i don't know why, but in the sparse five hours of sleep i got last night, my brain decided to plague me with dreams of lilia taking care of an elderly silver, up until the final moments of his life. i could hear silver's thoughts the whole time, and he was so absolutely inundated with shame and guilt it almost seemed like he was suffocating. he kept thinking over and over and over again that this all should've been the other way around. he should've been the one looking after his father in the twilight of his life. he should've been his aging father's rock, his safe place to land, his stalwart defender against a world so unbelievably cruel to its most vulnerable denizens. again and again his heart cried out in vain, it should've been the other way around.
as a child he had once wished - prayed, even, to the same force now threatening to reclaim his spirit back into its unconscious designs - for his father to live a long and prosperous life, and it was as though that very wish had backfired on him in a way he never could have possibly imagined
Noticing that some of the youngest Jedi younglings were afraid of the clones (bc fully grown men in armor who mostly wear helmets do seem scary to toddlers), the creche masters decide to get them some clone dolls & toys to take away that fear.
That meant that a whole generation of the youngest Jedi grew up playing with self-sown dolls of different clones from different battalions. And slowly the clones stopped being these big faceless men that are sorta around out there outside, but instead are the heroes of their playings and their friends.
A whole generation of Jedi children begging the older Jedi knights and masters to tell them about their clone battalion. A whole generation of children fighting over the clone dolls with the painting in their favorite colour.
A whole generation of Jedi younglings growing up hearing about how great and heroic the clones are, just like the clone cadets across the galaxy who are growing up hearing how great and heroic the Jedi are.
So my writing blog is and always has been a chill space for me to write want I want to read from my own brain, shoot the shit and share thoughts with peoples, and just... Be a fuckin respite, but I want to make something crystal clear:
Don't turn a blind eye to Palestine.
Don't turn a blind eye to Congo.
Don't turn a blind eye to Yemen.
I go about my day to day life the best I can, but if I sit and think about the state of things in the world for too long it fucking SHATTERS me. And it disgusts and freaks me the fuck out that people can disregard human beings going through crisis after crisis and LITERAL GENOCIDE with fucking platitudes, clutching to ignorance, and circlejerking apathy.
You don't have to be mother Theresa, but it costs you nothing to actually give a damn about humanitarian crises happening around you and to know that it's wrong and fucking abnormal.
I've been taking a simple break from writing mainly unrelated because I just wanted some time to myself regardless, but also because I couldn't just immediately go back to lighthearted shit with everything going on.
People with common sense would understand and probably wouldn't even question that, but hey, common sense isn't that common and people are fucking weird.
I'm not gonna stop writing, but I need y'all to understand that I'll post what I want on my own time and I'll have a fuckin heart first. Some of you should learn that lesson too.
I'm not mentioning anyone cuz at the end of the day I'll side eye whoever I want and I'm not the Morality Police, but what'd Renee Rapp say that one time? "If the shoe fits, lace that bitch up and run."
Not a single person free until we all are, it's that simple to understand.
Lara Logan | Child Trafficking, Murder, Organ Harvesting, And Unimaginable Abuse. Lara takes the gloves off and has a message for anyone who doubts the horrific acts and atrocities committed against children. 🤔
if i did a reread of the walking dead and wrote an essay on how aegon ii and carl are doomed to be the last man standing by their narratives, and what starts out as a sort of cool & nifty super power of always surviving turns into this horrific curse where everyone they know is dying around them & sometimes it’s their fault & sometimes it’s not but either way they can’t ever stop it until they’re sitting at the ending with nothing but their lone daughter to protect but so broken they can no longer connect to her and then their story abruptly ends-
would that be like the Most stupid, nerdy thing i have ever done in my life or
One thing I DESPISE in true crime videos is people in the comments trying to justify a crime. Epecially those done against children. Mental illness DOES NOT justify hurting someone else. You can be the most fucked up, abused person in the history of ever but it still WON'T cover for the pain you've inflicted upon others. Sexual assault, religious trauma, strict parents, self-consciousness; you name it, ARE NOT EXCUSES FOR KILLING SOMEBODY. ESPECIALLY A DEFENSELESS LITTLE CHILD WHO TRUSTS YOU TO TAKE CARE OF THEM! I feel like crying whenever I see a case like this. I feel absolutely 0 sympathy for molesters and murderers. Unless they have a serious disorder like schizophrenia or something else, then they should get the bullet. Seriously. And even if they have schizophrenia the responsibility and weight of their actions still won't magically disappear. You ended a life. The sole life that other person had. Your rights end when the other's start.
No one is coming to save you, so take responsibility for your own illnesses and treat them accordingly. Coddling perfectly able individuals is making this generation weak and people more deranged. Everyone is expecting a prince charming to come and rescue them, when that's far away from objective reality. I don't give a FUCK how mean your parents were and how much your own life sucks. Don't kill that fucking baby you stupid fucking bitch. If I could kill you myself I would.
Teenagers are perfectly capable of taking responsibility for their actions when they commit a murder. 18-year olds aren't retarded. I ABHORE this thing with "bleh bleh but muh underdeveloped brain bleh bleh muh literal child". No. Just a few decades ago these people went to war and were getting married. They are perfectly capable of discerning right from wrong and of committing heinous crimes. STOP INFANTILIZING GROWN MURDERERS.
I'm so afraid of the prospect of raising a child in this current atmosphere. People are so vile. I don't know what I'll do and I'm just 18 years old for heaven's sake. I think I'll pull a Kaczynski and raise them in a forest. God hormones suck.
