OMG Jim and Spock are DEFINITELY the kind of couple to accidentally propose to each other at the same time

I saw this and immediately had to draw it 😂

Enamored by the way you draw Spock and Sybok interacting, may I have some more?

Aw thank you!

I added I’chaya to the mix :)

A Betazoid character who isn't in a nurturing profession, but is a tactical officer.

"Captain, I sense they know they're about to get their asses handed to them"

Also, a Klingon character who is in a nuturing profession instead of tactical.

"You are a true child of Kahless for confronting your fears and I am honoured to have helped you."

asimovsideburns

Klingon therapist: the battle against mental illness cannot be won decisively. It is a long campaign against an enemy who never tires, whose forces swell to twice their size whenever you look away. Battle against a foe of such magnitude, who occupies your very mind… every moment you survive is a triumph against all odds. There is no more honorable combat.

star trek heritage post (March 31st, 2021)

the-rain-on-your-dandelions

Now I've seen this piece in several places, probably best illustrated by @theshitpostcalligrapher and would have bought one were it not for The Tariffs, but I didn't know it originated here on tumblr.

This information would have been rather hilariously useful a couple years ago when ~my fuckin therapist~ quoted it to me when we were talking about Star Trek, and she admitted she used it with other clients who weren't fans at all. (It's apparently very effective, according to her, regardless of fan status.)

theshitpostcalligrapher

oh it's more than just that!

For one, I figured out the tariff thing doesn't really affect my field too much since art on paper as fine art, even as prints, aren't in an HTS category that generates duties. Yall can get 'em whenevs, they're sent using stamps in envelopes.

anyone can get their own print!

but not only that, @asimovsideburns is not only aware that this is a print I sell, but they get a courtesy cut of every sale I make with these!

It's kinda lesser known, but if a print design I make and sell has an OP that is contactable, I make sure they're aware and that they have a cut of the sales.

THE VERY FIRST STAR TREK SLASH FIC PUBLISHED

“A Fragment out of Time”, published in 1974. Kirk / Spock. page 1 page 2

I had to share it with you because I can’t stop laughing, and every time I reread it it just gets funnier and fUNNIER

catbountry

This fan fiction is older than the push-through tabs on soda cans.

cylonqueen

Your grandma wrote this on her Commodore 64.

I miss my Commodore 64

stoplookingup

Oh my dear, sweet children. The Commodore 64 came out in 1982. This was produced on a typewriter and probably mimeographed. And while it may seem funny now, it took more courage to write and distribute this than you will ever know.

athelind

Reblogged for that last comment.

respect your elders

ohfreckle

Children, in the olden days fanfiction was written on a typewriter, copied and sent by snail mail. Getting one one of those letters from across the world was every bit as exciting as getting a notification that your favorite writer posted a new fic.

berlynn-wohl

It’s been said before, but the fact that this fic begins with the dialogue assertion “We’re by no means setting a precedent” is endlessly amusing to me.

Diane Marchant changed all our lives. May she rest in peace.

prokopetz

The precedent line is especially amusing when you bear in mind that “A Fragment Out of Time” is not only the first Star Trek slashfic to be published in a widely distributed magazine: it’s believed by some to be the first slashfic of any kind to be widely published.

ralfmaximus

In 1974 it was illegal to send pornography through the USPS. So distributing fic like this via mailed newsletter was literally dangerous. And they knew it.
