Thinking about how finding Lira San and living on Lira San are probably two vastly different things for Zeb.
Maybe that's why we're seeing him Doing New Republic Stuff in 9ABY, because actually returning to the progenitor homeworld of your people is probably a kind of cold comfort when those people are dead? (I mean, I have Additional Thoughts on what he might have going on, but.)
Because sure the lasat on Lira San are also his people, but we actually don't know how long ago Lasan and Lira San split or what the reasoning was or how different their cultures become over time. So, yeah, finding Lira San was great - but living there might be the freaking worst sometimes?
Like idk what if the written language is too different to read and they don't use Basic because they're so isolated why would they? Or Lasan had a royal family, but maybe that's because the royals were exiled from Lira San which is now under a vastly different kind of government and everyone thinks royalty is weird? What if the Boosahn Keeraw is considered an "outdated" warrior philosophy by Lira San standards and being there is an awful reminder of being the last of his kind in a different way?
Just ๐๐๐ MUCH TO CONSIDER!
That video of Alex Hirsch reading S&P notes for Gravity Falls conveys a few things to me:
1) the U.S. entertainment industry (especially animation) is run by older conservative types who make up offensive terms and get really mad about them.
2) the people who run Disney would be the first to fall in line with a fascist regime.
3) most of the media we consume is tailor-made and watered-down to appeal to the tastes of older, deeply religious conservative audiences.
4) conservatism, not the left, is and always has been the biggest voice of censorship in American culture.
Need you guys to know I am soooo anti generative AI. In case that wasn't clear. It's bad for the environment, unethical, theft, and will never be as freaky as me. It is inferior in every way
Luke teaching Ben at his peaceful Jedi academy, "use the force to center yourself" vs. Ezra teaching Jacen in their mom's garage, "ok kid, I'm gonna fire at you and you're gonna dodge and if anything happens we're blaming Chopper".
I do appreciate Kallus's realization that he actually is very wrong in how he approached things. That all the Imperials Zeb has met have tried to kill him, and thus can be judged the same. That's when Kallus's mind changes, imo. When he offers to hold Zeb's bo-rifle without the intent to kill him.
He's determined to prove to Zeb that not all Imperials are bad, and consequently ends up not remaining an Imperial lol.
Do you ever think about Hera with terrible postpartum depression. Do you ever think how she felt saddled with the child of her dead lover. Alone to raise him in a galaxy in the thrushes of war. Her at the front lines. Do you ever think about all the people who looked down on her for being a pregnant general. Do you think she ever felt resentment towards Kanan for leaving her with a whole living organism growing in her body. What do you think her view on pregnancy and carrying children was like before jacen? DO YOU THINK ABOUT THAT???????
dnp made me believe in love so hard that now, i see a married couple and iโm like โyeah, but they donโt have what dan and phil haveโ
If i see one more drawing where Kallus' waist is smaller than his head i am going to commit an actual crime
