Qui Gon Was Totally An Absolute Menace At These Conferences. Man Would Probably Show Up High As Balls

Qui Gon was totally an absolute menace at these conferences. Man would probably show up high as balls and give some totally batshit presentation about like prophecy’s and shit that would get him called a pretentious fuckwad at least once while Obi Wan dies in the corner.

I still want to write the fic where an outsider has all these preconceptions about what the Force is and then goes into a room with a bunch of Jedi who are tearing into each other like bitchy old academics.

“Ooh, look at Master Structuralist over here with his ever-so-deep ‘everything is attachment actually’ reading”

“I don’t want to hear that from someone who calls every new opinion ‘new depths of their relationship with the Force’”

“The Jedi Order is a social construct–”

“Could you stuff the po-mo and pick up a book once in a while? These aren’t new ideas! You are not a pioneer because you asked one question!”

“I think you could all benefit on more reflection on how our rooting in the Force is actually deeply sexual–”

“If I have to hear one more word about lightsabers being penis envy you are going to be one with the Force immediately.”

Aw man. Definitely going to be sad to see the M9 go. But I don’t want the cast to get burned out and I think this a decent stopping point and one shots can help close up some loose ends. Really excited to see the new characters in C3

[ID: A total of three tweets from Matthew Mercer @.matthewmercer which together read: “I’ve seen some folks asking if Campaign 2 of #CriticalRole is ending soon, and... the campaign is certainly coming to a close rapidly! This arc will conclude the campaign, but that doesn’t mean the story of the Mighty Nein ends as well. Not every question need be answered, and not every thread needs to be closed... such things are always ripe for the picking down the road (or in your home game). If Vox Machina’s story was any indication, this won’t be last we see the Mighty Nein. Please enjoy the ride, the moments that come, and the stories we all will tell together in these final sessions. Just know that there are many stories to tell. :)” /end ID]

Someone: prevents me from doing something in any multiplayer game.

Me: WOW bitch. Look at this fucking loser, playing the game like your supposed to.

BUDDHISM AND STAR WARS

“The problem is always that we mistake the idea of love for attachment. You know, we imagine that the grasping and clinging that we have in our relationships shows that we love. Whereas actually it is just attachment, which causes pain. You know, because the more we grasp the more we are afraid to lose, then if we do lose, then of course then of course we are going to suffer. Attachment says: I love you, therefore I want you to make me happy. And genuine love says: I love you, therefore I want you to be happy. If that includes me, great, if it doesn’t include me, I just want your happiness. And so, it's a very different feeling. You know, attachment, it’s like holding very tight. But genuine love is like holding very gently, nurturing, but allowing things to flow, not to be held tightly. The more tight we hold on to others, the more we will suffer." - Tenzin Palmo Jetsunma

“He turns into Darth Vader because he gets attached to things. He can’t let go of his mother; he can’t let go of his girlfriend. He can’t let go of things. It makes you greedy. And when you are greedy, you are on the path to the Dark Side, because you fear you’re going to lose things, that you’re not going to have the power you need.” - George Lucas, Time Magazine, 2002

"You got the dark side, the light side, one is selfless, one is selfish, and you wanna keep them in balance. What happens when you go to the dark side is it goes out of balance and you get really selfish and you forget about everybody … because when you get selfish you get stuff, or you want stuff, and when you want stuff and you get stuff then you are afraid somebody is going to take it away from you, whether it’s a person or a thing or a particular pleasure or experience. Once you become afraid that somebody’s going to take it away from you or you’re gonna lose it, then you start to become angry, especially if you’re losing it, and that anger leads to hate, and hate leads to suffering. Mostly on the part of the person who’s selfish, because you spend all your time being afraid of losing everything you’ve got instead of actually living." - George Lucas, 2010

Okay so random tangent, but whoever approved the idea for ST to just kill off the entire New Jedi Order and revert everything back to basically a New Hope deserves to be fired. Like there was so much potential and it was all wasted to basically repeat the OT but just like messier. I don’t hate the ST I am just so fucking disappointed.

Obi Wan and Yoda (along with pretty much every other Order 66 survivor) lost so much it’s painful. Please SW writers, leave the space monks alone.

man do you ever think about what a fucking travesty it is that poor yoda had to outlive the jedi order. my grandmother outlived her eldest son & it destroyed her. yoda spent 800 years outliving everyone he ever knew & then their collective legacy was utterly wiped out & he had to survive it. my god, this fandom does not give him enough credit for coming through that at all, let alone as well as he did. i'm fucking sad

Wh- Why would you do that to me. WHAT HAVE I EVER DONE TO YOU MISSMARTHANIGHTINGALE. WHAT HAVE I DONE TO DESERVE THIS. 

Also why do you think he died from 'old age' when he was so spry a mere 20 years prior.

Also don't think about his S6 arc and the visions he had of Order 66 and how it was already almost enough to make him shut down, and then he had to live through it again, for real, and live with the knowledge that he couldn't stop any of it, and still cling to the hope that victory 'for all time' would come.
