Summary of the RNC day 1:

-Colbert crashed the stage at the beginning to declare the opening of the first RNC Hunger For Power Games and, when ushered off stage, commented “I know I shouldn’t be up here but let’s be honest, neither should Donald Trump”

-No really let’s just take a moment to appreciate that, even if it was a pre-approved stunt

-The convention also kicked off with Never Trump delegates trying to force a roll call vote that would free delegates to vote according to their consciences rather than having to vote for Trump. This was shut down, resulting in chaos, and several swing state delegates promptly walked out. PARTY UNITY WOOOO

-Trump’s wife gave a speech in which she plagiarized a speech Michelle Obama gave less than a month ago. The section she plagiarized was about values. Um.

-Speaking of which, Michelle’s head speechwriter used to be Hillary’s. Which means the Trump campaign stole material from a Hillary speechwriter. Awkward.

-Believe it or not the speech also contained a stealth Rickroll

-One of the speakers accused the current POTUS of being Muslim (yes, again)

-BENGHAZI BENGHAZI BENGHAZI

-One of the news outlets had to shut down their comments section on the RNC coverage because it devolved into an anti-Semitic hatefest

-A sitting US Congressman spouted off literal white supremacist rhetoric on national television, saying that nobody had contributed more over the course of history than Western civilization, meaning Europe and other Christian nations, i.e. white people

-They closed out the first night by playing “We Are The Champions” aka a song written by a queer man who died from AIDS (Queen has already stated that they did NOT give permission for this song to be used). Keep in mind that in addition to all the other shit the GOP has pulled regarding LBGT rights, VP pick Mike Pence enacted legislation to specifically allow people/businesses to discriminate against LGBT folks in IN (yes he’s the governor of my state, I’m so sorry, he was elected before I moved here)

-So basically the whole thing is a rolling dumpster fire and it’s only been one day

-Also fuck the GOP

I guess at this point they’ve realized how thoroughly they’ve destroyed their own dignity already and they’re going for crossing out the other side or something

If this were dashcon, stopping The Demagogue would be rewarded with an extra hour in the ball pit.

Apparently, Padmé’s necklace for her evening dress in S.2 “Senate Spy” was given to her by a few clones.

[ladytemeraire]

@clone-memes HEADCANON TIME due to your tags

Okay so I think we can all agree that Anakin and Padme are pretty much terrible about being secretive about their relationship, like it’s literally the worst-kept secret of the 501st.  All the boys in blue know that Their General and the Naboo senator are a thing, to the point that Rex can figure out how well a new Shiny is going to mesh with them based on how long it takes them to figure it out.  (A good chunk of the 212th knows too, and there’s a long-running betting pool on how long it’ll take General Kenobi to find out.)

And the clones like Padme.  She’s one of the few Senators that actually sees them as people, and as individuals, not just pieces on a game board.  Plus she can handle a blaster, which is always appreciated.  The fact that she knows exactly when to stop taking Anakin’s shit just cements the deal.

Long story short, the necklace was an anniversary gift.  Who knows how they figured it out - let’s say one of them overheard Artoo reminding Anakin about the date.  (Which would absolutely happen, because it’s Anakin, let’s be honest; he’s not forgetful per se but there’s a war going on and he’s a tad distracted.)  And the second they get the chance, they gleefully inform the rest of their squad, and it makes the rounds from there.  Literally everyone chips in some credits because duh, it’s Our General and His Important Person, of course we’re going to give them something nice.

A week later, Rex discreetly gives the necklace to Padme with the 501st’s congratulations and best wishes, sorry it’s late, but someone *shoots A Look in Anakin’s direction* didn’t tell us what the actual date was.

[xalemanix]

#which gives me the supplementary headcanon that when Padme was going undercover#she deliberately picked that particular necklace#because it made her feel like she had the 501st with her when she was going into danger#and maybe as a subtle reminder to Anakin about exactly where her loyalties lie#I didn't need these feels before I even had breakfast#incidentally Cody won the betting pool#because he was the only one who figured out that Kenobi knew from the start

What if it was early? Imagine, if you will:

The 501st gets to Coruscant. Anakin has been bitching for like two whole days about the plan to send Padme undercover. How reckless it is, how dare the Council even suggest it, why couldn’t Padme just listen to him, Why has he never seen her in that purple dress before it’s gorgeous. Unfortunately(?) for Anakin, Palpatine has requested his presence. The moment he’s gone, Rex rushes off in a totally separate direction. He just barely makes it to the Senator’s residence in time, and he’s out of breath from sprinting every inch of the distance that he didn’t traverse by speeder; it’s the fastest he’s ever run, and quite frankly he feels like he was faster than the speeder (not that he was using the force or anything that’d be silly). She opens the door and there he is, helmet off, half-dead from the sprint. “Oh, hello, Rex. Is something the matter?”

“No ma’a- well, yeah, always, but that’s not why I’m here.” He gets out this silver case and holds out it, “Sorry, ma’am, I know it’s not for another six months, but we heard about the mission and agreed you should have this now. It’s... something to remind you we’re always there with you, even if you can’t see us.” When Padme opens the case and finds the necklace and an anniversary card that’s five pages thick because the entire 501st signed it and left her messages of encouragement in Mando’a with translations into basic.

I’m learning something recently

Honestly

the worst part of being married

is being talked to by other people about your marriage

The amount of mildly sexist shit David and I have heard from friends and family since we got hitched is exhausting

Getting married didn’t suddenly make me domineering, always right and someone who exists to bicker with her husband.

Getting married didn’t make David a stupid sitcom husband who can’t do anything right, doesn’t deserve an opinion and has to bend to my will.

I am tired of older married women talking to me like I am supposed to be annoyed with my husband and always rolling my eyes at how stupid he is. And I don’t like seeing David having to awkwardly laugh with people as they tell him how we HAVE to do what I say because I’m the wife and I own his life now. If you do see us bickering over something, guess what? That ain’t your fucking business. We’re adults, we’ll sort it the fuck out. You don’t get to go tell my husband that he is useless and has to do what I want him to do without question.

I know we’ve barely been married a year but we’ve been together for almost 9, lived together for over 5 and I can tell you guys now, the only thing marriage changed is our tax forms and what jewelry we put on in the morning. 

Also if one more middle aged white woman walks into our guest bedroom and goes ‘this could be a nursery~’ you know what that room is going to become? Your grave. 

Sorry, David and I were setting up our nerd cave last night and I noticed we kept apologizing for shit that wasn’t a problem and we just had to stop and be all…..oh THIS is what the actual problem is and I just wanted to rant lol

OMG. I’m holding onto that one.

[obsidiandragon]

Oh my GOD, the number of people who were baffled that my husband’s opinion mattered when I was decorating the nursery. Like, we both made the kid and live in the house????
