoupling, I see no harm in getting final graft time or check in with all casa boys and villa girls to make sure you didn’t overlook anyone. It’s no different than the casa boys, trying to sell Mc about themselves before recoupling. Is that them moving snakey? (to Marshall in my game) And either way, Mc always chooses before Nat so you can still choose him. She can’t fuck you over.
3. It’s just shady behavior how she’s moving bc shes’s been pressuring us about him and saying we are couple goals. But she turns around and grafts and brings him back. Why not just say you want him from the jump?
We as in-game characters didn’t know he was coming back. I mean I feel like it goes without saying she was interested in him from their season. But it was pointless. So fast forward now, idk about others but her talking with him before and after our own clear the air chat. That was clear she is going for him. Go for it girl, I can’t be mad. I don’t want him. And it’s no girl code rule break bc she didn’t even know Mc before this show.
I ain’t gonna hold her to some dumbass standard when we all signed up for a show where we are literally sharing men. I just fail to really see the snake behavior.
To me it differs from Kat who takes your li unprovoked for a chat and heavily tries to flirt and make moves just because. Knowing damn well she’s full of hell and just wants to make her partner jealous, and she chooses yours because she respects Mc the least. 😭
Now if Nat was moving like that with Stefan or your li you actually wanted. We could talk, but girlie literally did what she’s supposed to do on the show.
Make a connection, lock it in and is bring him back. Idk I just find more and more of these overreactions in the fandom so annoying and exhausting from players.
Like damn no one can be competition no more. No one wants to work for their Li affection. They all should worship the ground Mc walks on and never acknowledge any other girl ever. It’s boring af.
Final thing, which just speaks to her overall personality or character traits. Some are holding on to her “shit talking” from the PDA Awards.
But was she wrong?! No! Kat IS and ALWAYS will be ANNOYING and a whiny ass bitch.
Calling Kelly basic was shots fired and Kelly def caught a stray but I mean…Kelly does have more of simple vibe compared to everyone else who embodies the *That bitch* energy. Still all love for Kelly though.
Like y’all please. The “shit talking” was some of the most tamest shit ever. And let’s be for real, if Mc said this shit or has options to be even more bitchy or cuntier, we call them all kinds of Queens, Savages, and Icons. But with Natasha she’s shady.
I’m sorry I REFUSE to let y’all slander Natasha. She be riding for Mc. Remember she was one of the only ones on our side during the PDA debacle with Finn. Whether you did mess with him or not. Like Natasha is a rider.
Even with the drama that Melissa brought, that was Melissa twisting things to be messy. Not Natasha trying to be hurtful. Idc this rant was for her bc I hate how yall switching up on my girl. It’s WILD!
#love island the game#litg all stars#litg#litg natasha#litg rant#the more I see it the more I’m genuinely baffled#like girl securing her spot#I’m sorry but chances ar Hamish was twisting on her ass#he likes her as a person but romantically is a whole other story#she deserves someone who gonna do right by her#also Stefan a catch#they both have similar temperaments they’d mesh well#I ride for Natasha#they can never make me turn in he#Natasha is my girl#if she’s shady then we shady together idc

The thing about the "Clone Rebellion" show
I've become a lot more critical of The Bad Batch lately and I think I realized that’s because it’s over.
That means that 1. I can look back on the whole show retrospectively, and 2. any issues or hopes I had no longer have a chance to be addressed or resolved.
I realized I’ve been very caught up in thinking about the missed potential of the show, and a lot of my disappointment/frustration with the direction TBB took (esp in regards to the "reg" clones) is coming from the fact that a Clone Rebellion show does not exist to make up for it. For now this is all we have, and it’s hard for me to just accept TBB for what it is, because I at least have been operating under the assumption that this is all we're going to get, that this fabled spin-off show is just not going to happen.
Because here’s the thing: We all kinda talk about it as if it's a given, a not if but when, but as far as I can tell the concept came entirely from the fans. Just speculation and wish-fulfillment. I don’t really keep up with news/interviews/behind the scenes stuff, but I’m pretty sure there have never been any mentions from official sources (y'all freaked out about one animation job listing that could be for literally anything). If there's something I’ve missed let me know, but for now at least there have been no announcements or plans or anything.
The only thing really is that the gaps left in TBB feel like intentional setup (we never got an Echo and Rex solo episode like we did with Crosshair and Cody which feels like they are saving it for something else, Echo’s fate was specifically left open-ended by not mentioning him (for better or for worse) in the epilogue, Emerie joins them at the end setting up for a female character to be in the main cast, etc) but that still doesn’t guarantee that we will ever actually get a show. That feels more like leaving the possibility open, not necessarily making plans. Especially since TBB actually puts any potential Clone Rebellion show in a really weird position:
There's a lot of important clone-relevant stuff going on during TBB (like Order 66, Kamino, the stormtrooper bill, Tantiss) but I doubt they would go back and show that again since it would either be repetitive by rehashing TBB’s timeline, or confusing by relying too much on people having watched another show. Yeah most people probably would have, but that still doesn’t work very well narratively if your important beats are just implied and happening offscreen. Like I would kill to see more of Nemec and Fireball but then they would just disappear after being killed off (for pretty much no reason) in another show! Hemlock and Tantiss base were designed specifically to be clone-centered threats, and the underground network were the ones who actually spent time searching for it, but then they weren’t there for the rescue so there would be no resolution. But if we instead pick up at the end of TBB it seems like most clones have already been phased out of the Empire by then anyway. Yes you could still make things work either way and come up with new plots and stuff but it’s still a tight spot to be in and it doesn’t really feel like the writers took that into account.
Whether we do get another show or not, I think it still had a negative impact on TBB though. Like that show already had a cameo problem, but 'setting up potential future show at the expense of the current one' is such an issue in any media (esp Star Wars and Marvel these days). Since we got pieces of both 'important stuff happening to the clones' and 'fun mercenary adventures with the Batch' rather than just committing to one or the other, or equally to both, it just causes issues for both shows. I’ve been working on a full post about the lost potential, but for now I’ll summarize as:
It hurts TBB bc we get these glimpses of a more meaningful story that our main characters, the ones the show decides to dedicate screen time to, choose not to participate in. It’s like that trope/bad writing thing where the story they mention (Budapest, or like the Cullens' backstories) sounds more interesting than the one they are actually showing us. Like it’s okay that the Batch didn’t take the same route as Echo and Rex, but the route they did take should be of equal or greater importance/intrigue, and it just really wasn’t. It was mostly directionless side quests and that made the characters seem selfish and a lot of the plots feel filler-y because there are so many important things going on elsewhere.
It's just starting to feel unlikely that we'll get TWO post-RotS "clone-centered" shows, so why waste the one we did get avoiding the more important clone-centered storyline? Why not at the least equally divide the time you did have between the Batch and Echo and Rex? Why make an ensemble show if you're not going to try to actually balance all the characters? Why bring back a fan favorite clone just to push him to the sidelines and ignore all his potential? Why focus on the "clones" who aren't affected by/don't care about clone issues?
Believe me, I still want a show focusing on Rex and Echo's efforts to save the clones (I just wish it was the show we got in the first place)! I genuinely hope that we will get this show someday, not just because I love clones and this concept, but because I really see a need for it, there's a lot of gaps and potential to be filled there (which is also why I'm okay waiting bc frankly I don't trust the current state of Star Wars writers to properly handle that potential). But I’m treating it with a more “not until proven otherwise” approach (because we all know what happens when we get our hopes up lolll). So for now this is what we have, and unless that changes, I think we should treat it as such.
A lot of times when I see people mention the idea of a new show it's as a way to fix any issues within TBB. Like ‘this wasn’t resolved that well, maybe in the clone rebellion show…’ ‘Maybe Tech could still come back in the clone rebellion show’ ‘Maybe Crosshair’s character arc could be more complete…’ etc. But again we don’t know for sure if there ever will be another show, and even if there is, TBB should be able to stand on its own. There are some things I think another show could do (like address the plot hole of why the Empire never came back to Pabu, or actually doing something with the CX troopers) but narratively it does not work for major plot arcs or character development like that to be resolved elsewhere (like how a major Mandalorian plot point happened in the middle of TBOBF???). If we do get a Clone Rebellion show I don't think it would make much sense for the Batch to play much of a role in it. TBB ended with a clear send off for those characters, whether that was fully satisfying to you or not, that was the narrative intention. The Batch could show up as cameos, but this wouldn’t be their story anymore, and we know it couldn’t be because they were very intent on retiring and clearly never cared much about the regs or Empire so why would they suddenly change their minds?
A Tech lives plotline would have to be centered on the Batch, that’s his family, but that would just be really out of place in a separate show, especially post-finale (which confirmed that Tech did not come back in canon (at least until Omega joins the rebellion, if you want to be nitpicky ig)). There always could be ways to make it work anyway if you really wanted to, but we saw what retcon battles did to the Sequel Trilogy, and it still wouldn’t really fix any problems in TBB as a show. I’ve said it before, but if the writers were going to bring Tech back then they simply would/should have (they knew season 3 was the final season and they had plenty of time which they spent fighting space gators and whatnot instead).
I'm not saying this to spoil the fun or like dash anyone's hopes or anything. I don't actually know any more than anyone else, I have no impact on what Disney and Lucasfilm do (and clearly they don't really care about making narratively functional choices anyway, get roasted). For all I know this post could age horribly. I just had some thoughts to get off my chest, because I think it’s unproductive to judge TBB based on the idea of an unconfirmed potential other show--that does not (yet?) exist and wouldn't be about them--instead of looking at it for what it is.
TBB is over. Canon happened, what we have is what we got. We can love it and hate it and critique it and write our au’s and fix-its, but I really think that it’s done. We have to make space for endings, that's an important part of storytelling (which is also why they need to be well-written but whatever). And we also have to make space for other stories to be told. The Batch had their show, they spent the screen time they had on what they did. Those characters got their time and they got a happy ending wrap up, and now it's (hopefully) time to let some other clones take the spotlight.
#all im saying is that if we DO get a clone rebellion show then the batch can only show up as much as Echo showed up in tbb#they criminally wasted the character with the most compelling story and potential!#and its frustrating to see people take the IDEA of another show#that started as a way for ECHO to get the screen time he deserves#and *again* make it all about the bad batch!#i know yall love them but there are other clones people!#(cough who aren't whitewashed elitist and selfish cough)#I know people always want more#but we always have fanworks and ao3 to give us our fill#tbb#clone rebellion#clone rebellion show when?#writing#tbb analysis#tbb critical#disney star wars#sw tbobf#the mandolarian#tbb echo#tbb tech#tbb crosshair#tbb wrecker#the ensemble show comment was mostly about him#captain rex#cx troopers#tbb emerie#I don't actually know/care much about twilight that was just the first example that came to mind lol

I am legit on my knees praying for the finale of Bad Batch to be an hour long.
#star wars#the bad batch#bad batch#season 3#like how would you cram an ending with so much still to go into 20 mins without it feeling super rushed?#its been so long since I've been so excited and stressed over an upcoming end to a show#ive never wanted a long ep for a finale so bad#the 20 min is just too short. especially for the finale of a series where we may not SEE these characters again#like....we need some kind of closure. not like a minute of post-battle#which they did in all their other eps where they went on a mission and had like a min before the end#i NEED that hour long finale#i really don't want it to feel rushed for the sake of a short ass time limit#the show itself and the characters deserve better than that for the finale of their ENTIRE show

Sometimes I think of Amy Pond, who grew up being called mad by those who wielded the word as a tool of exclusion and shame —
Amy Pond, who though forced into the hands of four psychiatrists, still clung to that which they called madness until those systems which elevate psychosocial conformity above humanity stripped it from her —
Amy Pond, whose imaginary friend reappeared for a single hour after twelve years and reignited that faith before disappearing for two more years —
Amy Pond, who spent those those two years under the same implicit threat ingrained in her through psychiatric violence, and thus began to believe the man who stopped the invasion was “just a madman with a box,” only for him to agree, and to also call her “mad, impossible Amy Pond,” reframing madness as non-negative for the first time in her life —
Amy Pond, who ignored the disembodied voice of her imaginary friend even as she ran away with him for real, who still lived each day with the traumatic internalization of deviancy dictated upon her by the psychiatric-industrial complex that shaped her from childhood —
Amy Pond, who wouldn't acknowledge the Doctor's voice, such that it took an Angel in her eye that was literally killing her to ensure she couldn't reality check herself —
Amy Pond, who stood before a room which muttered about “the psychiatrists we brought her to,” and though afraid, escaped their rigid parameters of acceptable existence.
#I like seeing it as indicating she began hearing his voice when he was gone for all those years! why else wouldn't she say anything?#actually psychotic Amy agenda#Amy Pond#eleventh doctor#reclaimed language#oh look its another antipsychiatry themed doctor who post#sumn abt in Fairies At The Bottom Of The Garden audio AND Imaginary Enemies comic we see Amelia bein called slurs against psychotic people#(shes called psycho in both)#like!!! and SO MUCH OF AMYS STORY is about her claiming her agency in ways that previous companions weren't allowed to-#companions whose status as a Wife was a signifier of an to end of their value individually- 'this is no place for a married woman' etc#in some cases Wife-ness forced upon them *as* a denial of agency 'I spent all that time trying to find you I'm not going back now!' etc#whereas Amys story deconstructs that; Amys “Choice” is an illusion- Amy being a Wife doesn't demote her agency as an companion#anyways I love that aspect of reclaimed agency for Amy but ALSO#“madness” as an expression of agency against systems of oppression is SO relevant. the mind defends itself and the alternative isnt better#the oppressive system in this case being ableist structures and the psychiatric system ITSELF which is a whole other layer#the moral being that even if the Doctor WAS a delusion? he'd still be a needed coping mechanism for a child who says “ppl always leave”#and instead of examining her feelings of abandonment they insist 'aLiENs DoNt ExIsT' as seen in the 'sTaRs DoNt ExIsT' psychiatrist in TBB#they don't care that she's in PAIN- why would they?- they just care that she's 'abnormal' and therefore not deserving of humanity#(eleventh) doctor is neurodivergent tag#I mean technically this is about Amy but I once (twice) used that tag on the post about the Master. its the spirit of it!#and Amy Pond + her Raggedy Doctor as “mad” people is very *chefs kiss*#((you know what im putting the tag on my last Amy post :D ))#Mels experienced this very differently and I'll make a post about her at some point- I just wanna make sure my points are got across better#sumn abt Amelia's “crazy” was Mels' “delinquency.” Amy treated as if she doesn't know her own life while Mels treated as threatening#sumn abt adultification of Black girls while Amy is infantilized#Amy Pond who could rewrite reality in a reborn universe because she grew up with a Crack in her wall that no one believed was special —#ableism#saneism#unreality#because I mean Amy's stand against psychiatric dehumanization was to REWRITE THE UNIVERSE with her Crack powers

#jung eun chae#kim yoon hye#jeong nyeon#Jeong Nyeon: The Star is Born#moon ok gyeong#seo hye rang#my babies 😳❤️✨#am just doing my part as a MOG fangirl to promote her ship(s)#am a MOG-multishipper though#so all ships are welcome#though I feel the need to promote her ‘canon’ ship because I feel SHR is not getting enough love#though her character seems to be the one with the most machinations on the show#but KYH is also a phenomenal actor and deserves love#and while I could agree with interpretations that SHR is having unrequited love for MOG up to the eps we have#interpretations of them being an ‘official’ couple in the drama (heavily implied) are valid too#this is me just basically HCing them as canon unless there is further evidence against the HC#regardless I don’t care whether they are drama canon or not#just want to see more of SHR and KYH#they are certainly webtoon canon ✨❤️🔥

Oh man. Lou Ferrigno Jr. I don’t know you from Adam. From what I’ve seen you seem like a good man but online personas of celebrities can be way different than they are in real life and we will never know so I can only go off of what I’ve observed and how other people have talked about you. But dude. You were a MASTERCLASS in how to be a bigger person when other people are behaving like their lowest selves around you. If I had been getting death threats and being called a racist and a predator and ugly and having my relationship with my horrible father brought up over and over again and having family members harassed and EVERY OTHER THING that was thrown at me. While still managing to be kind to both the people who are supportive of me AS WELL AS the people who are ACTUALLY WISHING FOR MY DEATH. ALL WITHOUT A SINGLE ONE OF MY COSTARS DEFENDING ME. I would not have been as nice about it.
#again. I don’t know him.#whatever misdeeds he may or may not have done seem to have been a long time ago#and I don’t hold people’s humor in the early 2000s against them because it was a different time period and things change and we grow.#but good lord#did ANYONE who worked with him on that show stick up for him?#besides just saying he was nice occasionally?#if they did I didn’t see it#anyways.#hope you continue to be a class act and star in a show that actually deserves you#not tagging the show but we all know what I’m talking about#lou ferrigno jr

#so here’s the thing-#and I am in awe of anyone who watched that episode who took those crumbs#and they were indeed literal crumbs and accepted it#but that doesn’t change the fact that we were robbed- and not just robbed#but the clip of Maya Rudolph at the Emmys this year where she pronounces robbed as ROB-BA-DAH#like explaining it here does no justice but I promise you it’s amazing#but we were told this is a big Tarlos episode#this would have a scene they couldn’t believe they got on tv- better than the second episode we were told#but this is the big Tarlos addresses their problems episode#and here’s what we got- one scene of them in therapy- almost all of which was released as a preview#like the only thing missing was the dinner scene#and also it’s unfair to say it’s such steamy scene when it goes nowhere because someone falls asleep#and the lack of context we have been given - it would have been better to jump right from the premiere to this one#because we were given nothing outside of the premiere to think they would do this#because the show doesn’t take the time to let us see these problems outside of one episode#like honestly this isn’t about TK or Carlos#because yes it’s like these issues aren’t easily fixed#but these issues should be addressed and especially since Carlos doesn’t seem like he would want to do this#and we’re told this in the 120 seconds we see of them in therapy#that it would be worthwhile to take the time to explain how they got there#but to say this is a big Tarlos episode - and their therapy scene is over before the title card#and to not see them together at all before they resolve everything#like we deserved more#we were told we were getting more#like to each and every fanfic writer out there let me grab you by the shoulders and tell you this#I wish you had written this season. I really do.#becuase the ones who did- they didn’t deserve to tell this beautiful couples story if they were going to be so careless with it#911 lone star#tarlos
