What Is Star Wars, If Not Found Family In Like 37 Different Fonts?

What is Star Wars, if not found family in like 37 different fonts?

Star Wars is just about characters randomly adopting little kids and I am here for every single second of it

Oh and that’s not 10,000 fully trained active Jedi, that’s 10,000 Jedi total. Hell the entire order has less members than the CPD(Chicago police who have around 12,000 officers according to google.)

This is why the Jedi have to obey the Senate. They literally cannot do much of anything without the Republics cooperation. Things like slavery don’t exist because the Jedi are just fine with it, they literally could do little to take it down even if the entire order was dedicated to it.

And the Jedi are not in control of the Senate or lobbyist, their just a religious order that gives its services to the Republic. Blaming them for the Galaxy’s state is the utterly absurd.

Jedi Per Capita

Coruscant (>1 trillion people) has less Jedi (10,000) per capita (0.01 ppm) than Marvel New York (~10 million people) has Spider Man (1) per captia (0.1 ppm)

You know, just for scale.

But the Republic doesn’t just expect Jedi to solve Coruscant’s problems, they expect Jedi to solve the entire Republic’s problems. (at least two orders of magnitude larger)

And certain so-called fans expect them to solve not just the Republic’s problems, but the entire galaxy’s problems. With no legal backing.

You know comparing the sheer amount of attention and vitriol directed at Lil Nas over a relatively harmless video by Christians compared to the attention directed at child abuse scandals in the church really does not reflect well on Christianity tbh.

Like I’m not saying that clergy abusing their power is the fault of all Christans, but like you would think members of the clergy actually abusing children would be seen as a far greater sin than a music video showing Satan getting a lap dance.

Okay so spoilers for Light of the Jedi:

Near the end of the book Jedi Master Loden Greatstorm has been captured and is being tortured. How? By torturing others around them. I just found this so telling about how much the Jedi do care about others.

The Jedi care about people. They care about them deeply. Feeling them in pain and not being to help is literal torture for them.

This is why I don’t get how some seem to think their super detached from average citizens. We see time and time again Jedi throwing themselves between innocents in danger. It’s such a trend the Empire used it to identify them because they know a Jedi will always be compelled to protect others, even if it cost them their life. Protecting others is literally one of their main purposes in life.

Oh would you look at the time! It’s feel o clock!

Good evening I am thinking about Jedi.

I'm thinking about Cal Kestis and Cere and Ezra and Kanan and Ahsoka and the couple dozen other Jedi who likely survived into the empire and took padawans or protected force sensitive children.

I'm thinking about rogue Jedi on the outskirts of the rebellion fully aware of the good they could do while knowing the sheer hell that might be unleashed on the rebels they meant to help if the empire discovers that they harbored Jedi.

I'm thinking about these people who can feel emotions who want desperately to help and knowing that, for the sake of these rebels they cannot. That the best help they can give is to remain apart.

I'm thinking about Jedi who never knew anything but running from the empire. Who can't remember a time when being the way that they were wasn't a death sentence.

I'm thinking about Luke being told he is the last of the Jedi. About Luke sitting alone and feeling the weight of the universe settling on his shoulders thinking "I'm all there is." and how can one man, even one man with the rebellion and his sister to help him, protect every force sensitive child in the galaxy. Because Leia told him about the inquisitors and how can he ensure that never happens again.

I'm thinking about Luke slowly getting word out about a school, about a new Jedi order, about a safe place for force sensitives. A new home.

I'm thinking about the survivors hearing about it and refusing to believe it for weeks - months - even years. The empire has done this before. And how can they be sure the empire is dead, that the new republic rising in its place will be any different.

I'm thinking about Luke and Leia and Han making a home for street children and those who were shunned or abandoned or abused because they were different, because towns, families and planets quickly realized that to be force sensitive under the empire was to bring the wrath of the emperor down on you.

I'm thinking about Ahsoka stepping into this new Jedi school and having to steady herself against the walls because this place is alive and she can feel a dozens of little stars already present, presided over by twin suns. Its almost too much after so long.

I'm thinking about ragged freedom fighters who have long abandoned hope of ever being with anyone who understands being welcomed warmly by a man who's force signature is warm and steady and kind and feeling his grief and realizing suddenly that their own is bearable again.

I'm thinking about Cal nearly falling to his knees when he sets foot in the courtyard because he feels Safe here and it's been so long. He's been running for his life for almost 3 decades but this place is Safe and he's almost afraid to come any closer because what if he ruins it.

I'm thinking about the Jedi who gave up the title because all it brought was pain, breaking down when they see the children safe and happy, hovering small stones in the air.

I'm thinking about Ezra making his way back from wild space to find the empire defeated and to find Jedi. Not just Ahsoka but a new order and as Ezra finds his rebel family, and connects with the jedi he realizes just how large his found family has become.

I'm thinking about Luke realizing he is not the last. Not truly. He opens his home and his table and the boy from Tattooine. The one who longed for more as he watched his friends leave his desert town one by one - he is never lonely.

I'm thinking about Leia finding comfort among the survivors who know what the gaping nothing in the force feels like when you watch everything you ever loved destroyed before your eyes. How she protects this place and these people even as she remains part of the new republic.

I'm thinking about the new Jedi growing up with the survivors. About the new order built on the creed of empathy, justice, and love like the one that came before.

And I'm thinking about these psychic space wizards who can feel each other's pain, who could bring star destroyers to their knees if they lost control. I'm thinking about the Jedi finding each other in the ruins of what could have been, in the smoking rubble of the empire and saying "You're alive too? I thought I was the only one."

Okay so I was thinking Beauty and The Beast takes place in the mid 18th century. And Belle is like 17 and Adam is like 21 or something(too lazy to fact check that.) So there is a chance they lived to see the French Revolution. Gives us that sequel Disney.
