Due to circumstances beyond my control, the podcast is currently on a break. However, I'm using this time to update our Youtube archive as we gradually emerge from deep sleep like Lister.

always a little funny to me when filmbros are vehemently anti fanfiction but love to discuss film theories. Maybe my theory is that the 2 main guys sucked each other off. And swallowed

In disliking Dave Lister, generally, Rimmer had found himself with a bit of a problem.
The problem was that he did not dislike Dave Lister quite as much as he used to anymore. Yes, he still disliked him. But not quite as much.
That was the problem. And it was very alarming.
At first Rimmer had wondered if his disk was malfunctioning. He had casually asked Holly, a few times now, if there was anything peculiar happening in the hologram simulation suite. Perhaps some disk data had got jumbled in with, god forbid, Petersen’s disk, or something horrific like that. But Holly always reported in the negative;
‘Nothing is untoward, Arnold. You are not going mad, Arnold. You are definitely entirely and absolutely Arnold Rimmer, Arnold. Unfortunately.’
That could not be true, Rimmer had thought. How could he not be mad, if he found himself not disliking Lister so much, if not entirely liking him?
Something was definitely very wrong.
He walked into the bunk room that afternoon, hoping Lister would not be there in all his smeggy post-pregnancy mostly naked glory. All to save Rimmer the job of asking how he was doing; if he wanted anything, if he needed any help, even though Rimmer couldn’t really do or touch anything to help Lister anyway. Not that he wanted to, of course.
He hoped Lister would go away long enough for Rimmer to start disliking him properly again.
Rimmer’s bedroom scene with Nirvana has to be one of the most un-Red Dwarf like scenes in the history of the show, especially when you add the deleted scene onto it, which makes it come across as even more romantic and sweet. It’s like his character has stepped out of the world of Red Dwarf and into the world of romantic drama. It’s almost jarring where his character is concerned, especially when you consider Nano-Rimmer’s scenes with Kochanski in the series 8 episode Cassandra, where the writers revert him back to being immature around women and sex.
Bless series 5 for giving us a more serious and sexy Rimmer for a while in Holoship (and Terrorform to a lesser degree)
It really shows how much of an influence that Lister has on Rimmer after the accident by genuinely being a kind person and watching romantic movies around him (even if Rimmer pretends to hate them). Whereas Nano-Rimmer was still so caught up in climbing ranks - he never had the Thanks for the Memory conversation where he said he'd trade all his pips in to be loved </3
Following off the end of my latest-posted Bedford Falls AU fic on AO3. I’m not sure if this lands as I intended, but it’s just a bit of nonsense.
It had, in fact, taken a few days before Rimmer was ready to go beyond their lone shower encounter. He’d been quietly reticent about Lister around the others - not, Dave reasoned, because he wasn’t interested, or ashamed, but because the man simply didn’t know how to be involved with someone romantically around others.
It made sense, once he thought it over. He’d had no dates pre-blast, when they were in their prime - at least not after Lister had seen after he joined up - and although there’d been some hints at a prodigious amount of sex while he was off being Ace, those would’ve really been only brief encounters. No meals or pubs with mates or other couples; no walks around town or movies or picnics or chats in a coffee spot or fast-food joint. The shower frottage was some evidence so far that Rimmer was decent at that part of things… but he didn’t know how to be in love, or even in like, with someone out in public.
That night, he wandered to their door and engaged the lock, pressed a few buttons on the sound system remote, then came up behind Rimmer seated at the common table. He slid his arms around that torso and pulled him back, so he could rest his lips to the man’s neck beneath his ear. “Leave the book,” he quietly suggested.
From lips and tongues to hands under shirts and jackets, they were eventually both shirtless, him licking Rimmer’s shoulder as one hand pressed hard into his bare back and the other worked at his fly. “Horizontal,” he muttered - and then they were soon bouncing gently on the bed, right after Lister tripped him backwards onto it. “See how easy?” Arn, bless him, laughed.
Things were getting on quite well until Rimmer went a bit stiff in the wrong way. Like a board beneath him. “Hmm?”
“It’s-“ The hologram rolled his eyes. “The music.” Lister propped himself up, trying to identify it. “It’s Moonlight Serenade. Played everywhere back in Bedford Falls. Didn’t you ever hear it?”
Nodding slowly, Dave half-shrugged. “Well, yeah…” He wasn’t sure of the point.
“People shopped to this. Danced to it. Played in shops sometimes.”
Lister arched a brow at the man under him. “Did… you have a bad retail experience, or something…?”
Rimmer sighed loudly. “It’s not a romance song, Listy! It’s for being out and about and doing adult errands and waltzing.”
“Arn,” he began patiently, then dropped his voice and his head. “Babygirl… look, I promise you people back then fucked to Glenn Miller’s music.” He kissed Rimmer’s shoulder slowly, quietly delighted at how the new endearment had flushed his face. “They did.”
“How do you know?”
“Cause people are gonna people, all right? That’s the music they had. They didn’t just all stop having sex because the bangin’ side of Eurovision was decades off. Besides.” He grinned at skeptical eyes. “It’s kind of sexy. Remembering how you wore your suits, and your hat cocked… just so, and that tie I wanted to slide off your throat half the times I saw you.”
“Half?”
“Mmm.” He finished an involved, lengthy kiss, pulling back to the satisfaction of nothing but a thin rope of saliva and a desperate moan from deep in Rimmer’s throat. “Other half, I wanted to strangle you.”
“Very fun-“
“Are you gonna let me do this? All I want to do is go to sleep with you right here, but first-“ He lowered his forehead to Rimmer’s, eyes closed, and rasped a whisper, “first, you gotta get into this so I can make love to ya, sugar puff.”
The mood was poised on an edge of unbearable horniness - but also suddenly something tense. Finally, Rimmer whispered back, “Am I… cereal?”
It was a good five minutes of laughing into Rimmer’s shoulder before Lister’s erection rallied once again.
If you EVER think Anthony Head is anything less than an angel then you’d best remember that I have always been a huge fan of his and we’ve always had a little contact over the years and he heard I’d come out as Trans and was having a hard time and that I was kind of sad that the photos I had from conventions with him were of me with long hair and no binder and they were all signed to “Sarah” and so he invited me to spend the day with him at his farm and he picked me up from the station and we just hung out and had lunch and he insisted on paying and took loads of photos and had them printed on photo paper the same day so he could sign them to Jay, along with other photos of him as Giles and Uther and he literally spent five hours chatting with me and got all of the pronoun stuff right every time and then he dropped me off at the station, gave me a final massive hug, waved me through the ticket barrier and insisted I message him when I got home so he knew I got back safe. (More HERE)
I keep seeing this reblogged intermittently, despite it being over a year old now, and I guess Mothering Sunday is as good a day as any to give an update, so here goes: Since this happened we kept in touch, and he and his wonderful partner Sarah have become my surrogate parents, in fact, I just finished talking to Sarah about the mothers day present I got her today.
Tony and Sarah have spent the last year supporting me in every imaginable way. They are there for me whenever I need them and it is amazing to be part of such a wonderful family, even if it’s not by blood. Plus, I’ve never had anyone as proud of me as Anthony is, I won an award for my performance poetry, and he put photos of my trophy on his facebook and twitter pages, raved about how incredible it was and wouldn’t stop telling me how proud of me he is.
They are always there for me, if I need advice, or just a coffee and a chat. And I am so proud, and so happy, and so amazed, to know them, to be loved by them, and to love them. What I thought was a one-off event became the beginning of a new chapter in my life. They have become my family, somehow, and I wouldn’t change that weird turn of events for the world.

@do-you-have-a-flag and i discuss: the boyz from the dwarf run across the hail mary, with strong 'how the hell are you doing that' vibes coming from both directions.
the cat burns all of grace's science shirts. grace is initially distraught, but it's okay. the cat has replaced his wardrobe with far more fabulous items from the cat's own cast-offs. [this will cause problems later given the cat's absolutely snatched waist.] grace is like oh um no thank you, this is awkward, i really don't-- IS THAT REAL WOOL? the cat is like obviously 😾do i look like a guy who touches polyester?
kryten sees the living quarters aboard the hail mary and goes catatonic. then he comes back online. then his head explodes. grace and rocky are horrified. rocky accuses grace of being so utterly filthy he killed their new robot friend. lister says not to worry, they've got a spare head back on the dwarf.
rimmer is INSUFFERABLE about the existence of aliens being proven. he then declares himself acting general of the human defence army against the invading eridians. grace explains that it's just him and rocky and they're actually on their way to rocky's planet, not the other way around. rimmer quickly declares himself the leader of the human colonisation of erid project, and claims erid in the name of humanity. lister declares that they should just ignore him.
lister, inexplicably, walks around in the eridian atmosphere just fine. rimmer is hysterical and sure he'll die, but refuses to enter the atmosphere, despite being indestructible.
they discover that lister can do this when he gets hungry, wanders off, and they find him munching on rocky's food in a xenonite tunnel. grace is gobsmacked.
"how can you do that."
"aw, it's not so bad. me gran's old flat smelled like cat piss. really takes me back, actually."
"that's not - i don't - okay."
grace has a breakdown. then,
"... what does eridian food taste like tho."
"kinda like gran's burnt kippers, actually."
holly hits on mary. mary wasn't sentient before, but the power of lesbianism awakens her. she declares that she is running away with holly. grace explains that he and rocky will die if she does that. she says she doesn't care. grace pulls the dead crewmates card. she begrudgingly agrees to stay onboard. technically, she did kill them. holly is like aw come on, as if it was your fault 🙄
lister makes grace a triple fried egg butty with chili sauce and chutney and grace bursts into tears. rimmer gets weird and possessive and claims HE was the first person lister ever made a triple fried egg butty with chili sauce and chutney for. lister says that is NOT true, wtf? rocky comments that this is the most disgusting food-related human activity he's been witness to yet, and rimmer interprets this as a threat against his life and again attempts to declare war on erid.
rocky corners kryten and demands the technology used to make rimmer hardlight and immortal For Reasons. kryten politely informs rocky that they only have one lightbee capable of sustaining hardlight, and rimmer's using it. rocky says that's not really a problem then, is it? kryten thinks for a moment, then agrees.
holly hits on mary. mary wasn't sentient before, but the power of lesbianism awakens her.
Do you know how much I enjoy fandom's ongoing love for fem!Holly and how much it feels like she's the primary Holly despite the disparity in screen time? DO YOU?

M-corp is in the top 3 culturally relevant RD episodes, to me at least. Because making capitalism (to the extreme) the antagonist is scarily similar to reality
