can't believe i'll get to watch the first episode in cinema aaahh
one of the biggest cinema chains i my country will be screening it on just one location... which happens to be in the city where i sublet
when i tried to book last week though all seats had already been booked. to be fair i was late, mainly bc i didn't get to it bc of study stress
but then this morning i was like i might as well take another look, and some seats had become available again! which is super nice of those people who probably wouldn't be able to make it to cancel their booking, especially since it's a free (!) event
so so excited!! i'll get to watch some Andor in cinema!!

that's the same wall as in the bedroom. Cassian is smirking at Syril in the bedroom?!!
should I write Syril/Cassian "There was only one bed" scene on my S2 bingo card...?
this is an extremely small moment in the show but I love how the retro space aesthetics of star wars are incorporated into the narrative. like these big clunky consoles are not just part of the set design, the technical limitations of these machines means that the people operating them don’t have access to information instantaneously, and moreover, the act of accessing information from these large imperial databases is placed in a broader context of imperial aggression. over-patrolling routes where they think they’ll catch rebels means that lots of ships are doing this at the same time, which means a huge increase in database queries, which means there’s a strain on their systems. like this show keeps tethering the might of the empire to the material components that make it up. and these points of weakness paradoxically make the empire feel that much more terrifying. you can see it straining against its constraints every time it tries to extend itself
also PSA, this was basically me the last 1.5 years, just going around in circles
will be taking a short break from tumblr, some personal thoughts below ^-^
i'm making some changes though; moved (though still unpacking and sleeping on the couch) back in with my mom and bro, got a job for the weekends as a waitress at the same cafe my bro works at (there will be a trial period of a month, but I have good hopes since I already helped clean up after an event yesterday night, and while I was exhausted I also just really need the money), I'm going to university 4 days a week to study (and also to not have to be around my fam and in the small flat too much)
...and I'll be taking a break from tumblr (and social media in general, but tumblr is really the only platform I'm dedicated to, reddit and insta is just doomscrolling)
I'm mainly writing this post as a reminder to myself to allow me some distance, since I have made my tumblr experience quite a bit of a burden through the many different themed accounts, side blogs, and other commitments like things I wanted to track... but I'll be quite busy the next few months, and I think it will actually be good for myself to keep me busy with studying and working and spending less time with myseld and my thoughts.
I really want to re-commit to my studies, and also deal with my doomscrolling, which I think will be most effective if I just cut down on internet time in general
I want to keep believing there's good in the future for me, even after an increased decline in my mental health over the last +/- 16 months, especially after having received news less than 2 weeks ago that yet again the waittime for my clinical assessment has been moved
I have an idea for the future for myself, the main elements being having my own place and having financial safety, and I want to believe it's possible to achieve that peace <3
I'm finally taking concrete steps again towards this future, towards peace and safety
