It is absolutely comical how frequently this happens:

I'm scrolling my dash.

I see a reblog of some Star Wars (but specifically, Clone Wars) art from someone I've never heard of in my life.

I instantly think so myself, "Oop, I bet they're an anti" based on nothing more than the style of the art.

I check their blog real quick to look for a shipping DNI, and oh yup, there it is.*

I have a good chuckle over how the 'anti art style' in this fandom is like a mathematical formula at this point.

I block them and add their username to my 'filtered post content' list.

I have been wrong about this once since I noticed the phenomenon 2-3 years ago and it still happens at least a few times a month. Friends will occasionally send me links like, "I found another one!" because it's so blatant. 🤣🤣🤣

*For anyone who is blessedly unaware of this particular brand of fandom wank, the DNIs are always some combination of clone shipping, Rexsoka, and Obikin or master/padawan in general. And they're almost always right next to DNIs for things that, you know, actually hurt people, like racism, transphobia, etc. Toooootally logical behavior to equate those things. 🙃

Battalion Clone Commander: OK LADS, Listen up!

Battalion Clones: SIR!

Clone Commander: We are going to link up with the 327th after the next rotation, they need help dealing with another exotic planet! So get yourself a set by then men!

Battalion Clones: Sir Yes Sir!

Clone Commander: …

Battalion Clones: …

Battalion CT 01: Sir?

Clone Commander: You know what that means troopers…

Battalion CT 02: Oh…

Battalion CT 01: Oh yeah, THAT…

Battalion CT 03: Awww, we just painted them!

Clone Commander: Do you troopers want the 327th to launch you all out of an airlock?

Battalion Clones: No sir!

Clone Commander: THEN GET TO SCRUBBING THOSE SECURA PAINTINGS OFF THE GUNSHIPS.

Battalion Clones: *dejectedly* Sir Yes Sir…

Clone Commander: I leave for one week and you all regress to degenerates… I swear, I’m glad we have a old geezer for a General.

Cody canonically opts to straight up brawl with droids and yet is seen as calm and put-together while Rex is depicted as more chaotic and what I’m saying is do you think Fives and Rex meet up and talk about what it’s like to have brothers that everyone assumes do everything by the book but are actually so deeply inclined toward chaos?

You cannot tell me that the ARF Troopers aren’t insane- you just can’t.

You don’t just CHARGE INTO THE ENEMY while riding a walking laser cannon or try to throw hands with a Commando Droid that just knocked your buddy into the air with a SINLGE PUNCH and then grabbed them mid-air to throw them into the ground like a empty bottle of water without being totally insane

Thinking a lot about how by the time TCW comes about Anakin has already committed a grievous sin, already committed a massacre, already chosen his side in some ways. The man Ahsoka knows, the only version of him she ever gets to know, is built on an assumption of purity he has already lost.

He has already begun to fall, and this slip contributes in so many ways to his inability to pull himself back. Because the only person other than Padmé he tells his crime to is Palpatine, because he's the only person who won't judge him (and that in and of itself is a measure of his immaturity–– because he deserved to be judged).

And this contributes so much to Palpatine's control because he has this piece of the puzzle, this ability to go "Oh, but what about this?" any time Anakin tries to pull back from Palpatine's confidence. Because they both know if he ever admitted it to the Order he'd forever lose their approval, and that's what matters most. So Palpatine has this advantage, because he knows more about Anakin than anyone else and Anakin doesn't feel he can confide in anyone else.

But the thing is: for so long, Anakin wants to be better, wants to amend himself for this sin and more than once wants to confess to Obi-Wan, but every single time Palpatine is able to go "Oh but he thinks he's so much better than you, he would never understand you, he would judge you and tell the Order and they'd cast you out" but... Obi-Wan would have forgiven him anything.

I think a lot about Obi-Wan being such a Perfect Jedi (in the eyes of everyone else if nothing else) and how much that hurts Anakin. Because every time he tries to pull himself back from the ledge this epitome of what it means to be a Jedi is just there in his face reminding him of his own failure

WDYM Anakin is Luke and Leia's dad

I dunno if this post will reach the Star Wars fandom but I hope it does because I'm sure you all will get a good laugh at me.

As of recent I have developed a good hiperfixation for Star Wars, the thing is I knew nothing. NOTHING about Star Wars besides the fact it had aliens and...a war...in space? And funny swords. And main character is Luke or something, I spent over 20 years ignoring anything about Star Wars and somehow missing most references out there.

And recently, literally less than a month ago I saw a gif and said to my partner "oh this guy this guy looks cool, this gif looks nice" and he said "Oh well, he's a good character." And it all developed into me watching Clone Wars, the animated series you know and...and I was kinda blown away, on my opinion the show IS GREAT. And I love every character and their interactions, I love how much they focus on side characters, and they all seem very well written. I got hiperfixated really fast and saw Anakin and I was like "Omg, babygirl. He's a blorbo now."

And because of the show, this was super unexpected, but somehow I also got, really got, into the ship with Padmé because omg, cool woman. Literal happy squeaky noises of someone who was in a bad state and needed some good ol' distraction and comfort.

Now, like I said I knew nothing about Star Wars as a whole. And I still haven't watched the movies, besides the ocassional gif?

So imagine my shock, my surprise, my...bewilderment when I realized.

"Wait a minute, LUKE IS ANAKIN'S SON?! HOLY-"

Ladies, gentleman, and others, I think I came very late to this party and I don't even know how it took me so long.

Not only that, but because of this sudden love for the series, I went to my friends circle like "BESTIE, GUESS WHAT, I HAVE A NEW BLROBO AND A NEW FAV SHIP AND EEEP"

And my friends are like "omg that's amazing, what is it?"

I tell them, and of course they all know these characters and they all react like they know this very bad secret fact and I got told several times already "Please, don't watch the episodes 2 and 3 alone, it will hurt."

I feel like blissfully walking among rainbows and blue skies while everyone else know that my future is doomed. Somehow.

(Uncomfortable silence)

Not only that, but then I spent a whole deal of time thinking "Where the heck I have seen these guys" cus there was some fmailiarity I couldn't just point out and then one day I woke up, brushed my teeth and of all sudden I realized and it was such a shock.

Do you know how SURREAL is to get very into a character, and into a ship, and then realize they're the same from that super widespread meme that has been around for who knows how much time?

I swear I thought that meme was from some old medieval fantasy movies or something.

But alas, Star Wars now is EVERYWHERE. People do references to Star Wars ALL THE TIME and it's just now I'm catching them.

I got spoilers. From a meme. In a youtube review that had nothing to do with Star Wars hah. Everything is a spoiler, the world is an apparent spoiler. Now I'm here, trying to avoid spoilers from something everyone seems to know, even my family knows. It's so surreal and I wouldn't have it any other way 😂

Anyways, if you read until here, know that a wild ride still waits me, cuz I'm only starting Season 3 of Clone Wars and I don't plan to watch the movies until I finish the series.

And yes, I made this blog just to ramble freely about SW and draw stuff because it sparked my inspiration after a long art block.

Have this doodle I drew after watching the two first episodes, my offering for you reaching this far.

Note: Wouldn't Anakin and Padmé's ship name be Animé? Cuz that's hilarious.

tcw fans will be like “this is my comfort character” and it’s a clone who appeared in two episodes (and died in the second), had a single line of dialogue, and was given no characterization outside of fanon
