Welcome to the Church of ManPain and Feels. Bucky Barnes, H50, Stargate, Star Trek, Tolkien, soccer and hockey. Enjoy the feels!
(32-year-old female named Logan forever crying into pancakes about Bucky Barnes. Currently clearing out the ~3k posts in my drafts because I'm baaaack.)

I love going in the moby dick tag because like once a month you'll have someone be like "oh my god. This book is incredible. Why did I think this would be boring. This book has changed my life."
Truthfully one of the most insane things to me that tumblr users have ever done is transform Dracula from a book about the Victorian scooby gang trying to defeat a vampire into a tragic time loop (which in turn makes the story even more of a gothic horror in my opinion) via the existence of Dracula Daily
Like what do you mean every single year the Harkers, the suitor squad and Van Helsing are forced to relive the worst year of their life
Sure they win in the end but over and over they are forced to loose the people they love, be striped of their personhood and fight what must have seemed like an impossible battle.
And nobody is even aware of this time loop except us and we just feed into this narrative. “Oh my friend Jonathan has just sent me another letter let’s hope this goes better than last year ;)”
And from a literary analysis standpoint this whole change is inane because it frames the book in an entirely new light. There is a meta layer of horror being applied to the book that was never possible before.
How many years will they suffer like this before someone realizes something is wrong? Before someone gets déjà vu just a few too many times?Before Jonathan and Mina realize they don’t know what their son looks like all grown up? How many years before they are free?
like. i'll leave this alone. but HOW are historical romance books not sexualizing the fall of breeches. literally a blowjob flap. not to mention the collars that open to the diaphragm. the décolletage with a wide neckline one swift tug from being revealed. the calves on display. the intimacy of finally seeing the real hair beneath the wig. cmon it's basic storytelling
i love making a post that attracts everyone with usernames like mozartswigsweat and bonnetenthusiast and foppishrake and petticoatsonpetticoatsonpetticoats and dandyismunlimited within 48 hours. blessed webbed site. merry christmas to us all.

❌ Does this ship make any sense whatsoever by any reasonable metric
✅ Does the thought of these characters standing next to each other make you want to chew concrete and then break apart a nearby automobile with your bare hands
i truly believe in order to make peak star trek again you simply have to get a cast of actors who have only done theatre and nothing else. you can have one token TV Guy if you wish. but so help me god i need those aliens doing shakespeare up there
#the best star trek is when they got those guys in full prosthetic makeup talking like henry fonda in 12 angry men#hell i’ll take musical theatre dweebs too. we need soldiers of the STAGE#i am being a bit facetious because ofc writing is probably more important than acting in the long run#but genuinely my fav trek is when they totally embrace larger-than-life morality plays and don’t bother about how people sound in real life#idgaf about real life. we’re in SPACE. with ALIENS
You are judging Spock’s room through human associations tastes. Remember, Vulcan blood is green and the planet Vulcan is red (Discovery even adds to this by showing red trees around Sarek’s property).
On Vulcan, red is the color of nature, so (assuming Vulcans even assign meaning to colors), red is likely a very calm and soothing color choice. Green is probably the Vulcan color of passion and/or danger.
From a Vulcan perspective, Spock’s room is a cozy cottage core with some historical knickknacks hung around.
Kirk’s green carpet, green plants, green lighting room is the Vulcan equivalent of a boudoir at best or blood-stained slaughterhouse at worst.

AO3 should have an Annotation Mode where you can click to view all of the author's commentary and thoughts about certain parts of the work. A little comment that says "I spent five hours researching vintage radio mechanics for this and didn't even end up using it" or "this is an ancient Hebrew literary technique!" would make my day
I'll love to read some star trek's original slash zines like it must be amazing to see who K/S have evolved over time, who it was perceived at the beginning...
This is my favorite kind of post >:) Since I was tagged, I'm going to drop some links for you! First, many thanks to @fanlore-wiki and OTW for all they do. None of this would be accessible if not for them <3
Here's a list of Ao3 links to individual authors who wrote fics in the 70s, 80s, and 90s! Names with a * are the most "iconic," aka who's works were most influential to the fandom.
April Valentine (80s)
Beverly Volker & Nancy Kippax (70s-80s)
Eileen R (70s-80s)
*Natasha Solten (80s)
Katharine Scarritt (80s)
Mary Lowe (80s)
CatalenaMara (80s)
Suzan Lovett (80s)
*Gayle Freyrer (70s-80s)
*Jenna Sinclair (80s-90s)
*Connie Faddis (70s-80s)
*Charlotte Frost (80s-90s)
Disclaimer: Most of these fics will not utilize Ao3's tagging system since they were imported from an archive, therefor you may encounter some dark themes such as noncon, major character death, etc. Formatting may also be slightly off.
More below the cut, including links to whole fanzines!
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
Available on The Internet Archive:
All of Spockanalia (late 60s, one of the first)
Contact #1 (1975)
Contact #3 (1977)
Alpha Continuum (four issues, 1976-80)
As I Do Thee (two issues, late 80s)
ScoTpress's archived site has hundreds (tip: you need to press the cover of each zine to access the PDFs. They look like images, but they're links!)
There are more if you search "star trek fanzine," but the search results aren't always perfect and are constantly changing :)
Next, here are some fanlore pages I recommend if you're interested in behind-the-scenes context or just browsing a selection of awesome art. These are well known zines with many publications and dozens of contributors:
Vault of Tomorrow (gen. '81-'88)
As I Do Thee 1-10 (slash, '84-'88)
As I Do Thee 11-21 (slash, '88-'94)
Naked Times 1-10 (slash, '78-'86)
Naked Times 11-20 (slash, '86-'88)
Naked Times 21-32 (slash, '88-'94)
Here is a comprehensive list of every known Star Trek slash zine, and fanlore's index of gen zines. I like the Strekzine Roster (much less overwhelming, strictly early zines) as well as fanlore's list of zines published between 1967-1970.
Lastly, here's a link to my INACTIVE tumblr blog's archive of digitally restored pages. I'm continuing that work here on my new blog :)
Have fun! My DMs are open if you have any questions!
