Tumblr Sexyman Contest 2026 Round 1 Part 64
Agent Stone (Sonic the Hedgehog)
Jareth the Goblin King (Labyrinth)
How is Jareth not winning soundly? How is it this close? This is The Goblin King! The Goblin King!
Tumblr, you do know that danced with muppets and then lost to a 14 year old girl while saying, “Just fear me. Love me. Do as I say, and I will be your slave.” And the pants. His pants are in a museum. This is the oldest I have ever felt.
Anyone else think the reason ds9 deeply resonates with Queer people is because, at its Heart, its about a third space created but a group of patriotic people fundamentally alienated from their own people. Like obviously garak and quark but consider how were told in the first episode that Kira has been sent there to get her "out of the way" of the civilian government, how the things shes needed to do to both survive and secure their freedom seem deeply uncomfortable to all the civilian leaders. Dax considering both Joran and her eagerness towards reassociation make her basically a non entity on Trill. Bashir takes a while but the augment reveal puts him firmly in this Category. Obriens difficulty with his ptsd and moving passed personal préjudices puts him at odds with a lot of federation ideals. Siskos deep trauma around the loss of his wife and inability to move pass this, makes him very inconvenient to a federation desperate to pass itself off as a Utopia. He then becomes more and more unacceptable as he leans further into his role as in emissary, with the federation seemingly very uncomfortable with this religious expression. Jesus, Worf begins his tenure by getting himself exiled from klingon space.
Like idk, I dont think its all that shocking a Bunch of Queer people most liked the show about having a complicated relationship with your culture and never being allowed to go home.
I feel like the big thing people get wrong when they think of Bakusquad and Dekusquad dynamic is that they think Bakusquad are the crazy ones, not the other way around.
This honestly is so funny to me because in cannon Iida has tried to commit murder, with Todoroki and Deku only kind of trying to stop him. Not even mentioning Ochakos (and Tsu’s!!) relationship with confirmed villain Toga. Meanwhile Bakugo goes to bed at 9 every night.
Like when I imagine their groups hanging out it’s like “omg let’s do something crazy!!”
For Bakusquad that’s making cookies at 11pm, or dying their hair at 9:30 on a school night.
For Dekusquad? That’s keying and spray painting all over Endeavours car. Then accidentally participating in an underground fight club. (They won obviously) Or going out to some random field at 3 in the morning to help Hatsume test out some insane machine she just made, knocking over a water tower and fleeing the scene.
It’s just funny how people always think it’s the opposite, when it’s really not. Like the Dekusquad look innocent and act like they’re the normal ones, but in reality they are all one step away from getting arrested every single time they go out. While bakusquad act crazy and rowdy, the craziest thing their doing is getting slushys at 7/11 and overflowing the cup more then they should.
I like to imagine whenever bakugo and Deku hangout they both will talk about the crazy stuff they did, and not elaborate, leaving them both thinking the other is as ‘unhinged’.
(Bakugo is convinced he’s the daredevil between them)
truly some people have no genre savviness whatsoever. A girl came back from the dead the other day and fresh out of the grave she laughed and laughed and lay down on the grass nearby to watch the sky, dirt still under her nails. I asked her if she’s sad about anything and she asked me why she should be. I asked her if she’s perhaps worried she’s a shadow of who she used to be and she said that if she is a shadow she is a joyous one, and anyway whoever she was she is her, now, and that’s enough. I inquired about revenge, about unfinished business, about what had filled her with the incessant need to claw her way out from beneath but she just said she’s here to live. I told her about ghosts, about zombies, tried to explain to her how her options lie between horror and tragedy but she just said if those are the stories meant for her then she’ll make another one. I said “isn’t it terribly lonely how in your triumph over death nobody was here to greet you?” and she just looked at me funny and said “what do you mean? The whole world was here, waiting”. Some people, I tell you.

I’ll rb with the details, but can we just appreciate my girl for a sec?
I think it's fair to say that Andor, despite having no Jedi in the show, makes the greatest argument as to why the Galaxy needs the Jedi! I mean, look what happened to Bix!
See, that's not really how I take it. Andor is hardly the first piece of media to show the Empire being completely awful and showcasing that they're a force that needs to be stopped. The first piece of media to do that was A New Hope when it literally showed them massacring an entire ship, burning down the Lars home, torturing Leia, and then blowing up an entire planet.
The message that Andor is trying to send is much more about COMMUNITY and solidarity and commitment to a cause greater than yourself as being the things that will truly save you from oppression.
The way I connect it to the Jedi is that THIS IS WHAT KILLED THEM. People DIDN'T have a sense of community and solidarity and commitment to something greater than themselves. They RELIED on the Jedi to solve all of their problems and if anything bad happened to them at all, then it was the Jedi's fault for not stopping it somehow, despite all of the many many reasons why the Jedi logistically could not stop every single ill in the galaxy.
Things like what happened to Bix were likely happening every day even during the Jedi's hey day. Plenty of planets likely had corrupt officials in their local governments, and obviously plenty of normal people are just bad people who have no issue with hurting others for their own gain or pleasure. The Jedi cannot and should not be expected to somehow be able to keep all of it from happening. The Jedi RELIED on regular people being willing to stand up to corruption and oppression and injustice themselves. The Jedi were intended to be an INSPIRATION to others to fight back against their own darkness and the darkness around them, not the end all and be all of the solution to darkness.
And THAT'S what allows the Empire to fall eventually. The Jedi were gone, so people finally had to stand up to darkness on their own. There was no one left to hide behind and shield them from the consequences of their own cowardice. And not only do they stand up, but they ultimately win because we see them standing BESIDE THE JEDI. In Rebels, it's all of the regular people in the Rebellion working with both Kanan and Ezra that takes down Thrawn and saves Lothal. In the Original Trilogy, it's Luke using the Force and working alongside the other Rebel pilots that destroys the first Death Star and saves the Rebellion from total destruction.
What's interesting to me about the situation on Mina-Rau is that we see the community around them get scared and uncertain, same as we did on Ferrix, and we aren't entirely certain how the shop owner is going to react when the stormtroopers finally show up, but instead of falling prey to his own fears and selfishness the way Timm did last season, he actually STANDS UP and helps Brasso and Bix and Wil as much as he can. He gets them a way to escape, he refuses to sell them out, despite whatever he may or may not feel about them as undocumented immigrants. And it's not enough, obviously, it doesn't save Brasso or Bix, but it's still important that he DID make that choice to help them when he didn't have to and it put himself and his own family at risk to do it.
And that's what's important here. It's not a message that this is why the galaxy needs the Jedi, but a message that this is why it's important to continue to stand up for each other, to protect the people in your community, regardless of how you might feel about their choices or their politics personally. Maybe it won't save everyone, but that doesn't make it less worth doing. It's important for everyone, even regular people, to ACT like the Jedi, to have that compassion towards others, because THAT'S what's going to save us in the end, THAT'S what's going to defeat the darkness.
Good point. Still….
What I love about Andor is that it continues to get across Jedi VALUES and philosophies and beliefs without there needing to even be any Jedi IN IT. And that's what makes Andor feel like Star Wars to me. That's what lets me know these creators understand Star Wars and have taken the time to really look into what Star Wars is ACTUALLY about beyond its visuals and its action scenes. It's about hope, it's about people standing up to darkness, it's about people standing up TOGETHER.
And that's always what the Jedi have been ABOUT. There's so many messages in Andor about learning to let go of attachments and stand up for each other and do the kind selfless thing even when it seems hard, especially when it seems hard. And it's at least half of what makes Andor feel so good to me, why I love it so much. Because it's not even just that these are Jedi VALUES, but that the Jedi values are the core of Star Wars and always have been and we've been losing that in a lot of later media that's come out.
Maybe that's what you're feeling, that the show and its narrative really emphasize all of the things that the Jedi stand for. But for me, the whole point is that these things were never intended to be ONLY for the Jedi. Controlling your emotions is important for everyone to learn, compassion is important for everyone to have, so on and so forth. And because it's a message and a philosophy being sent through space wizards with laser swords, I think sometimes that message has gotten a little lost. But there's no magic to hide behind in Andor. They have to learn the same lessons but without the Jedi around to help them do it.
It's not "this is why we need the Jedi" (because the Jedi cannot be everywhere and fix everything no matter how much they want to) so much as "This is what the Jedi had always stood for, this is what the Jedi were trying to help teach the galaxy, this is what the galaxy lost when it turned on the Jedi and what it's only just starting to get back now that the Jedi are gone." It's also, "This is why more people should act like the Jedi because they cannot be everywhere and fix everything, but the more people act like Jedi, the less necessary they will be." The Jedi are only necessary because everyone refuses to act like them and instead hide behind them and then blame the Jedi when things go wrong. And what we see in Andor and Rogue One and the OT and Rebels is that people in the galaxy had to finally learn to STAND UP once the Jedi were no longer there to hide behind or blame. It's "The Jedi were right, and this is why."
I wish I could agree more but... Relied on the jedi? Come on guys... There were some thousands of them. Even if they had a million members at their peak, how would people rely on them for everything?
It's a GALAXY. "What happened to Bix" happened to billions of people all the time, under the republic or empire.
Jedi weren't local cops. They weren't granularly hounding corruption and bad actors.
I feel like the show really doesn't make statements about the fate of space monks now gone for decades. If anything, Andor proves the jedi weren't necessary to build a true, worthy rebellion, and Luke and Vader will become instrumental, but the real fight, the large scale military victory, THAT is brought by the small people sacrificing their lives without any special powers to help.
someone from 1997 wished me good luck. it’s like someone from so many years back knows your struggles and i just, i think i’m gonna cry
reblogging for luck from friend in 1997
Damn that was a good year. Or maybe it was just that I was 22 and a senior in college. (Telling all the things that weren’t great about it for me personally to fuck off.) I think I mostly just miss my friends.
I hate that when you’re stressed enough your body just starts falling apart. I think it should realize you’re already stressed and don’t need that and start functioning better actually
I just saw a post where someone said that they headcanon that Izuku and All Might both lost a piece of their soul when they lost One For All. That take is pretty ableist actually. And hurtful.
More likely than not that the poster didn’t mean it that way. And ableism is really sneaky. So I’m not even screenshotting it let alone reblogging it. Do not go after that person! I just want to put it out there how takes like that read and feel for people to think over. Really not looking to argue about this.
And it’s fine with me if you didn’t like the ending of Izuku’s storyline, not telling anyone they have to!
But being quirkless is akin to a disability in many ways in the MHA universe. Not to mention All Might and to a lesser extent Izuku (and a LOT of other characters) are actually disabled by their hero work. Izuku doesn’t know the suit is coming. Sure he might have been able to work as a hero with other support items, many quirks only add very specific, not always useful, abilities. And I think it’s also very okay to be upset that we didn’t get that story! That could have been a good disability story even. But that’s not the story we got.
We got a different disability story that is also really good. The question of how do you move on and adapt after acquiring a disability that prevents you from perusing your dream / goals / plan is a really big and really hard one. There are not always adaptations available. Available adaptations might change what sounds like the same thing on paper into something significantly different in practice. Watching Toshinori come to terms with what his life was like and how his relationships changed after losing OFA and becoming pretty significantly disabled beyond that was really moving and meaningful for me as a person who acquired an energy limiting disability in middle age that has stopped me from working. It’s what really made me a fan actually (started watching it casually with my kid).
Izuku, following after All Might, finding a new, deeply meaningful way to continue to contribute, challenge himself, grow, and still stay part of hero society is inspiring and a deeply meaningful disability story. He didn’t give up. He didn’t stay stagnant. 
And it does end up also being a story about adaptive technology as well. He does use the suit. It is left open ended how much, so you are free to imagine what his future beyond canon looks like. But he does end up as number four in that Eri one shot, so that’s pretty significant even if it’s unfortunately not in the main body of work.
But again, it is a very meaningful story taken as a disability story. You don’t have to like that writing choice to respect the disability aspect, like I said there are other respectful stories to tell. But saying it makes it seem like Izuku and Toshinori *lost pieces of their souls* is very hurtful to disabled folks, and disrespectful to teachers too. [edit to add: the post I’m referring to did say being a teacher was good, I missed that at first]
I’m just asking folks to think it over from this perspective. And I’m not really built for online arguments so I’m probably going to bow out of any discussion. Be kind to one another!
hera locking the door to kanan's cabin on the ghost. she'd initially left it unlocked for ezra, but after he's gone too, she can't bring herself to go in there and she doesn't want anyone else in there either. weeks, months go by. she's pregnant and they're still fighting a war and she's a general so she has responsibilities and sometimes it's easy to ignore her grief. it's easy to not feel tempted every time she walks past his old room.
but eventually there comes the day when she thinks she can handle it, and she unlocks the door and everything is as he left it. neat, sparse. (half his clothes are in her cabin, and those drawers have also stayed firmly locked). the bed is mostly made, but he missed tucking in one corner of the sheets. there's the mural of the lothal jedi temple he let sabine paint. the broken remains of his jedi holocron she knows are resting in the top drawer of his dresser. one of her shirts is on the floor by the bed. above all, it still smells like him. it's grown fainter, but the scent lingers. and it's all these little bits of him, still here, just as he left it, that bring all of her grief flooding forth. and she sinks to the floor and cries and cries in a way she hasn't allowed herself to do yet.
she wraps herself up in one of his sweaters and eventually cries herself to sleep on his bed. zeb finds her there later, and he pulls a blanket over her and lets her sleep (because he knows she hasn't been sleeping well). and then he sits down on the floor by the bed so he can watch over her, and so he, too, can feel kanan's presence again in this room
Saw a fire, stopped his car, got out and Madonna'd the fuck out of those flames

A platonic relationship that is actually very meaningful to me specifically as platonic vs the healthiest, most loving, most supportive canon romantic relationship in all of Star Wars. Hmm.
What am I supposed to do now? Go to sleep? It’s only three hours past my bedtime.
