If you think Remmick's behavior in Sinners towards Sammie was in any way queer or motivated by sexual attraction, boy do I got a book you'll love!!

Join your fellow centuries of believers as you learn the racist history of white people (yes, the women too!) taking advantage of their enslaved Black victims' bodies in any way they saw fit, because they had a psychosexual obsession with the power they held over them! I'm sorry, I mean the "enemies to lovers obsessed vampire trope"!

That title is kinda creepy to me.

[creatingblackcharacters]

So is eating Black people both literally and figuratively, my dear

i'm preaching to the choir here but i keep thinking about what a bullshit decision it was to not give Seven a proper uniform. it goes directly against s1!Janeway's "we're all in this together" attitude towards the Maquis members being integrated into Starfleet, and her ongoing consideration of the crew's sense of belonging and familiarity. and they didn't even bother inventing a borg reason or something for the skintight suit. girl.

Real explanation: the showrunners are fucking creeps

In-universe explanation: the EMH is a fucking creep

[aquarterpastfour]

So, the in-universe recriminations should fall on the person who isn’t her commanding officer?

Setting aside any argument that fashion in that century had never precluded catsuits (e.g. Troi & eventually Kes) because it’s obvious male executives willed it to be so. Are we to assign all in-universe creepiness to a doctor who was not in charge of determining and maintaining proper uniform dress codes for the crew?

Was Kathryn Janeway so incapable of being a captain that she could not, in a single breath, order her CMO to design an outer covering to rest on top the suit if it was contextually creepy not to do so? Was she also not a fucking creep?

[angrywarrior69]

Janeway is a horny creep. Hope this helps

americans are sooo desensitized to guns and sometimes it manifests in ways that affect your media literacy. like remember in the first episode of sherlock when john watson opens up his drawer and you see a gun in there and youre supposed to understand that this is narratively significant and conveys his suicidality as well as his willingness to skirt rules and laws but the first time i watched it i was like oh well theres his desk gun. lots of people have those

King Arthur at a job interview: My greatest strength? Probably my enduring and boundless love for my darling wife Guinevere. My greatest weakness? Probably Lancelot's enduring and boundless love for my darling wife Guinevere.

while I don’t agree with that referring to men in their 30s-early 40s as “old man yaoi”, I UNDERSTAND why many people who primarily consume honest-to-goodness BL manga are quicker to call it that, because there is just such poor representation for men that aren’t hairless dehydrated 20-something twunks. They’re wrong, but I get why it happens.

I also understand that “middle-aged yaoi” isn’t as fun to say as “old man yaoi”, even when it’s more technically accurate.

So I would like to propose new vocabulary: Grown Ass Yaoi. yaoi that’s grown ass men. they’re not old but they’re not young adults either. you get me? Grown Ass Yaoi

GUYS PIRATING IS BAD.

DO NOT PIRATE ANYTHING. NOT SHOWS/MOVIES. NOT GAMES OR SAFER GAMES. AND CERTAINLY NOT BOOKS. AND DO NOT DOWNLOAD YOUTUBE VIDEOS. AND NEVER EVER EVER WATCH MUSICALS WITHOUT GOING TO THEM AND DONT USE ADBLOCKERS/OTHER ADBLOCKER TO AVOID ADS AND VIRUSES PIRATING IS VERY HARMFUL TO THE CORPORATIONS WHO WORKS VERY HARD TO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF PEOPLE AND THEIR MONEY. ANYONE WHO PIRATES IS BAD. BAD PIRATING. EVIL. OH AND THIS

[isuggestlandback]

I have a baby cousin who's Two Spirit.

Their parents are leftists, open minded, pro LGBTQ+, learned to use the right pronouns (to their face at least) all that jazz.

Their Auntie grew up in a remote area, little old fashioned, doesn't really "get" the non binary thing, and hasn't quite got the hang of the singular 'they' yet. But she tries.

When my cousin got injured and couldn't drive their parents shrugged and told them to quit their job.

Their Auntie drove them to and from work every day until they got their cast off.

Which family member do you think they'll ask next time they need help?

Do you want to be ideologically perfect, or do you want to help?

"the fandom is dying" no it's not. i'm here

[muzzlemouths]

in all seriousness though a fandom doesn't die when there's no new episodes or games or "content" to play with and it doesn't die because people aren't as loud as the day it first came out either. if you're still creating then the fandom is alive. if your mutual who has since moved on still reblogs a post about it every four months then the fandom is alive. if there is even one person out there still engaging in, creating for, or just enjoying that show or that game or those characters, then the fandom is alive.

"fresh content" isn't the soul of a fandom. you are.

[muzzlemouths]

so this ones resonating huh

Mary Shelley: the creature was a grotesque amalgamation of several different corpses. It was so hideous and monstrous that people would immediately scream and run away upon seeing his horrendous figure.

Guillermo del Toro:

[honeyscomet]

"theyll hate you for this" "but theyll be alive" is THE juiciest thing to me

[honeyscomet]

i will ensure you stay alive above all else. even if what i do to make it happen is horrendous. even if it violates all your wishes or moral principles. even if you can never look at me the same way again, even if you hate me for it. because at least if you hate me it means youre alive

[hungry-hobbits]

trying to divvy out kinks to your ocs is lowkey embarrassing but also feels like this

[noodleincident]

Rly rly funny to have this in an article about timmy losing the oscar to Michael b Jordan.

[freshgratednutmeg]

..........Michael B 'my kinsey six married for decades sister fanned herself and said 'goddamn' when he came onscreen in Black Panther' Jordan. (When I was describing sinners to her as a recommendation, she first lit up at the wholeass plot/concept and then went 'he plays *twins*?!!?! :D') Is 'not. A heartthrob.' LMAO Chalamet quit whining, it wasn't yours to win even BEFORE you were such a jackass about other performing arts.

[sweaterkittensahoy]

"women don't wanna fuck Michael B. Jordan" is a wild fucking way to cope that your fave didn't win.
