If there's any character in this world who suffers from literary Ken-ification it's Patroclus. Especially in the zeitgeist of today (thanks tsoa), it's always Achilles AND Patroclus, never just Patroclus. Who is he? Why does he exist? He is Achilles' boyfriend! What's his job? Death! In the sense that he just. Dies. That's just his job now. Death. Death and Achilles' boyfriend. That's it.

"no attachments" in SW literally just means "don't be selfish and possessive". that's it. that's all there is. doesn't mean jedi can't have friends and loved ones. they can. just. don't be possessive and selfish about it. don't murder thousands of people in an effort to save one.

"School districts that don’t respect transgender and nonbinary students’ pronouns or force them to use restrooms that don’t align with their gender identity could be committing federal civil rights violations beginning this fall.

Today, the U.S. Department of Education announced the issuance of a final rule under Title IX to protect people in public schools from sex-based discrimination and harassment. The announcement marks a significant update in federal efforts to combat sex discrimination in federally funded educational institutions. During a call with reporters, Secretary of Education Miguel Cardona emphasized the administration’s dedication to ensuring that Title IX effectively serves all students by providing safe, welcoming, and rights-respecting educational environments."

I know this is going to make me sound pretensions but I have to get it off my chest. I feel an unimaginable rage when someone posts a photo and is like "this picture looks like a renaissance painting lol" when the photo clearly has the lighting, colors and composition of a baroque or romantic painting. There are differences in these styles and those differences are important and labeling every "classical" looking painting as renaissance is annoying and upsetting to me. And anytime I come across one of those posts I have to put down my phone and go take a walk because they make me so mad

"Not all men-" you're absolutely right! Mace Windu would never

I will never tire of soft fluffy Codywan, but I am just as much here for the tired, bitchy coworkers Codywan. The ‘per my last holo-message’- Codywan. The ‘darkening your doorway at 3am because you messed up the requisition forms AGAIN’-Codywan. The ‘I swear to the Force I’ve very carefully explained this filing system three times, if you mess this up again I’m going to lose my FUCKI—’ And yeah let them get catty with each other, but force-fucking-forbid if there’s a third party involved— like one senator proposes a breathtakingly stupid strike plan for the 212th and returns from his lunch break with six missed calls from both the General and Commander— immediately walked out the door and began a new life as a farmer on Tahl, and thats before he even gets the fifth, “Re:re:re:re:to whom it may concern…” email in his inbox. I firmly believe it’s common knowledge that one of the most terrifying phenomena in the Galaxy is somehow managing to piss off both head officers of 212th battalion at once. The full potential of the tired , chaotic coworker dynamic between these two, and between them and everyone else, is truly a fruitful bounty

Just thinking of aspects of Jedi life we don’t know much about, like dancing. Dancing is good exercise, a good way to communicate, a good way to process pent up emotions, helps with learning balance and team work.

Like there’s saber forms, but I picture that more as serious self control and respect involved because not only is a lightsaber a Jedi’s life, but it also potentially can take lives.

But along with saber forms also dance class for younglings. Ways for them to have fun with all their energy. Higher level classes where they sprinkle the Force in there to teach quick movements. Lots of group dances.

Jedi having fun, Jedi dancing.

Also singing. Singing is a way people calm down and reach out and meditate. What kind of beautiful songs and music did Jedi write while connecting with the Force?
