Before TLJ came out, I knew exactly one (1) male Reylo. He was nice. He and his girlfriend ran (non-sexual) Reylo RP accounts on Twitter, which was how I knew them. He said even if Reylo didn’t happen romantically he believed it would still happen on a platonic level, somehow. I haven’t been in touch since before TLJ came out, so I have no idea what he thinks now, but I have not met a single decent male Reylo since then.

Heck, even I was a believer in “platonic Reylo” post-TFA. I was a Rey Solo theorist, after all, and wanted to see a Vader-Luke style reconciliation between them. But any guy who believes Reylow should be romantic after TLJ is a potential creep and I’m giving him wide birth.

In my Boba story, Boba escapes prison with Cad Bane and Rako Hardeen, and instead of Moralo Eval, there’s another Mandalorian (he’s the reason the group lets Boba escape with them.) When Boba finds out Hardeen is Obi-Wan a huge fight breaks out and he gets separated from the group, with no idea if the other Mandalorian is alive or not. Then they reunite when Boba assembles a team to take down Maul (a team that includes Boba’s girlfriend, Vader, a clone he was friends with on Kamino, and Qi’ra.)

So his fellow prison escapees join the team as well?

When no-fault divorce was legalized in the 70′s, the states that legalized it saw a decrease of 8 to 16 percent in married women committing suicide and a 30 percent decline in domestic violence.

(from @aisandetsarepeopletoo)

this is why worshipping the so-called “traditional family” is a load of fucking bullshit

I think a lot of people really don’t realize that the current divorce rate has nothing to do with degrading morals and is literally just that it’s both legal and more socially acceptable now than it used to be. The issues leading to divorce have always been there.

Free version of the article here

New York legalized no-fault divorce in the 1930s, after finding out that only allowing divorce on the grounds of adultery created a mini-industry of women pretending to be caught having affairs with married men.

I can’t add comments to @the-bi-writer‘s There Is No Redemption Here for whatever reason and asks are too short to contain my magnificent prose, so I’ll just put them here. This is for Chapter 6 (link):


Seeing how the description of Alia Ren in the last chapter scuttled my Keri Russell fancast I hurriedly replaced her with Naomi Ackie even though she’s probably too young to be a canon KoR. And then! This line:

“You have a weapon,” she hisses, responding to his thoughts.

reminded me of an amoral Maz, which in turn reminded me of Lupita Nyong’o, and that fancast upped the hotness factor of the battle SO MUCH that I’m tempted to change ships midstream 😂 So if this was not the image you had in your head while writing, I gift it to you in thanks for a great scene.

Anyway this duel was so neat!! I loved the decisive and deadly moves, the way the Force interacted with the combat movements, and even the ending with Lupita… er, Alia turning off her sabers midair. Her recruitment tactics are a bit sudden, but effective! Idk how much of a choice it really is, since Alia herself said it wasn’t optional, but I guess it’s more choice than Finn was ever offered before.

Continued for Chapter 7 of @the-bi-writer‘s There Is No Redemption Here, I’ll just go into stream of consciousness/liveblog from here. Spoilers, of course.

Further comments for Chapter 24, spoilers. The comment glitch comes up every once in a while and I think I should file a bug report with AO3.

Finn’s reunion with his family had me genuinely tearing up! I love that Snoke was right about the Galfridians and fighting fascists is just a given with them lol. I like how you used Finn’s old name Sam despite using the Finn Galfridian of Artorias motif from the EU, nice mix-and-match there. And as though I needed a reminder that John’s mom is a total babe…😍

I love the character Rhyssa has become! She basically doesn’t give a fuck anymore, it seems. I’m actually fairly sure Kylo wouldn’t care if he knew they’re plotting to kill him–he must be expecting it, much like he expected their escape. The cat and mouse game begins!
