AU where a few years after Obi-Wan gives Luke to the Lars', Quinlan finds him and says "join the hidden path Obi, please see" and Obi-Wan tells him "bro I can't leave, Luke is here, but I'll still help however I can" so Quinlan leaves and comes back a few weeks later with a force sensitive baby. And Obi-Wan just stands there holding the baby thinking 'what the fuck do I do with this thing????' and he does what any rational person would do and gives it to the Lars' cuz that way Luke can have some siblings. This happens a few more times.
And that's the story of how Luke thinks babies come from Obi-Wan
I'm calling this the Storki-Wan au
#im imagining that Obi-Wan ends up starting a kindergarden cuz so many force sensitive kids in one place????#the neighbours are so confused as to why the Lars' have so many kids now and when Luke tells them that the babies come from Old Ben#well there ends up being a LOT of conspiracy theories#bonus points if cody finds obi wan and decides “nuh-uh some of these babies are ours now >:(”#and obiwan goes along with his because cody!!!!! cody is back!!!!!!!! cody!!!!#star wars#au#alternate universe#obi wan kenobi#quinlan vos

maybe a hot take but i actually dont care how good your parenting is, if youre filming yourself disciplining your child or filming your child having a meltdown and posting it youre just not a good parent lol. there are people out there whose entire accounts are dedicated to dolling out parenting advice via real videos of their children doing children things like failing to understand rules or being unable to cope with big emotions. and then a parent will whip out their phone and stare into the camera while going "now timmy i understand your feelings are very big and i love you but sometimes we have to do things we dont want to do" or even worse theyll be talking to the camera describing the event that led to the meltdown that theyre filming as if the kid isnt right there and able to hear it. genuinely if this happened to me id think i was in the fucking truman show no matter what trending tiktok parenting style my parent was using
#my mom actually did something similar but as i was born before the current generation of social media being the force that it is these days#her version of this was usually calling my dad and telling him everything i had done to upset her while i was in the room#its so hurtful and isolating to go through#like. watching a narrative unfurled about YOU and YOUR actions right in front of you but you lack either the agency or the words to explain#why its not true#adding onto that the social pressure of eventually having to find out that when you were a kid your parent filmed you crying#for strangers on the internet to see and congratulate them on how good of a parent they are or how spoiled you are or whatever#we live in a fucking surveillance state and now our first surveillers are our own parents!!! awesome!!!!

Hey doctor I've been feeling kinda down lately. Yeah it's actually the state of the world and how I and everyone I know can't afford to live anymore haha. All I really need is the ability to get enough rest while having financial stability and living a comfortable life lol. But our government isn't allowing that to happen which suuuuucks. so. being medicated is my only option unfortunately haha. Which meds will allow me to numb my thoughts about the world out so I can continue to be a good worker under capitalism? Yeah yeah I basically just need to be able to ignore the descent into fascism haha
#decreasing my meds has me more angry about the state of the world again#so I'm having thoughts about how the main goal of being medicated is to keep you integrated into capitalist society#bc the vast majority of mental health issues are caused by the way our system is set up#being forced to work all the time with nowhere near enough rest#being trapped w your family as a kid while our school systems are run like shit#being trapped financially in bad situations#not having enough energy to see your friends or go out and have fun...and not having the money for it#lack of sleep due to being desperate for free time at night#being bombarded with bad news all the time#arguments with people that wouldn't happen if it wasn't for fearmongering from propaganda news sources#not being able to receive proper medical care#being forced to mask all day at a job (not just for autistic people but for everyone – you literally need a fake 2nd personality)#being unable to complain about your job without fear of losing it#even people with disorders unrelated to capitalism would be able to handle it better if it weren't for capitalism#instead we have to sedate and numb ourselves out with meds to keep us from freaking out about it all#and to keep us from fighting back#.bdo

I genuinely think one of the worst parts of the digitization of media is that without a focus on physical media, we loose the tangibility of community that comes with it. People used to wait out in lines for an album release, lines in which all those people got to share in their excitement, got to feel the buzz of anticipatory energy in the air, got to chat with likeminded people and meet others (in their actual area) with a shared interest or subculture. There is something so visceral about that, and it's something that internet community can't replace. A tiktok or a tweet of someone saying "omggg i can't wait for the album!!!" is never going to remain a memory the way standing out in the cold waiting for your favorite band's new music would. And then we don't really experience that media in the same way either, do we? Because there's nothing quite like the anticipation of opening up a fresh CD or vinyl and hearing it play for the first time. It's an experience overall we've lost, and that saddens me. The fangirl in me is saddened.
#this goes for other things as well obviously#like what happened to midnight book releases?#im sure those still happen sometimes but I remember that being a big thing when I was a kid and you hardly hear of them anymore#but books are always going to have a strong hold on physical format and movies have the advantage of moviegoing#which i think moviegoing is one of the last staples of this sort of thing#though i feel we've lost some of the hype for midnight screenings that we used to have#especially with being able to prebuy tickets online and all that#all in all i just think that like sure the internet makes things more easy and accessible but like...is that always a good thing?#sometimes it's good as humans for us to be forced to leave our homes and be around people and truly enjoy something#you know?

actually you can go with seungmo + winter falls too. i think he's more of a winter falls girlie than lino. actually anything with winter falls 😭🙏
you knew what you were doing when you paired seungmo with my favorite skz ballad,,,,,,, your support and your mind will never go underappreciated in this house ♡♡♡♡♡
ᴀɢᴀɪɴ, ᴛʜᴇ ꜱɴᴏᴡ ꜰᴀʟʟꜱ (ᴡᴇ ꜰᴀʟʟ ᴀᴘᴀʀᴛ)
☄. *. ⋆
pairing: kim seungmin x reader (not endgame) genre: angst, reminiscing word count: ~1k warnings: heartbreak, mentions of blood (metaphor and imagery), all thoughts no plot (sometimes fanfiction is about VIBES and VERSE, not cohesive story telling), gratuitous sneaking in and bastardization of song lyrics
olive's notes: you know know i had to go full tumblr for the title of this fic. song lyric titles (with something in parenthesis) how i love you, how i have missed you, how you changed the very synaptic pathways in my brain ♡. nothing will ever be as influential as you ♡.
consider my mini writing event ?
It wasn't the weather that made you think of him.
No, because that would be all too cliche — tidy and neat — something easy to anticipate and, perhaps, simple to avoid.
In a way, you could blame it on the snow: the soft, fluffy flakes too carefree to be cold, spinning on the barely there wind, a graceful pirouette to a gentle, almost forgotten landing. It was beautiful — the first snowfall of the year — and because it's arrival was so benign (unexpected and mild, creeping into the edges of the day until it's whispered chill tickled your skin and it's gossamer flakes were delicately kissing your head), you had no warning against the flood of memory it would bring in it's wake.
It was the couple on the end of the street that reminded you, though, if we're to be fair to the elements and truthful in the story we tell.
Two figures at the furthest distance from your current standing, hand in hand, startled as they walked out of a shop and into sudden snowfall. The leftmost of the two, seemingly more ecstatic than their loving counterpart, stuck out their tongue, angling their head skyward, and after a moment, laughed in delight, or some approximation of it. They turned to their partner, kissed them on either cheek, and then took off their jacket to place around the other's shoulders. Perhaps there was an exchange of half-hearted argument, but the moment ended with the two of them walking off, one double-braced against the building cold, the other habitually turning their palms to the clemency of snow — as though the moment was pure and this weather something to be held.
Snowflakes fell of your cheeks. If you were to be asked, they were to be blamed for any wetness, there.
Memories come in waves, and they are a vengeful and needy sea: demanding to be realized, sure in the devastation they bear. But how long is it before an experience crystalizes into memory? What is the minimum amount of time that needs to occur before that passage is significant and longing for someone can turn into missing them?
You weren't quite sure if it could be called missing him: this gnawing, guilty feeling accompanying your thoughts of Seungmin.
Once, the two of you had been friends so close, no one could talk about either of you without mentioning the other. His footsteps always following yours, your voice a necessary addition to any of his statements. So close your names spilled into the other, so present there was a space carved in the both of you for the other to reside in. Side by side or in tandem, there were always two.
And there were two, that night, when your warmth was carbonated with a fizz of intimacy and bubbles of desperation. You confessed to the secret of loving him and he worshiped that attachment with his lips. Again and again, a mantra that intensified to the fervency of song.
I love you, love you, love you.
And how many times did you say that before the sentiment set to rot, and the permanence of that phrase became something of the past?
I loved you, loved you, loved you.
Again, snow fell on your cheeks, pulling you just far enough out of your mired thoughts, to remind you to finish your walk to that lonesome, quiet destination called home.
You had Seungmin for longer than you held him, and the feeling of his voice in your mind was more resonant that the touch of his lips on yours. Evocative, cohesive, tenacious — something you couldn't yet unstick from the crevices of your thoughts.
Seungmin beside you, Seungmin whispering into the shell of your ear, Seungmin placing his love in the spot where your neck met your shoulders, the crook of your grin, the place above your heart.
But the wind blew, the novelty faded, the movie ended and you were stuck in the credits where words became meaningless and effort was forgotten in the aftermath of spectacle.
The ease corroded, the bitterness spilled, past tense slipped into the habit of your speech until all the tenderness between you was finished and gone by.
I loved you, and it wasn't his words or yours, but something set on the table for the both of you to consume. A sentiment on which you both engorged and drank dry.
Everything had changed, and yet you were somehow still the same. Seungmin had been so clearly and undoubtedly part of you — you carved out his place inside you alongside him! You hollowed out a space for him, and he for you — and yet with the absence of him, should there not have been something desperate and bloody for you to fix? You had searched and pleaded and clawed at the edges of you to find that void so you might set it to rights, but it evaded you, still.
I loved you.
Perhaps it had already healed over.
Perhaps it had never been.
But still, that unfound cavity ached in you. It was filled with the sound of his voice, and the phrases in his diary he'd let you read and you held to committed memory — it was shaped like the palm of his hand when it cradled you, and it contorted to the essence of his grin.
Would it have been different, had you never said anything all that time ago, and instead chose to keep those feelings in a bottle, only to be uncorked should Seungmin, himself, had fallen first and told you so? Maybe you could have kept that bottle of spirits in the most hidden parts of you, and, on nights when your yearning sharpened to the point of a knife, drank from them — an alcohol of illusion — just enough to get by? Maybe he would have found the bottle, and smashed it to ruin, or maybe he would have loosen it and get the both of you drunk off your own delight.
You would have liked it, perhaps, had he been the one to fall.
Maybe then he would stare at the innocence of snowfall and mix the feeling of it's melt with salty tears.

Every time Ganondorf tries to give a tragic backstory to excuse his actions
#I’m watching Hero’s Purpose and yeah#my pity for you is basically 0 dude#which is actually a step up from the usual negative numbers you’re running#“oh as a child people pinned their hopes on me” ok??? you killed hundreds of people#“my people were oppressed” YOU APPARENTLY KILLED A LOT OF THEM TOO ACCORDING TO NABOORU#“Hyrule had nice wind and our wind was harsh” YOU ARE TRYING TO MURDER TWO KIDS FOR JUST BEING THERE#“Demise made me do it” Hm and yet you threatened Skull Kid way before he forced you to grab Tael

IM JUST SAYING. People will be like “tails is just a kid he’s just 8!” and “let Sonic characters experience and express trauma!!!” then be pressed about Tails cowering when Chaos caught him off guard in Forces
#hey guys if you’re a kid you’re going to be scared#even if you’re a kid who’s dealt with the situation before#guys if you’re a kid whose motivation for being brave is presumed dead you’re probably going to lose all your progress in becoming brave#hey guys guys guys guys guys his big brother- his picket fence- his motivation was dead and tails was completely alone#as in no one knew where he was and no one could come to his aid even IF he could make himself fight chaos#guys can you hear me guys??? guys forces did the scene dirty but guys we can use our imagination about what it was trying to portray right?#guys?#guys??????#sth

holidays are crazy when you have a shitty mom. a shitty alive mom on christmas is an experience ranging from inconvenient to traumatic that you have to deal with for a few hours. a shitty dead mom on christmas is just kind of sad no matter how you spin it
#I haven't slept because my sleep schedule is all kinds of fucked. this was my moms favorite holiday. I remember waking up early as a kid.#I remember being forced to go home as a young adult#I move out a week before my 18th birthday and don't tell her until dinner that day#she makes me come home the day after to take down the christmas tree#I do not remember that night because I have blocked it out of my memory#the last conversation I ever had with her was calling to ask her for money a few days after christmas#I lie in bed and I think about me and my sister under the christmas tree#I think about us going home for christmas dinner each as adults#or her coming home to the house I was still trapped in#and we look at each other from across the table to have a conversation our mother does not understand#we understand exactly what the other person is saying. we will never be there again#she invites me to christmas dinner with her and her boyfriend and his mom. I don't go#this was my moms favorite holiday#I feel sick to my stomach#ghost posts#text

once, when i was around 6 or so at daycare, i got caught in the kitchen trying to turn all of the drinks given to me (milk, juice, water) into it's gaseous form during nap time, because i had learned about the Kinetic Molecular Theory, and immediately jumped to the conclusion that the particles moved faster when heated because they were trapped to permanently move slowly as solids, but they didn't want to be moving slowly.
i have a very vivid memory of being sat down next to the high chairs so it could be explained to me that cells and particles do not have a consciousness, they don't experience desires or sadness when they cannot act on their desires, and they are not trapped into being slow forever until someone changes their form of matter, and this is the story i tell someone when they ask what i mean when i say i think i have too active of an imagination, coupled by too much empathy.
#i have adhd so it made me very sad to hear about the tiny little guys being forced to stay still#adhd#go vote#fucking vote#please vote#vote harris#vote blue#fuck trump#kinetic molecular theory#molecular science#preschool#science experiments#childhood science experiments#childhood memories#too empathetic#i mean it#i feel guilty when i get injured for giving my cells more work to do#at my daycare#our punishment for almost everything was being forced to eat chile#i love spicy food#so i also got caught pouring all of the chile into my mouth when no one was looking (they were looking)#i hated nap time as a kid btw#could never stay still#most of the time i was the only one allowed to walk around during nap time because they knew otherwise#i would just stare into the darkness#i love apple juice#child psychology#it's very interesting#tres interessant#daycare stories

Hmmmg thinking abt how Solange was objectified as soon as she was a teenager by most the rams she was around ( excluding family ) due to the fact she was one of the few sheep who could hypothetically carry kids since most either are too old and/or have been sterilized. ( before she lived with the farmer she lived with her aunt and cousins in what was considered a “ sheep sanctuary “ until it got raided and the sheep there died )
Then she was objectified and slowly groomed by the farmer who took her whos endgoal was to make her a subservient barefoot and pregnant housewife. He emotionally manipulated her, saying that she should be greatful she’s still even alive and that he could have left her to die but he didn’t.
When Solange finally spoke out and refused to marry him he either sold her out to he executed or kicked her out where she was eventually caught by heretics and executed.
It didn’t help that even outside of the farmer she was also objectified by some of the men there too ( they wanted to be the “ savior “ of the sheep race )
Now she’s objectified but in a different sense by being seen as a goddess/deity and while is less gross than being seen as a babymaker it still is incredibly dehumanizing to her ( despite not technically being mortal anymore ) especially because she never wanted to be one in the first place.
#tw hypothetical forced pregnancy#tw grooming mention#granted having kids doesn’t rlly seem to be genderlocked in cotl#so it isn’t rlly a 1:1 on pregnancy in our society and all#but still#there was probably so much pressure on sheep within their communities to have lots of kids when the culling began#and I feel like misogyny/general sexism still exists to some extent in the cotl universe#anyways Solange has a huge fear of pregnancy regarding being the baby/egg carrier#so regarding fankids ( if they even happen in my canon/universe since they’re more for fun ) she didn’t carry the eggs#so regarding a goatlamb kid Judas carried the egg and for a aymlamb kid Aym carried the egg#cosmic chatz#cult of the lamb

so many young women recently desiring to be stay at home mothers….the ironic part of it is that all of those women that do become stay at home moms will one day understand why the women before them fought so hard for them to not have to fulfill that role at the point at which they realize that their personhood has been entirely sacrificed in the name of motherhood & there is no going back on that. all women who are stay at home moms are forced to put themselves aside to take care of their children and husband & are forced to make that their entire identity & that is exhausting and dehumanizing. that is how betty friedan started second wave feminism w the feminine mystique. bc women finally realized that all women hated being housewives & there wasn’t smth wrong w each of them individually as they had all believed. but those that do not learn history etc etc……
#michelle speaks#being a stay at home mom is not sustainable for women in our society for a million reasons#& yet some women refuse to see that just to live out a fantasy they were sold as young girls#& for many of them i cannot blame them bc they r forced into it before they have the ability to really learn that there r other options#but for the women who r in a position where they can actively choose how to live their lives#that they would choose to be stay at home moms despite the insanely oppressive nature of it 😩#the thing is that YES there is an issue of women being forced to do economic labor & then come home & do the same amount of domestic labor#so now women r expected to do double the work right. however i want to propose a solution to this that might be crazy#women CAN & SHOULD set higher standards for men. do not marry a man that expects u to mother him. do not let him get away w slacking.#& yes that can be easier said than done. but my point being that setting higher standards for men while having independence that can allow#u to leave said man if need be is ALWAYS going to be the superior option to being entirely dependent on that man#listen i am DEEP on my sleep medication idk if anything i said made sense….#this woman on bb was like if i have 2 kids i’m not working i’ll br at home & i was like GIRL???? IN 2024???????#women should aspire to be so much more than someone’s mom…….u r a whole person w/o that.#this is mot to say that there’s anything wrong w wanting to be a mom it is abt women wanting it to be their whole identity#also this other woman keeps being like my husband LET ME be on the show girl he LET YOU???? IN 2024?????????????

Yeah the mouthwash game is pretty good

#the klock keeps ticking#gonna have to stew on this one a lot and probably go back from the beginning and analyze everything#but uhm. damn it goes so hard#just some things I WAS able to pick up that I wanna highlight#the whole ‘take responsibility’ thing has so many meanings but the way jimmy avoids responsibility for everything thats his fault#and takes responsibility for all the wrong shit like taking on the captain role after the crash and his ‘reckoning’#is him so not getting it at all and taking it upon himself to ‘save’ curly#he really does go ‘i learned my lesson’ while not learning shit its so good god#its so infuriating how it ends and its so good and it hits too hard ugh#i love the way curly is portrayed like he does seem like a nice well intentioned guy and a good leader#but like. everyone except anya is a man. so first off we cant say hed be as well regarded if more women were around#and the way he enables jimmy its too real like. he personally hasnt seen jimmy be that way so oooh#surely he cant be beyond reasoning with surely he just needs someone to talk to#its a very good subtle way of showing complicity cuz curly really isnt ill intentioned but he doesnt grasp the severity#and anya is trapped in this really unsafe position and her other coworkers are a kid and a drunk#also the way she acts around jimmy in his pov where shes like praising him is like#can be interpreted as her being scared of him and trying to stay on his good side#or jimmy being full of himself so his image of her is warped as some damsel fawning over him#and the way curly post crash cant speak or move he can just watch with one eye#and he in a very fucked up sense ‘takes responsibility’ for not putting his foot down with jimmy cuz he watches the guy be a horrible#captain and he literally experiences frequent assault cuz oooghh god the painkillers oof#their dynamic is very well written just the resentment and adoration jimmy feels is so fucked#he wants to be the biggest man he sees curly as the cake at his special party#forces curly to eat his own leg saying ‘someday he’ll thank me’ UGHHH#also the mouthwash itself symbolizes a lot of shit ive not gotten to think about yet but honestly one of the hardest hitting parts of the#game for me is the reveal that the stuff these people were risking their whole lives to ship was just. mouthwash. poor quality too#like stopppp its too real like we’re supposed to devote our lives to capitalism and kill ourselves for it and its literally for something so#so fucking worthless like you put everything into this but you contribute nothing to society#im def hitting the tag limit so ill finish with. curly in the cryo chamber absolutely going to die and the credits rolling#jimmy is so stupid and you know hes kissing his own ass for this and will survive i hate it its very good
