When Jo March said:

“Women, they have minds, and they have souls, as well as just hearts. And they’ve got ambition, and they’ve got talent, as well as just beauty. I’m so sick of people saying that love is just all a woman is fit for. I’m so sick of it! But I’m so… I’m so lonely.” 

& Céline said:

“I always feel this pressure of being a strong and independent icon of womanhood, and without making it look my whole life is revolving around some guy. But loving someone, and being loved means so much to me. We always make fun of it and stuff.” 

i don't wanna use dating apps. i want to meet someone on the train and have one incredible night walking through the city together. we don't exchange numbers but promise to meet in the same spot in exactly a year. we do.

Love how Episode 5 felt like Clone Wars not just because it was magical and psychological and everyone was being their slay-ass Clone Wars selves but also because of the emotional damage I missed that

I love these new Ahsoka behind the scenes photos

everything bad i said about the wigs in the ahsoka show i take back bc clearly they spent all the budget on anakin's wig and it's IMPERATIVE that had to look as LIFECHANGING as it was in revenge of the sith bc that LOOK created my first celebrity crush. i will allow party city sabine and jacen wigs for hayden's perfect ROTS look

honestly even though he said it in kind of a playfully insulting way, I think Anakin meant “you look old” almost as a compliment. He’s glad she’s old, it means she’s alive. She’s surviving. She’s aging gracefully. Compared to where Anakin was at that age, Ahsoka is thriving and I think he’s proud of her for that.

Me, before watching the newest episode of Ahsoka, so used to animated Ahsoka looking so, well, old: Dang, Ahsoka is such a girl boss, love her so much, you slay queen, go kick some droid and terrorist butt!

Me, after watching the newest episode of Ahsoka, it fully dawning on me that Ahsoka was IN FACT a child soldier: This is…a child. A kid. No. Why are you in war? Please, go home, live your innocent life, you don’t deserve to see all this. Please. On behalf of the ENTIRE Jedi Order, who owe you the biggest apology known to this entire galaxy, I am so, so, sorry.

Let’s talk about this:

This is heartbreaking. To have spent years rejected by a community/fandom and to have finally been embraced. I have always loved Hayden as Anakin and Vader. He’s always been perfect for the portrayal of these characters. But to see and hear that someone just wanted to be embraced, and waited 20 years for that. I wish Hayden had been loved more widely from the start. He deserves it. I’m so glad others are finally opening their arms to him, but I’m so sad it took this long.

being an adult is just dragging urself kicking and screaming to things that you will enjoy and that will be good for you

clenching my teeth and muttering under my breath "you'll be happy you did it you'll be happy you did it you'll be happy you did it" as I physically force myself out the door to go Do Things

being very firm with myself every time I think about bailing and saying "no. you committed to this. it will improve your quality of life. you will enjoy it. now put on your big boy pants and go."

Me: Why was Sabine being trained by Ahsoka? There was never an indication that she had force-sensitivity!

Huyang: Out of all the thousands of padawans I have trained… Sabine sucks ass the most. She is not very force sensitive.

Me: Oh, thanks Huyang!

One of my favourite bits of media history trivia is that back in the Elizabethan period, people used to publish unauthorised copies of plays by sending someone who was good with shorthand to discretely write down all of the play's dialogue while they watched it, then reconstructing the play by combining those notes with audience interviews to recover the stage directions; in some cases, these unauthorised copies are the only record of a given play that survives to the present day. It's one of my favourites for two reasons:

not devastated or elated by ahsoka (2023) but a secret third option (enjoying the experience of watching with fellow rebels fans and seeing favorite characters and places again while having mixed feelings about plot and character development, wishing it was a fully fleshed out longform animated series)

Yeah I love how unabashedly romantic hsmtmts is, it’s so refreshing having a girl put in a position between ambition and career or the boy she loves and her saying no I’m not choosing I get both, I get to have it all. It spits in the face of every cynical narrative out there and I’m so grateful and happy it was Gina Porter who got to be the face of that story.

I think it's funny that for S4 of HSMTMTS, the main characters are dealing with problems like "I can't decide which Ivy League school to go to" or "I can't decide between taking a once in a lifetime chance to be a famous movie star or staying with my high school boyfriend of like 3 months," or “I haven’t thought about college at all but my drama teacher somehow got me in anyway,” meanwhile EJ has been disinherited by his family and has to work multiple jobs to support himself and the show doesn't see that as interesting enough to warrant anything more than one line.

Like, EJ's problems are now on a whole different level than any other character, including S1 EJ, and Tim doesn't even seem to realize it.

you get assigned gay by kenny ortega. you then get assigned not gay by disney but they let you keep the fruity hats. you come back next year and get assigned gay by kenny ortega again, this time complete with a homoerotic dance sequence. you return again the following year and are assigned not gay by disney, this time accompanied by a heterosexual prom date. you return 15 years later and are finally assigned gay by disney because they now think it's profitable. you are ryan evans in high school musical.

He’s texting good morning and Dr. Burke is telling Christina that “the way he loves her is consuming”

April Kepner gives me hope that annoying, anxious, type-a, late to love girls will end up both hot and smart and with a hot and smart partner
