Hi #swtwt. My name is Nix. I am a long-time lover of #StarWars π§πΎπ
I've achieved the dream of a character named after me, in #StarWarsOutlaws
Star Wars is where I found: comfort & hope through dark times, shared joy & excitement, & it is truly where I have 'found family'. ππ
Update π’: I appreciate all of my followers & interactions on here, thank you so much for this.
I've decided to take a hiatus from social media platforms [including online dramas] to concentrate on real life matters for a while. ππ
- always, LOVE.x
Nice surprise to myself. π
I completely forgot I pre-ordered the ltd edn 7" vinyl Unconditional/Scream single from @FeederHQ!
No. 262 π«‘ Thank you G&T π€β€οΈ
The devastating news of Johnny Gaudreau & his brother Matthew passing is so difficult to process what happened ...it's just utterly heartbreaking.. πππππ
..may they both rest in peace.
@purplefi You gotta roll with it Fi! π Aww, I got everything crossed for you & your friend! I hope you score your tickets when they go on sale ππ€
Aww I hope the announcement is @liamgallagher & @NoelGallagher are just finally at peace with one another again as brothersβοΈβοΈ
An #Oasis reunion would be momentous if it's announced! Frankly it'd provide us all with much needed hope to actually see there CAN be 'peace on earth'
@FranCarlyon Ahh I'm so jealous Fran! That's like the ultimate 'bucket list' best way to see @MassiveAttackUK live on stage! I wish I experienced it, but I bet the gig was very awesome.
@StarWarsSession On my way to becoming an official #StarWars character! Hehe ππ
..I don't have the right gen console to play #StarWarsOutlaws, but I do hope everyone enjoys playing it!
@willowaz@StarWarsSession Ah thanks @willowaz ππ I will indeed need to experience how it is through your streaming & initial reactions of being among the first to check out gameplay! Hope you have fun with #StarWarsOutlaws
Haha π Thank you for this Steve @spoonywan - it's very awesome that both myself & @neelshah are now characters in #StarWars! π
Love to all our TRB family ππ€
I love the sincerity & truth of this 'state of star wars' comment by @300mirrors. It's very relatable to my own recent feelings about the choices/direction of the franchise.
For the record, I have always & still do love star wars very much but I wholeheartedly agree with Lily*π
Jokes aside. I'm part of the demographic The Acolyte was trying to hit. The direction Kathleen Kennedy was taking Star Wars was to appeal to women and, specifically, women of color so we can all see ourselves.
The truth is I've been a fan from as far back as I can remember. There was nothing wrong with Star Wars. I didn't want it to be more "girly," and I didn't want to "see myself" because it was great as is. I saw myself in characters like Leia, Luke, and Han.
I loved that the bad guys were so evil and cool looking, but at the end of the day, good ALWAYS defeats evil. There is no gray area like in modern Star Wars. George Lucas wanted it to inspire hope and give us heroes to root for.
Canceling The Acolyte was that glimmer of hope that maybe one day Star Wars would be back on a course familiar to those of us who loved it as it was.
Tl;dr I'm a woman of color and modern star wars sucks because they're trying to pander to me. Stop.
