Star Wars + text messages, featuring Rose and Rey

[fiddleabout]

#one of my gleeful fave headcanons about rey is that she has 100% had to hide a body at some point#and has killed multiple people on jakku#purely as a matter-of-fact part of survival#like if someone comes at you they’re not holding back so to survive you HAVE to be last man standing every time that happens#like sure she’s a ray of sunshine but also: her Feral reading is off the charts#off. the. charts.#she’ll kick your ass she’ll kick teedo’s ass she’ll kick her own ass she’s 100% ready#to murder at the merest hint of self-defence at all times#so when poe dispatches a stormtrooper scout someplace and is like ‘quick we should hide him in the sand’#so they dont get caught or draw attention#and she’s just like ‘actually dry sand will keep a body pretty stable so if you wanna get rid of it-#-you need to find something to eat the remains’#and poe rose and finn are like ‘……….what’#and she’s like ‘what’

[kyraneko]

My big THING regarding Rey is that she’s way too well-adjusted in the movies for someone who has been basically feral since childhood. Just “I didn’t know there was so much green” and that’s it. She doesn’t work 18-hour days and clear the entire starship maintenance’s repair backlog before anybody tells her she doesn’t have to accomplish that much. She doesn’t start a fight in the cafeteria and beat some dude half to death for throwing away uneaten food. She doesn’t cut herself open on an unfamiliar power tool, tie off the wound, continue working, and ask “what’s that?” when someone asks what she’s doing out of the medbay.

Rey would totally have killed a few people—but I bet she’d be vaguely surprised to learn that body disposal is expected and useful out here and a necessary part of not getting caught. I suspect Jakku was kind of a slight murderworld where finding someone dead meant a quick loot before you left it out because hiding bodies takes energy and anybody could have killed them and your best bet was to be viewed as Scavenger #2. And Poe’s gotta be like, no, if they see a dead First Order goon they’re gonna realize something’s up, out here when we kill someone, we hide them in the storage closet or trash compactor so nobody knows they’re dead.

FTH Fan Crafts Bazaar

There are a few reasons physical crafts aren’t a good fit for the main auction, but we know that many people would love to use their craftiness to support our organizations. So this year we’ve formalized our usual policy of signal-boosting crafters into the Fan Crafts Bazaar!

How it works:

Fan crafters set up their own “stalls” on the site of their choice. They can have set prices or use an auction format, and their crafts can be either ready-made or made-to-order. Our main requirement is that they handle money the same way we do for the FTH auction - you send your donation to the organization in question, and then send them proof of donation (usually a screenshot of a receipt), and they send you your item. We will add information about all the stalls to this post, where you can browse all the offerings! Beyond that, the FTH mods will not be involved in these transactions. Please do not contact us about your fan craft items.

On to the fan craft stalls!

In that adhd post you said that meds helped w/ your cravings, but did they specifically curb sugar cravings? Cause I know a lot of adhd meds suppress appetite entirely.

Hi anon! That’s a good question. My meds did specifically curb my sugar cravings and nothing else. Every health professional I met on the way warned me about appetite loss and still check my weight regularly. For me, it hasn’t suppressed my appetite so much as changed my appetite schedule. Eating with ADHD, pre-med:

My goal: do my best to eat 3 meals a day.Reality: Forget meals because What Is Time / hyperfocus. Almost never feel hungry, because my brain is feeling something else. Except for chocolate or sugar. Eat chocolate anytime, every time, any where. Solution: Always have 4 chocolate bars + candy on hand. Also, keep to an extremely fixed eating schedules and routines. If routine is disturbed, whole meal is skipped or the whole schedule needs to be redone on the fly and my mood for the day is highly irritable.Eating with ADHD, with my meds:My goal: eat 3 meals a day.Reality: eat 3 meals a day, and get moderate hungry at regular interval through the day as well.Solution: keep in-between-meals snacks on hand (mostly fruits*). Sometimes, snacking makes me less hungry for the meals, so they’re a bit smaller portions, but nothing else changed.I’ve neither gained nor lost any weight. I am exactly the weight I was before starting, about a year ago. Mostly, I just gained a new snack habit. I definitively eat a lot more often, and also a lot more fruits and a lot less sugar/chocolate. 

*My hand will reach for a chocolate bar, and my brain will do that meme face of “naaah” and deviate my hand to a fruit. It was spooky at first, how clear and big a change that was. I wonder if neurotypicals feel this way all the time and if that’s why it’s so easy for them to always recommend to eat more fruits as if it’ll cure all of the world’s ailments and was such an easy thing to do? My brain didn’t WANT fruits, it wanted sugars and salt. And an ADHD brain that doesn’t want something is a very tiredsome foe to defeat every single day. But now my brain just...wants fruits. Brains are the strangest squishy thought pillows.

so quite a lot of people expressed interest in a guide to lion dance! and since the lunar new year is coming up in a couple weeks, which means everyone’s exposure to lions is probably going to increase, i figured i’d go ahead and make it! right click + open in new tab to fullview, etc etc, i hope it’s helpful, although if you only take one thing away from this powerpoint, it’s this: lions are not dragons

disclaimer: i learned fut san style at an american university, and the senior members of the troupe were almost all from hong kong and taiwan, so most of my knowledge is drawn from what they taught me. lion dance varies widely depending on the style and the country of origin, and many schools do things differently! this is just an attempt to establish a baseline and give you a really basic intro to one of my favorite art forms. :)

Who wouldn’t aspire to be a stylishly dressed Were-bear with a beautiful nude woman on their back providing musical accompaniment as you drive unwanted trespassers from the steps of your stately residence?

Seems like a pretty sweet deal to me.

Belle: Beast, I have to go back to my father, your magic mirror showed he was sick.

Beast: Really? Let me see…. Huh, actually it look like some guy called Gaston is going to have him committed.

Belle: What now? *Grabs mirror*

Beast: you know that guy? he seems like a douche.

Belle: Beast…. Honey…. you wanna get out of the house for a few hours?

Beast: Against my better judgement, I’m gonna say yes.

*Later*

Belle: FLEE MORTALS, I AM ARTEMIS, GODDESS OF THE WILD HUNT, AND I HAVE COME FOR YOU.

Beast: HEY NOT THAT I’M NOT HAVING FUN BUT WHY ARE YOU NAKED?

Belle: ARTEMIS, GODDESS OF THE WILD HUNT DOES NOT REQUIRE CLOTHES.

Beast: I HAVE NEVER SEEN THIS SIDE OF YOU BEFORE AND I’M NOT GONNA LIE I KIND OF DIG IT.

Belle: YEAH I’M HAVING FUN TOO. HEY ITS LEFOU, GASTON’S LITTLE CHEERLEADER. GET HIM!

Beast: YES MA’AM!

Fairy: *Watching in the distance*: You know I was gonna turn him back, but it looks like they’re having fun so I’ll come back tomorrow.

miles “who’s morales” morales’s biggest weakness is the cover story

[disregardcanon]

peter, lying out of his ass: i was, uh, married to his uncle aaron. he just never let you know

[fallenangelvictorious]

Jefferson, later: Do you think Aaron never told us because Peter’s…

Rio: …Tall

Jefferson: I didn’t think Aaron liked … Tall people.

[teapotsahoy]

Jefferson: “But listen: Aaron might have married a white boy just to annoy me, specifically. It’s a thing he would do!”

Rio: “I can’t hear you. I’m asleep.  I have a shift in four hours.”

[dracophile]

I really wish there was a way Uncle Aaron lived and came back to meet his “husband” at some point now.

Aaron: …Miles…I love you, and I am proud of you…but you are somehow the smartest and dumbest boy I have ever known.

Miles: Says the man who used his big brain to become a criminal when he could’ve been a black Tony Stark with that gear he made. And thought working for the Kingpin, who everyone knows will throw his minions away like tissues, was a good idea!

Peter: He makes a good point, babe, you did kind of mess up first–

Aaron: Call me babe again and see what happens. I’ll whoop you with a collapsed lung.

[christchex]

All I see is “fake marriage au, but it’s also enemies to lovers”

[cogitaeworks]

Are you guys making me ship Uncle Aaron and Uncle Peter B Parker now

[unfortunatelyevent]

I did not expected this post to go there the first time I saw it

[theotheristhedoctor]

Ok but there are parallel universes right?

so what if Aaron from another universe comes through, and actually did turn his life around to be a hero? Now he’s come to see the family, make amends for the “missing” Aarons?

But he doesn’t want to give away the fact he’s from a Parallel Universe, so when someone mentions his husband he just rolls with it?

and now he’s at a table with a Miles who is desperately trying not to laugh, a furious half-aroused Peter B Parker, a really confused Jefferson, and a turkey leg in either hand, trying to come up with a good romantic story in a world where all their pop culture references are wrong.

this got even better!

Y’all I just learned that unusually high sugar and carb cravings are a symptom of dopamine deficiency

If you’re adhd and experience a deep and all-encompassing urge to eat cake at least five times a day boy do I have news for you

[parad0xymoron]

Oh yeah, this is a hell of a thing. Years before my diagnosis I used to snack hardcore on chocolates and particularly candy whenever I was writing and insisted it ‘helped me think’. Turns out that yup, that was my ADHD brain demanding sugar for the dopamine machine to help me pay attention.

(These days I just keep a bottle of high-glucose sports drink handy and slowly sip my way through it when I need to focus instead of slamming back whole packets of Nerds.)

[soistalune]

Can confirm via lived experience. I’m known for my sweet tooth and consuming a LOT of sugar daily, which never seemed to affect my ‘energy’ levels the way people say kids get hyperactive on sugar. It in fact simply helped me be steadier. 

Since I started taking ADHD medication, my cravings for sweet snacks have gotten down to almost zero, except if I need to make a specifically mentally challenging task. Wish I knew this before I only sought diagnosis past 30 years old...

[mulletlove-deactivated20200811]

the idea that humans are a garbage species is so obnoxious no one talks about the peaceful parts of history and prehistory because they aren’t as exciting as us killing each other but um homo sapiens have been doing awesome things all over for a long time….we survived the fucking ice age…we made it through the sinai desert….we shared the savana with big cats before we ever made a weapon, we wove baskets from literal plants and halved blades from flint to handles we made, carved harpoons from bone and fought megafauna for our loved ones, cooked food and took care of the elderly and buried our dead, painted pictures and shared stories, built homes from clay and mud and straw, made instruments so we could dance and sing…it is so easy to focus on the negative and i get it ok we are in the middle of a mass extinction event that specific humans are at fault for but listen: they don’t want you to remember it hasn’t always been like this…we were and are so much more than evil

Had to include this tag by @elodieunderglass: “#we were born of risen apes not fallen angels”

[elodieunderglass]

Oh I’m glad you like that, it’s a Robert Ardrey quote from African Genesis (1961) that has resonated with me for a long time:

“But we were born of risen apes, not fallen angels, and the apes were armed killers besides. And so what shall we wonder at? Our murders and massacres and missiles, and our irreconcilable regiments? Or our treaties whatever they may be worth; our symphonies however seldom they may be played; our peaceful acres, however frequently they may be converted into battlefields; our dreams however rarely they may be accomplished. The miracle of man is not how far he has sunk but how magnificently he has risen. We are known among the stars by our poems, not our corpses.”

Terry Pratchett paraphrased it notably in Hogfather, but I like the original quote rather better. We’re a complicated species, but we are known among the stars by our poems.

A few people have tried to “well actually” in my activity, by pointing out that early humans were aggressive animals, and it’s like. well. what an absolutely novel viewpoint. perhaps you could in fact fold that into OP’s points and read it again, looking for their point this time.
