Looky Looky, Now There's Clone Trooper Armor For Me To Draw. 😊 Thanks To @tinytape For Finding This

I'm guessing that means Omega would be along the lines of, "Looks like a cinnamon roll, yet won't kill you despite being able to."

So there are these guys…

And then there’s Echo…

…who looks like he could kill you, could actually kill you, but still manages to be a sweet (albeit slightly crusty) cinnamon roll. 😍

You can't be "bitches" by yourself, the word is plural... but since I'm in the same boat, it makes sense.🤣

bitches be like “i love the bad batch.” No, you love the specific found family trope because chances are you grew up lonely with no friends and the fact that the bad batch members are all different and are accepting of differences feels like a big warm hug because you’re probably queer and/or neurodivergent and felt alienated because of it since a young age. It’s me, i’m bitches

Happy pride! Have some cryptids 👻🏳️‍🌈

Everyone else seems to have their soapbox lately when it comes to Star Wars and representation, so here's mine.

On Autism representation.

I can't think of many examples, but the two that spring to my mind are Thrawn and Tech from TBB. In my opinion, I think they are both done well.

I haven't seen much complaining about Thrawn, but the Tech posts have been rampant. Saying he's tone-deaf, unfeeling, robotic, and misses the point frequently. People have said that this is bad representation. The thing is, that is how Autism can present itself, especially in someone that has been more socially isolated. Something that Tech experiences. His social life is limited to the rest of TBB (which all have various aspects of neurodivergency themselves) , Kaminoans (who are an entirely different species and culture that are also isolated), and the other Clones (who have been shown to treat TBB badly).

I see so many traits in him that I see in myself, my family, and a friend of mine. All of these people fall somewhere on the Autism spectrum. Because that's what Autism is, a spectrum. Everyone experiences it differently.

-leg bouncing when he's anxious

-info-dumping

-meticulously collecting information about topics that he's interested in

-not understanding "it's a feeling" in relation to flying

-frustration when things aren't going according to plan and when the things they are supposed to do are interrupted

-seemingly tone-deaf direct comments on what he sees

-focusing on what's important to him and ignoring other things around him

Everytime he does one of these things, I smile to myself, because I feel seen. The reactions of others around him are so accurate as well. Hunter rolling his eyes/shaking his head. Wrecker saying "yeah yeah we know". I've experienced those reactions my whole life.

Before you criticize representation, and automatically assume that it's bad because it might not be perfect, consider the opinions of those represented. Not their family members, not health professionals, not what you think it is.

Also that ableism term you all like to throw around? Dismissing the experiences of those with the conditions you're critiquing because they don't fit into your narrative is far more ableist than the thing you think is bad.

Why is this so ACCURATE?🤣 To be fair, though, they are aloud (even encouraged) to care, they just have to put the good of all first... but this is still hilarious.

The Jedi code: No attachment! No romantic partners! No family!

Anakin sneeking off to meet up with Padme after a night out with the 501st, whilst hiding adoption papers for Ashoka: What attachments? No attachments hear!

Obi Wan sat on Cody's lap whilst waiting for a message from Satine: Be mindful of the code padawan.

Aayla removing herself from Bly's face for 0.5 seconds: What did you say?

Kit Fisto waiting to call Aayla and Bly so they can meet up for date night: You must listen to master Yoda, attachments are dangerous.

Ploo koon and Shaak Ti surrounded by clone younglins as they fill out adoption forms for the entire army: Emotions are not the Jedi way.

Depa Billap tucking Caleb into bed: You must learn to let go of your feelings.

Quinlan Vos in the middle of checking in with Aayla and having given Bly the shovel talk: Listen to Obi Wan, he's usually right.

Mace Windu sitting worriedly at medical waiting for news on his injured men: As Jedi it is are duty to follow the code.

I don't know if it's an autism but when I was a kid or even now I smile when looking at people, being around them or talking to them.

Sometimes it didn't happen but most often it did and I'd turn my back when passing by someone because I couldn't stop myself from smiling and laughing even though I didn't want to.

To this day I don't like looking at people because if that, and when I'm mad I can't express my thoughts correctly and end up smiling and laughing which bugs me because I don't want to smile and laugh.

This isn't something I've experienced, but it could be a trigger effect...your brain associates smiling with laughing... So any smiles can trigger laughter. But I can't say for certain.

Now that's some REAL high Fives.😆 My kinda guy.🍃😏

this man is having a blast on twitter

That back hand had no reason being that cool to watch!🤣
