No Way Back (The Protomen Act III)

A short edit from the amv I made, since it seemed no one was too interested in the full version lol. Watch the full version here.

imagine how much more fucked up the history of the world would be if eating someone's brains reliably conferred on you their memory and knowledge

dogs love using their horizontal nature to stand in front of you

[thisauthorisscreaming]

Fun fact: I was in a house with my boss and her son with whom I was about to go on a date (long story) and they have Great Pyrenees. BIG dog. One of them figures out right quick that I'm a sucker and keeps standing in front of me, using his Large Horizontal Nature to block the door. The guy and my boss start tugging him away, chastising him, and I say, "No, no - watch this."

I slowly rotate. The dog, anticipating forward motion, walks around to block me. I step backwards through the door and the dog is left standing, shocked at my escape. They (dog owners) had apparently never thought of that.

Defy the horizontal nature. Rotate.

This is the 85 year old creator of Roger Rabbit:

I decided to do something a little bit insane. I sat down and typed every word spoken in revenge of the Sith so I could then hand write every word to create this scene redraw. I am very pleased with the final result I’m not gonna lie.

[eldritchdemigodskywalkers]

a fun question for all the fic-writers out there, since we couldn't come to a consensus about this eight months ago:

is anakin skywalker, local force demigod, immune to force-suppressants?

YES: force-suppressants do not work on him at all

NO: they do actually work on him effectively (cue the whump*)

KIND OF: they weaken him but aren't completely effective

My desktop wallpaper cycles between these two images so every 10 minutes I am overwhelmed by the loss of my horse or overcome by the fear of its return.

torn between 'disney never mentions padme :(' and 'thank fuck disney never mentions padme they would mess her up' and my conclusion is: they should let lego write a padme story, I trust lego and only lego with good padme characterisation

me as a teenager: man it sucks to have no privacy or autonomy but i guess its for a good reason. when i turn 18 i will realise how young i was and understand why they did all that.

me as an adult: teenagers are an oppressed class, their abuse is normalised and systemic and they need to start killing people

I overheard a woman at my job say "Your whole personality revolves around what you hate instead of what you love and thats an awful way to live." to the resident vocal Maga in the breakroom.

He was stunned into silence for at least 60 seconds so that was nice.

Let's say I really wanted to reduce the number of children who die in car accidents. Car accidents are really bad, right? Nobody disagrees about that. And it would be much better for both the environment and the kids' health if they spent more time walking, or taking the bus. Perfectly reasonable. More cars off the road, safer roads, fewer kids getting hurt, healthier kids. A win-win!

Therefore, let's ban children from traveling by car and require all cars to have a scanner on the door that scans the government ID of everyone who gets in the car to make sure no kids are in there. After all, kids get hurt in car accidents all the time! We need to ban this right away!

I don't understand the need from Anakin fans need to be anti-ObiWan and to dig and find every possible wrong thing Obi Wan has ever done

WHATT? guys i am not even anti-obi. 😭 i literally saw someone else's post mentioning the fact that obi disrespects jar jar. i just finished tpm novel last week so i wanted to share the fact that he didn't only disrespect him, but couldn't stand jar jar, and saw him as a lesser being, not worth saving, so much that he'd rather leave him to die than drag him along. this isn't me sharing this from a personal opinion stand point, but what is literally written in the book. the novel makes clear how obi feels, and thinks of jar jar, and why. i am just sharing about the books i'm reading. i recently learned it myself. if you still don't believe me, i seriously urge you to read tpm novelization. it makes clear how obi felt towards jar jar even more blatantly clear than i did. extensively too. there's no point of perspective. it's like– what the book tells you. i wasn't trying to make some generalized personal dunk on obi. but honestly even if i was, it's right there, in the original media. has nothing to do with anakin either.

I just started reading TPM and I was like oh! I finally appreciate Jar Jar and his entire role in the story! That’s the point of Jar Jar is to show the difference between Qui-Gon (thinks all beings have intrinsic value even if we don’t their purpose in life) and Obi-Wan (doesn’t think it’s worth it to save Jar Jar’s life because it’s not mandated by the council or worth the effort because there’s no reward for the Jedi). Like that’s literally the point! Jar Jar is useless on PURPOSE! To showcase that it’s worth saving every one. And then later little Ani also sticks his neck out to save Jar Jar, even though it could cause problems for Anakin and there’s no hope for any reward. This shows that Anakin is like Qui-Gon and believes in helping others simply because it’s the right thing to do.

I’m not bashing Obi-Wan but the whole point is that Obi-Wan believes in the Jedi Code above all else. And the Jedi are so far removed from actually helping people that they don’t pay attention to the average person who doesn’t do anything important in the galaxy. It’s why Qui-Gon would rather be in the field helping than sit in his ivory tower meditating on things that don’t do anyone in the real world any good.
