  • I believe it was canonized that Vader made improvements when it was required. Vader was still a technical genius and a pilot that no one rivaled.

    Take his right hand for instance - he was given the first prosthetic, that he replaced during the clone wars. One of his legs in a comic gets beat to all hell, and he rips off a jedi training droid leg to replace it, which works better and is far sturdier.

    But originally it was intended to be a hinderance. Anikin was a walking vergence in the force, simply by existing he made his connection to the force stronger. By sticking him in a much less technically advanced cyborg suit than what Grievous got, he could also just blast him with some lightning to weaken him physically again.













  • I imagine the children with these things are emotionally disregulated in some way shape or form. A small group of children sometimes don’t learn to self soothe when they are very young, others in ASD struggle with it for a lifetime. Some with ADHD have a very difficult time when their medicine wears off and their emotions kick back in to overdrive.

    For all those groups I mentioned, the whole concept of this thing was almost brilliant. Something that they can go to knowing it will be able to help them guide through emotions while mom and dad are doing something necessary like cooking or fixing something outside, or in the bathroom.

    If you haven’t had to deal with a child that has emotional regulation problems, then it is hard to explain the difficulty that the failure of this device will make. It is true that they will adapt it, they always do, that’s how things work. The problem is that the emotional disregulation leads to broken things at home, aggressive behaviors with peers, getting kicked out of preschool and day care, etc.

    It truly is a nightmare scenario. The parents have to prepare for all of these things and a new way to help their child through the limited existing means.





  • I mean my ex wife had what she called “resting bitch face.”

    Everyone else just said she’s emotionless and has the exact same monotone of voice outside of her “customer service” voice. She could get angry, but she really didn’t get angry she just got loud. Until she typically lost it then it was different.

    Looking back on it, people always told me “there’s something off about her.” I always kind of brushed it aside cause she was hot.
