I've recently realized that I have a really hard time reading fics where characters like Ahsoka and the clones learn about Obi-Wan or Anakin's childhood angst, and all the other characters will be like, "aww, they had such a sad childhood :(" and feel bad for them. Because all I can think about half the time when they say that is "bitch, ain't that you???"
Like, I feel like I remember seeing a fic or comic with de-aged Obi-Wan where he implied he fought in a war as a teenager and everyone else feels bad for him, and I couldn't even fully feel anything in the moment because all I thought was, "mfs, Ahsoka is literally right there-"
I honestly won't even blame her if her reaction was just neutral or "yeah? And???" just because she probably doesn't fully realize how messed up her own situation is, or that of all the other padawans her age. Also, why would all these guys feel so bad when they already know a ton of other character currently in that situation and don't have that same type of attitude??? I think it just feels like ignoring the giant elephant in the room.
And then sometimes I'll read a fic or two with Anakin slavery angst but he's venting about it to the clones, who were specifically created for the sake of being slaves and are still very much currently enslaved. Or it at least brushes past the fact despite the fic having clones very much in it.
Honestly, the Zygerria Arc ended up pissing me off for the sole fact that Rex was there. Like I feel bad for Anakin and his trauma and issues, but also are we really gonna ignore the fact that Rex has always been a slave and his entire people are already in this exact situation, with the only difference being that most of them aren't actively being directly abused? And we're ignoring all that right after the "Clones Being Dehumanized and Treated as Objects" Arc? The arc where the clones basically realize "hey I think we might me slaves"? That arc?
If he weren't there, I wouldn't have cared as much. But the fact that everyone is going through slavery-related trauma and Rex, the resident already-enslaved-and-always-have-been guy, is completely ignored by the narrative makes me not care as much about the others' issues because we are completely glossing over the guy who will go right back to being enslaved even after the mission is over.
I don't know why the whole thing annoys me. I think it just gives me the same vibes as someone venting to their friend about their abusive childhood, but said friend not only also had an abusive childhood, but is currently experiencing domestic violence, and that's not even mentioned in the conversation at any point in time.
Does this make sense to anyone else? Am I just crazy? Or does anyone else sort of feel this way/understand what I'm talking about?

#pinyatalk#yes. ALL her content is spongebob. except for just that ONE video.#even tho i never watched arcane season 2 (i heard some Things about it that made me turn away from it lol) that essay was still utter PEAK#REALLY good political analysis and critique of themes and characters and such. GOD. plz watch itttt#she may be a spongepilled squarepantsmaxxer but she talks about this shit like she’s known it for yearsss#i haven’t watched the spongebob analyses yet tho. though if the arcane video was peak then all her spongebob stuff must be peak as well…#anyways here’s the videooo (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qAgP6V--qYM)

if you're in the throes of cosmic despair i cannot recommend museums enough. art or science or history it doesn't matter. oh we're all connected, all of us and everything, throughout all time and space, and no one, no one, no one is alone? awesome. that's what i thought i just wanted to make sure.
#museum#museums#how to work for a museum with a theater degree and no experience#i worked for a children's museum for a hot second but that doesn't count#except my badge gets me in to all the la museums for free Score

Look I don't wanna bitch but if your Tumblr fic takes longer to scroll past than the Do You Love The Colour Of The Sky post then it would be kinda appreciated if you put the majority of it under a Read More button
#no-one puts these on my dash except a wrongly optimistic tumblr saying “based on your likes!”#tumblr when did i ever show any interest in CoD in either game or fic form#anyway. just common courtesy i feel#not to mention a good little intro works more enticingly than a wall of text so you might draw more interest#but maybe that's just me#anne speaks

the funniest meltdown ive ever had was in college when i got so overstimulated that i could Not speak, including over text. one of my friends was trying to talk me through it but i was solely using emojis because they were easier than trying to come up with words so he started using primarily emojis as well just to make things feel balanced. this was not the Most effective strategy... until. he tried to ask me "you okay?" but the way he chose to do that was by sending "👉🏼👌🏼❓" and i was so shocked by suddenly being asked if i was dtf that i was like WHAT???? WHAT DID YOU JUST SAY TO ME?????????? and thus was verbal again
#yeehaw#1k#5k#10k#posts that got cursed. blasted. im making these tag updates after... 19 hours?#also i have been told it should say speech loss bc nonverbal specifically refers to the permanent state. did not know that!#unfortunately i fear it is so far past containment that even if i edited it now it would do very little. but noted for future reference#edit 2: nvm enough ppl have come to rb it from me directly that i changed the wording a bit. hopefully this makes sense#also. in case anyone is curious. though i doubt anyone who is commenting these things will check the original tags#1) my friend did not do this on purpose in any way. it was not intended to distract me or to hit on me. im a lesbian hes a gay man. cmon now#he felt very bad about it afterwards. i thought it was hilarious but it was very embarrassed and apologetic#2) “why didn't he use 🫵🏼?” didn't exist yet. “why didn't he use 🆗?” dunno! we'd been using a lot of hand emojis. 👌🏼 is an ok sign#like it makes sense. it was just a silly mixup. also No i did not invent 👉🏼👌🏼 as a gesture meaning sex. do you live under a rock#3) nonspeaking episodes are a recurring thing in my life and have been since i was born. this is not a quirky one-time thing#it is a pervasive issue that is very frustrating to both myself and the people i am trying to communicate with. in which trying to speak is#extremely distressing and causes very genuine anguish. this post is not me making light of it it's just a funny thing that happened once#it's no different than if i post about a funny thing that happened in conjunction w a physical disability. it's just me talking abt my life#i don't mind character tags tho. those can be entertaining. i don't know what any of you are talking about#Except the ppl who have said this is pego/ryu or wang/xian. those people i understand and respect#if you use it as a writing prompt that's fine but send it to me. i want to see it#aaaand i think that's it. everyday im tempted to turn off rbs on it. it hasn't even been a week

hey for everyone talking about jury nullification etc etc: it only works if you lie and say you dont know what it is. if youre chosen for jury duty and they ask you if you know what it is, you say no. here's an article going more in depth, and here's the cgp grey video about it.
like. just so we're clear, it's good to know about, but if you go into a courtroom and start talking about nullification, you could very well have voided your place on that jury. be smart about it 👍
#jury nullification#ceo shooting#united healthcare#and also like. can we all please be careful on the internet#'i want this person to die' <- not a crime#'i hope this person dies' <- not a crime#'i am going to kill this person' <- now youve made a threat that can be investigated#idk call me paranoid. i just want everybody to be safe. except ceos of insurance companies

I once had a landlord offhandedly mention that his mother had set this house on fire before. He and his wife lived on the first floor, and i rented the third.
Apparently his mom didn’t like his wife. So she set their house on fire. The house i was living in.
He assured me that everything was fine now and that this was years ago, just kinda laughed, smiled, and said ‘You know how moms are’
Yes. I know how moms are. I know how fucked up moms are as well. I have known many fucked up moms and fellow children of fucked up moms.
Attempted murder through arson is not typical mom behavior, even for a fucked up abusive mom
Oh, and his mother lived next door 🙃
#story time with sair#i might follow up with more#that was a wild living situation even for me#family owned#two neighboring houses of six units total#all of them one family/lived there decades#except the one unit rented out to me

Me, parking lot security: Do you have any ID on you today
Person I just found keying someone’s car: I’m sorry I’m autistic
Me: Cool, me too. So a driver’s license, regional ID, anything…?
Person, now crying: I can’t get in trouble I have an anxiety disorder can I just go I have really bad anxiety
Me: Yeah me too, I feel you. But you see the car’s owner will need information to file for insurance so again if I can get your name
Person: I literally have anxiety so bad I can’t do this
Me: Listen I’m not a cop, I can’t force you to stick around, but if you do wanna help with this and you’re not gonna run then eventually someone will need to know what your name is. Can you take a few deep breaths with me
Person: (crying harder) please I’m literally autistic
Me:
Me: So again I am also autistic

He's been hauled around by so many people and animals at this point in his life that he's starting to rate them by size and comfort level.
He's literally bent over backwards on a horse ridden by three other men here. He's having this thought in the privacy of his own mind while frowning at the sky, still shot full of lead bullets btw. Peak Law moment.
Episode 690 at 20:54 (the voice acting for this line is amazing)
#trafalgar law#one piece#just a few minutes earlier Luffy comes running ROARING into the scene with Law on his shoulder. like out of the fog. from a distance#as if he's been running and roaring for quite some time#when it's just them. Luffy wasn't even screaming AT anyone. just roaring while running when nobody is around to hear except Law#and Law is just dead silent. unmoving#and the thought of Luffy screaming for prolonged periods of time while Law is on his shoulder almost made me snort spaghetti out of my nose#I forgot how completely zoned out he is for a lot of this#ragdoll cat potato sack man lost in his own little world
