a day in the life

I'm Brittany. I've made it to my 30s and I still find myself laughing at pictures that don't make sense and quoting vines & tiktoks to my students and daydreaming about space and love and feminism. -Live long and prosper- -Peace and long life-

I just think it would be funny to switch things up and lead with "popular far-right online blogger, Joan Rowling" once in awhile.

Okay so, got here from a book on animal behavior but: Vulcan stand-up comedy as a competitive activity.

Because most Vulcans don't actually pretend they don't have emotions, it's all about self-regulation, right? And good comedy usually hinges on manipulating the relationship between our faculties of recognition and surprise in various ways, you can get pretty scientific with it.

So Vulcans go to the comedy act, and the idea is the comedian is trying to make you crack up, and the audience is trying to not even crack a smile, and if you do laugh, you lose. Like all in good fun, but Vulcans are both really competitive and really aware of how dangerous that urge can be to a society, so this could actually be classified as highly orthodox Surakian practice.

So of course the comedian has to actually be funny, or there's no challenge and the game is boring.

Which means the really good Vulcan comedians (most of whom tend to extremely dry delivery of their bits) are going to go around playing to packed houses, which mostly sit staring stonily back at them, with occasional breaks when someone loses it and reacts.

And after a show you'll have Vulcans walking out discussing with great approval how very humorous that was, with varying degrees of muted smugness or chagrin depending on if they won or lost.

I bet there are human comedians whose grandest fantasy is being good enough to do a set in Vulcana Regatta and have people going around bragging about not laughing at them.

"My agent was very concerned, wanted to make sure that I knew that no one was going to be laughing at my jokes."

"'Yes, I know' I said. 'I'm used to that.'"

cats will be like oh you're walking somewhere? no WE'RE walking somewhere. and i will get there first. where is 'there' btw

[pierog]

i'm so glad goncharov happened when it did, right before prolific public use of AI. that was pure honest gaslighting straight from the heart. real human whimsicality and trickery thru blood sweat and tears. we were a family. and we all gonched, together. you cant replicate that with any machine.

no language should be mocked other than french

[gareauxtrains]

Birds is “oiseaux” in French.

No letter is pronunced the way it should.

And there are seven of them.

[teaboot]

ITS PRONOUNCED “WAZO” AND YES, I WILL DIE MAD ABOUT IT

[judgejudyofficial]

oiseaux hits every vowel in the french alphabet and manages to only be pronounced with 2 goddamn syllables

[genderfluidintake]

got vowels coming out the oiseaux

Israel has killed more children in Gaza since October than in four years of worldwide conflict

[tamarrud]

Like it's been said before that when Israelis and Zionists cry "why do you single out Israel?!", they should in fact be reminded that Israel singles itself out. I mean, who commits violence at this magnitude and then bemoans being the victim??

[anti-encomiums]

In addition, Israel has now murdered as many Palestinians in 6 months as they have in more than 60 years.

[orcboxer]

Have you seen the new show? It's on Tubu. It's literally on Heebee. It's on Poodee with ads. It's literally on Dippy. You can probably find it on Weeno. Dude it's on Gumpy. It's a Pheebo original. It's on Poob. You can watch it on Poob. You can go to Poob and watch it. Log onto Poob right now. Go to Poob. Dive into Poob. You can Poob it. It's on Poob. Poob has it for you. Poob has it for you.

#I really liked that the DS9 PTB were willing to interrogate the whole Klingon Culture Thing#because I myself had long had very little patience for it [x]

Moments like this were when Ezri really worked as a character - a unique viewpoint from her personal distance from the DS9 cast and training as a counselor and mental health professional coupled with all the lives and experiences of Dax. Nobody else was around to offer such a good in-universe criticism of the Klingon Empire, and it was exciting to see, both from wanting someone to call them on it, and from a narrative standpoint that helped open up more storytelling possibilities.

ID: gifs from DS9. First gif is a close-up of Ezri looking serious, followed by a close-up of Worf, and two more gifs of Ezri. Spread across these gifs is Ezri’s dialogue; she’s saying, “Worf, you are the most honorable and decent man that I have ever met. And if you are willing to tolerate men like Gowron, then what hope is there for the empire?”
