#tech felts

[moonstrider9904]

Never really thought I was going to fall into the "Tech Lives" theories, not because they annoy me or they're invalid (in fact they're not, theories and speculation are fair game), but because I tend to theorize and be wrong. I think the term delulu was born because of me.

But when CX2 says "Who are you?" I fucken felt that. "Domicile" who tf uses that word other than the most intelligent clone in the universe? The way he walks?! Reminiscent, to say the least. The emphasis of when CX2 was around Phee? The premonition Hunter felt when he arrived at Pabu?

Sorry folks but I think I'm officially in the Tech Lives camp. I'm ready to accept reality if it turns out he's not alive anymore but HOO CHICKENS it feels like he is.

Echo's first mission with the batch probably solidified the fact that these idiots were children and needed 24/7 supervision

I'm imagining stupid shit like-

Echo, into his comm during a covert mission: Hunter, whats your status?

Hunter, responding: oh im already in the building

Echo:

Echo: what?

Hunter: yeah, Tech let me in like five minutes ago, we're in position

Echo, distressed: why did you TELL ME????

Hunter:

Hunter, the Sergeant™️: tell you what?

And another

Echo: Wrecker, watch your footing, especially with that bomb

Wrecker: nu-uh, Hunter said the ice was only—

Wrecker: falls on his ass

Echo:

Wrecker:

Echo: did you arm the bomb BEFORE you started walking on the karking river?

Wrecker, scrambling to get up: yes please don't tell the others-

I've got like a million of these

Tech, after they crash landed: hey quick question

Echo: what is it?

Tech, pointing to the massive puddle of blood at his feet: is that yours or mine?

Echo:

Tech:

Echo: what the actual fuck

Tech:

Tech, actively bleeding: so is it mi—

Echo: YES ITS YOURS WHAT THE SHIT—

Crosshair isn't safe either

Echo: Cross, give me cover fire!

Crosshair: no

Echo: I- what??

Echo: why not????

Crosshair: don't feel like it

Echo:

Echo: you don't feel like it?

Echo: you don't feel like doing your job?

Crosshair: nope

Echo:

Echo: how the FUCK have you guys stayed alive this long

He needs a drink. Several, actually.

the fact that the batch got their happy ending, they got to grow old on Pabu and finally choose what they wanted to do with their lives…except for Tech. I’m SICK rn

"goodnight my dearest friend"

poem in the first image by me. a small memorial for my digital camera that has slowly broken down after years of love & was finally put to rest today

(rip little red, 2009ish - 2024)

i honestly wish bow had more depth to his character than just being the “friendship guy” or the mom friend. like he’s part of the main trio and somehow he’s one of the most underdeveloped characters in the show. i think it would have been really interesting if they explored bow’s relationships with his dads and his fear of letting them down, in more detail, than just cramming it into one episode and calling it a day.

#it would have been interesting to see how this kind of parenting affected him #obviously his parents loved him but there was still the burden of expectations #would have been an interesting contrast with adora who was also burdened with expectations but from people who abused her #similarly i wish bow played a bigger role in the war overall #it always felt like he was pushed to the back and just aimlessly shot arrows #or did some unimportant tech stuff #spop bow #spop critical #spop salt #spop #spop discourse #spop criticism #she ra #anti spop

Errr.... a very self-indulgent sketch on this fine OC Sunday 😅

It's Tech and Silvie, happy ending edition.

[weirdest-lights]

It's my own opinion but the more I watch the new season of the Bad Batch the more I feel like Tech's death was just cheap.

In a series focused on the Bad Batch, we saw more Rampart and Emerie than Echo . An integral member since the beginning.

So what if killing of Tech was just another quick way to get rid of a character they wouldn't have had time to write a role for? I mean, they barely talk about him and we never get to see anyone's reaction to his death.

It just feels like killing him was a way to get rid of a character easily to focus on others or just to make more drama in the new season.

"Oh Tech isn't here to do that so I guess we're going to have to risk our lives for this things."

"If Tech were here it would be easier but since he's not, guess we're going to have to take the long road !"

#personal #red's rambles #star wars #the bad batch #sw tbb #tbb #tech tbb #tech bad batch #tech the bad batch #I really don't like how they keep setting up plotlines but focus on others things instead #Like the whole Emerie episode ?? It just felt like a good excuse to show us how actually Emerie isn't that bad cause look ! #she cares for kids !! wow. even then she just does as she is told. #yeah sure she was brought up like this. so were the clones and they still questioned stuff #hopefully the next episode will be 2hours long cause otherwise no idea how they're concluding some stuff #my opinion #killing off the explicitly autistic character only to never talk about him again feels extremely cheap #tbb season 3 #tbb season three #tbb season 3 spoilers #? #arc trooper echo #echo #tbb echo

honestly the debate about whether feyre was qualified or not to be high lady wouldn't be such a big deal if the story stopped trying to frame her as the best at everything. it's ok if the only reason she is initially made high lady was to make her rhys' equal in the sense that he does not hold more power over her, and technically, legally, cannot command her, or force her to do anything. she's his mate, so he feels comfortable doing that very early on into the relationship. it's a statement of his love and trust of her, or rather, his respect of her as her own person. but as @ofbreathandflame elaborates on here, it doesn't actually say anything about feyre herself, and to claim that she has done something to earn being high lady causes problems and conflict, because, well, she didn't. she didn't earn the title at all. there are qualities she possesses that may give her the potential to be a good leader, but she is not there already.

and then of course there's the problem that even if the story focused on rhys 'making feyre his equal', there's still confusion, because she fundamentally is not his equal. and it's never elaborated on because sjm can't without highlighting the contradictory nature of it all, but rhys did not arbitrarily become high lord because he earned the support and was sworn in. it's not clear when a high lord begins his reign officially, but it's implied that it starts when the magic 'chooses' them. the magic chose rhys, not feyre, and that fact will always mean that he holds some level of power over her. and that's a whole other topic with no real solution, but i don't think it would be as much as a problem if the story didn't try so hard to insist that that dynamic did not exist at all.

and to be clear im not trying to criticise or shit on feyre, this is more in defense of her than anything. girl deserves better than being lied to.

kind of expected that the ability breakdown wouldnt get that much traction (especially on twitter bc if it doesnt do well in the first few hours it might as well be dead) but what i didnt need to wake up to was looking at my twitter notifications and thinking there was a long comment on it at first but then i read it and it turned out to be some guy having dug up one of my old totk tweets where i talked about how zelda was treated-

and if a quote retweet with a thread attached already starts with "this entitled brat didnt understand that zelda was being a history nerd by being in the past and getting to experience it herself" with two screenshots attached of the end of totk with zelda staring at the cam all uwu (which has ??? to do with their point??) i dont even want to know what else was in that thread

if thats how the majority of the fandom is then im even less surprised that nintendy doesnt even have to try to write anything good :I

ah yes, i am a game nerd, and by putting me in a game where i stand around doing puppy dog eyes while being shoved around by NPCs is me being a game nerd OBVIOSULY

#ganondoodles talks #zelda #sorta #like ok im not saying you cant like the game ffs #but acting like everything is perfect and anyone who dares speak something critical is a heathen and must be PUNISHED or PROVEN WRONG- #-is so godammn annoying #just went on their profile to block and of course it was all screenshots of totks ending with uwu zelda and shirtless cool guy link #also find it interesting that zelda has always been a history nerd now #didnt know interest in shiekah tech and ... frogs? counted as historian #and dont get me wrong it would fit her being interested in that too but the way it was done in totk felt so artificial #like doesnt she say she read in a book that the king who founded this hyrule was called rauru and all that? #like ........ how did that even happen #a book that mentions him BY NAME surviving for WAY OVER TEN THOUSAND YEARS just convenietnly materializing or what #how the hell did that survive when next to nothing did of the ancient shiekah #(granted you can make the argument that the -other- ancient king of hyrule that persecuted them destroyed most of their stuff- #-which would make sense and im rolling with that too but you get my point??) #but raurus shit was even older than shiekah stuff like ......... ok???? how convenient she now suddendly is interested in nothing but #-that and also read a book about it!!! somehow!! #also how does something like that exist but then the sonau where pretty much non existent and irrelevant at all in botw #and even what we had was ACTUALLY done ..by hylians as a tribute to rauru you seeeeeeee #and the botw sonau style was the hylians work .. even though the totk sonau style aligns more with hylian than botw sonau.. #if the hylians were so grateful to rauru they built giant stone monuments as a tribute for him that didnt even fit their style- #-why was that the only stuff that survived on the surface ... wouldnt it make more sense that they would maintain the og sonau stuff instea #sure the temple ... castle .. whatever went up into the sky and whatver SOEMEHOW but not everythign did and it was everwhere #but then the stuff left on the surface crumbled away while everything left to rot in the underground and sky is just .. fine #what #also ... where did their castle go anyway #like ... we only see the -new cooler sonau- temple of time on the plateau but its interior doesnt match at all with the throne room #so where was all that #funny it wasnt in the same place as hyrule castle

i need to learn how to be self sustaining or whatever the way technology is advancing. not even in a paranoid anti civ kinda way just the fact that all these advances are being made by fucking silicon valley tech bros who want every single item in your home to have an internet connection and a subscription service and they want ai to control everything so they don't have to do all the hard work and combatting the loneliness pandemic by giving everyone an ai girlfriend and wearing stupid fucking goggles on your face so you can always constantly be connected online and the near constant bombardment of advertisements everywhere fucking everywhere i hate this shit so much i hate smart devices i hate ai i hate the future I WANT OUT OF IT ALL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

#sorry i'm just. having a moment #everything felt so magical during the tech boom of the 90s #we felt the possibilities were endless when we were able to connect to each other around the world #but this? this is different and a thousand times darker and i hate all of it

SPOILERS FOR BB 3X08

I've been seeing people talk about the new episode, when it comes to Phee and her line about Tech.....I feel some people are misinterpreting it a bit? Or at least singling her out.

Yes, sure, the name drop was a bit weird. But it was no more weird than the other tech name drops.

The air surrounding Techs death has been weird and dismissive in some ways by the show as a whole. All of the characters have been acting like it didn't happen, until they drop a line and give a pout and then carry on with the conversation. That's been something that *all* the characters have done, not just Phee. Singling her out feels unfair.

And when it comes to what her line was, the context. I don't think she was acting like she was all of a sudden incapable without Tech. I think it was more acknowledging the fact that they probably wouldn't have had to turn to Phee to find that information if Tech was still alive. Tech was well versed in these subjects, I half expected him to pop out with the answer when they first asked about the M-count. So I don't think she was doing anything other than acknowledging Techs abilities. Because they don't have that anymore. They don't have someone with a well of knowledge that can give them an answer then and there or with a couple of taps on his data pad. They have to go to other people, use other resources.

With her tone about the whole thing though? We don't know much about Phee. Different people grieve in different ways. I'm sure if she had shown more sadness at it people would've also had something to say. And it's not necessarily like she lost a long term lover, so, while there was chemistry, the reaction may not be what you might expect from her. And I mean....they were in the middle of an important conversation and she was clearly pressed for time anyways.

#But please #stop singling characters out. The reaction to Techs death has been weird.....across the board. #I don't know if they're not showing much grieving because they're building up to a reveal #or if it was just general crappy writing #But whatever the reason #everyone is acting weird #And it might be a hot take #but I thought Phees line felt pretty normal in the whole context #the bad batch #the bad batch spoilers #the bad batch tech #the bad batch phee #star wars tech #star wars #star wars the bad batch #tbb tech #sw tbb #tbb spoilers #tbb
