Your fave is problematic: James T. Kirk.
* 17 separate temporal violations
* A menace
A “menace”, with this face?
That face and that wink and that everything is WHY he’s a menace.
“This was the first Enterprise.”
“His ship.”
“James T. Kirk.”
Your face when the Department of Temporal Investigations doesn’t remember your Enterprise.
Especially considering the time travel that went on throughout all of ENT???
"There are three things to remember about being a starship captain: keep your shirt tucked in, go down with the ship, and never abandon a member of your crew." - Favourite Star Trek Captain (Free Choice)

couldn’t have said it better myself.
Not me distinctly remembering that DLDR was originally meant for GAY ships because homophobia in the 2000s was so bad that gay fics would get mass flamed if you didn’t put that disclaimer.
Mass flamed and/or straight-up deleted, purged and banned. The purity brigade were behind Strikethrough back in the 2000s. Nothing is new under the sun 😩
the crew of the revenge having an emergency meeting because like half of them are convinced there are ghosts in the ship because they all have been hearing this giggling and these voices when no one else was around, that are actually coming from the walls, all day and what they don't know is that stede told ed he was going to give him a tour of all the secret passageways he designed because he has finally found someone he can share these things with, someone that will appreciate it in the same way stede does without making fun of stede's ideas, and ed is actually fascinated of course, and they got carried away ( they have been making out in the secret passageways all day)
#I've only had Jay-Den "I watch birds" Kraag for a day and a half but if anything happens to him I would kill everyone in this room and then myself STAR TREK: STARFLEET ACADEMY (2026–)
I was not expecting cake with quite so much heat and brine.
Really spent twenty years theorising that every female character in Doctor Who was secretly Susan or the Rani for them both to turn up in the same episode - one of them twice.
They had five dollars and a dream
feeling very normal and not at all devastated and heartbroken by Stede's face here
DOCTOR WHO The Story and the Engine
"average cat owner spends 3 years in prison" factoid actualy just statistical error. average owner spends 0 years in prison. Miette's mother, who kicked her body like the football and went to jail for One Thousand Years is an outlier adn should not have been counted
I've just finished the first Murderbot book and it's very funny coming from Star Trek to this. In Star Trek you have androids and such actively campaigning for themselves to be considered full people with rights that deserve the same considerations as anyone else. Meanwhile in Murderbot all the humans are telling this guy that it's a person with rights and it's their friend and they like it and its response is basically
One thing I've been meaning to write an essay about for a while and never got around to is the difference between older, Data-style robot people and more modern iterations like Murderbot. You've got two levels of striving for rights here, the modern one built on having internalised the older one. Every time I reflect on them I'm reminded strongly of the public-facing part of the queer rights movement.
Data, who strongly admires and desires humanity, has his story centred around being as humanlike as possible. In Data stories, to be more like a human is viewed as improvement, to be called humanlike is a compliment; everything is framed around his ability to seem similar to humans and he's good because he strives to be more human. He's similar to the nineties and early millennium push of "we're just like you! Our differences are something we were born with and we can't help :( but we can be same as you! Trans people were just born in the wrong body; if we get the right one, we fit in! Gay people can form lifelong partnerships and raise kids! Love is love! <3" in order to appeal for basic rights, safety and autonomy. Data is safe. He asks you to listen to his plea to let him through the gates, not to tear the fences down.
Murderbot is different. Murderbot knows what it is and doesn't strive for humanity. Murderbot does not see being called human as a compliment and, while it will fake being human for strategic reasons, prefers not to be confused for one. The humans in book 1 gaining sympathy for it because of how humanlike it is and talking about it in human terms is not seen as uplifting and positive but as awkward and painfully naive, something that drives Murderbot away and that they have to address in themselves when it comes back. The Preservation Aux system of allowing bots in only with human sponsors to guide them is seen as obviously unfair and condescending, a way for humans to roleplay being charitable sympathetic guides for the poor bots who clearly need their help. Murderbot is the post-aughts queer wave of "whether we are like you or not is irrelevant. We are entitled to rights and safety whether or not we fit into your systems and stroke your egos. Whether you understand us or approve of us is not relevant to this question. It is not our job to treat you as an ideal we are failing to reach in order to make you feel better." Murderbot is not safe. Murderbot does not plead at the gate that it should be let in. Murderbot is not grateful and appreciative of your generosity for opening the gate because in Murderbot's world, the fact that you're still manning the gate means you're a naive annoyance.

Oh so this is why people are gaga over Peter Dinklage
Oh this is what people mean by preserving the dick jokes in Shakespeare adaptations!

I have rarely seen an actor enjoying being Malvolio that much.
This is exactly it. He is having a GREAT FUCKING TIME. A lot of the time Malvolio is played like he still kind of has a stick up his ass even in this scene. Like, ok, he's the Puritan, he's not allowed to have *fun,* he's just allowed to be smug and self-satisfied. So he just comes off as extra creepy.
But this Malvolio has been entirely transformed by the idea that Olivia thinks he's a sex god, and it's just glorious. Not a shred of self doubt, zero concern for dignity, absolute conviction that between his kinky boots and his tight ass he is fucking IRRESISTIBLE. It's just glorious. Like you can laugh *with* this Malvolio instead of just *at* him. Changes the whole game.
