For me, a Kylo Ren redemption arc is so much more than a chance for Reylo to happen, and I’m sick of antis saying that’s the only reason we want that to happen.

Kylo Ren is realistic portrayal of an abuse victim. He’s not a timid little boy who’s been broken by his abuser or a valiant champion fighting to save others from what he endured, but he’s angry, hurt, confused, he lashes out, and he’s trapped. His ability to trust has been broken by the realization that his family’s lied to him and by that being exploited by his abuser. He’s desperate for some sort of control in his life to make up for the skewed power dynamic he’s suffered because of. He’s not an ideal survivor, but a realistic victim.

He’s done bad things, but the circumstances surrounding his actions aren’t entirely black and white. He’s been influenced by Snoke for a lot of it, and there could have been a million different triggers for his decision to kill Han, from mercy killing to fear of Snoke himself. We don’t entirely know what’s going on with Ren, but we have plenty of subtext to work with.

Snoke is an abuser. He’s been haunting Ren since his birth. He’s lied to Ren, exploited his pain and insecurities, turned him against his family, made him give up his name, and, this you can see in TFA, has tried to isolate him. Snoke is an actual abuser and an actual villain. He’s manipulative, dishonest, and cruel. To our knowledge Ren has never lied, he’s shown mercy, and he’s proven to be straightforward, if also erratic and irrational.

Snoke is the one I want to see destroyed. The creepy bastard deserves it. But Kylo Ren, the man who’s been tormented since fetal development, lied to by his family, forced to give up his own name, isolated from those who actually care about him, used for a goal he might not actually agree with, and abused by an alien with pale pink skin and a fucked up face, that’s the man I want to see saved. It’s not because I want to see him kiss and cuddle Rey, it’s because I want to see an abuse victim who’s shown the ugly effects abuse has on person, work past his trauma and recover. I want to see him get revenge on his abuser, and I want to see him get better.

The galaxy deserves Order. The galaxy? It deserves Supreme Leader

Light. Darkness. A balance.

It’s so much bigger

“What I really liked about fallout 4 was that none of the factions seemed inherently evil. I can understand all of them, the institute believes science is the future of humanity, the brotherhood wants to protect humanity from itself, and the railroad wants to help synths become people. This was a huge step up from new Vegas where the factions were more evil, good, or neutral.”

The railroad thinks computers should be equal because they look like people. I got a news flash. Just pull the plug and problem solved. The Minutemen are the only GOOD faction.

I have no celebrity crushes. Nobody accurately represents me. Where are the angry celebs who work in retail? That's a movie i'd watch.

Yes!

apparently destroying your partner’s expensive property is hilarious and not at all abusive

Apparently, you either didn’t see, or are ignoring the fact that women have destroyed their boyfriends gaming systems for sport. 

It’s just to point out the hypocrisy of it all.  

Hell looking at the picture provided you don’t know if it was a man or woman posting it, if they had any help from their partner, who stuff it was, and you can’t really tell if most this stuff is empty/old or not.

Probs bought those stupid things with the partners money anyway.

Stormtrooper FN-2199, or TR-8R, has such a rich history outside the confines of “The Force Awakens”, I’d hate to think that a crossbow blast to the chest is the end of his story arch permanently. Worse things have happened to Star Wars characters in the past only to be resurrected through clever writing. I mean Boba Fett escaped the Sarlacc pit with a broken jet pack through some mental connection, telekinetic bullshit he had with the Sarlacc itself, and Darth Maul lived on a literal garbage planet, after getting sliced in half, for years. Until his long lost brother came to get him, and he he got a robot bottom half from some cult lady, so I’m sure that they can write in some way for FN-2199 having survived the blast. Who knows, he could be the new, sort of ominous bounty hunter type character. Or not, because I think that Captain Phasma already sort of fills that position. Whatever I just want to see him twirl that baton thing again. 

(Also could someone superimpose the @buzzfeed logo on Han Solos face please?)

Baton twirling isn't unique. We don't need this punk back.

Tumblr scares me

I saw something I can’t unsee. Two laws of the universe were broken before me today.

1. The star wars prequels being universally accepted as utter trash, 2. Padme and Anakin being universally unaccepted as romantic, but universally accepted as poorly written, forced, and EXTREMELY abusive.

Tumblr is dumb.

This entire fucking site

Sadly, this never gets old.

Notice how if you’re a bully who loves guns (just like most cops), they treat you with respect and dignity. If you’re an actual patriot, trying to change the system and make the problems known they treat you like you’re less than human. I’m calling bullshit.

Or… or… the whole concept of owning a firearm to deter government tyranny is being proven true.

Note how Occupy Oregon isn’t trashing the location they’re at, defecating or urinating in public, acting like spoiled children, and looting and burning their town down OP.
