Peace is a lie, there is only passion.
Through passion, I gain strength.
Through strength, I gain power.
Through power, I gain victory.
Through victory, my chains are broken.
The Force shall free me.

Behold some of the worst Star Wars takes you've ever seen.
"I love Star Wars!"
No you don't, Lily. Just like certain reactionary hacks, you hate Star Wars for the most idiotic reasons ever.
Case in point:
1) Lily decides to rewrite the sequel trilogy into angst-fest that over-worships the Sith as a misunderstood, persacuted race of people, turns classic characters like Luke and Leia into "old racist white folk" and of course, has her "heroic" character straight-up murder unarmed rich people!
Plus, as someone who adores The Last Jedi as one of the best Star Wars films since The Empire Strikes Back, Lily completely missed the point of the film! It doesn't need to be "fixed" as it's already a compelling deconstruction of Star Wars that challenges the notion of destiny and fixed traditions by having the characters grow through their mistakes: Like Rey learning she doesn't need to be related to someone special know where she belongs; Poe learning to stop and listen to other people's ideas; Finn learning about how other people are effected by the war; Luke learning not to give up on himself.
I get the feeling Lily's bitter because it didn't line up with her own bloated "SWTOR-and-KOTOR-II-are-the-only-SW-media-that-matters-and-the-Sith-are-the-real-good-guys" headcannon.
That and the real reason Lily hates Rose Tico is because she wasn't a sexy traumatized black lesbian with a high body-count. Because, let's face it, Lily didn't create Darth Amorosa because she wanted "diversity" and "representation". No, it was simply because she wanted a black woman to fetishize.
As promised! New Star Wars x Taylor Swift keychains are here! They’re super cute and go shakey-shake so they truly do double as stim toys for your gremlin brain. (Must please the gremlin brain.)
Mon Mothma is paired with “Bejeweled” ad appears in the shaker with her home planet of Chandrila and her Hana pendant from Revenge of the Sith.
Ben Solo is paired with “invisible string” and appears in the shaker with the Skywalker saber and his father’s lucky dice.
Poe Dameron is paired with “Anti-Hero” and appears in the shaker with his mother’s ring and his black X-Wing.
Finn is paired with “epiphany” and appears in the shaker with Poe’s jacket and his Glie-44 blaster pistol.
Nightsister Merrin is paired with “long story short” and appears in the shaker with her home planet of Dathomir and the Stinger Mantis.
Trilla Suduri is paired with “hoax” and appears in the shaker with her Inquisitor lightsaber and her TIE interceptor.
went thriftin again like before yesterday. sometimes when i feel really crummy i just go thrifting. an lately i feel reaaally really really crummy. anyway here's what i got.
Funko Mystery Minis Sheldon with a Superman shirt. yeah.
ID/image description: photo of a cartoony/stylized figurine of Sheldon Cooper from The Big Bang theory wearing a blue t-shirt with Superman's symbol on it on top of a light gray-ish long sleeve shirt with brown pants,and holding his 'Roommate Agreement'. he is placed on a bookshelf with books and comics visible behind him. end description.
now this is where the fun begins! in the treasure trove that is the mini figure bin i found:
a buncha Star Wars Micro Machines! all modern not vintage but still a jackpot! other than Finn an the Snowtrooper in their Speeder which are obviously from The Force Awakens,Obi-Wan an the rest of the ships are all from a Revenge Of The Sith themed set an it's almost the complete set save for a Grievous figure an Obi-Wan's Jedi Interceptor. pretty sweet even though it's a bummer that it's not the whole set!
ID/image description: photo of some Star Wars Micro Machines,tiny figures and vehichles from Star Wars,layed out on a wooden surface including micro figures of Finn and Obi-Wan,Grievous' Invisible Hand,a V-Wing,an ARC-170,a Vulture Droid and a Snowspeeder with two First Order Snowtroopers seated in it. end description.
and a whole bunch of 'Star Wars Command' figures an vehichles! Star Wars + army men is right up my alley an it's always a treat to find some of these. i've also been lookin for that Vader for so long!
ID/image description: photo of a bunch of classic army men style figures and vehichles from Star Wars layed out on a wooden surface. including Darth Vader,4 Rebel Snowtrooper pilots,3 Hoth Rebel soldiers,a Snowspeeder,2 AT-AT Drivers,4 Snowtroopers and 2 AT-ATs. end description.
Ngl I would’ve preferred smuggler/reluctant jedi Ben Solo teaming up with space husbands Finn and Poe to fight Empress Rey. Would’ve been a better story, change my mind.
