The Galactic Standard Calendar is based on the luno-solar calendar of Coruscant (from before the official founding of the Empire). It is the ‘standard’ in both the Republic and the Empire for basic measurements. However, there are many, many variations for various species, planets, etc. This is just the ‘standard’ used; similar to measurements of weight, etc.
Basically, this is not the ‘only calendar’ but the one used most often by governments, the military, etc. to be the ‘standard’. I thought it might be useful for people writing or roleplaying in the Star Wars galaxies to have a rough idea.
NOTE: There is mention in some sources of a 12 month/368 day calendar, but it doesn’t mention length of weeks, months, etc. other than ‘30-31 days’ so basically seems to be a ‘real life calendar’. I’m not 100% sure which is considered ‘canon’ so I choose to list the one that was a bit more ‘different’ for fun.

You know I've always loved how different people portray falling in love, or at least how they perceive love. However, I don't like how people feel the need to argue that their version of falling in love is the right version.
For some people falling in love is wild and adventurous, and an emotion that frees you from responsibility and allows you to focus on yourself and how you feel. Some people see it as scary and impending, as if falling in love comes with a ball and chain, and is an unknown emotion that they must figure out their feelings on their own. To some, it is easy to fall in love because they want to share their own love with everyone around them, to show their world that it is beautiful and deserves to feel special, they want to build a wall around those they fall in love with to protect them. To some, it is difficult, because they feel you must become vulnerable to others, that they must break down the walls they carefully build to protect themselves from the world.
To some falling in love is romantic, it is one of passion and caring, falling in deep with another until they explode with emotion. To some, it is platonic, where they see soft smiles and laughs and build loyalty until realizing that they have fallen in deep and they don't want to spend the rest of their life without them by their side.
However, I believe falling in love is none of these things. Falling in love is an identity. Falling in love is different for every person as each person is different from each other. Falling in love is created by our different environments, and each experience is unique to everyone. I just find that beautiful.

I don't believe being queer is a lifestyle or a way of life, I believe it is a moral. Being queer isn't just being gay or trans or ace/aro. Being queer is being brave, having pride (pun intended), it's being loud, it's being unafraid to stand up to others no matter the situation. It's understanding that you don't have to live a certain way, you don't have to live the apple pie life. you don't have to want kids, you don't have to marry someone, and you don't have to have a simple boring job. It's rejecting society's standards and stereotypes. It's allowing you to express emotion, it's taking up space and showing the world who you are. It's being kind and passionate. It's knowing it's okay to be a virgin, it's okay to have a low body count, it's okay to be a little messed up, and it's okay to get help. It's knowing that everyone is different and not giving a fuck what people do or think (as long as they aren't hurting anyone or themselves) because it's their life. Being queer is being proud.
I'm passionate about my queerness because I want to live in a world where nobody has to be. I want people to be able to come home to their parents with their partners and it is not any different if they were straight. I want to live in a world where nobody has to come out because loving someone is normal, but we don't have that yet so I will continue to proudly state I'm pan and queer. I'm passionate about my queerness because I want people to see me and know they can be open to me, that I am safe and I care about their experience, and I want them to know that they are loved and normal and are allowed to make stupid gay jokes and shout about their queerness. I'm passionate about my queerness because if I'm not then I know we will be locked away and buried in history again. I'm passionate about my queerness because I want my fucking rights, I want to be respected, and I want to be allowed to live my life the way I want.
Add onto this if you feel like it. Or don't your choice.
Maybe I am a monster
okay but who’s gonna tell us if there's a store called Delaware??? Like...is there?
hold on a fucking second. delaware is a state?? i thought it was a river? or is the river more important than the state? why don't i know this? (i should mention i don't like in america, i'm just confused)
there is delaware (state) and delaware (river)
both are equally strange
the state is a tiny little cryptid thing
the rive is a monster that spans new york, pennsylvania, new jersey and delaware. also washington crossed it once and that was like kinda a big deal i guess. like crossing the rubicon in rome.
the state tries to me more important with its “im the first state!!!” bs (seriously its even on the fucking license plates) but we all know. its the river.
that moment when school starts TOMORROW but you haven't even started your summer essay-

aaaaaaaannnnnd she's upgraded!!! don't mind the headpiece i was really lazy and forgot that that was actually the outline lol. Still trying to find a good style to make her eyes less creepy butt we vibin. I've decided to name her Ranakga, from the Indonesian words "Anak surga" which means "Heaven's child" (I used google translate sorry if this is completely incorrect lol). Uhhhh, ya I might work on her later but this is pretty much it lol.
My First Post! She isn’t the best but I like her. Tell me what you think her backstory is!
