I’ve seen a few people asking why Thrawn would attack the New Republic – shouldn’t he join them and fix the system from the inside, or just go back to the Ascendancy? Why would he destabilize the galaxy further?
But if you think about it
Really, the only reason Thrawn needs is to believe that the New Republic is a threat to the galaxy. Which, well...
Thrawn joined the Empire to oppose the Grysk, because Thrawn believes in a strong military. Thrawn’s not good at politics, and deals with everything in military terms – remember the Lioaoin's economic issues? That’s why he got along with the Empire, and why he put up with all their crap. In Thrawn’s head, big military = big victory = stop bad guys = good.
Enter the New Republic.
What are they doing? Disarming. While there are still pirates, the Hutts, Imperial Remnants, and, of course, the Grysk nipping at their heels. In the midst of a tumultuous time, they are deliberately weakening their ability to meet the challenges ahead, and opening the galaxy to invasion. Says Thrawn.
It doesn’t even matter if they’re Grysk influenced or just stupid – it’s the same result. The galaxy loses. His people lose. Says Thrawn.
What do you expect him to do? Join them? Of course not – he at least knows he’s terrible at politics. And the New Republic is all politics – it would put him at a disadvantage, in a fight he cannot afford to lose. And it would open him to attacks on fronts where he has no power: trials for war crimes, possibly leading to execution – or worse. The Mind Flayer.
You think Thrawn would risk his mind?
Besides, better to ask forgiveness than permission, as they say.
And if you want something done right, do it yourself.
Conquering the New Republic would be better for everyone, Thrawn says. It would save the galaxy from annihilation, allow him to turn the resources of the Empire against evil, bring peace and order to the galaxy and beyond. He would keep all the good of the Empire, Thrawn says, while getting rid of all of the bad, Thrawn says – whatever that means to him.
For the greater good, Thrawn says.
Everything he’s done has always been for the greater good, Thrawn says.
The tragedy is that he believes it.

Context in which Luffy learns from Robin that a ships captain has the authority to perform a legal marriage and he immediately gets mad at Zoro and Sanji for not asking him to be the one to marry them. He obviously demands that they get a (temporary) divorce in order to "do it the right way".
Sanji: Do we have to?
Zoro: Unfortunately. Captains orders.
Sanji: ...but...nevermind. It's usless to fight this.
Zoro: It's only a little while.
Sanji: Still, we're actually getting a legal divorce.
Zoro: We'll be married again by the end of the day.
Sanji: I don't know why we didn't just wait for Luffy to do it in the first place.
Zoro: He didn't know he could. He only just now learned that Captains can officiate this morning.
Sanji: I guess, on the bright side, we get to be engaged again.
Zoro: I get to marry you a second time, that's not such a bad deal.
Sanji: You know, now that I think about it does this mean you're gonna propose a second time?
Zoro: I guess I should.
Sanji: Can I do it this time?
Zoro: Of course Curly.
Sanji: Alright then. Lets go get divorced.

Where: The Brooklyn Museum Status: Open
The glorified laundry attendant cleans up fine, he supposes. A nice little suit that he’d definitely not stolen from that multi-floor Macy’s in Herald Square. It’s easy when you already have a few shopping bags on you, and try on a few suits in a big armful all at once in the dressing room. His gold watch and gold chain are the rare pieces of shine, a touch of ‘expensive’ to make him look more like he belongs. And even if he doesn’t belong in some tight-ass event with waiters and busboys and a band... he loves pretending he does.
His third glass of wine tastes as good as the first. He’s keeping an eye on his colleagues, mostly if they ever need backup. His fists are perpetually scabbed, itching for a fight. But everyone’s just chatting. A bit boring. He leans back against the bar counter. “Sheez. I’ve never seen so many people drooling over statues from... what, 100 years ago? My grandma’s older than that. Put her on display.”

One of my coworkers gave me a sympathy card with a check, which was really thoughtful... But it also had a religious pamphlet and the memo on the check said 'for the glory of god' so it low-key reads like he's trying to bribe me to come to Jesus
And it's just like... Honey no. I escaped god once, we are not doing that again

"King Rhoam did nothing wrong."
Yeah, right. How about causing the Great Calamity to happen in the first place?
You know how they were excavating underneath Hyrule Castle looking for those pillars with guardians in them? You know what's also underneath Hyrule Castle? This giant stone spike that's keeping Rauru's seal on Ganondorf stable for thousands of years.
What if someone messed with the spike on accident while looking for the guardian pillars? That could lead to a "leak" in Rauru's seal. And that's where Calamity Ganon comes out.
All of this could have been prevented if Rhoam just excavated where the pillars actually were. Which was not at Hyrule Castle.
I don't think he was trying to do it, but that would be something to add to Rhoam's story.
I actually think he was trying to be a good father and a good king, and didn't know where to draw the line when it came to his daughter. On one hand, she's the princess, and has duties. On the other, she needs a father. So he might have messed up. But that's okay.
You also have to remember that our glimpses into Rhoam's life were through Zelda's perspective. And seeing that she was 16, yeah she probably hated authority and her dad. She's a teenager.

Fictober 2023: Day 1
Prompt: "It's not too late, let's go." Fandom: Mass Effect Relationship: Commander Lieutenant Natasha Shepard & David Anderson Rating: Mature (because Natasha has a potty mouth apparently 🙈😅) Warnings: Unhealthy Coping Mechanisms, Hangover, PTSD, Grieving Summary: Anderson approaches a reluctant and hostile Shepard in hopes of convincing her to come back to the Alliance after the Skyllian Blitz.
AO3 link: here. Preview below the cut.

"I have a proposition for you. Something you might find... interesting."
"If I let you tell me what it is, will you leave immediately after?" she asked sharply, trying to hide her growing curiosity.
"I've recommended you for N-school. You should be receiving the official invitation within the next few days. You'll have to complete your therapy, of course. But if you accept, we'll send you to the Villa in Rio for training. It won't be easy, and it'll be dangerous. If you finish the program you'll not only be part of the most elite group in the Alliance, you'll also be assigned to top covert missions throughout the galaxy," he explained in a business-like tone. Natasha met his gaze and slowly nodded her head, ignoring the wave of nausea the motion brought on.
"It's because of Elysium, right? My heroic triumph over the Batarians?"
Anderson nodded his head solemnly.
"I'm not the same soldier that held them off. It's been almost a year, Anderson. I'm not cut out for it."
"The way I see it is you've got two options here. You can choose to stay here and wallow in your grief and self-destructive behaviors. Or, you can get up, dust yourself off, and make Arthur's sacrifice mean something. You could do great things, Natasha. I've known that since I met you when you were just three years old." His tone was nostalgic, and calming. He always had a knack for knowing just the right things to say. "It's not too late. You can go on living."

Hey metaverse what’s the biggest thing you can teleport with?
Well, I’ve teleported with a lot of things, but it really depends on how far I’m going. I have to travel through the Timestream (my name for the shit between universes) and that takes energy. It’s like if you were trying to sprint in water.
However, the largest thing I ever teleported ANYWHERE with was a small car. It had some petty criminals in it, and I passed out as soon as I got back to my universe. I didn’t go that far through the Timestream, but it was still fucking awesome. I probably wouldn’t try it again, though. Or with anything bigger. Don’t want to pass out in a different universe, you know?
