Yes Im Rewatching Tcw Again Mind Ur Business

We know many of you have seen NaNoWriMo's recent statements on generative AI...

Well, we have too—and that's why we've made the decision to retract our sponsorship of NaNo.

Your support and belief in human creativity, transparency and collaboration mean everything to us, and we're committed to staying true to that. Thank you all! 💙

One should always have at least 2 craft projects going. That way, when one of them is messed up and misbehaving, you can switch to another, and let the first one sit there and think about what it's done.

It's never not hilarious how The Clone Wars Season 3 Episode 7 "Assassin" is basically just "what Anakin should have done"

Like aside from the obvious-that Ahsoka actually talks to Yoda about what she's having visions of-there's also the fact that she doesn't avoid the visions either

In a bit that was cut (albeit still remains in most novelizations) from the final version of ROTS, Anakin stops sleeping altogether in order to stop experiencing visions (although I think you can still get the basics of this across in the final version of the film since we never see him experiencing more visions)

Assassin shows us why this was precisely a wrong move

Throughout the episode Ahsoka either meditates on her vision or experiences new ones as she sleeps, the results being the visions became clearer or they changed because of Ahsoka's actions, ultimately resulting in the vision not coming true

So basically if Anakin hadn't been all "gotta avoid things that make me uncomfortable!" (Or y'know just listen to Yoda's correct advice) and worked through the visions he would have either changed them or gotten a clearer picture

just a normal day at the normal office where everything is normal always

an unwanted promotion

Actually while I don't think we need an Ahsoka show, as this time period in the franchise has a lot of media already and quite frankly, the direction they chose with her character is boring and irritating, I think the character we get in the show better fits a younger, fresher Ahsoka. Someone still building the Fulcrum network and having to come to terms with the fact that everyone she knew and cared about is gone besides Rex.

We could see her struggle with grief and missing Anakin, and during that reflection realize that some of the lessons he imparted on her were bad. I think a show could do a lot with her having to struggle in this new world, one where she can't be Anakin's mini me. She may be no Jedi like she wants to claim, but perhaps exploring her returning to her roots to find peace.

It would give us more context how Clone Wars Ahsoka, a hot head with a reckless streak and a strong sense of right and wrong that she'd pursue to the ends of the galaxy has mellowed out, be one more peaceful, and is now having to occasionally operate in gray areas to survive and build the rebellion. Because the Ahsoka we see in her show is more inline with her Clone Wars personality and ignoring everything that's happened to the Jedi, Anakin, and everyone she knew. You can't not learn that someone you knew destroyed your people, and then proceeded to be one of the most evil forces in the galaxy, and not have some things come into retrospect. We never actually see her come to terms with Anakin being Darth Vader besides a brief conversation in the World Between Worlds and while a prequel Rebels show wouldn't address that, it could address her character maturing. Because as of now, her character only serves to exist in a story where she's always right, and thus bends her character to the writers' whim.

A lot of people seem to have the idea that the point of SW is that Jedi are not automatically good

No

The Jedi are good, full stop, end of discussion

But

Its not that being a Jedi is what makes you good

It's that being good is what makes you a Jedi

To be a Jedi is to choose good, you can't be a Jedi if you're not choosing good, and if you're choosing good you're choosing to be a Jedi
