This is why when we talk about “rich people” who aren’t paying taxes or who are wasting money, we’re not talking about the person who makes 1 or 2 grains of rice worth of money a year. We’re talking about the person who makes the giant fucking Costco sized pile of rice.

This is not the kind of trivia Mr. Carrot remembers, so we had to review all of the necessary footage (a highly recommended evening entertainment) and we are in agreement that unhinged, nonconsensual mindmeld is the wildest K/S moment. The Janice Lester scenes would have rated higher for us, but the actress just doesn't quite capture the Kirk-ness of Kirk.

Honestly, I'm loving Judith and Debbie's friendship. The scene with the big macs ... they've done this hundreds of times over the last 20 years. (Also Judith's hips after she jettison's the ski instructor's uniform.) Working hard to ration myself to one episode per week - watched once with my husband and once with my mom.

At some point I just know there must have been some Timefleet officer that carefully researched the era, made sure their graphic tee contained only characters that were appropriate for that specific year, month, and day, and fucked it all up at the finish line because they’re wearing a giant motif of a batman comic but the entire thing is embroidered rather than being printed.

Saturday morning, Eastern Time, is 12 hours from now. It'll be there.

Since I'm officially done with the summer exam period and I've seen my last students (til late August) in exams on Monday, I feel the need to say this: the SFA kids are exactly how they are supposed to be. I teach medical students, so all of them, well okay most of them, are brilliant, ambitious and hardworking people (who also love a good competition and winning in competitions, that must be said). They are also barely adults, so they are goofy af sometimes, they are stupid and annoying sometimes, they try to stretch the rules, they are assholes sometimes, to me and to their classmates, they can't write e-mails for shit (okay, that is a nitpick, but you don't understand how many shitty e-mails I get on a daily basis), they go through tough times. Because they are becoming adults in real time and because they are human. So yeah, the cadets in SFA? Well written, just like the real ones.

Thank you for your votes, I will continue monitoring them while I write "Kelrec is forced to drink coffee" fic, where the coffee is really the tamest thing my man experiences. You guys are sick for making me write it.
