Even if I didn’t have a solid plan, in the back of my head, I always assumed I’d kill myself.
Now I’m an adult and people my age have their lives in order and I’m stuck here, confused, because I never planned to be alive and I’m so far behind.
I feel like I’ll never catch up.

does Dooku still count as a Jedi for color attack zone? perhaps... in my wife fucking left me?
Glamnanor Jan "My Wife Fucking Left Me" Dooku
I can't decide if I spent more time on the colors or on fixing his eyebrows.

As someone who studies natural sciences, I think Coruscant as a planet is very interesting in a very horrifying way.
There is nothing natural there. The whole planet is completely dead. No natural climate, no hydrological cycle, no natural seasons, no fauna or vegetation left. The planet is completely dead, in a biological sense.
Coruscant is haunted because it's dead, and the only thing left there from the planet itself are ghosts.

A first look at Mei’s redesign, I was originally planning on saving showing her until i finished all my ref sheets but i think her cute little grumpy face is worth sharing lol
some tidbits about the design:
Mei is very much a cuddle bug.. so she is a woman of many coats. Anything that she can snuggle in <3
I’ll get into this more when I give a full rundown but her main plan of attack is always to just run in headfirst, so she has adopted the idea of wearing thicker armor (not completely though, because she is very quick and needs to be agile) but she does take on the arm so she can sorta use it as a shield to barge in if you get me
She doesn’t wear them all the time though, and her waistband can be replaced with a regular jedi waistband
The shoulder pauldron belonged to her padawan, personally i like to think that the “white” on clone armor is some sort of outer layer, and when Mei stripped it to alter the armor, the grey is the next layer below that white coat
When she was a very young padawan, she suffered a pretty nasty blow to the face which scarred deep and damaged her eye. This is where her faux heterochromia comes from, along with the white hair on that side of her head. I haven’t settled on the accidents specifics but it was definitely force related. The actual scarring on her face is pretty faint now that she is grown, but the hair and eye remain prominent.
the red ribbon in her hair may or may not have a matching ribbon around Laws wrist <3 I have yet to finish his design though so you’ll just have to take my word for it
BAGGY PANTS!!!

The Islamic Origins of the Jedi
Ramadan starts in a few days so I figured that now was a great time to talk about this!
(Disclaimer: My point here isn’t to detract from other sources of inspiration that GL used to create the Jedi, but simply to point out another, lesser known one that many often overlook or intentionally refuse to acknowledge.)
I’m Muslim. My family follows the Hanafi madhab, and the guidance of the Naqshbandi order of Sufi masters, mystics, and teachers. I’m by no means an expert or a scholar, but the Sufi theology and view of the Divine is so clearly prevalent as one of the many inspirations for the Force and the Jedi, that it’s hard to get ignore - and it’s hard to watch while people choose to ignore it.
For starters, we know that during his research for the films, George Lucas met and consulted with the Habibiyyah Sufi order in California. He asked questions and learned what they believed.
Something else that’s hard to ignore is the robes that the Jedi wear! I know they’re commonly thought to be inspired by other origins, but I’d like to point out that the traditional Sufi robes look similar to the Jedi as well.
Still not convinced?
Let’s look at the origins of the word ‘Jedi’. While most believe that it comes from the word ‘jidaigeki’, as GL has mentioned in passing, there is an Arabic equivalent that’s translated to fit the meaning of the Jedi Order with surprising accuracy.
The word is Al-Jeddi, which translates to ‘master of the mystic warrior way’.
In an article released by a prominent Sufi Muslim order, ‘jeddi’ is mentioned by name and a definition that looks and sounds familiar to the Jedi Order of Star Wars and how the Force is viewed by them:
“We are, at our core, a Movement of Jeddi; Sufi masters of Futuwwat ("the Way of the mystic-warrior"). We encourage adherents to train both physically AND spiritually, for their own personal edification and to enhance their knowledge and abilities in the Struggle. The Balance does not lie alone in contemplation, prayer and meditation; nor does it lie alone in action and revolution.”
At the end of the day, we know that Star Wars appropriated from many, many sources that went mostly uncredited and ignored - in ways that had lasting and negative impacts on the peoples and cultures that served as inspiration - and this was one of them.
One of my biggest complaints about the appropriation present here is that it is an opportunity missed - a big one. There was an opportunity to educate, to help others understand what is often misunderstood, simply by being transparent about what you took, from whom, and most importantly, why.
So I’m sharing this with you now, because education is everything, and it is so, so important to be aware of examples of things like this in the media we consume!

hey people who know the story of jepthahs daughter - what is your personal interpretation of it?
I'm doing a cnf for my english major work, and i'd love to know if some of the interpretations have different quirks within people's church circles or just in general - if she was burnt or sanctified, if it was jephthahs fault or not, the semantics of the vow and precedences etc
#PREV TAGS AUGH THIS IS SO SWEET thank you so much!#trying to see if more nighttime people on my dash will know this
