Your hometown has “culture,” but does it have a 13 foot, bright orange, bug-eyed t-rex with weirdly human teeth

[beggars-opera]

We are not the same

[vinceaddams]

Oh yeah? Well my hometown has this fine late Victorian lad.

An allegedly real not at all shitty fake frog taxidermy that tourists pay real money to look at.

[jenthebug]

We have BLUCIFER. Killed his creator.

My hometown has this massive Paul Bunyan statue on top of a Cafe.

[coveredincoffee]

I see your Paul Bunyan and raise you The Big Chicken.

[backupmakeshiftlifeinwaiting]

Actually my hometown does have a different orange dinosaur with weirdly human teeth.

My high school mascot was a dragon, and we used to have a large, rusty, metal dragon statue on the roof of the gym until the year before I graduated. A bunch of guys from the autoshop classes climbed up there with a welding torch and welded a huge, shiny, steel phallus onto it. Then the school took it down and as far as I know never repaired/replaced it.

Thinking about drink symbolism in Deep Space Nine. The most famous, of course, is root beer, and how it serves as a shorthand for insidious Federation soft power; but then there's also kanar, which gets used to symbolize Damar's moral degradation; raktajino, which symbolizes getting to work / business as usual; bloodwine, which symbolizes the bond between Klingon warriors, and between Worf and O'brien; red-leaf tea, which seems to have connotations of smug Cardassian feelings of cultural superiority; scotch whisky, which emblemizes the friendship between Miles and Julian; probably others.

[singlecrow]

Raktajino, to me, symbolises just what DS9 is, when it's working right. It runs on Klingon coffee, an enormously popular drink invented by none of the current or former occupying powers, but rather some other guys hundreds of light years away, and even they didn't invent it they only riffed on it. Why? Because it's good. DS9 is where everyone goes to get what everyone's having, and does its best with everything it can get.

And then remember this. The Imperial need for control is so desperate because it is so unnatural. Tyranny requires constant effort. It breaks, it leaks. Authority is brittle. Oppression is the mask of fear. Remember that. And know this. The day will come when all these skirmishes and battles, these moments of defiance, will have flooded the banks of the Empire's authority and then there will be one too many. One single thing will break the siege. Remember this. Try. ⇀ Andor Season 1 (2022)

Lunchtime. Mayhem would like to suggest that she gets a little a spaghetti. She's very small! She doesn't need much!

I’ve been in a sluggish mood lately so trying to hype myself up with some more upbeat music. I made a mix of my favorite old skool 80’s and 90’s visual kei and “proto” visual kei artists. The music styles from this era were very much inspired by the hair metal, early punk, and glam rock movements. Going for vibes that are rebellious, high energy, youthful, and free spirited. 😎

watching youtube in the 13th century: why am I getting this many crusade ads. Skip. Skip. Wait, this isn't the Marie de France version, it's a Norse cover? Fuck it, I'll rewatch the Inexplicati episode on the werewolf again. ...It's banned in my region by the archbishop?????

Hope. It is the only thing stronger than fear. A little hope is effective. A lot of hope is dangerous. A spark is fine, as long as it's contained.

This is great to know, actually. Fandom has always had members who were more devoted to a piece of cardboard masquerading as a dude than to any of the amazing, complex, compelling women who actually star in the show
