The really good post about Star Wars, canon, the inevitable strain and decline of canon when you try and examine so much on the edges?

Yeah I'm gonna be honest, that was the main thing I enjoyed about the post-Homestuck parts of Homestuck. Someone purposefully taking that, even if literally everything about it was fucking wild. "Sure, I'll tell stuff as the author, but this has as much validity in canon as anything the fans have written since" is pretty damn refreshing when the only things that have actually been freed into the public domain in ... two-three whole generations lifetimes are, just now, barely, Winnie the Pooh and Sherlock Holmes. That's to say nothing of a certain TERF who keeps just stating things to try and make herself seem like she did a better job with canon. Geez.

The Thanos point that was brought up is so funny to me, because of... just how much they pasteurized Thanos for the MCU. I don't really have a better word for it. Comics Thanos had the motivation of killing enough people to try and get Death to fuck him. That's horrifying but the only sort of stupid motivation that can make sense. Movie-Thanos... wanted to reduce resource consumption across the galaxy? ... For... a really limited time? So that people just... eventually settled into not using resources too hard? Really buddy?
