Bisexual but it's not on the typical [she/her - he/him] slider but on the [she/her - they/them] slider.
the concept of "canon" is fake anyway. if you write a fanfic with better emotional arcs than the original you win. i said what i said
Anything past the original creators of a media is just fanfiction.
For example, Batman was created by Bob Kane and Bill Finger, any Batman related media not made by them is fanfiction. It's official fanfiction, but fanfiction none the less.
Don't let corporations make you feel bad for doing what they're already doing
Fuck them.
lesbians making out video but with reduced music so u can hear them making out sloppy style. happy pride! 🏳️🌈🔊
That giggle is *everything*. That joy.

So, wait, Dr. Gero probably doesn't know about the Saiyan genetics that make them turn into giant apes, right?
Cell has a tail, perfect cell still has a tail tho it's like a little nub.
Imagine if Vegeta was all "Heh, fuck it, let's see if this works" and made the artificial moon.
Great Ape Cell.
Cell not knowing what's going on would be mindless.
Easy victory.

Islam for some of you and transgender for the rest tbh
Instead of Mohammed and Jesus coming back to fight demons or whatever it's just them turning everyone trans.
If you're already trans you become Super Trans (TM)
Poor thing, she's dying from cringe 😔
I can't leave comments because of some network error
AtLA Fic Idea #a lot: "Cringe is in the Eye of the Beholder" or "You Had Me At Cringe".
In their 20's, Toph can't stand it when Suki is around. Not because Suki dated Sokka. Not because it hurt Sokka a lot when she broke up with him (he's a big boy and can handle it). Nope, none of those reasons... It seems that every time Suki comes around Toph just can't help but be fucking cringe.
It's really driving Toph insane.
It just so happens that cringe is Suki's type.
just wanted to say... THANK YOU FOR ACTUALLY CALLING OUT PADME'S CHARACTER FLAWS OMG- SO MANY PEOPLE IN THE FANDOM JUST COMPLETELY IGNORE IT AND IT INFURIATES ME
You're welcome :)
The problem is that people can't distinguish between a bad character trait and a bad character. So they sanitize characters and only focus on the nice "clean" parts and ignore everything else even though that turns the character into a badly written character.
So when you have some light hearted fun they go absolutely fucking mental.
Padme is allowed to be flawed and she's allowed to look at this twink and ignore the giant ass red flags even though that gets her dirty.
Stories would fucking suck if characters didn't have flaws.
Yep that's it, I got blocked by several Star Wars blog and I strongly assume it's because I dared to question Padmé and her relationship with Anakin that wasn't in any way functional. Welcome to Tumblr dot com 🙏
It's kinda sad but the best place on the internet for Star Wars discourse is r/prequelmemes (unless you want to talk sequel stuff in which they go feral as if the prequels don't have every problem they bitch about the sequels having)
Also really telling when ppl I know who don't even really care for star wars are like "uhh she gets with that kid... Uhhh... What".

how does the fact that people don't like your demonization of padme and the fact that you put her on par with her groomer and a fucking space devil and call her racist and a groomer for no reason mean that we think that "padme is perfect and can do no wrong" and "female characters are trophies for male characters"??? padme didn't seduce anakin into leaving the jedi because in aotc movie, which you clearly haven't seen, there's literally a huge scene where anakin confesses his love to her, and padme refuses him so as not to ruin his jedi career. hell, she kept rejecting him the entire movie, and finally accepted his feelings only when it became clear they were about to fucking die, and even then he spent like 24/7 time at war and she constantly assured him that obiwan/jedi council trusted him, so he wouldn't dump his career for her, which is her actual flaw btw.
and yes, padme wouldn't have agreed to rule with anakin, but what does that have to do with the topic at hand? rots emphasizes that anakin wants to kill palpatine and not because of rule of 2, but decides to keep him alive in order to use him to save padme. the movie and george lucas say that anakin went to the dark side to save padme, but obviously, some people in the fandom have a different opinion on the matter. yeah, yoy right, anakin probably just really wanted to fuck the crusty old man, you're sooo smart.
Crashing out due to your own weaponized ignorance hitting you in the face is such a great look on you anon.
I hope you get the help you need but I'm not sure anyone is qualified for that much work.
when two musicians sing into the same microphone and lean in very close to each other… like omg are you guys gonna kiss now to relieve the homoerotic tension?😳
THIS IS NOT ABOUT ONE DIRECTION I DON’T KNOW WHO THIS “HARRY” PERSON IS GO WATCH BRUCE SPRINGSTEEN AND CLARENCE CLEMONS KISS ON STAGE RIGHT NOW
op is the only valid person i’ve ever met. everyone else needs to come to the light
Okay, but this is really important: Bruce Springsteen occupied this really weird place in music history. His songs were all from this pessimistic, nihilistic view of an America that had let him down:
Just like the anti-Vietnam War protest songs that we associate with the 1960s, or the early nihilism that spawned punk music in the 1970s. But he didn’t *sound* like a punk anarchist; he sounded like a country rock singer. When he released Born in the U.S.A. people completely misinterpreted (or possibly ignored) the lyrics in favor of the tone of the music.
Politicians used his music to promote their ‘Murica Yes! brand, and he had to literally explain that that was not what he was about. He’s over here asking when we’re going to have jobs and heathcare, not stanning the politicians who weren’t helping the people.
It was also kind of a big deal that he had an integrated band, because even as late as the 1980s music was still kind of segregated and MTV was straight up racist. They refused to play and promote black artists and then claimed that were no black artists in the first place. Michael Jackson’s record company had to threaten a boycott of their white artists to get MTV to play his Thriller video.
Plus, the first black/white interracial kiss on TV was in 1968 (OG Star Trek). Also it took us until the 70s to get sympathetic gay characters on screen, and the 90s to get gay characters to kiss onscreen. And all of those firsts were met with outrage.
So keep that in mind when you see Bruce Springsteen not just playing with an interracial band, but engaging in an interracial, gay kiss on stage repeatedly.
Passages from American Popular Music by Larry Starr and Christopher Waterman
I used to think that Bruce and Clarence kissing onstage was exuberance, showmanship, and telling racist homophobes to fuck off. Like, they picked up a certain kind of audience and went “Racist homophobes? Not in our house!” And started the kissing then but then I actually looked it up and

It was a story where… we remade the city. We remade the city, shaping it into the kind of place where our friendship and our love for one another wouldn’t have been such an exceptional thing. - Bruce Springsteen
It wasn’t about showmanship or rejecting bigots or anything it was just. Damn right that was one of the loves of his life and damn right he was going to kiss him onstage
It gets me a little that Bruce has had a divorce, that he’s been married twice, but he loved Clarence for the rest of Clarence’s life and will presumably love him the rest of his own
Clemons said in one interview. “Bruce and I looked at each other and didn’t say anything, we just knew. We knew we were the missing links in each other’s lives. He was what I’d been searching for.” In another version of the story, Clemons says “He looked at me, and I looked at him, and we fell in love.”
I’m having some emotions about it!
“He was elemental in my life,“ Springsteen adds, “and losing him was like losing the rain.”
Not just! I love you pure and deep and true but! I am going to love you like that in front of the whole damn world!
We have fewer narratives about taking risks and making statements for platonic love rather than romantic and supposedly it would be easier to downplay this onstage than romance and! They refused! They fucking refused! In front of hundreds of thousands of people, over the course of years! In the spotlight, in word and deed, I love you!
God I’m not okay about it
Now I’m mad that this is not among any of the things I was ever told about this artist.
I knew about this in general (& via all those fabulous photos), but this just adds even more beautiful context <3
Just to add to the pile: this was the cover of Springsteen’s break-through album Born to Run, in 1975:
I mean, will you LOOK at this:
This was the pic chosen for the album cover from an extensive photoshoot, too. A few others:
There’s a lot more online if you search. They’re all pretty amazing. But the photographer is right, the one chosen for the album cover just pops.
blud literally hated Palpatine the moment he learned that bitch was a sith and joined him only for the chance to save padmé, planning to murder him so he could rule alongside with his wifey. who's the one getting out-seduced here? all misogynists go to hell btw
Well, if your IQ weren't permanently stuck south of room temperature you would know a few key things about Star Wars.
Anakin choked out Padme to the point he was all "yeah, I killed her, that checks out".
Anakin killing Sidious someday is a feature of the "rule of two" not a bug.
If Padme had survived she never would have ruled alongside Anakin unless she was forced to, which Anakin would probably have forced her to.
Now that we got some core ideologies and plotlines from the movies out of the way, sorry I assumed people understood Star Wars, that's my B...
Just because Padme couldn't groom Anakin as well as Sheev could isn't misogyny, as it isn't related to her being a woman. Change her to a sexy, badass, competent, mildly racist man and nothing changes. She just wasn't in politics long enough to learn the good tricks of the trade.
But you give off the vibe of "Padme is perfect and can do no wrong" and "female characters are trophies for male characters" and all I can say to that is "uhhh yikes" and "eww".
So I suggest you do some self-reflecting and maybe, just maybe, watch the movies or read a comic book or something, cause damn.
