Life = Imagination x Science

[castion-n-clockwork]

Hey, so...I'm desperate to write Alan/Ellie fanfics but I need a jumping off point.

Anyone have song recommendations or story ideas you don't mind throwing my way so I can jump on this train while I'm still jazzed from the movie? 👀

I'll take anything, any rating, alternate universe, short scenes, answers to questions, whatever you give me. I'll be posting them to AO3 so keep a look out.

The Star trek/Crystal gems (kinda) au no one asked for

Kirk’s gem is on his heart (a red one) and Spock’s gem on his forehead (a green one) so they naturally make a yellow one: Amber!

They have a shield to protect the crew and their weapon can knock out enemies and also kill them but if it’s only necessary. Together, they make the perfect captain!

Vox’s Joss Fong put together a beautiful video pairing the images from the Voyager Golden Records (learn more about them here) with words from Carl Sagan and music from Blind Willie Johnson. The first image was a simple “calibrating circle” used in this post’s title.

There’s something powerful about this collection of images – this small attempt to sum up human existence. Carl Sagan said:

The spacecraft will be encountered and the record played only if there are advanced space-faring civilizations in interstellar space. But the launching of this ‘bottle’ into the cosmic ‘ocean’ says something very hopeful about life on this planet.

If we sent a time capsule to the aliens today, what would you want to include?

tbh i dont get why most people assume that robots are always cold

like have u felt a laptop while its working? its kinda not exactly cold yo

tbh any piece of machinery thats working hard to function is usually not cold, the only time its ever cold is when its turned off

so id like to think while a robot is awake and functioning they could have the potential to be as warm as a human being :0

never thought about this before but now it’s obvious

although like i hope they’ve actually improved cooling tech by the time they’re building androids bc my laptop can actually get so hot it makes THE ROOM hot and it’s only the size of a laptop so potentially an android who was thinking very hard would be a veritable furnace 

think too hard, overheat, faint

fainting couches for androids omg

[notcuddles]

Fainting couches for androids is the best possible thing

[ceruleancynic]

file under things i didn’t know i needed in my life

[roachpatrol]

humans who carry around those chemical freeze-packs in case they need something to drape across their friend’s fevered brow

humans who insist on holding a parasol for their robot friend on sunny days

a robot draping herself over a fainting couch in distress and a bunch of worried humans mobbing up to fuss and fan her and bring her some cool water and pat her hand and gallantly offer to beat up whatever alarmed her

too cute

[johnny-bug-deactivated20161109]

Okay guys and gals I like where ur going but I think we’ve glossed over something with real potential.

Androids blushing

A human calls their android friend cute and then they look flustered and you hear their cooling fans kick into high gear

A human plants a little kiss on their cheek and they turn red hot (literally) from embarrassment

“Brr, it’s friggin cold in here.”

“Hold on I got this. Hey TX-10 did I tell you you look very pretty today?”

The room temp rises a couple degrees as TX-10 tries to hide their blushing.

yES THANK U FOR ADDING THIS TO MY POST

[dancercoder]

YES YES YES YES this is the content I want from my Tumblr

[neraiutsuze]

okay but also consider this

robots attracting cats like catnip every time they stop moving for more than a few minutes

robot sits down for ten minutes, is immediately a cat pillow

halfheartedly protesting to their human friends that they have tasks to do and being informed that no, their priority one override task is now to be a cat pillow, sorry friend that’s just how this works

InkTober 06 - Request from @zeddpool​

inspired by this post by @poetry-draws​

This is yet another example of something Bones would never let Spock live down. Except that he is too embarrassed to admit that he was excited to play doctor with Spock. Jim, though. Jim never lets them forget. XD

Requests are OPEN

[youkaiyume]

The War Boys call him “lucky,” to be favored by the Imperator.

The Sisters call him her “support/partner.”

Furiosa calls him “reliable.”

Max thinks the correct term they’re looking for is “furniture.”

But all things considered, he’s been used for worse before. He doesn’t mind being of use to Furiosa.

—

I said I wanted to draw a series of doodles of Furiosa using Max as various forms of furniture mostly to lean upon…and him making bemused grumpy faces.

my headcanon for startrek is that humans look, to vulcans, like a dog frathouse. like signing on to a human ship is exactly that thrillingly loud and frustrating and fast and stupid and fun. the humans are going to dash off to a new sector to see if there are friends there and then they will jump up and down with delight and stuff their faces up against their new friends’ genital array. the humans are going to bark for ten minutes at a rock. the humans want to chase things they can’t possibly catch just because they like running around. the humans are madly passionate about their arbitrary group identities. the humans can be divided into new arbitrary group identities which they will then be passionate about. the humans want to stick their heads out of the window of their starship and go ‘wheee!’. if you step on a human’s paw they will act like you just killed them for about thirty seconds and then want more headpats. the humans can be immediately distracted from crucial duties by the appearance of a small animal. if you howl all the humans in earshot will howl louder just to show off. a human just humped your leg. ‘don’t make it weird bro’ the human says. later the human will dig a weird bug out of the ground and eat it.

….Seems legit.

[andurile]

it’s almost 2014 already are we still arguing on whether to give female characters the equal amount of screentime on movies as male characters

[percychekov-deactivated20180908]

#this is both an example of captain kirk being upset by it and of reboot being a flagrant offender

[pajamaslam-deactivated20190101]

#jim kirk was a raging feminist if you don’t think so you don’t know him

THIS IS NOT EVEN UP FOR FUCKING DEBATE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Can someone please draw me fan art of Jim Kirk triumphantly wearing a “this is what a feminist looks like” t-shirt while making this face:

“WANNA FIGHT ABOUT IT, PUNK?”

[jb612]

Haha, like this?

Personal side note? I don’t think I really understood how much we need feminism until I watched this show. Its a window back into it’s time, and it really demonstrates both the problem (its still totally problematic and there are TONS of signs of the times in there) and how hard people were working to build a better future. Naw.

[whymrspock]

And yet there’s people that still argue about Jim Kirk being a feminist. smh
