I love the way that Star Trek fans just accept that Galaxy Quest is part of the film franchise.

Galaxy Quest is what i imagine people would be like if star trek suddenly became real tomorrow.

Galaxy Quest was voted the 7th best Star Trek movie out of 13

…Never forgetting the classic line, “Ohh, that’s just not right.”

i think “video games aren’t really the violent child-corrupting threat some parents worry they are” and “certain circles of gamer culture are incredibly toxic and can lead people down dangerous/hateful ideological rabbit holes” are ideas that can absolutely coexist

Artificial violence is not actually a corrupting influence but hanging out with assholes sure is.

also, I think we could probably recognize that like… there is a difference between a game where you beat up a half demon alien cyborg or whatever, and a game partially funded by the US military that glorifies hyper-realistic military operations in a “middle east” coded setting, where everyone with brown skin is an enemy that needs to be gunned down. Like, those things are different.

My late great grandmother kept a box of melted nails from her house as a memento from the Great Chicago Fire

forbidden rice krispy treat

@copperbadge, this just seemed like the kind of thing that you might find Neat

Oh, this is super cool! You don’t often see actual relics of the fire – I mean, for obvious reasons, but still. Generally speaking, because it was so complete and so long ago, there’s no physical evidence out kind of, you know, in the world, and I don’t think I’ve ever seen any kind of book or exhibit about the physical remains – just photographs that don’t mean much because they’re literally photographs of nothing, of “Where something once was.”

[ID: Sitting on a wooden table is a square block made of nails; they are all pressed together and intermingled, and the effect is indeed not unlike that of a rice krispy treat made of old timey nails.]

Dandelions are my favorite flower. When I die, bury me in gold and starlight.

don’t be scared to live lovingly. compliment your friends on the little things and cheer for live bands in small cafes and leave tips when you can. tell the person you saw that you really like their shirt and write cards and letters to the people you love. make playlists for people and don’t be afraid to express your appreciation for others. life is so much better when you live it with love.

Medusa with the Head of Perseus, Luciano Garbati, 2008

arbitraryimposition

I adore how she carries his head low, at her side, and not aloft in triumph. This is not a self-aggrandizing hero lauding her great deed. This is a woman who wanted to be left the fuck alone.

Also look at her body. The double hips. The asymetrical boobs. She’s thin, but she’s realistic as hell. That’s a real woman.

And the look in her eyes. Damn.

I originally saw photos of Garbati’s Medusa a long time ago, but I specifically remember this post from earlier this year. Medusa was one of those pieces that really buried into my head and heart. Sounds silly, but just looking at it gives me strength.

Today I was lucky enough to see it in person. She’s incredible. And, something that the original pictures don’t show— she’s HUGE!
