fic writers for the mandalorian ! this vid ended up being pretty interesting analytically wrt din’s fighting style and what benefits him — i don’t agree w everything stated in it just due to differing opinions / analysis and ofc some things have changed because this vid was posted before s2, but regardless it’s still pretty useful for understanding his weapons (most helpful bit imo) + the way he fights
(+ anything u might disagree w or that has been removed from or changed in canon by the end of s2 is addressed and analyzed by many ppl in the comments! so thats useful too)
gender-neutral version of niece/nephew is nibling, of aunt/uncle is unty. so glad we worked that out!

to my friends in red states, please stay safe and watch out for each other. stay inside and avoid going out if you don’t need to. not to stir up fear in the wake of victory, but there are numerous watchdog organizations warning people — especially black and trans folks — to expect a sharp uptick in violence and tension. the naacp has issued a warning to black people in missouri to STAY INSIDE, STAY TOGETHER, STAY SAFE. check on your friends. stay informed. if you aren’t following them already, check out the naacp website and watchdog organizations to keep an eye on things in your area.
to white folks, this is a time for you to celebrate as well, but things are far from over. reach out to your poc and trans friends, particularly your black and trans friends, and check on them and make sure they feel safe. DO NOT STOP DONATING TO PAYPALS AND GOFUNDMES. CONTINUE SHARING RESOURCES AND INFORMATION. CONTINUE PARTICIPATING IN COMMUNITY AID. electing biden did not simultaneously wipe out the issues many marginalized communities are facing. YOUR PART IN THIS IS NOT OVER BECAUSE THIS FIGHT IS NOT OVER.
to succinctly sum up the energy we need to cultivate going forward:
you can reblog this. white people can and should reblog this. likes do nothing for us.
same goes with pretty much anything else tbh.
you wanna sing but you ‘can’t’? wrong, you can, sing out the window, hold concerts in the showers, belt out half remembered lyrics.
you wanna dance but you ‘can’t’? wrong again, you can, the floor is your own and the music is to your liking. dance until you can’t and even then keep going.
literally who the fuck cares? who the fuck cares about quality when knowing that it makes you happy is good enough? who ever the fuck cares about whether what you’re doing ‘good’ is someone you shouldn’t care about.
its your world and you’re the one fucking living in it so its bout damn time you start acting like it
STOP saying u cant draw something u can literally draw whatever U want. I wanna draw a horse, BAM drew a horse. I wanna draw two ppl kissing BAM drew two ppl kissing. I am God of mine own hands and I will create
Me, weeping while holding the broken corpse of a character: Who did this to you? You were so young, you had your whole life before you! WHO DID THIS TO YOU?
Me, a moment later: Oh, I did. *drops body to ground* Time for the Angst :-)
Gaud never really fails to give good advice (when they want to)
I remember an earlier post they made about reading critically and by god I have that post ingrained in my head now every time I do research.
Now here’s another one.
Be angry. But be wise.
Always be wise.
An important thing I am learning is to remember to ask myself "Is there a better target for my anger?"
