Guys this is really important. I know this show is so important to so many of us, but if it is causing you lingering and very real distress, you should please do something to help with that! I care very deeply about a lot of people in this fandom and you deserve to enjoy this finale. My dms and ask inbox are definitely open if anyone needs a big sister to talk to
Hello, hi, fandom big sister here
Finale’s are always a rollercoaster, series finales especially. They can be fun, devastating, sad, exhilarating, disappointing, everything we dreamed, or all of the above or none of those at all. Emotions run high, and it’s hard to say goodbye.
I’m here to offer that if the idea of The Bad Batch finale is making you physically sick, is genuinely impacting your day to day, or is impacting your mental health, I encourage you to do one or some of the following:
1. Reach out to someone in the fandom who you’re close to or feel comfortable reaching out to 2. Go outside in whatever capacity you’re able to whether that’s a walk or just sitting in a doorway or even being by an open window. Take in some fresh air 3. Take a break from chat forums or Reddit or tumblr where I’ve noticed an alarming uptick in anxiety induced posts about the finale
I’m saying this as someone who understands attachment to stories and characters. My body is a canvas of tattoos inspired by characters, Star Wars in particular. In fact, clones in particular. I’m excited and nervous to see what is in store for our Batch; however, fandom and media should not be a source for literal physical and mental discomfort to the point of affecting your base functions, and in the last few days, I’ve become worried over most of the posts I’ve seen. If this is happening to you, please reach out, please take a breath, and please make some space for you.
This goes for after the finale too. Consume, enjoy, process, discuss, engage, all of the beautiful fandom things. But please take the above steps if the same is happening to you post finale. We are a community, and I want this to always be a community of safety and comfort
Poor, frightened little bean :(

Hey there troopers! As promised here is an announcement letting you know that the schedule has been updated and confirmed on our carrd. In addition, our contributor applications will open TOMORROW and close on August 5th.
As always, don't feel shy about reaching out if you have a question for us!
I maaaaaaay have missed MerMay by a couple months, but listen
APPLICATIONS OPEN!
Thank you all so much for your patience! Applications for page artists, writers, chefs and merch designers are now open! In addition, the mods have decided to expand applications to include spot artists and writers! These contributors would be paired with someone else to create text like notes on a recipe (spot writer) or small art to illustrate a story or recipe (spot artist).
NOT ONLY THAT but there will also be TWO digital add-on portions to the zine! One for recipes that are all things baking, desserts, brunch, drinks and more! (More information on what can be submitted in the application).
The second add-on will be a Clone OC Showcase! Following the theme of the zine, contributors will be allowed to create artwork or stories for their OC's! Spot artists may also apply for the OC add-on and be paired with a writer to illustrate their writing.
You can apply for however many positions you would like but may be limited to where you are accepted due to only a certain amount of spots being available in the physical zine. The digital add-ons will have open spots.
APPLY HERE!
Thank you all for sticking with us as we got things organized, we really appreciate it and are excited to get this project going!

I’m a little nervous to post these because I’m aware there’s some drama going on in this fandom, but I just wanted to say I really appreciate König from CoD.
I just learned a few days ago that these games have actual plots! And they’re really emotionally charged plots too! I don’t think I’ll ever play them because just watching the gameplay makes me a little sick with how casually violent it is, but I think I will be watching other people play them with great interest 👀
A place for me to share my art as I learn how to draw digitally! (Apparently it’s important to share your age on this website now. I’m uncomfortable about posting my exact age online, but I am mid-twenties to early thirties. Don’t come at me, my joints ache)
