R5-D4 , know to his friend's as Skippy, was a force sensitive astromech droid on Tatooine in the year 0 BBY.
Upon receiving a premonition of what would happen if Luke Skywalker and his uncle purchased him instead of R2-D2 he nobly chose to destroy his own motivator.
Let his sacrifice never be forgotten.

one of the most annoying guys in my class wanted to "debate" trans rights today
i shut that shit down real quick
:meow-knife-trans:
another one began complaining about bdsm stuff at pride
and when i wouldn't agree with him he tried to walk it back like "uuhhh... i think we can all agree that we don't want to see men in bdsm gear waving dildos around"
no actually, we cant!!!
i want to see guys with their cocks out at pride!
:gigachad:
Posting only to comment on how fucking exhausting the "be 100% cisheteronormative assimilationist or back in the closet with you" bullshit is every fucking year. Good job pushing back on this bs.
yeah same guy literally tried to make a distinction between the "normal gays" and the "Gay gays"
he said something about how "99% of lgbt people just want to appear normal, while the 1% ruin the "reputation" for the rest"
:meow-knife-trans: (imagine a bigger and scarier knife)
edit: i almost quoted from skam to him
Privilege and reputation are inextricably intertwined. Fuck reputation. It’s the root of all fragility and negative peace
yeah same guy literally tried to make a distinction between the “normal gays” and the “Gay gays”
literally the same exact thing as "I don't hate black people, I just hate n*s" except unironic. Jesus Christ
Insert quote from Wall Street guy who said that despite being gay, Trump would allow him to continue as he wanted, whereas Bernie would tax him higher, which was why he didn't think the choice was hard.
thn they shuld fuk th shutt up orr becom gai ef they cair tht much (asumin they r mayb reprssd idk)
ef they cant du tht thn idc
There are plenty of middle class assimilationist gays who would happily shove anyone visibly queer in front of a train if they thought it would help them up a single rung of whatever respectability ladder they think is standing between them and their destiny.
I don't wanna see it but I don't wanna see the straight shit either.
People who start unprompted debate outside the internet are the type you want to stay far away from.
With those people you really need to take a page from the life of Karl Marx and just start laughing derisively at them. Or offer them a wedgie if you're sufficiently big.
I remember whipping out “I’m an atheist” when someone thought to laugh and make light of the LGBTQ kid doing a presentation on gay rights and assumed everyone believed in a gay-hating God.
Can't get enough of this meme.
You did this.

Liberals can't suffer a Marxist because it's proof in-the-flesh that humans aren't driven by self-interest alone and thus self-interest =/= rationality.
We are walking evidence of why markets can't solve everything and so they resolve to purge us to maintain the lie.
an evergreen - why liberals hate leftists
Liberals hate leftists because they’ve spent their whole lives building and reinforcing a worldview which validates war, oligarchy and exploitation while thinking of themselves as defenders of equality and sanity, so when someone comes in promoting an ideology which highlights the discrepancy between those two points the cognitive dissonance which sets in makes them feel like the leftist just slapped them in the face.
...
Liberals hate leftists for the same reason you’d hate someone who keeps yelling out “This is all fake! Those are actors!” at a theater: they disrupt a pleasant illusion the liberals are trying to enjoy about villains being fought by heroic protagonists.
I think you're assuming far too much realpolitik to the lib ideology. Their ideology is nothing more than
"they are good, they read all the things that they're supposed to and say all the things they're supposed to, and it feels good to be good. Anyone who doesn't do this is ontologically evil at worst, and an unthinking child at best"
There's nothing more, there's no connection to material reality and national/individual self interest ideology like the cold-war era conservatives.
It's just a cargo cult performing the correct rituals which can never be changed, even if it means their loss and death.
I'd agree that it operates subconsciously for most of them (those simply cudgeled into assimilation, especially). But, I know some in real life who actively live and breathe the ideology, too.
The difference is usually whether they are confused by the behavior/thoughts of a Marxist or outright angered by them.
Yeah, there's a few MoralIntern types. But even they have a very different view of the world to Conservative liberals. One seeks Ideological and superstructure control, the other control of the base social and material relations.
yeah, honestly I find the former more disturbing; something about them realizing that the liberal mythos has to be whipped into everyone in order to perpetuate it is just creepy.
and of course, as always, they accuse their ideological opponents of what they themselves actually do.

Skippy rolled so the rest of droid kind could hurriedly shuffle :07:
Due to lack of traction for my #NFT project I have to cook #Methamphetamine inside a warehouse in #Utica
Maybe I should sell each crate of Methamphetamine as an NFT. #IdeasGuy
Jesse we need to randomly generate more primates :walter-shock:
There's a topless lady hanging around outside, besides the bus station. She's like 60 and has fucking perfect tits. Tbh if my tits were this good at 60 id be shirtless all the time too.
i was still posting in the old mega when it got locked :powercry-1:
There is a shortage of HRT in the UK right now. The BBC has been covering it, but of course only with the context that cis women need it after menopause. It'd be nice if they mentioned trans women in the articles...
The monkey's paw curls
Trans women will be mentioned in the articles, but only to blame them for the shortage.
For the spanish speaking star wars fans:
The existence of an R2D2 implies the existence of a bigger and legendary droid called Arturo
Feeling like a mega genius for understanding this with my rudimentary ass Spanish
I’ve quit gaming, something I did back when I got on add meds and then used that time to actually read theory etc, but relapsed into gaming during the pandemic, time to make a change again. This is my own personal Great Reset.
Actual exchange I just had on :reddit-logo: :
Them: Don't protest, just vote
Me: I've voted in every election and things are getting worse
Them: You're a liar, you clearly don't vote
Sorry guys, I should have :vote: ed harder. It's my fault we're in this mess :sadness:
People are posting up Ruth Bader Ginsburg shit like she isn't LITERALLY AND PERSONNALY RESPONSIBLE FOR THIS FUCKING SITUATION.
The company that owns these apartments decided it'd be a good idea to get rid of the ability to use debit cards to do your laundry and reverted back to only accepting quarters.
I just bought a universal washer key from ebay so I'll never have to pay for the shit again :cool-bean:
this is your fault
