"well, I don't watch Star Wars for the politics, Star Wars doesn't have to be political-"
THE TWO ARE INTRINSICALLY LINKED. THEY ARE INSEPARABLE. THE SPACE IMPERIALS ARE FASCISTS AND ALSO THE UNDENIABLE BAD GUYS. HELLO. ARE YOU STUPID.
anyway sound off. at what stage do ppl think Han figured out the Force was real. the boring answer is after seeing Obi-wan vanish but i think he could rationalise that away as his eyes playing tricks on him. what do we think.
Let me demonstrate my answer for you:
That's it. That's my answer. Endor.
Please just take a look at Han's face right after witnessing 3po float. The man just had his entire worldview blown to smithereens.
that's so funny. that means he accepted Vader deflecting a blaster bolt with his hand as just something freaky government cyborgs can do, and stuck by Luke for multiple years as he tried to figure this Force stuff out, and just treated it like your friend getting really really into neopaganism to cope with a loss.
like yeah kid good job with the witching. i'm certain it will be more useful against your enemies than your sharpshooting. no i do not think your witchcraft is supplementing your aim but i'm not gonna argue about it.
yeah Luke was like 'I heard Ben Kenobi's voice in my head telling me how to blow up the Death Star :)' and Han was like 'kind of an unusual coping mechanism but I'm not gonna argue with him'
saw someone describe Luke Skywalker as the 'bastard son of a sith lord' and i have to say i think Darth Vader would be VERY offended by that. like how DARE you imply Padme wasn't his wife??
I don't think it's fair to call him a deadbeat either. like the man started trying to have a relationship with his son as soon as he found out he existed. he was trying so so hard to have a father son relationship. yes he tortured his son's friends and yes he did also maim him but that's not important right now.

Hello! I am trying to get better at asking people about things they make regardless of itemized lists. Therefore:
Of your favourite characters, who do you reckon is most likely to
A) Start a pirate radio station
B) Accidentally be elected leader of a made up country
And
C) Buy a haunted house ?
This is so much fun, thank you 😂😍 I'm gonna go with...
A) Han Solo - just cause he's apparently all respectable these days doesn't mean he can't try and do something about the terrible music tastes of the new generation of space pirates. Kids these days, honestly.
B) John Sheppard, because then he'd be like "...damn it, not again. at least it wasn't a real made-up country this time I guess.."
C) .... Navani Kholin. If it is haunted it'll give her a chance to actually study these so-called 'ghostspren' that never have solid reliable records, and if it isn't haunted, well. Doesn't hurt to have a private getaway location for oneself and someone special for a little quality time, undisturbed.
There's also a call-in segment which inevitably devolves into him giving irritable advice on completely unrelated topics, odds are 50-50 that it'll be surprisingly insightful or the worst advice ever. It's impossible to tell which is which.
*You have to show your girl you love her in little ways. Like, the first time I met her dad I tried to shoot him in the face... That's not like blanket advice her dad is literally a Sith Lord. Please confirm your girl's relationship with her dad before shooting him. But that showed her that I would protect her and support her!"
no way bb8 ur so cool
Pablo Hidalgo was having a semi-breakdown on his twt yesterday because of people using words based on things that only exist in our world (milestone, dumpster, etc) and tbh this was so real of him he might be one of my favorite Star Wars creators
@tremendouskoalachild here!

this isn't even touching on how star wars invented an alien called "dog" to explain why a battle droid said "die jedi dogs" in attack of the clones
Wait are dogs not canon animals in Star Wars? Cats are. Like normal earth-style cats, not lothcats.
Sibling asked how ppl in star wars dance to jizz music and I had to give her an example
its literally not a typo,,,, thats what the genre of the music in the video is called in star wars canon
I fully understand that the preponderance of evidence is that George Lucas put absolutely zero thought into what Naboo’s culture was actually supposed to look like outside of what we see on screen, but as far as unintentionally effective worldbuilding goes, establishing that Naboo a. has a tradition of electing literal children as figurehead rulers of its planetary government, and b. apparently also has a tradition of assassinating these children with sufficient frequency that dressing up a bunch of other children as decoy targets has become standard operating procedure by the time of Padmé Amidala’s reign suggests that maybe the fact that this random backwater is a breeding ground for Sith Lords isn’t as unlikely as it initially appears.
#yes! this is what i’ve been saying! #i’ve always headcanoned that the reason they have child monarchs in the first place #is to try and discourage the assassination attempts #like #alright i know you’ve poisoned our last five queens #but this one’s an adorable child! #you wouldn’t poison a CHILD would you? #and even if you would no you wouldn’t #because ACTUALLY you’ve poisoned the decoy
#and like… headcanon part 2: if I were trying to discourage assassination attempts #you know who I’d recruit to be my handmaids and decoys? #that’s right: the daughters of my political rivals #you thought you poisoned the queen? #psych you idiot that’s the minister of finance’s niece #fuck it maybe that’s YOUR niece
#sure you haven’t seen her since the Queen ‘invited’ her to join the Royal retinue #but are you really gonna risk it? #better to just cool it on the poisonings for a bit isn’t it? #try out this fun new thing called ‘diplomacy’ i really think you’ll like it!
#and like– maybe they did cool it and Naboo as a society moved on from that era #and kept the trappings as a reminder of how far they’ve come #or maybe they didn’t and the whole system is just threats behind smiling faces #who knows! certainly not us outsiders! I’ve heard Naboo’s a peaceful society and very fond of diplomacy actually #and what a quaint little government they have! their queen’s fourteen i hear #how very… sweet (via @allogrim )
