📌 + threads!
Hello, my name is T’uhl! I’m an aspiring neurosurgeon with a passion for art and Star Wars! When interacting it is preferred you use tone tags, but idc if you do or don’t, I might misunderstand what you’re saying though!
I can’t believe it’s come to this, but Osha and Mae’s hair are identical because that’s how dreads work. You grow them in the same style for YEARS. If you’re outside the black culture please do not speak on this subject and say it’s an inconsistency
Star Wars High Republic characters as foods, a thread 🥞✨
(Feel free to ask for your fav if they’re not in here)
Starting off with Avar Kriss as honey ham rolls
Here it is: What is aromanticism, asexuality, it’s spectrum, and fandom spaces 🧵
What I won’t go over:
• Queerplatonic relationships
• Hypersexuality
The first and possibly most important thing I wish to say, is that aro / ace individuals are apart of the LGBTQ+ community
I hope the THR fandom knows that when the Acolyte releases the general populous of the sw fandom will know about THR and an ungodly amount of dudebros will be hitting the timelines, I’m not ready to deal with this again 💀
!!!BEST CHISS FINALIST!!!
It’s official! Eli N. Vanto is the BEST CHISS CHARACTER!! 🎉🎉🎉
For those who wanted the characters who lost the first round to go again, feel free to participate in the bonus round below!
Consistently this fandom has shown blatant disregard / distaste for anyone who isn’t white, for anyone who isn’t upper middle class and higher, for anyone that has differing opinions on characters / writing, for lgbtq (specifically bi and aroace rep), but what I want to

Why is representation important??
I know that this seems like an easy thing to answer, but it has become very apparent to me that people in this fandom struggle to understand what /good/ representation is. So I shall explain in this thread why it matters from a personal

Tbh someday I’m going to write an essay about how, whether Timothy Zahn knew it or not, Thrawn is such a well written example of the minority experience and why that makes Thrawn’s characterization so hard to nail and so misunderstood outside and within his fan base.
We don’t talk enough about how Chiss are masters of disguise and mimicry, their vocal range is described as better than humans so….Chiss spies making a whole new face from clay makeup, mimicking the voices and behaviors of whoever they want, that’s so scary 😭😭😭
Y’all I just wanted to update, I got more info on the wookieepedia situation (this will be a mini thread)
An oomf of mine received these dms relating to the old wookieepedia admin Jordan
Ar’alani saying “You were sent to the Empire to learn about it, not to join it.” Feels a lot more painful now than it probably would’ve been without the show
The hell with comfort characters, who’s the one character you would totally beat the crap out of if you had the chance???
this mofo is the root of all my problems actually
The countdown to TEMPTATION OF THE FORCE continues w/ the CORRECT Cair San Tekka by Ario Anindito. Cair is “a spy, a musician, a secret husband, a security aide, a secretary, a punk kid, a troublemaker, a pilot, and now a smuggler and freedom fighter.”

Idk what to think on this whole wookieepedia situation, other than a service that’s built by fans should also be for the fans. If the old admin was genuinely fired for standing up against the “fandom menace” and helping raise money to support LGBTQ+ fans then I’m deeply appalled
If it wasn’t obvious already, I’m Afro-native. I will never be a safe space for anti-blackness or any racist behavior, do NOT come messaging me with that bullshit
Our statement regarding recent events involving Wookieepedia's social media team & administration. We are aware there are statements from other parties involved, and we disagree with their interpretation of the events.
This thread is incredibly harmful. Pansexuality, bisexuality, omnisexuality, etc. all exist and exist in a harmonious relationship. To some, all of these are the same, but to others the other terms such as being pan or omni matter to them and helps them express their sexuality
Finally completed the Kildo request! I ran out of space in my bio for more characters, but I am the second biggest Kildo fan ‼️‼️ Anyways, I’m so excited for Escape from Valo by

@crashwong
! TWO DAYS LEFT YOU GUYS
The Best High Republic Character Competition is here!!!!
Ya’ll, this is the longest post I have ever made. It has 64 participants!! Please bear with me as I make every poll and be sure to scroll through everyone when I’m done! Your fave might be at the end! Good luck everyone!
SCREAMING AND SHAKING I GOT MY SIGNED OUTBOUND FLIGHT COPY FROM TIMOTHY ZAHN 😭😭😭 he came back into the store to put his favorite Thrawn quote per my request I am so so so so so so grateful (someone who knows this quote tell me though because I cannot read his writing 💀)
It’s criminal how little content we have of Indeera and how little we talk about her 😭😭 I love her so much!!!! Her mobility chair is everything to me, it’s so cool!!!
I feel like it should be said that 90% of the Vernestra discourse stems from people not acknowledging that she has done shitty things and not accepting her with her actions in canon. Perfect Vernestra who is always in the right simply does not and will not exist
BEST CHISS CHARACTER COMPETITION ROUND ONE IS HERE!!!!! 🫐🔥
Ignore the middle portion of the chart I ran out of room, but this first round is suuuuper long so please scroll through all the replies! Your faves might be at the very end!
Good luck everyone!
I forgot to make an art post but HAPPY
#MayThe4th
!!!! I have never completed a single piece of Star Wars fanart for an official character outside of this Kildo piece!
What if we all remember that in canon Vernestra is capable of making egregious mistakes. Remember in Defy the Storm when she maimed a woman so badly she could only squeak in response to her pain? That it was more ethical to just k:ll her? Remember when Vernestra
Anyways. Belittling this genoc:de and believing that a colonial state has equal rights to the land as indigenous people is continuing the beliefs of Z*onism. It wasn’t /just/ about their friends in 🇮🇱. They’re not the only one with friends there, but I don’t spew this.
Remember when Russia declared war on the Ukraine and everyone was aware that it wasn't the russian grandma nextdoors who decided to invade the Ukraine?
Just because someone has Israeli family does not mean they support Genocide. Worrying about your friends and family in
(1/3)
Aromantic people can:
✅ Be flirtatious
✅ Have a desire/wanting for a relationship
✅ Form deep emotional connections with friends
✅ Desire affection, physical intimacy, have crushes or “squishes”
✅ Cuddle, embrace, nap together with, hold hands with friends
@just_jayd3n_
Old admin (Jordan) was apparently replaced/fired after raising $3k for the LGBTQ+ community. The person who replaced the old admin is a z:onist whom is unfollowing everybody who had association with Jordan
Guys I just realized that when Grant Griffin was telling me he was finishing up a painting really quick before mine in an email he sent me, HE MEANT THIS FUCKING COVER 😭😭😭😭😭 XNXNXNXNX
Emphasize is my first point, the lack of care for any non white person. More of you showed up and supported a fucking website over real life gen0c:de. I don’t care if your account is dedicated to Star Wars content and don’t want to be “political.” There is NOTHING
