rip magnus archives crew but I'm built different. if my boss was literally all-knowing and couldn't fire me, I'd be in his office all day asking him questions about everything. I wouldn't use google anymore. I'd be like "what's the rarest kind of tree frog" and he'd be like "shut up please shut up" but he'd tell me the answer every time.

and then I'd go home and immediately call him and be like "hey elias I forgot what time I put the burekas in the oven, how much longer should I leave them in"

and he'd be like "I hate you so much. you put them in 12:42. they should come out at 1:12"

k but imagine Rocky wanting to learn about how humans became the apex predators of their planet so he has Grace “hunt” him in the biodome as an experiment and during it he thinks Grace isn’t trying or taking it seriously which is bad bad bad because this is for research purposes

only for Rocky to get more and more tired as the experiment goes on just to realize that Grace isn’t which makes him panic so he puts as much distance as he can between them and finds a (hopefully) safe spot to sleep and when he wakes up the human is crouching over him like “got youuu” and Rocky has never shrieked so damn loud before in his life

The duality of man

[dykerightsmp3]

the fact that Reylo discourse is now almost entirely 'is this ship toxic :)' always throws me off so much because I genuinely think the MUCH bigger issue with Reylo was that it pushed a black man to the side as Not Love Interest Material in favor of a white nazi. Like the issue is that shipping Reylo arrived transparently because people did not care about the black man – which I know, because the ship became popular before we even had The Last Jedi! When they'd barely interacted! If Kylo were black and Finn were white, Reylo would not be popular and it would never have become canon in any way, and I do think a refusal to grapple with that is honestly very embarrassing.

What Fandom Racism Looks Like: The Star Wars Fandom (Part One, Probably)

Few fandoms fill me with the kind of anger that the Star Wars fandom does. In fact, there are times where I’d go so far as to say that I hat

Note: I have an ongoing thread about this entire situation and the fans’ responses that fully covers the majority of what this fandom’s been

What Fandom Racism Looks Like: Weaponized White Womanhood

With that much power already, it can’t be a surprise that many white women in fandom will do pretty much anything in order to keep the statu

It's true, if Grace did have a partner or children or any other family Stratt absolutely would have used those people as a reason for Grace to go. She would have gone harder into how people would die if he didn't. Her only goal was to get him on that spacecraft by any means necessary.

But that's kinda the point, isn't it? It's not that Grace had no one at home was her base logic for why she picked him to go to space. Grace was going to space and she needed to make a logical argument. And the argument she chose was "you don't have family, therefore you have no reason to not go."

Because that's what matters, that's the main thing that would stop someone, surely. Grace is a charismatic guy who made several friends even with her in his time working there. Grace has multiple years of students and a school worth of staff who know him, he has neighbours and friends and a community he participates in. He has a career and hobbies and a home and possessions. But none of those matter enough to stop someone from going to space. They can just up end his life and move him to a remote base far from home where he isn't allowed to talk to anyone he used to know, isn't allowed to go anywhere, it's no big deal to send him a bit further.

He didn't have any relationships important enough in the eyes of their society for it to have legal ties that could complicate things, and that's what mattered. A social construct so deeply rooted in their society that those relationships are written in legal contracts and government papers, those are the ones that are designated to matter. They matter so much that certain rights are withheld from anyone outside those relationships. Grace could be as happy as a clam but as far as any government and person living in the society formed by that government is concerned he was a lonely man with no reason to not sacrifice himself, and so that becomes the pitch.

The pitch could have been anything, but what it was is based in a heteronormative amatonormative understanding of how people and society should work. And it doesn't matter whether Grace was aspec at that point, what matters is he didn't meet the standards for a person who has sufficiently participated in society, and should thus when made aware be willing to rectify this at the cost of his life.

It just so happens that an aroace person who inherently has a complex relationship with these systems by their nature is painfully familiar with that experience.

someone sent me an anon ask about rocky meeting eva and i tried to post it not once but twice and tumblr ate it both times so now im just regular posting it here

i think ryland would grow to understand stratt’s choice with time, and even thank her logic of it because it led to his meeting of rocky, but i dont think he’d ever really forgive her for what she did to him

(Ryland had to prep rocky before they touched down to meet Stratt so he wouldnt charge her at first sight)

thank you for the request :o)
