lately i have been a bit miffed by the lack of awareness when it comes to queer characters, and more specifically sapphic characters, in the Star Wars canon. so, in my capacity as the patron saint of lesbian visibility, i've decided to quit whining about it and be the one to spread some knowledge
without further ado.....a very long and obnoxious lesson
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
now let me tell you about them. in detail. through very specific categories
you don't have anything else to do, right?
CATEGORY ONE: GAY. ON. SCREEN.
they're gay. on screen.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
CATEGORY TWO: THE A WORD
Doctor Aphra and her web of lesbianity
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
CATEGORY THREE: HANDGAYDENS
Padme Amidala and her gay handmaidens
Tumblr media Tumblr media
CATEGORY FOUR: THE HIGHLY GAY REPUBLIC
all the many, many queers of the golden age of the jedi
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
CATEGORY FIVE: VIDEO GAYMES
queers from the Jedi games and related media
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
CATEGORY SIX: GAY FROM A CERTAIN POINT OF VIEW
characters created for or made queer in the From a Certain Point of View books
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
CATEGORY SEVEN: COMICALLY QUEER
wlws from comics not involved with Aphra
Tumblr media
CATEGORY EIGHT: BOOKED AND GAY

Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
whew. still here?

thank you for scrolling all the way through this. if you are interested in talking about any of these people or want to know how to learn more about them on your own, my inbox is always open!!
and seriously folks, if you’re interested in any of them i implore you: read their stories, write fic, make art!!! the more we show that these characters are appreciated and talked about, the more likely we are to get more like them, and hopefully more that are even better and more visible rep
that’s all from me. have a gay day

Sometimes I think it's just scary to open up like that. To say how you really feel. Especially to people you care about the most. Because what if... what if they don't like the truth? // Sometimes people don’t really say what they’re really thinking. But, you capture the right moment… it says more. // I didn't say it. // You didn't have to.

me when i can wish all that i want but it won’t bring us together plus i know whatever happens to me i know it’s for the better and if i could give you the moon i would give you the moon and i’m a bad liar with a savior complex and if i fix you would you hate me and sometimes i think i’m a killer and here everyone knows you’re the way to my heart and you must’ve been looking for me sending smoke signals and i hate you for what you did and i miss you like a little kid

CW: typical JK rowling transphobia lies ahead
so jk rowling is now straight up in her HOLOCAUST DENIAL era…
Tumblr media
which doesn’t really make any sense whatsoever to me because how are you going to write an entire series depicting a fictionalized version of nazis and yet degrade and deny the existence of a group that they targeted?? make it make SENSE my god.
and the funniest/saddest part? somehow, all of the adult harry potter fans i saw over the past few days crying over miriam margolyes jokingly saying that she worries for harry potter fans are going to be radio fucking silent about this. lmao. show your true colors a little more, why don’t you guys?

so i’ve owned song of achilles for 3 years now but every time i attempted to read it, i couldn’t bring myself to finish the last few chapters because i knew EXACTLY how it was going to end. well this week i attempted to pick it up for a fourth or fifth (?) time, and this time i actually made it through to the end. and uh i was absolutely right to dread reading the ending!! if someone had taken me out to the back and shot me a dozen times over it would’ve been FAR less painful than actually reading those last few chapters! it’s been about six hours since i finished the book and there are still tear marks on my face from how hard i sobbed. i am not even being dramatic (okay i definitely am) when i say there’s only two ways to measure life: life before finishing SOA and life after finishing SOA. how am i just supposed to go on now.

still thinking about that tiktok someone who had never read the books posted with a list of reasons why they thought grover would be the traitor. like what on earth led you to that conclusion 😭
Luke’s betrayal in tlt is such a core childhood memory for me that I keep finding it hard to believe some ppl watching the show genuinely don’t know abt it cuz to me that’s like universal common knowledge even tho I know it’s not actually lol

personally i think the most banger tumblr moment for me in 2023 was when i found out how insane destiel actually was and innocently made a tumblr post about it only to find out that w*ncest shippers unironically exist and they are the meanest mfs to ever roam this earth. how do i know this? because they found that post and came for me MERCILESSLY. like them calling me an idiot and naïve fool was going to help their case somehow lmao. it got so bad that i had to turn reblogs and comments for that post off completely. and since then i have lived in fear of them. anyways happy 2024 i will never make that mistake again

just finished the newest pjo episode and oh my god no one talk to me. percy, who just discovered he was a demigod mere days ago, immediately ready and willing to switch places with annabeth and die in her place so that she and grover could continue on? despite the fact that he’d just said he could never see himself being annabeth’s friend? the fact that he had a choice to go on with grover and instead chose to protect a girl he met a week ago and his best friend? and he’s making this choice at just twelve years old? i’m gonna curl up in my bed and sob for hours over this i am Feeling Many Things right now
