Mine's currently the Spider-Gwen theme. I've been bitten by a radioactive earworm.

ATTENTION

If you see this you are OBLIGATED to reblog w/ the song currently stuck in your head :)

[eclec-tech]

It ATE the crew! "I have a plan."

[eclec-tech]

I'm sick of internet negativity, so let's combat it: reblog this and saying something nice/pay a compliment to the prev in the tags.

[eclec-tech]

The poster we should have gotten!

I know exactly how next week's episode is gonna play out guys #TheBadBatch #FreeZilly

[eclec-tech]

This gives me major Temple of Doom vibes! Willie: Let's get out of here. Indy: Right. All of us. (huge revolt and escape of children and drugged captives ensues)

Guys what if Emerie actually knows how to break the mind control of the CX's? What if Crosshair knows about it but Emerie actually knows what goes into it? Hemlock puts them through rigorous conditioning, but he likes his chemicals too right? We saw that last season. What if the conditioning is a combination of drugs and psychology? Some cults use drugs and psychology and even things like hypnosis and meditation to control people. It is highly effective. Someone who was put through that (Crosshair) might be so mentally broken down by the process they can't know what all went into it, but someone helping Hemlock might.

Echo said they're freeing all the prisoners who've been experimented on. That means all the clones. All of them.

Tread carefully, OP. This may not go well for you.

Posting hate-filled diatribes of a beloved character and then posting an overcompensating list to counter being labeled a racist because of those diatribes is completely within your right.

However, keep antagonizing anyone who disagrees with you by tagging them repeatedly in your hate posts, and you may well find yourself getting tagged by those same people in everything containing Phee Genoa or the TechPhee ship.

Think before you continue.

I’m just about done with finals, so I decided to gather up a quick list of over 50+ different POC women characters with actual good stories and character development as well as what they’re in, since you guys seem to be complacent in accepting mediocrity🥰

I know there are A LOT more REALLY GOOD characters out there, like Firebird from Marvel for example, but these are all characters from media that I either have personally consumed or know a lot about that I can think about off the top of my head. So if anyone wants to keep the list going in the comments, please feel free to add on

Charlotte- Queen Charlotte: A Bridgerton Story

Shuri- Black Panther (MY LOVE😭❤️)

Okoye- Black Panther

Nakia- Black Panther

Queen Ramonda- Black Panther

Katara- ATLA

Korra- LoK

Toph- ATLA

Azula- ATLA

Beauregard- Critical Role: Campaign 2

Fy’ra Rai- Critical Role: Exandria Unlimited

Opal- Critical Role: Exandria Unlimited

Deni$e- Critical Role: Campaign 3

Deanna- Critical Role: Campaign 3

Lady Kima: Critical Role: Campaign 1/ Legends of Vox Machina

Mulan

Tiana- Princess and the Frog

Esmeralda- The Hunchback of Notre Dame

Nani- Lilo and Stitch

Raya- Raya and the Last Dragon

Mel- Arcane

Ambessa Medara- Arcane

(Special shout out to Ekko from Arcane because he’s SUCH A GOOD CHARACTER)

Storm- Marvel comics

Wonder Woman- DC comics (she is Mediterranean, which is located in the North Africa/ Europe/ West Asia region, for the incels who are going to try to fight me on that. Just because your skin has less melanin than people “think you should have” does not invalidate you being a POC)

Nubia- DC comics

Special shoutout to General Nanisca in The Woman King. I have not watched it yet, but I’ve heard a lot of great things

Valkyrie- Thor Ragnarok

Gamora: Guardians of the Galaxy (though, she’s not human, she’s a Zen-Whoberis, but her actress is Dominican and Puerto Rican)

Ava Silva- Warrior Nun

Sister Beatrice- Warrior Nun

Sister Lilith- Warrior Nun

Deyha- Genshin Impact

Candace- Genshin Impact

Xinyan- Genshin Impact

Janai- The Dragon Prince

Netossa- She-Ra and the Princesses of Power

Entrapta- She-Ra and the Princesses of Power

Perfuma- She-Ra and the Princesses of Power

Mara- She-Ra and the Princesses of Power

Frosta- She-Ra and the Princesses of Power

(All of whom are Etherian’s, not Terran’s, which would equivalate people from earth)

Mazikeen- Lucifer

Wednesday Addams- The Addam’s Family/ Wednesday

Calliope “Cal” Burns- First Kill

Talia Burns- First Kill

Yennefer- The Witcher (actress is of Indian descent.)

Triss- The Witcher (some debate can be had about this due to her character in the games being white and her actress in the show having South African heritage. I enjoy them both equally)

I would add Pocahontas to this list, but the Disney recreation of her story is an extremely incorrect and awful retelling, so I implore you to go and look up the story of Amonute/ Matoaka, which is the true name of Pocahontas. It’s not an easy story to hear, but I feel as though people need to know her true story instead of Disney’s romanticized one.

Also, if you guys REALLY want a good female POC pirate story, check out the story of the most successful pirate in the world named Ching Shih, aka Cheng I Sao. She was a woman born in Guangdong, China in the late 18th century and worked as a prostitute until she caught the eye of Cheng I, the notorious Commander of the Red Flag Fleet. After buying and marrying her, he noticed her intelligence, leadership skills, and determination, so he began to teach her about life in the high seas. She quickly adapted and helped him lead his fleet, and when he died she assumed full control over his fleet and amassed 1,800 ships and 80,000 pirates under her control and became the most feared pirate leader of her time. It’s a VERY cool story

I caught this great post about how incredible the clones are when the notes had landed exactly on Echo's CT number--a fun bit of irony.

Navy Seals train for about 2 ½ years. Clone troopers train their whole lives, and say if they start physical training at 7/14 that’s 3 years.

What I’m saying is we should take the competence of any trooper and multiply it by at least five.

Even the most standard trooper is equal to any elite operative. I’m talking about Captain America and Winter Soldier rolled into one. They’re so accurate it’s terrifying. They can sprint like it’s the Olympics and barely be winded. They can and do tear droids apart with their bare hands. For fun.

ARC troopers? One man army, able to keep up with the Jedi. The Padawans all check and double check if they have the Force because they can’t even do that. When all is lost send in an ARC and they will win 1000:1 odds. The originals have to be kept in storage because the Kaminoans look at them and remember what fear feels like. They can take any weapon and find a way to level a city with it. The only limit an ARC has is numbers.

And Marshall Commanders. Legends. Death. Fox’s armor is red with blood mixed with the sand of the Geonosis and painted with a promise of vengeance. Cody’s armor is the rising sun of his victory, glorious and inevitable. If Neyo knows someones name, he also knows what they’re going to eat tommorow. They say Bacara simply can’t be killed.

Anyways. Just. Any and all the clone troopers pushing every limit.

[eclec-tech]

HARDCASE! That man lied to a Jedi to his face and got away with it! The other clones may suck at lying, but Hardcase got the gene!

"All clones are bad at lying."

This is Hardcase erasure and I won't stand for it.

[eclec-tech]

This is where it came from. I'm unsure about its authenticity, but seeing as there is still no confirmation of this on any other site, I'm beginning to wonder myself...

Well, I don't think we'll get that final one-hour episode, folks. Some people are already talking about it on Instagram.

[eclec-tech]

I have never hoped to be right about something so badly in my entire life! If what they are saying about the finale being 25 minutes is true, I see three outcomes:

We get a disappointing series finale that doesn't tie up many loose ends.

They tack on a surprise 16th episode that hasn't been announced, making this season the same number of episodes as the previous two.

A new series is announced that will serve as a partial bridge between the end of TBB and Andor, allowing us to see the birth of the Rebellion--BEST CASE SCENARIO.

The Finality of Season Three

My show predictions are usually wishlists. This morning's SWCE panel about the Bad Batch didn't have me wishing. It had me wondering. Why stop an award-winning, fan-beloved show after only three seasons? Why end something so perfect?

Maybe it was never supposed to last.

Rex is the key to my thinking this may not be over. He went off to continue the fight at the end of The Clone Wars, building a network of clones and informants. What he's been up to is something we have not been fully shown yet. We know that part of his work has been to get the clones out of the Empire. Gregor is with him. Wolffe is confirmed to show up in season three. His army of clones is growing and we know that the Bad Batch are some of his most trusted brothers.

I would love to think that maybe this is all leading up to a new series. There is a hefty chunk of mostly unexplored time between The Bad Batch and Star Wars Rebels and there is so much a new series could show us. Like the format of The Clone Wars, a new show could alternate between the different events happening during the time of the Empire:

—the politics of the Imperial Senate with the likes of Mothma, Chuchi, and Organa

—the plight of the enslaved clones where Rex, Echo, the Batch, and the other clones could come into play

—the guerrilla tactics of Saw Gerrera and others (maybe even Luthen Rael and the Fulcrum operatives)

—the building of the Death Star, aka Project Stardust

It doesn't seem to me like they are done with these guys. There is still too much story. But if season three does end up being the end of our time with Clone Force 99, I will still be grateful. They have meant a lot to me and will always hold a very special place in my heart.

[eclec-tech]

I'm so glad they didn't kill him. We would have been denied his pubescent scream arc in the show if they had.

We don't know where Tantiss is. That's funny to me.

Why? Because our heroes are on their way there from Coruscant, which is in the center of the galaxy. The trip could take DAYS depending on where Tantiss is.

So we have Hunter, Wrecker, and Crosshair trapped on a tiny shuttle with Rampart mouthing off at every opportunity...and Echo's on the other ship.

RIP, Edmon. It's been fun.

[eclec-tech]

There has to be more coming in some form then. There are too many loose ends to finish a SERIES in that amount of time.

Well, I don't think we'll get that final one-hour episode, folks. Some people are already talking about it on Instagram.

[eclec-tech]

Give this fandom one or more of the following variables and they lose their minds:

beard sexy voice chance of redemption

Wait—what were we talking about?

seeing the fandom transition from being hesitant about Rampart to openly stanning him has been a gift and a privilege

[eclec-tech]

Mwahhahahaha Hahahaha! Yep! I'm happy!

😁

"My Exceptional Find"

Dedicated to the TechPhee community of Tumblr. Your fierce loyalty to this ship and the characters within it inspired this little fic. 🧡

She remembered clearly what she had told him that night as they sat on the Archium’s stone steps and watched the stars drift from one side of the sky to the other. “We’re friends, Tech. Soldiers have briefings. Friends have conversations. And this conversation might have to continue when I’m not so bone tired from sea surge clean-up. Can I hear more about your brother’s sparkling personality tomorrow?”

He had smiled at that. “Of course. Good night. I hope your sleep cycle will be conducive to—”

“Sweet dreams to you too, Brown Eyes.”

My brain seeing the Providence potentially come together in bricks.(That is a LOT of hinges. Not fun.)

Color and shape tests. So many hinges. So. Many. Hinges.

Not sure that vertical stabilizer will sit properly but we'll see.

[eclec-tech]

Tech working from a stasis pod is a huge idea! I would love to have Echo and Rex (or Emerie) disconnect him as Tech and Rex disconnected Echo so long ago!

But for it to have something to do with the Zillo Beast is even better! Tech's fascination with that critter would make that a really neat story path! 😀

It's been years since we've seen those ears!
