Anakin Skywalker the senator for Tatooine is such a fun concept I had to draw it, also featuring jedi Padme

*Zane walks into the Lodge*

Hammerlock: Ah, Vault Hunter! You're back! Did you happen to find Winny at all-

Zane: *buys ammo and reloads shotgun* Wainwright's haunted.

Hammerlock: Wh... What does that mea-

Zane: *walks back out the Lodge* Wainwright's haunted.

Concept: a non-violent walking sim set in the midst of a horribly bloody apocalypse; it’s non-violent because the player character is always just slightly late to the party and only ever witnesses the aftermath, never actually encountering anything that could possibly threaten them.

You just keep finding weapons, ammo, and health packs that you never have the opportunity to use

Alternatively, throw in some light puzzle-solving elements such that certain weapons are used, but never for their intended purpose.

[theyoungestwhateleydaughter-dea]

No, I kinda feel like the weapons never even being a gameplay element is a stronger… idk if I’d say statement, but it’d sure be a bolder choice. Adding puzzle elements that use the weapons almost feels like it betrays the sheer… -antinomianism, maybe- of the premise?

[prokopetz]

I think you could make an argument for either approach, provided the guns are never fired or otherwise used for any destructive purpose. Like, you use the scope of a sniper rifle in a light-manipulation puzzle of some sort, or grenades of various sizes in puzzlebook-style balance scale problems.

palpatine was like “I am all the sith” you mean the master you killed, maul who you betrayed, dooku who you betrayed, ventress who you asked dooku to betray, or vader who betrayed you

palpatine: I am all the sith

all the sith: no one likes you

the lesson of the trolley problem is “if you want to kill someone and have it not be your fault, tie them to some tracks where more people are tied on the other tracks where the trolley is already headed. It then becomes the fault of the person who pulls the lever. The train wasn’t heading your way when you tied the person to the tracks, after all.”

A corollary to this lesson is “The more people you want to kill, the more people you want to contrive to be threatened by uncontrollable trolleys so you can justify killing those you want to kill. Contact the city about hiring the much cheaper trolley-making firm you own, frame it as a saving for taxpayers. Save money by not maintaining breakpads, whistles, or signage by the side of the tracks.”

Jeff Bezos and Amazon are a fucking blight upon the working class. He got rich by treating rank and file employees like hot garbage toiling under dehumanizing, backbreaking conditions for shitty pay. When there are this many random strangers across various sectors/departments of a single company sharing similar horror stories, that can’t be dismissed as just a few disgruntled ex-employees. Grievances like these are why I quit using Amazon. They made my life easier at the expense of thousands of hardworking people being mistreated and disrespected behind closed doors. (thread)

[scretladyspider]

The craziest thing about all this to me is there are still people who will say that he’s worked hard for his money and so we should be happy that he’s going to be the first trillionaire. If you are one of these people... fuck you.

AU where Padme is a Jedi and Ahsoka is her padawan.

[wuhkie]

I’ll have the fic on your desk by Monday

[angelsaxis]

[angelsaxis]

The best part is the fact that Anakins not even like a tactful senator. He's super popular but he and Padme have the exact same negotiation styles as they do in the normal canon

Senator: *starts insulting someone Anakin loves*

Anakin: *pulls out a gun on the Senate floor* say it again

[wuhkie]

Ahsoka always gets this wolfish grin on her face whenever she and Padme are assigned to protect Anakin because sure, Padme occasionally gets into aggressive negotions but mostly is pretty calm. Anakin, though?

Padme: Really, Ahsoka, I don’t see why you’re so eager for a dull bodyguard assingment with Anak—uh, Senetor Skywalker.

Ahsoka: The last time we were supposed to have a “dull assignment” with Skywalker he called Grievous “dooku’s punk clanker bitch” and blew up half his fleet.

Padme: I’m aware. I’m the one who had to duel Grievous while you held Skywalker back.

Ahsoka: And it was dope.

I offer this hasty sketch to this god-tier au

[forthegothicheroine]

I was discussing that “Pennywise ends up in Derry, Ireland instead of Derry, Maine” post with my husband, and he was saying that the Derry Girls wouldn’t even set out to defeat Pennywise.  The “A” plot would be that Erin lost her mother’s necklace down the drain and they have to go into the sewers to get it, and the fact that there’s a killer clown down there that they have to fight is second to what Erin’s mother will do if they don’t find her necklace.
