When will someone give me a million dollars so I can reboot Firefly with more lesbians and less racism???

Look, I’ve even got it planned out:

Captain Molly Reynolds (“Mal, call me Mal”) is the grumpy pan leader of a group of misfits aboard the spaceship Serenity. She tries to deny that she’s absolutely in heart-eyes with Inara (who is 300% ace), but no one believes her. Someday, she swears she’s going to throw them all out the airlock.

Zoe Washburn is brave, beautiful, and entirely smitten with her small ginger wife. Same-sex marriage was outlawed on the central planets after the Alliance took over, so they got married on Serenity out in deep space, where the laws didn’t apply. Any time people challenge the veracity of their marriage, Zoe asks them if they want to argue with her fists. There haven’t been any takers yet.

When the Tams get on board (in this version, they’re Korean like they SHOULD HAVE BEEN), Kaylee Frye starts falling in love not with the older Tam but the younger one. They protect each other – Kaylee from the guys who think going after a pretty lesbian is fun, River from her terrible dreams.

Is Jayne the token straight guy or an eight-foot-tall lesbian who wears knitted hats and hates everyone? I can’t decide which is better!

They’re known in Alliance circles as “those gorram smuggling lesbians”. Mal loves it.

Jayne gets written out of the show entirely to spite Adam Baldwin, who is a well known scumbag.

I WANT SOMEONE TO MAKE THIS SHOW

Beginning last summer Twitter user @fuguhitman began illustrating his personal backlog of bird-bread puns. His first starchy birb was the Sparroll and he claims to have at least 20 to work through. With 9 completed thus far, we have one question for him: why did you wait so long to share these works of punny goodness with the world?

Follow @fuguhitman on Twitter to make sure you don’t miss out on the rest of the breadbird flock and little bonus birbs such as this chocolate chick cookie:

Y’all joke about it, but let me tell you a story: See, back in ‘94 (yeah, you youngins), our sociology teacher mentioned that today was the 25th anniversary of Sesame Street. And he proceeded to tell a story.

See, he was in kindergarten when Sesame Street first aired, and he saw the first episode, live, with his classmates. He described the experience of seeing this for the first time as incredible. The entire class loved it.

The next day, however, the teacher announced that they could no longer show it, due to some people upset that it showed interracial friendships, of kids of different ethnicities playing together. Keep in mind that this show was only two years after laws banning interracial marriages were overturned.

So yeah. They’ve been doing the right thing before many of us here were even alive.

EVERY TIME SOMEONE BRINGS UP THE LIBRARY OF ALEXANDRIA I GET SO ANGRY.

tuxedoandex-deactivated20200116

but why

faith-n-reason-deactivated20191

Because it got burned. All of that knowledge, lost forever.

The library was destroyed over 1000’s of years ago. The library consisted of thousands of scrolls and books about mathematics, engineering, physiology, geography, blueprints, medicine, plays, & important scriptures. Thinkers from all over the Mediterranean used to come to Alexandria to study.Most of the major work of civilization up until that point was lost. If the library still survived till this day, society may have been more advanced and we would sure know more about the ancient world.

Jesus fucking Christ, no, the burning of the library of Alexandria did not in any way slow down human progress. It wasn’t the only library to have existed in the world at the time.

“Alexandria was hardly the only library in the world, and the libraries at Pergamum and later Rome herself rivaled Alexandria in scale. Antony replaced the losses of the fire during the Alexandrine War with copies made from the library at Pergamum, and libraries in gymnasia or simply founded for citizens abound during that period in the Greek world, they’re in like literally every city of any size. If anything at all was lost it was almost certainly mainly critical commentaries on various authors, as well as catalogs of their works–both the Alexandrian library and the Pergamene one were famous for producing such commentaries. Pretty much everything else of value would have existed elsewhere. It’s possible that a few (at that time probably little-known) philosophical texts might have been lost, but even such texts are likely to have had other copies elsewhere.” Here’s an extensive and well sourced post debunking the utter bullshit myth that the burning of the Library somehow shot human progress back thousands of years until the 16th century dragged Europe out of the “Dark Ages”.

Which is also a term very few historians use or take seriously anymore because it is, again, based off of inaccurate misconceptions about Medieval history, AS WELL as being an EXTREMELY Eurocentric viewpoint that ignores scientific and scholarly work done in other areas of the world like China and the Middle East.

During the so called ‘European Dark Ages’, architecture achieved complexities the Romans could only dream of, the first universities were opened, scholarship was kept alive, metalurgy advanced rapidly.

There wasn’t ONE renaissance, there were THREE. The one we think of had it’s roots as far back as the 14th century. They didn’t come out of nowhere, the advancements were built off of work of hundreds of years of work by educated folk from across Euroasia and they fed into one another.

In fact, here’s a handy list of Medieval European scientists, from the 5th to 14th century.

That fucking graph up there is one of the most offensivley bad pseudo-historical memes. It’s so infamous, /r/BadHistory simply calls it “The Chart”.

Let this fucking bullshit die already.

To say the least, Carrie Fisher was missed at Star Wars Celebration. Guests and attendees honored Fisher and her role of Leia Organa in a number of ways--with a fundraising benefit gala, with kind words, with glitter, and with cosplay. Dino Ignacio and his five-year-old daughter Harley showed their appreciation for Fisher in a unique fashion by interacting with Leia cosplayers.

ok this is “earring magic ken” who was introduced in 1992 (and discontinued shortly thereafter)

basically mattel had done a survey and discovered that girls didn’t think ken was “cool” enough

SO someone had the bright idea to research coolness by sending people to raves which, at the time, were mostly hosted & attended by gay men. so they went to these raves and took notes on what the fashions were and finally landed on this outfit, mesh shirt & all

this doll became the best selling ken doll in history, mostly because gay men bought it in droves. (many of them said his necklace was supposed to be a cockring) but mattel and a number of parents weren’t very amused and discontinued the doll

Never forget that Gay Raving Cockring Necklace Ken was legitimately a thing
