whats that one piece of Star Trek trivia you wish you didn’t know? mine is the kai opaka footrub thing.

gene wanted deanna to have 4 boobs

You're really going to curse us with a fullt thread of this huh? Everything about the Ferengi is bad. Their ears are somehow their dicks, they look like dicks, they are dicks, they were supposed to have multiple dicks and be sex gods.

senior/elderly nonbinary people. I adore you and you make the world a better place. whether you've known for multiple decades or you just found out last year. thank you for just Being. so much love from me.

this is probably the worst place to give this take but i think that if you’re asexual due to medical/chemical/hormonal etc reasons (and you could theoretically be “cured”), you still count as asexual. like i don’t think the “why” matters very much.

I do think that the funniest way to respond to schismatics whose core complaint is that your institution is changing too quickly is to take nearly 40 years to openly declare them schismatics.

my general opinion on what people should be "allowed" to portray and what topics they should be "allowed" to explore in fiction is that you can make whatever art with whatever themes you want but i'm also allowed to think the way you handled it was tasteless and should've been done differently. my negative opinion on your handling of sensitive topics is the price of admission for publicly showcasing your work. this is not a pro-censorship stance because i am not The Government

this is getting really popular so i’d like to add the important caveat that your criticism of a work is no more unassailable than the work itself. just as one is entitled to be critical of something someone else is entitled to disagree with that criticism. i add this because some of you pretend to give a fuck about thoughtful analysis and then when someone points out flaws in your argument you declare that all criticisms are valid. this is untrue. the status of a hater is no more sacred than that of a liker. get off your high horse and engage in the thoughtful discussion you pretend to believe in or perish by my blade

rolling bruce and dick around in my mind like fidget marbles bc their dynamic has so many delicious layers like… dick, eventually, finally admits that “im not you bruce” (read: im a failure) and bruce echoes him, “you are not me” (read: you are better) and dick takes it as an insult because shouldn’t he be like bruce? shouldn’t he be like batman? even though he does NOTTTTT want to be him at all it still feels like a failure that bruce is agreeing to. meanwhile bruce is like… he’s so grown up now he’s independent he’s better than batman could ever be he is my pride and joy he is the only thing i have ever done right. but neither of them say anything and they keep talking circles around each other

having anti punitive justice morals sucks because you want to say "man that guy sucks he should get hit with hammers until he dies" but you also want to make it clear you don't think anyone should be put in charge of the 'hit people with hammers until they die" machine.

"lock in" is probably one of the most important phrases to enter the public lexicon in the 2020s
