i believe we can be extraordinary together @idesofjaim - Tumblr Blog

genuinely i do think it's crazy how this show hit every single mark for no reason other than pure love of the game. like this wasn't a money grab and it didn't think it would be a big success, jacob just read a book he enjoyed and thought huh i think that would be a cool thing to make into a tv show. and then he brought on hudson and connor and they're fresh and passionate and not bogged down by the industry yet and they instantly became best friends and wanted to just have fun bringing these characters to life. and they didn't have a huge budget but they did the most with what they had and everybody took the show seriously and everybody took the book seriously. the cinematographer worked his magic. the music supervisor managed to snag a well-known queer hit and an up and coming new release and old school gems that have been around since the 2000s. it's canadian to the core, built from the ground up. it takes russians and the russian language seriously. it uses sex in such a specific, meaningful way that almost no other show has done thus far, and especially not in a queer context like this. they interlaced every episode with callbacks and parallelism and self-references. they didn't take themselves too seriously. they took everything so seriously. there is love and care baked into the core of this show and it's deeply queer and it doesn't shy away from the horrors of toxic masculinity and hockey culture but it is also, always, a story of joy and love and happiness. and on top of everything, it's almost word for word, the original source material from the book.

like damn it's no wonder this thing has made us all insufferable and become a huge fucking success! so few productions in hollywood are doing it like this!!!

lesbian heated rivalry wouldn’t be in hockey because there are already many out queer women in hockey due to the fact that hockey is viewed as a men’s sport. the whole reason hockey is captivating for mlm is because it is a toxically masculine sport and the idea of having out queer men in that sport is surprising (requiring them to stay closeted/have situationships/etc), whereas it is not nearly as surprising for queer women. therefore, lesbian heated rivalry would actually occur in a setting like ballet, gymnastics, or some other stereotypically feminine sport (that has toxic feminine standards) where queer women are not as visible. in this essay i will

something homosexual happened to me during this episode

bakedbakermom

remember that episode of voyager where the doctor gets kidnapped and forced to work in a hospital managed by ai and is so disgusted by the status-based tiers of medical care - where the working class is left to suffer and die while the medicine that could save their lives is used on vanity treatments for the elite - that he kidnaps the chief admin guy, makes him deathly ill, and hacks the computer so it thinks he's fucking useless and not worth saving, and refuses to do anything until he changes the system?

i like that one.

The real reason the Voyager fandom is so small compared to other Treks is because it’s the girl Star Trek. The most interesting characters are all women and even when the men are interesting it’s because of their relationships with women.

You can watch TOS, TNG, DS9, and SNW without having to think about the women. What are the Voyager guys up to when the girls aren’t around? Playing cards and thinking about the their relationships with women.

We may be few but we’re undeniably sexier than the rest of the fandom.

If Prodigy decides to use J/C to explore Janeway’s psychological landscape post-Voyager and like her willingness to grow and heal beyond the trauma of the Delta Quadrant you bitches have no fucking clue how obnoxious I’m going to get

Hamilton: I want to have a party just about me. Like, no music, no dancing, nothing. Just an empty room and me with a mic, so that everyone will come and have to hear me talk.

Eliza: I feel so guilty, I ate sugar before lunch. My mum always says it's unhealthy to eat sugar before noon. What have I done? I'm a horrible rebel. I need to go call her and apologise.

This is so cute

when women say “i hate men” they mean it in the “stop hurting me and my sisters” kind of way, not the “i want to rape, murder and oppress you” way. you know, the way men hate women.
