lottie presented a charismatic, untouchable, ethereal being, perfectly coiffed, in beautiful caftans vs the unraveling, she’s desperately trying to make them understand her. it’s portrayed like she’s lost already and that her mind really is unsound so any inklings the viewer had suspecting supernatural forces/the wilderness is dwindling. like everything is crumbling. “is there a difference?”. her eye makeup is smudgy. she’s bleeding and wounded and forced to be alone again. draped in a fur coat when the plane dropped and draped in a fur coat at the end. it’s cyclical but it’s so cruel.

The duels of the 'roscos' of the program 'Pasapalabra' are a classic of television that generate not a few controversies in social networks. And if one of the duelists is Orestes, the controversy is served. Orestes Barberohas been, for years, one of the most important contestants on television. Not in vain for years he was triumphing in Telecinco, when the program was broadcasted on that channel, in the last part of the afternoon. And he has continued to do so in Antena 3. Silvia Marty and @_JesusOlmedoamazed by what he did @Rafael_Castano yesterday, repeat alongside him in the orange team! #Pasapalabra641Live: https://t.co/DyOMSfTBlE pic.twitter.com/o1DVIeYt5N- Pasapalabra (@PasapalabraA3) November 8, 2022 And now, after several programs tying in the 'Rosco' with Orestes, Rafa again hit the jackpot in the latest program of 'Pasapalabra'. The only thing left for the Sevillian to guess the surname of a singer to win the check for 1,756,000 euros, after scoring 24 correct guesses. In his 'almost, but not' he has come close to making history on five occasions. Related news Orestes again passed by the 'Blue Chair'. This time in front of Darrena Cadiz native with a degree in Tourism. But a mistake by his opponent made it easier for him to win. Orestes won again and regained his team, playing his 275th program together with the actress Paula Prendes y Luis Piedrahita. On the blue side, the presence of actors stands out. Jesus Olmedo y Silvia Marty. The guest, saddened by the very brief passage of Darren for the contest, made a proposal to the program. "Will you at least stay for lunch?". The seemingly so innocent comment implicitly gave away the fact that 'Pasapalabra' is recorded in the mornings. Roberto Lealaware of the blunder, tried not to let it show. "To dinner, in any case."

Okay, okay. But when you get right down go it, Edmund is just one person. He's not the whole of humanity (or Narnia-anity, as the case may be) - he's just one guy who committed a crime and whose life is therefore forfeit. Aslan takes his place in a direct, one-to-one swap: guilty for innocent. In the process he atones for all sin, but Edmund's the one whose life is being directly saved. The executioner lets him go.
Guys. Edmund is Barabbas.

The Young Justice learns about a new experiment going on at Cadmus once again involving cloning and decides to go rescue the clones. They expertly break into the facility avoiding all alarms only to find out that they trigger anyway. Instead of a voice coming on over the intercoms announcing intruders though, it instead announces an escape. What?
The team continues navigating the base until they come across two kids. The older boy can't be older than 8 while the girl being tugged along behind him looks around 5. The boy narrows his eyes and his body tenses up.
"You're definitely not guards. Who are you?" He questions.
It's Superboy who steps up and says "We're the Young Justice. We came here to rescue you."
The boy doesn't seem to believe them but the girl immediately gets excited. Apparently she couldn't wait to meet real life superheroes. Especially Superboy. That means whatever Cadmus was doing with the kids, they'd already implanted knowledge of the outside world in them. That didn't bode well.
The team decides to push that to the back of their minds for now and focus on the mission. They manage to convince the boy (with the help of the girl) to come with them and they get the two out of the facility. Of course this is after they take all the information they can from the servers (Thanks Robin).
As they get both kids to the medical wing on the Watchtower, the boy introduces himself as Danny and the little girl as his sister Ellie. Connor's never seen clones with such a close bond before and he can admit he's a little jealous that he and Match don't have that kind of relationship. Still he's just happy they rescued the two.
Now to find out who they're clones of and what Cadmus wanted to use them for.

"The idea of it..."
Tumblr media
This is obviously a reference to the ol' argument:
"The Jedi weren't bad but the Jedi Order as an institution needed to go."
So as a quick reminder I thought I'd point out:
1) George Lucas describes the Jedi's eradication as a sad thing, not something sad-but-necessary:
"[The] Jedi getting killed through the Order 66 of the clones is just done as one of those kind of inevitable pay offs in terms of getting rid of everybody, the Emperor is getting rid of all his enemies, but there’s a certain inevitability of it all and a sadness to it.  - Revenge of the Sith, Director’s Commentary, 2005
2) Out of 770 George Lucas quotes, I've never seen him refer to the Jedi Order as "an institution" once.
He does refer to the Republic itself as an institution.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
"[In The Phantom Menace one of the many storylines is] the story of a young queen who's faced with the total annihilation of a people, and how she can get a sluggish political institution to pay attention to what's going on." - Premiere, 1999
He might be referring to the Senate instead of the Republic as a whole, but the point stands: he's not talking about the Jedi.
Which tracks with what Lucas defined as Dooku's reason for leaving the Order: his disenchantment with the Republic/Senate, not the Jedi themselves.
But let's go slightly further:
Tumblr media Tumblr media
The Jedi Temple was designed as a place of worship that would contrast with the corporate coldness of the Senate.
Tumblr media
Also, the Jedi were originally designed as a more organized police force. As the script evolved, they were turned into peacekeepers, diplomats.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Mace's room was redesigned so as to not convey that the Jedi were mired in bureaucracy and protocol.
And when describing the political situation of the Prequels, Lucas doesn't blame the Jedi, but rather the corporations and Senate:
"But as often happens when wealth and power grow beyond all reasonable proportion, an evil fueled by greed arose. The massive organs of commerce mushroomed in power, the Senate became corrupt, and an ambitious named Palpatine was voted Supreme Chancellor." - Shatterpoint, Prologue, 2004
Wow, it's looking like not only is the "Jedi Order as an institution needed to go" narrative not a thing per Lucas, but
3) Lucas went out of his way to make it clear that the Jedi aren't the issue, here, the Republic/Senate is.
So how did we get this narrative?
Well, it comes from a generation of fans and Star Wars creators who were not the target audience.
You know the type. It's the kind who, when asked if they like the Prequel Trilogy, will respond that they liked...
Tumblr media
... but not the execution.
AKA they disliked the Prequels, but then EU books and The Clone Wars came out and provided them with enough material to form a headcanon justifying why they didn't like the Jedi, despite wanting to: it's because the Jedi are meant to be disliked! Totally!
The Jedi failed as an institution is an idea that comes from authors who wanted to engage with the material (it IS Star Wars, after all) but not the narrative that George Lucas had crafted, whose work then influenced older fans who preferred the author's retconned version of the story to the original one.
The rest is history.
As Prequels producer Rick McCallum put it:
"The myth begins on paper. During preproduction, filming, and postproduction, the myth becomes visible through the work of hundreds of dedicated people. Following the film's release, the myth becomes public and the public makes it its own." - Rick McCallum, Mythmaking: Behind the Scenes of Attack of the Clones, 2002

Peach loves showering Mario (and Luigi, but especially Mario) in gifts. He's a simple man with practical preferences, which makes spoiling him fairly easy; an entire dedicated workshop in the castle's west wing, professionally tailored denim and flannels, the best tools money can buy. If she thinks he could benefit from it for even a few fleeting seconds, it's his. He always gets red in the face and stutters in speechless gratitude, and inevitably he'll ask how he could ever repay her. And of course she tells him there's no need! You don't repay gifts. (And anyway, seeing him so flustered yet happy is all the payback she could ever ask for.)
One day she enters the workshop without knocking (as she usually does) and finds Mario sanding a shockingly ornate wooden chair, with a seat that curves upward and rounded arms and flowering branches carved into the back. To her confusion, he scrambles to cover it up and keep it out of sight, so Peach assures him it looks beautiful and comfortable; he must have poured a lot of time and effort into it! Why on earth would he be embarrassed for her to see his handiwork?
And that's when he admits, with a faint and all-too familiar blush, that he's spent months working on it in secret... because it's a gift for her.
Some months back, Peach complained in passing about the rickety old chair in her study, and he had taken the complaint as an opportunity to finally give her something in return for all she's given him, however small. The seat is designed to provide comfort for hours with or without a cushion, the arms will sit level with her desk so she doesn't have to bend over the mountains of paperwork she's often consumed by, and those floral reliefs? Those are peach blossoms.
He apologizes for letting her see it in its unfinished state but assures her it's almost ready, it just needs a few coats of varnish and then she'll be sitting pretty (literally)! And he also apologizes, with a gentle chuckle, for how underwhelming a gift it is, all things considered. But Peach is the opposite of underwhelmed. She can't help but trace her fingers over the raw wood in wonder, her heart full and her eyes stinging with the threat of tears.
Being a princess, she's of course received countless gifts throughout her life. But no one's ever made anything by hand for her. This little chair is the single most personal, most intimate gift she has ever received. Suddenly the untold fortune she's spent on him feels outright paltry in comparison.
The completed chair is brought to her study two days later, and whenever the tedium of her work or the stress of sporadic political instability gets to her, she leans into the delicate wooden peach blossoms, strokes her thumbs over the curves of the arms, and remembers that she's loved.

His eye isn't red.
I don't know if it's just the Tumblr algorithm is getting messed up or if there is a sudden uptick in this but...
Stop drawing Jake with a red eye. I don't care how funny or pretty or deep your art is. If Jake's got a red eye, I'm not reblogging it.
I'm also seeing an uptick in art of the boys doing Jewish things, which is very nice... But some of it is not well researched and is very inappropriate or just misinformed.
There are not six candles on a Menorah. Steven is not going to be dressed like a Rabbi. They also don't worship Khonshu. Not even Jake. Jake isn't going to run around murdering people for funzies.
Please... This fandom has suffered so long from lack of content. I appreciate the amazing art and so on... But don't feed into this just for views or because you think you saw red reflected out of his eye or someone said they did.
Give me content I can love wholeheartedly, share with others, and perhaps even purchase if you are selling.
