Happy ten years of being so old no one knows what 1337 is

One of my really strongly held star trek opinions is that the Vulcan sociocultural situation loses its juice when you make it less Nuanced. People have this tendency to either lean too hard into the Future Space Utopia thing OR they're like "boooo vulcans suck" and it's like No no ☝️ they're doing both. They're on some other shit entirely. A Whole Planet can contain both oppressive traditionalist shit & unfathomable scientific progress. They got world peace before they got gay marriage. Yknow? The thing about Vulcans is they have different priorities & the state of their world reflects these values. And it's so interesting to dig your fingers into if you'll stop being a reductive little space xenophobe for a second. Like first of all talking about Vulcan Society doesn't necessarily reflect the beliefs of Every Single Individual Vulcan like a lot of people love implying,

I LOVE busting out some space sociology but everybody's doing it wrong. Vulcans' biggest issue is not the emotion thing you're just being weird about people who are different from you. Vulcan issues get way crazier than that if you just, like, think about the implications of everything else going on here

the writers did so fucking well at portraying and deconstructing the over abundant amount that lestat in the text romanticizes his abusers. he calls it the "seduction of magnus" multiple times throughout the vampire chronicles instead of admitting he was preyed upon. when you read the books you have to look between the lines of his flowery prose and avoidance but the show took a corny over the top music video style approach and then slammed it next to a full blown ptsd flashback to make sure the audience did not have a chance to misinterpret or mock anything and i respect them for that

i fucking hated your shoelaces this entire time

next year james patterson is slapping his name on a book called "the secret lives of booksellers and librarians," which is real bold considering that every bookseller and librarian that i've met in my time as a bookseller and librarian absolutely loathes him. including me.

I was wondering about this when i saw the first version of this post

I shouldn’t be laughing, I feel awful, but I’m just imagining you addressing a person this way.

i’m so glad goncharov happened pre ai slop era

#weird way to describe 1973 but i guess it’s accurate

happy pride month to this post specifically

cliff marleau and ilya rozanov are best friends not because they’re teammates or marleau was assigned to look after roz when he first got to the raiders, but because, even though it takes so much alcohol to get him drunk, when ilya gets drunk he can only be described as white girl wasted and marly is the EXACT same way. they are in the mens bathroom in front of the mirror like “is my shirt unbuttoned enough for people to look at my tits?” “yeah man your boobs look GREAT! can you tell me if these jeans look good on my ass i think i saw a girl eying me” “marly your ass looks phenomenal and you can trust me on this as i am a well known ass man” “aw man rozzy you’re making me blush”

they share clothes all of the time, not even really on purpose, they just spend so much time hungover together that things get muddled. this isn't a problem until marley sees shane hollander, wearing his shirt??? obviously he immediately accuses ilya of cheating on him (partying without inviting him to join). shane is visibly devastated, ilya is frantically explaining, and thats how marley is the first person in the nhl to learn about hollanov

I love you guys but I think a lot of you are the kind of people who are susceptible to falling in with a cult.

You’re right. We should all band together under a trustworthy and influential leader who can keep us safe from outside threats
