my two dear friends
favorite duo with little screentime, many such cases
i just wanted you guys to know theres a porn parody of the force awakens and just when this storm trooper dude starts feeling this bitch up, kylo came in and started doing his usual tantrum shit in the background unprovoked, meanwhile oblivious to all thats happening and let me tell you no porn has ever cut me so off guard and brought me to tears in .01 seconds until now
And if your conscience is bothering you, you should soothe it with the knowledge that you may have just saved the entire Alpha Quadrant - and all it cost was 2 hours of sleep, Ayesha Erotica, and the self-respect of your entire online audience. I don't know about you, but I'd call that a bargain.

So my beta reader for the Big Fics is an astrophysicist, right. Who is currently also writing a hard sci-fi novel about the exploration of Phobos (more power to them, I cannot with the physics required for that, best I can do is soft sci-fi/fantasy and that reminds me I should finish that story).
Anyway I was bitching about how hard it is to come up with feasible planets in Star Wars because sometimes you need a new planet from scratch and sometimes you need to know more about a planet than the 'has jungles, is probably a moon technically' than Wookieepedia will give you, and they're like 'oh yeah I can do something about that'.
So they've written (in Matlab but they swear it will run as a .exe as well and I may be conscripted to embed it as a web tool at some point) a star system generator.
You input what you know about the planet (ecosystem, population, sun colour, does it have liquid water, does it have a moon or moons, is it a moon or moons, temperature averages, atmosphere, you get me) and it will give you the... everything else about the star system, in obedience to real-universe physics. And if you input nothing you get a randomly generated star system.
And I’m like oh I know people who will be into this with a vengeance, and they're not on Tumblr, so this is me seeing who exactly would be keen on, and I cannot stress this enough, a real-physics comprehensive star system generator.
It's still in the debugging phase (last error fixed: every planet wants to have a population of exactly 5000 regardless of other factors, turned out to be a missing equals sign somewhere), but I'm psyched for this and trying to gauge interest for how high a priority 'make this an accessible web tool' needs to be.

I want you guys to all start making a bigger stink about Tumblr's Age Verification Horseshit.
Like they tried to change Reblogs and people rightfully got up in arms, this is a LOT worse. In order to have access to any sort of thing dubbed mature, and We haveALL seen what they think is mature, Everything from a black and white photo of a black woman's arm, to posts about IUD recalls, to a nude painted by a 17th century artist, to anything involving the word Trans; you have to send your personal information to a third party site that WILL get hacked, and you will be doxxed. And they can say "Oh shit, well it wasn't us who sent your name address and gender identity to Moldovan teenagers, here's a couple extra minutes in the ball pit.
That's bad enough!!!!!!!! But the entire idea of needing permission from state authorities to access anything labeled mature by our friendly AI overlords is some fucking Boll shit. Die Gedenken Sind Frie baby. This is all a reaction to people getting uppity about their lowly lowly rights and is being propped up by the same bad actors tht have made life unlivable. Fuck that shit.
"Well it's only being rolled out in Brazil and UK" Yeah, to start. "Well they're being forced to do this by laws." YOu know it's always really funny when these tech giants (Or whatever you call owning tumblr dot com) get really antsy about laws considering they pick and choose which ones they abide by.
This is a breaking point and it's going to be very interesting to see how we proceed from here.
i get this now and it won't let me click through to any 'mature' blogs :(
Case in point, looked up a bdsm term the other day and got this cutesy little message:
This is while using a VPN.
But you can still use a search engine and type in the term plus Tumblr and get results. They're not the results I wanted for my research but I can still see BDSM content when clicking through, while still logged in.
I'd love to know why this is the case!
100% canon
So I've seen that recent post about the way Aya Kusube drew Gengar and Haunter in 1999, and I fell in love with the style.
So I wanted to try to replicate the artstyle with this little Pokemon illustration!
Boo.
Seen today on walk peace and love on planet earth
I'm almost certain someone has done this before but
is lord summerisle the original tumblr sexyman? pls discuss
I don't understand why I haven't seen it in the fandom before... but. There is a cellist (!!!) in Munich Philharmonic Orchestra that looks EXACTLY like Miles O'Brien (!) I'm just sorry what. Really?

Hearing about people who freaked out and assumed someone was far-right when they saw a red & black flag, only for it to be a Klingon flag, and like. Maybe...rethink flying a flag like this even if it's "just Klingons"?
It's weird, too, bc I thought "wait, does the Klingon symbol even look like that", and according to EAS besides this flag in Undiscovered Country (revived for PIC & DIS)...
...it usually doesn't have that color scheme! The Klingon flag looks like this in DS9 for instance
(with some variants, including a red/black/white/yellow one, but nothing like the one people buy)
I've seen people say the first one "represents Klingons well" but like, does it? The Klingons...aren't Nazis? They're a warrior culture, sure, but they're feudalists more than anything? Even if they were Star Trek's fascist analogue "the Nazi flag but with their symbol instead" would be super lazy design and also why would you fly the Nazi Planet Flag
Anyway that isn't even the design most of the Star Trek franchise uses for the Klingon's flag & the new shows that do use it likely got it off the internet & it's stunning to me that people would put up something like that without thinking "will this cool nerd reference make my neighbors think I'm a Nazi"
Someone irl showed me a photo of a "Klingon flag" so I'm bringing this back
This was never used as a Klingon flag on the original shows & even the one movie to feature a flag like this featured a different one w/yellow or white outline & black stripes. It's been used in Lower Decks & Picard but that's probably bc it was already so popular online it popped up in search results (not the first time, iirc there are a few flags/symbols in Disco that were originally made by fans for game mods but ended up on the show bc they were going off Google).
Anyway I really don't think it's a great idea for people to put up this Nazi-esque Klingon flag that isn't even the canon Klingon flag???
Saw someone on another, somehow worse website chortling that people were calling them out for flying a "Nazi flag" when, lol, it was just the Klingon flag I wanted to reiterate:
This is not "the Klingon flag". It has never shown up in canon as a Klingon flag (or it hadn't). It's not listed on Memory Alpha or Ex Astris Scientia.
The Klingons have had many flag designs in canon...
...many of them more common than the one closest to the "Klingon flag" common online, which is inspired by the design that only ever appeared in Star Trek VI - and even then it was different, having a gold outline and stripe
(And the flag in Star Trek VI *was* designed to evoke the Nazis, so the fact that a film trying to make that comparison didn't really shows off how much this whole "it's not Nazi actually" doesn't work. And the rest of the franchise Klingons primarily as either an allegory for the Soviets [TOS] or post-Soviet Russia with a viking/samurai culture [TNG on] so of course that kind of iconography is unique to this movie. But you know, even if this was the canon Klingon flag, maybe don't fly the flag of Allegory Nazis??)
The image closest to the one that's now everywhere as The Klingon Flag Not a Nazi Flag It's So Funny You Think It Is Though is a viewscreen logo in the same movie. And even that has the gold outline
It's a relatively obscure design, and the one that's now everywhere online as The Klingon Flag isn't it! There is a design with black outlines, according to EAS, and it's...an obscure background flag in one episode of DS9 & one episode of Enterprise, and it doesn't look like this, either. Like a lot of Klingon flags it looks, you know. Alien, with Klingon script and odd shapes and patterns
There's frankly no good faith reading on this. This flag was never "the Klingon flag". It's an element of a flag inspired by the Nazis that was seized upon, edited to look more Nazi, and sold in such high quantities it now appears near-exclusively when you google "Klingon flag"...
...so much so that it was made canon by showing up in the background of the new shows, whose art staffs found it on Google.
Like yes. People obviously started this so they could have something close to a Nazi flag, but with plausible deniability. Silly normie, you aren't nerd enough to get that it's just a Klingon flag! But it was essentially made up for that purpose. It makes no real sense that this would take off to the complete exclusion of designs that actually appeared in dozens of episodes otherwise. And obviously most people buying it don't know that. But it's clearly where it started
