Happy birthday to Ara and @richtercadell.bsky.social! I made this cake for them because they’re THE BEST! #StarWars It’s a brownie cake with white chocolate cream cheese frosting and strawberry jam. Oreos for the dirt and rocks!

I know this won’t be popular, but while we are discussing boycotting Disney over the Kimmel situation (love you, Andor fans!), I personally found The Acolyte to be outrageously sexist and am frustrated that it got lauded as “progressive” and its critics all lumped in with bigots.

The fact that we are normalizing putting words in peoples’ mouths without their consent, even in death, is horrifying.

WHAT I’VE BEEN SAYING!!!

It’s so bizarre to see this current trend of people arguing characters aren’t “good enough” for redemption. Redemption is ONLY for bad people. Good people don’t need redeeming.

If the sun knocks out electronics and we all stop fighting, I swear I’ll start praying to the sun god. No shame. All hail Shamash! How sweet it is to praise you!

The Ancient Sumerians used a Base-60 numbering system (we use Base-10). This is called a sexagesimal system, and is primarily used for time, angles, and coordinates. Typical Gilgamesh. Used a system that enabled building megaliths and which had the word “sex” in it.

If any of you have ever wondered why I’ve never taken off as a sponsored influencer, it’s not because I haven’t had offers. It’s because I refuse to be told what to say. Even for pay. To my own detriment. I’ll die poor and sick but with my own words in my mouth.

So @hankgreen.bsky.social made a (perhaps unintentionally) sexist video, and of all people, the knitting community is taking him to task for it. Incase you needed another weird development for your bingo card.

What I’m saying is, two world wars were set into motion because an Archduke got shot. And that was a suspiciously excellent shot of a politically divisive figure we just witnessed. Nope. The CIA ain’t gonna psy-op me on this one. Nice try.

You don’t defeat fascism with violence. That only fights it into remission. You defeat fascism by changing the material conditions that lead to it. This is an important distinction. Do not let propaganda make you forget.

Never forget that Gilgamesh’s granddaddy invented writing just so he could diss another King in longform.

I really do.

Y’all complain about GenZ having no media literacy, but then make fun when they figure out the “I don’t like sand” monologue’s is actually about Anakin’s childhood as a slave on Tatooine. Yeah, the scene is goofy! But why mock someone for noticing subtext? That’s how we learn.

If there’s any advice I can give to any artists younger than me: Your passion doesn’t have to be monetized. Make your art even if it doesn’t go viral. It has worth on its own.

New Ninjutsu just dropped

Everyone will be converted!!!

“GenZ loves Anakin because they’re fascists!” Have you considered neurodivergence in the GenZ population is the reason instead? That they resonate with a character that is alienated and constantly has his emotions pathologized rather than receive help and understanding?

All this talk in voice acting circles about unprofessional behavior, backstabbing one another and basing auditions off what could lead to convention appearances reminds me of the apocryphal Laurence Olivier quote: "Why don't you just try acting?"

Just let Temura Morrison come back already. This is out of hand!

If anyone can spare something for a lovely person.

No cheating, post the last pic of your pet(s)

So many of the ice cream treats I grew up with are now just “frozen dairy dessert”. Not even close enough to ice cream to be called that. More expensive than ever for low quality crap deceptively marketed as the same. I hate this time period.

I never liked Joseph much in the original King of the Hill series, but in the revival he’s somehow become my favorite? Every single line out of his mouth is GOLD!

How in the world did the discourse become “If you want Luke Skywalker back then you’re a nostalgia-blinded CHUD who hates women!” I think a hero like Luke who has the power to defeat evil with violence but actively chooses compassion and love is a good thing, actually???

So… we all notice that every place is understaffed nowadays, right? It’s gone beyond skeleton crews to running on just bone marrow. Every place takes applications but never hires until their current 2-3 employees burn out. Customer service is non existent. Is this forever now?

Alright, enough. I’ve caught up on all the Star Wars shows. I need to stop before I trip and accidentally adapt Heir to the Empire into a screenplay — WHOOPS.

Bringing Mara Jade into canon would be so easy. Just make her Vader’s apprentice (RIP Starkiller). Say Palpatine gave her to Vader to train as an assassin. That makes it easy for Palpatine to manipulate her into wanting to kill Luke; she believes he killed her Master.

“Why does Leia randomly have a British accent in that one scene!?” Has anyone considered she was making fun of Tarkin, the person she is talking to? It’s on brand!

Discourse nowadays: When anecdote agrees with me - Lived experience When anecdote disagrees with me - Trauma dumping When case supports me - Listen to victims When case disproves me - Hoax by bad faith actor Don’t pretend your side doesn’t do it.

You could never make a character accurate Prequel musical the way several have for the Original trilogy. Because let’s be honest, Anakin would get sulky and refuse to sing. Meanwhile, Obi Wan would have a few too many drinks and never stop.

Everyone’s clowning on Star Wars Theory for saying “Vader wouldn’t tolerate that”. But just remember the one time Anakin saw attempted SA against Padme in Clone Wars, he went berserk. So I dunno. Maybe he associates creeps with Clovis. Let my boy SWTheory LIVE.

So @richtercadell.bsky.social is working on a Phantom Menace edit that adds the Dooku plotline in, fleshes out his relationship with Qui Gon and Mace, and even has an original scene where Obi Wan and Padme have a conversation about his relationship with Qui Gon. It adds so much context!

I’ve been burned in this industry for calling out abusers and liars. My career will never be as successful as it could’ve been. Idgaf. Vindication is bittersweet. I wish no one had to be hurt this way. Never put clout before your convictions. Anime isn’t worth your soul.

Nothing has made my narcolepsy less symptomatic than CBN. Wish I could find a doctor treating with this stuff. It’s so understudied. Whoever decided to start treating narcolepsy with “just CBT” is a monster. Therapy isn’t going to make your brain produce orexin.

“But how would you feel if South Park targeted you?” My reactionary friend, if I were ever culturally significant enough to have a caricature of me made on South Park, I’d consider that an absolute win.

Okay I have finished them. #StarWars LA TV shows ranked. 1. Andor 2. Skeleton Crew 3. The Mandalorian 4. Ahsoka (Anakin and Ahsoka scenes only) 5. Book of Boba Fett 6. Ahsoka (the rest of it) You can’t make me watch The Acolyte.

My #StarWars conspiracy theory, and why suddenly wanting to see Luke and Leia gets you shamed online.

Racist stereotypes are crazy because so many of them are as vague and universal as horoscopes. “Black people like fried chicken” WHO DOESN’T? “Jewish people like money” WHO DOESN’T!? “Latinos are sleepy all the time” MY BROTHER, AREN’T YOU? This time period is EXHAUSTING!

I know I haven’t made an Aninalysis video in forever, but I swear, I think I have to. I cracked the #StarWars code. Skeleton Crew was the key to everything, but no one saw because so few watched it. I just need to find a new editor…

Look at all the beautiful people I work with!!! 😍

No fan “glazes” Anakin He’s the Chosen One born of immaculate conception with the most midochlorians EVER and is the best pilot in the galaxy and a cunning warrior and a good friend and has the most potential and the Mortis Gods bow to him and and and… CANON built him that way

Rey burying the Skywalker lightsaber in the sands of Tatooine: ❌ Rey going to Tosche Station and trading the Skywalker lightsaber for power converters: ✅

This is a true story.

I will always love the characters and intent of the prequels while regretting their unfortunate execution. I will always admire the execution of FA and TLJ more than their story or characters. I have nothing good to say about TROS and never will.

My #LiloAndStitch 2025 review: It was utter slop. The worst of them all. The sloppiest of slop. A complete and utter deluge of wet and stringy refuse macerated in its own mediocrity and insidious cleansing of any and all worthwhile messages the original had,

The elephant in the room that no one wants to acknowledge is that Chase Strangio has neither the competency nor the work ethic to handle the caliber of cases the ACLU has entrusted him with. At some point we need to be honest with ourselves. He demolished his own case from the start.

My friend was showing me Clone Wars. Cut to the episode where Jar Jar and Mace Windu are sent on a mission together. Mace gets confused for Jar Jar’s servant. Uncomfortable implication. But then my friend suddenly shouts in a perfect Jar Jar impression “Meesa black as well!” 💀

The #StarWars prequels needed a scene where someone finds out about Palpatine and tries to say that the leadership on both sides are colluding and deceiving the public to grab power and take away freedoms. Only to be shouted down as an idiot claiming “both sides are the same”.

Everytime I’m struggling to pay for essentials (all the time) and remember I’ve been offered VERY GOOD MONEY to write hateful political schlock with zero artistic merit, I die a little inside. I still won’t do it. But goddammit. I really wish I’d get an offer I can live with.
