Is the second half of your name a reference to Lister’s cat? :0

yesss!! It's kind of both a ref to Lister's Cat and secondly, Mary Shelley's Frankenstein. Shelley is one of my fav historical figures and Frankenstein is one of my fav fictional stories, it laid the foundations for sci-fi and biopunk as we know it. I absolutely LOVED the 2025 Guillermo Del Toro adaptation and I think he needs to do Carmilla next. Anyways, I just thought it would be nice to pay homage to two of my interests ❤️

Thank u for ur ask!! ❤️❤️

you make one fucking post where the point is “women are encouraged to develop disordered eating from a very young age and that impacts how we view the ‘natural’ size and shape of women” and too many reblogs later i am being accused of saying short people wouldn’t exist if they ate better growing up. i’m sorry but if you genuinely think i was saying that you are just a buffoon. i cannot and will not sanction your buffoonery.

Let's say I really wanted to reduce the number of children who die in car accidents. Car accidents are really bad, right? Nobody disagrees about that. And it would be much better for both the environment and the kids' health if they spent more time walking, or taking the bus. Perfectly reasonable. More cars off the road, safer roads, fewer kids getting hurt, healthier kids. A win-win!

Therefore, let's ban children from traveling by car and require all cars to have a scanner on the door that scans the government ID of everyone who gets in the car to make sure no kids are in there. After all, kids get hurt in car accidents all the time! We need to ban this right away!

Amazing moments in Dads: my friend’s dad’s critique of Frankenstein was, “I just don’t think the author had read science fiction before.”

Do you have any red dwarf headcanons?

hi hi!! I honestly don't have alot of hcs but here are the very few I have

Rimmer is somewhere on the Asxeual spectrum, I think he only sleeps with Nirvanah Crane bc that's the only accepted way to express emotional bond and prolonged physical contact on the holoship (asexual rimmer hc is actually supported by Rob Grant too, bless his heart ❤️🥹)

Whenever they mention the music "Rastabilly Skank" I think of the irl band Skindred as being the closest thing to it

Mcgruder being an athletic, bisexual tomboy that was in a brief relationship with Kochanski (who is a lesbian suffering from the hell that is 2180's comphet bc somehow that monster never dies)

Thank u so much for ur ask!❤️ sorry it's not alot.. if I think of anything more I will update!!

Responding to your request for asks 🙂‍↕️

What is your favourite quote from Red Dwarf? :D

And, what is your least favourite episode?

- krytens-spare-head (this probably was sent from my main blog idk how Tumblr works yet 😖)

hi!! Thank u for responding to my request

My favourite quote is when Mr Flibble says "Uncle Arnie's gonna fry u alive with his hex vision". For some reason it was a vocal stim of mine for the longest time. It just felt nice repeating in my mouth yk?

Another runner-up could be "you make love like a japanese meal. Small portion sizes... but so many courses" Jane Horrocks' line delivery always makes me giggle lol

For my least fav episode, I'll have to say Krytie TV (or any season 8 episode if we're feeling particularly hateful on this fine thursday evening)

The plot was just really stupid, esp for Red Dwarf, which is a show that sets itself apart from any other sitcom bc it combines interesting sci-fi concepts that help you understand the characters on a deeper level and classic british comedy

Like we used to get cool shit like The Inquisitor in s3, the simulant who literally goes around erasing people from existence if they deem themselves not worthy of existence, which forces Lister to come to terms with the fact he didn't meet his potential and allows for some genuine feelings

And now in s8, we have a rapey plot abt Kryten recording the women showering ????? What the fuck. How does a show fall from grace this hard omg

Sorry if this was super long and spiteful!! ❤️ thank u again for the ask!

okay i have a niche rimmer headcanon but you guys are just gonna have to hear me out on this one. rimmer with POTS. okay. hear me out.

we know he goes on runs/jogs very frequently, and yet passes out not even halfway through his run in queeg. usually, when you don’t have a condition that gets worse with exercise, evwn if you’re just doing a little bit each day you tend to build stamina and endurance. an able-bodied who goes on frequent runs most likely won’t pass out after a 500 yard light run (queeg wasnt making him go THAT fast — not the first time, at least). even someone who’s unfit is likely just gonna be pretty puffed out, not completely unconscious (i can speak from experience). we see him mention in future echoes he needs to take breaks during his runs to “not look too shagged out” which, again, typically able bodied people who are frequently exercising are able to build their endurance and need less breaks. but that doesn’t seem to be the case when it comes to him.

also, rimmer passing out easily isn’t restricted to just queeg. in the very first episode he passes out due to stress, which CAN happen, but the fact hes incredibly sweaty and needs to be carted away on a stretcher after the fact raises alarm bells to me.

the cause of POTS developing is still under researched, but there have been reports to support that a traumatic life event, strong stressors and a compromised immune system can all be factors towards it developing. we know rimmer was severely abused and malnourished as a kid, which definitely couldve contributed to the development of POTS.

now, do i acknowledge him being out of shape in queeg is almost entirely played and exaggerated for laughs? yes. can the symptoms of POTS he exhibits be linked to other things he might have, such as the aftermath of being starved as a kid? yes. i have a close friend with severe POTS, so i have been trained to recognise the symptoms in him, and as a result, in others too, so i could just have some bias here. but i think it’s an interesting interpretation to think about, and one i havent seen anyone discuss before, so heres me bringing it to the table :)

When bro leaves you to become a better version of himself not because he wants to but because he thinks he has to but then a week later an alternate universe version of the love of your life appears and moves into the ship but then instead of going out with her you have a dream about bro where you call eachother pet names and kiss but it’s the 90s so you wake up and then ur robot butler spends a whole week trying to convince you to hate bro who you’ve lived with for 15 years but then next season bro is just back with no explanation and nothings changed so you feel like this has all been a delusion but no they actually aired that

Hiya!! my asks are open to anyone who wants to help me rid my bordeom by asking me abt Red Dwarf!! ❤️

[kilanova248]

Madoka’s red ribbons being a symbol of the central character of the story. And how Homura never really understands why she’s given them because she can’t see herself as central. So at the first chance, she gives them back to Madoka.

Or maybe i’m just sleep deprived. Who knows.

[holofrankenstein]

Red Dwarf is a great show because if u miss Rimmer in season 7, u can just pretend that Kocanski is Rimmer living her best transfem life
