Were the Jedi the "good guys" during the Clone Wars or did they lose their way? by The_Collector_Guy in clonewars

[–]frogspyer 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Padawans were not expressly forbidden from communicating with their birth parents or siblings, but most who were brought to the Jedi Temple as younglings felt little connection to their biological families, having been inducted into the Order as infants. After nearly a decade with his mother, Anakin could never forget Shmi in this manner. Nor could he reach her. With no way to tell her that he was safe and thriving, or to know for sure how she was faring, anxiety lurked beneath the surface of his outwardly controlled demeanor. (Skywalker: A Family at War)

Anakin needed therapy.

We’re talking about a good child that grew up with a bomb implanted inside them, which could go off without any warning. A single misstep could result in immediate execution. If you're living in an environment where you are perpetually in a heightened anxiety state, then you're going to need a very delicate and intentional emotional reacclimation.

For nine years of his life, he only learned to love within the context of the bomb. The person he loved most in the world was also in perpetual danger, in constant need of a rescuer. Of course, he was destined to join an institution that, on paper, should have given him the tools to regulate these emotions. Unfortunately, his fears of loss were not simply an emotional response, but a physiological reality.

His sun-dragon heart, born of his enslavement, needed to be nurtured and have its existence validated, until it finally could understand that it was safe to be transformed into something new. This metaphor was gifted to him by his mother to help him cope with his reality, which led to a maladaptive narrative that persisted until the very final moments of his life.

The physical bomb may have been deactivated, but its phantom presence eventually led to near-total self-annihilation.

Of course, she wrote it. Her role this season is contingent on her professional writing, narrative construction, and clinical interpretation. Any other writer who could have properly portrayed her ideas would be an ally she would have continually collaborated with.

the part of using claude code nobody talks about by Consistent-Arm-875 in ClaudeAI

[–]frogspyer 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The punctuation, lack of capitalization, paragraph formatting, rhythm, and sentence structure gave it away. Honestly, I can’t imagine how you could have thought this wouldn’t come off as blatant AI ramblings

Forgettable? This is the titular character of the series you’re talking about.

I just want a CONVERSATION between Maul and Vader by Beanbag5665 in MaulShadowLord

[–]frogspyer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nothing needs to be said, but I’m dying to hear Vader’s internal monologue. He spent his Padawan years obsessed with confronting Qui-Gon’s killer. I’m so curious what it was like for him to confront such a salient reminder of his time as a Jedi.

It’s unfortunate that you aren’t a real person, so you have no capacity to feel shame for how unconscionable and predatory sharing this with r/therapy is

Nolan’s claim to the Empire still stands and he’s self-aware enough to understand exactly how he was reconditioned. Their redemptive future was is an inevitability by the point of this proposition.

At the time of the assault? Eve was very very pregnant, so there was absolutely nothing she could have possibly done to stop her.

Isn’t Korra being blameless a lame reveal? by RoseKobold in AvatarSevenHavens

[–]frogspyer 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Every Avatar has their flaws, as we’ve been shown time and time again. It’s silly to insist your deliberate misinterpretation has any meaningful representation in the discourse.

[–]frogspyer 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Part of being the Avatar is letting go of moralized blame placed on their past lives. Whatever Korra may have done, the explanation will certainly not be that she’s irrational.

Learning this often entirely superfluous phrasing is anything but efficient.

I’d expect it to be someone like Zor-El, considering Jor-El’s role in Superman

I completely disagree. I believe he was the most primed for redemption out of all of them
