I don't usually watch videos but when I saw the combined tags of "Feliz navidad" and "apple bottom jeans," well...

It was worth it.

I need this on spotify stat

ilhoonftw

doesn't it piss you off corporations act like you were born to see ads. why it's so bad for trying to escape them??? the way it's okay for websites to make ads sooo annoying you feel like you have no choice but buy premium. and even then you can't escape ad reads. i don't want to waste hours of my life skipping ads. finding the x button. or being woken by an ad that pops at the end of 3 hours long white noise video. using spotify without premium is a nightmare. i hate how ads are everywhere and somehow it's normal to say 'if you don't want to see ads on youtube and use adblock then you're stealing from them!' what. i'm gonna install adblock on every computer elders in my family use as a preventive measure bc too many websites put ads in between news articles!!!

Reblogging this too for folks with anxiety like myself who feel bad when they say they’re too busy but they don’t have every second accounted for doing something so they feel almost like they’re lying. Self-care goes on your schedule too, lovelies.

Okay. Sad headcanon time.

We know that Obi-wan, despite his avowed dislike of blasters, is a damn good shot, as evidenced by his antics on Mandalore and in the Box as Rako Hardeen.

But! By the time we reach the Utapau Arc, he steadfastly refuses to even pick one up. (Although, he instructs Anakin to “blast anything that comes through that door,” which is a fascinating order as they are dealing with sentients, not droids, and Obi-wan’s enabling of Anakin/living vicariously through Anakin’s violence in these later episodes is something to be deconstructed at another time.)

Leading to the iconic line from RotS after he is left with no choice but to kill Grievous with a blaster after losing his lightsaber.

So what changed? Why the vehement aversion to the weapon we see in Crystal Crisis? Why is a blaster suddenly uncivilized and clumsy?

Maybe because this was the last time Obi-wan used a blaster before RotS.

Obi-wan had no other weapon on him during this chase scene, as he left his lightsaber on board the Twilight. Don’t tell me Obi-wan didn’t run this chain of events over again and again in his mind, how if only he had had his lightsaber he might have been able to defend Satine better, that maybe the Twilight wouldn’t have been shot down, that maybe Satine wouldn’t have been gutted before his very eyes by his mortal enemy.

And so, yes, blasters are clumsy and uncivilized to Obi-wan. Of course, he despises using one now. Because every time he picks one up after the events of “The Lawless,” he can only think of how that weapon - how he - failed Satine.

Worried?

Are you worried?

Well, you should be. If you’re not worried, then you’re not paying attention. Because there’s no end of things to be worried about.

There are so many things that are unravelling right now. So much that needs to be done. So many grave problems.

Problems with people and relationships. Problems with addictions. Problems with jobs and money. More than we could ever hope to handle. Some of it beyond our ability to do anything about.

And on top of all of that, there world is full of large-scale problems that none of us can truly escape from.

There’s more than enough to be worried about. If we’re trusting ourselves to handle it.

We’ve got legitimate reasons to worry. Those reasons to worry? They’re kind of unavoidable.

But worrying? Actually being anxious about what could happen? Playing the “what-if” game with ourselves?

Truth be told, we’re not built to do it. And there’s no need for us to do that.

Jesus is looking directly at us in today’s Gospel when He says, “you are anxious and worried about many things. There is need of only one thing.”

What is Jesus talking about? If worry isn’t needed, then what is the one thing that is needed?

Turning to God with our worries. Turning to God with everything that’s making us anxious.

Trusting God with everything that’s weighing down on us.

Saying to God, “I can’t handle all this on my own. I need your help.” Then actually sharing everything that’s weighing you down with God.

And finding, before you’re half done, that your load is already lighter.

Because God has been waiting from before you were born to help you. To support you. To encourage you. To help you carry everything that’s weighing you down.

All there for the asking.

All you and I have to do? Get over ourselves enough to ask.
