disney store just unveiled the padmé collection for may the 4th and... well!

the ears are so ugly, im SORRY. and im so confused why everyone likes them because why are they wholly bedazzled? like if it was just the bow they'd be so cute

the rest is 10/10 though. i love the bag and the EARRINGS!!!

i just wish people wouldnt overly glaze disney for their mediocre merch decisions because then maybe we'd actually get decent merch that makes sense with the theming its after. i just hateee how they rhinestoned the entire ears 😭😭

i finished watching the clone wars for the first time this morning and WTFFFF i wasnt expecting that level of emotional turmoil 😭😭

[galactic-rhea]

I know Anakin's desilusions of grandiosity are the talk of the town, but something something Padmé dehumanization of herself as a result of so much survivor trauma and so many close death calls. She's the senator with the highest murder attempts on her, she gets assesination attempts weekly and brushes them off, and she keeps chasing for justice to the point of collition, she sees people dying around her all the time but she keeps on living and living, at some point she's flirting with death as much as Anakin does in the battlefield. And something something, Anakin, ironically, in his extreme trauma and fear of death taking the people he loves, being the only one to say "You're a person, and your name is Padmé, not queen nor senator, and you're as fragile as any other live being" Something something the irony that person that most adored her being also the one who saw her as a person Something something Anakin commiting atrocities not for a goddess, no for a politician no for royalty, for a person. Something something how contrarian it is, that Anakin sees himself as a weapon, and Padmé's extreme guilt becoming what seems like superiority.

And particularly here in this comic something something how easily Anakin can walk through that storm Padme has created, how easily he can enter into her headspace and she doesn't flinch, doesn't blink, she isn't even surprised because she expects him and he's the only one that knows and can reach her like this, they're just having a conversation, something something.

Something.

I swear this was the end of me, so idc if i'm rambling, this comic kept me up awake for more than one day, because the power would go out every single time i sat to work on it, damnit

i need to sleep asap, and eat, eating first probably

ijbol they ended up adding empanada, pepito, and sunny figurines to the qsmp shop but no chunsik

admittedly im late to seeing it but i havent been watching/keeping up bc i dont wanna support the project until the admins who were treated poorly say something if that makes sense idk lol

[shortnsnips]

Also, if it was a matter of the merch being created before sunny empanada & pepito, they wouldn't have the new Tallulah design (the new beanie) as that's a lot more of a recent change (around the same time Chunsik was added)

WAITTTT omfg i forgot about that! they definitely could've added sunny, empanada, pepito, and (potentially) chunsik then too! it kinda sucks that they didnt because i personally would've loved sunny and pepito )):

[shortnsnips]

pretty sure the merch was created before sunny, empanada, pepito, chunsik existed tbf

i could def see chunsik not being there but sunny, em, and pepito have been around for a few months now - they could've delayed the merch release to add them on + timed it out where the admins weren't treated unjustly imo 💀 but i see where ur coming from i didnt think abt it being created that long ago

[shortnsnips]

no hate to the artist/designer of the qsmp merch, i do think its a really cute idea but i genuinely don't know why ALL of the eggs weren't designed and made - like sunny, empanada, pepito, chunsik, and gegg. if i were to buy them, to which personally i can't see myself justifying it (broke college student things + they're definitely overpriced for how much it costs to make them, but ig its so they can actually pay their employees), i'd also want sunny too! idk i just don't get that choice to leave them out of the merch line lol

i also don't understand the hoodie design choice, the pairing of eggs make 0 sense to me and its kinda disappointing that it claims to be an original egg hoodie but then has pomme, richarlyson, and tallulah on it who aren't even one of the original eggs and could have easily been replaced with dapper, leo, and bobby/juanaflippa. i would've also loved to see a hoodie with eggs like pomme, richas, and dapper on it or alternatively sunny, empanada, and ramon but other than that (and again... the price...) it's a cute design, i just don't understand the choice behind it.

and also tbh i'd rather have egg plushies than figurines like shit maybe i'll learn how to sew and make one myself LOL

i also just think releasing egg merch is super bad timing with everything going on, definitely a good way to make the money to pay the admins but should've been done before the admins were leaving due to lack of communication or being unjustly let go from the project. like, even tho the admins don't own the eggs/create the designs, they create the character and meaning behind them and it feels scummy to "profit" (hopefully using the revenue to pay the admins) off of it right after everything that has been coming to light. idk! just my two cents!

[shortnsnips]

i love the qsmp - i think the concept was so genuinely sick and i do think it achieved its goal of bringing communities together through language barriers. it encouraged people to learn new languages they wouldn't have thought of prior and even introduced an entirely new way to play the game.

but if im being completely honest, i think it's reached its peak and i do not think the server should have reopened. whether thats indefinitely or up until the restructures are finalized, it should not have reopened as quickly as it did. telling us to have patience and that total restructures take time in the same breath where you reopen the server and announce events without having the problems fixed to add new creators feels gross to me. to me, it shows where the priorities lie and that is not with the fair compensation of the free fan labor that was exploited. (i always thought it was strange how heavily emphasized volunteer was)

there is a huge lack of accountability and inability to take constructive criticism, especially in that last stream, that really rubbed me the wrong way. im sure there's plenty of people hating just to hate, but all ive seen has been constructive criticism and lumping that in with hate will literally get us nowhere. the egg merch feels like very ill timing at an attempt to make the money to pay the employees but feels counter-productive when all it's done is piss people off. its just a mess

and i think what really confuses me the most is how hands-off he's been about his own project, knowing his name is attached but not being more involved to ensure stuff like this doesn't happen. im also confused as to why they wouldn't just keep the server closed until everything is fixed because in theory, they'd be saving more money to pay the workers by not paying to translate words and what not.

i dont know, seeing more and more admins come forwards and talk about their experiences and how they're leaving because they're being left completely in the dark just makes me sad for them and the way they were treated. i dont really have any hopes for the server going forwards, which sucks especially when they'd invite new creators when theres no internal structure because it's being completely rebuilt. i'm honestly really proud of the creators who aren't playing on the server because of this too. its a really good way at putting pressure for a change to be made without rushing said change and i wish other streamers would do the same

i do hope they can come up with a solution so the server can continue, i have no ill wishes for the server but if things keep up the way they are currently, i would not be surprised if it ended (and if not that, i would no longer support the server) 🤷‍♀️

[shortnsnips]

i like putting my thoughts on tweets i see on here bc its less scary so here's another one LOL

i've seen a lot of discourse over boycotting the qsmp because of the recent stuff with the volunteers/workers not getting paid and i think both yes and no!

a lot of people have been against it with the claim that "boycotting is counterproductive because then the server isn't making any money to pay the workers" but in actuality, and forgive me if im wrong, but wouldn't that ONLY matter if quackity is the one you are watching? and he doesn't even stream that much in the first place (not that he owes it to anyone). so whether or not you do or don't watch tubbo, pac, bagi, whoever would literally do nothing to affect the amount of money the qsmp is earning unless quackity takes a cut from the streamers streams? but i doubt that and i doubt the streamers he invited pay anything to play, too.

i think boycotting would definitely get the point of "hey, we aren't gonna watch until you compensate those you have [unknowingly] wronged!" obviously the reformation process is going to be slow but PERSONALLY i think fixing the issues before opening the server should have been the way to go especially if it's being rebuilt from the ground up and the server has already essentially been created to revolve not only around the ccs but the admins as well.

on the same token, those who have spoken out about their experiences have explicitly said to continue to support the project because even if there are individuals who aren't being fairly compensated, you're still supporting the time and effort they've put into making the server what it is!

just my thoughts on the whole thing. i still think the server should have remained closed longer especially if they were on track to closing down completely. obviously we don't know whats actually going on behind the scenes but hopefully everything is moving smoothly and there's more communication all around! i can't imagine being stuck in the dark about everything.

(i've always thought the way it was emphasized that the position was volunteer was a little strange because it DID feel like exploitation of fans for free labor but hopefully the reformation will get everything solved and people can get fairly compensated for their time and effort!!)

heres my ranking of eternal sunshine first listen!! i went in with low expectations because i can't stand yes, and? but it honestly ate so bad and this was so hard to do btw 😭

1. true story (THIS HURT TO PUT IT ABOVE ETERNAL DUNSJINE BUT ITS SO GOOD LIKE ear candy idk its literally even more so that girl)

2. eternal sunshine (transition brownie points, OH! IDEK WHAT PART THIS IS BUT IT ALL ATE omg the chorus is so good yea this is THAT girl i dont like the bridge as much but i will say the rest of the song is COLD)

3. supernatural (THE CHORUS IS SO CUTIEEEE yea this song is so cute the production quite literally gives supernatural idk! THE KEY CHANGE WAS SO COOL)

4. we can't be friends (I LOVE BUBBLEGUM POP this one is actually so good i almost put it 1 but i had to calm myself down i also like this one conceptually)

5. ordinary things (the way she says ordinary takes me OUT but this one was cute i like how the backing sounds like old timey record its cute! also the nonna feature is so cute actually she slayed for that AND THEN THE TRANSITION TO THE BEGINNING transition brownie points)

6. imperfect for you (i LOVE this song but that one part in the chorus w the funky melody turned me off of it a little bit im ngl but everything else about this song is actually like shakung crying falling to my kneess /pos)

7. bye (i like the chorus and prechorus also shes so real for this one OH THE BRIDGE KEY CHANGE ATE i also like how it kinda sounds like i wanna say 90s/00s bubblegum pop i EAT THAT UP)

8. i wish i hated you (☹️😢😞🫠 GIRL DID SHE SNIFFLE AND HER VOICE BREAK HELLO ARIANA WHO GAVE YOU THE RIGHT)

9. the boy is mine (it felt like there was a weird like tempo change but this song was still cute im just not as in love w it as the others)

10. i don't wanna break up again (i like it conceptually and i like the verses but idk if i like the chorus as MUCH like the lyrics eat but i dont vibe w the melody)

12. intro (very pretty 9th track update im sad i ranked this first bc it was so cute and somehow its so low now LOL)

13. saturn returns interlude (i think its cute but theres not much there other than that BUT THE TRANSITION IT PROVIDED ATE)

14. yes, and? (😬)

i love the songs that are super like 90s/00s bubblegum pop and i wish more artists would revisit that sort of sound! even true story gives me that sort of 90s/early 00s vibes its just too good but she basically delivered another skipless album! (if you ignore yes, and?)
