Alright y’all It’s time to settle this debate; is captain Rex a natural blonde or not?
Please reblog with your reasons for why or why not, I really wanna get everyone’s thoughts on this!
Rex is a natural blond in canon, but not in legends.
reasoning:
-there’s that one cadet with blond hair and do we really think the kaminoans are letting 6 year old cadets dye their hair?
-Rex’s hair is buzzed super short so unless he dyes his hair like once a week he’d have roots showing all the time
-his hair is still blond even at the end of the kadavo arc and the umbara arc, both of which took place over enough time for his hair to have grown out at least a bit and I seriously doubt he had access to hair dye during those arcs
-wasn’t he still blond when he showed up in Bad Batch?? Do we seriously believe that Rex was THAT dedicated to his look?
Why he’s not a natural blond in legends:
-that one clone wars novel where Rex dyed his hair blue to support some space sportsball team and then felt self-conscious and dyed it blond again.
-though it’s been a while since I’ve read it so I forget if it’s explicit that the blond was a result of dying initially
Karen Traviss said he bleaches his hair so he Absolutely Does Not

So when Earth gets its own permanent superstorm like Jupiter’s Great Red Spot and it makes it so the tropics are basically no longer habitable by humans is it going to have one of these random old-person hurricane names
How fucked up would it be if they chose your first name for that storm
Like you’d pretty much have to change it, right? The storm’s not going away and keeping your name would be in pretty poor taste, I’d think
in a Young Adult novel it would just be called The Storm
In a Terry Pratchett novel it would just be called Alfred. Not Hurricane Alfred, or Tropical Storm Alfred, just Alfred. This might be brought up once by a naive, sympathetic viewpoint character, but some wiser (for certain values of wise) character will admonish them for discrimination against natural phenomena, and noting that we would never call a human “Human Jim”. Later in the story, the Alfred’s individuality and relatability will be a significant plot point.
in a cyberpunk novel it would be the second half of an ordinary word, with an apostrophe at the beginning. the ‘phoon, the ‘cane, etc.
goddammit you’re absolutely right
“In a cyberpunk novel”
As if half the english-peaking internet doesn’t already call The Plague “the ‘Rona”
etc., etc.

Ok so we all love a hyperfixation but does anyone else ever avoid certain things because you feel like you don’t have the time to be fixated on that, or that you aren’t in the right headspace for this to become your latest obsession
