So obviously a biblically accurate moth must be a mysterious and unknowable destructive entity who goes around eating the rich(’s property), right?

Even though his name anagrams to Liberal Cargo, I’m going to have to say Gabriel Lorca. I am not comfortable with his code of ethics.

That being said, I’m very aware I’m taking the easy way out with this answer. Since I haven’t seen any of Enterprise, Archer would be the second-easiest answer. If I had to sort Kirk, Picard, Sisko, and Janeway, I really would be here all night. 

I didn’t think I was going to like Kirk so much and a while ago was inclined to place him at the bottom, but I really have fallen in love with TOS, and it’s hard to love the Triumvirate dynamic without him. (I’ve also been entirely influenced by the blogs I follow, so I’ve just spent way more time with Kirk lately than any of the other captains. At this point I’m not sure if I like TOS Kirk, or Tumblr’s version of him, or if they’re the same.) I can’t really judge AOS Kirk, as I’ve only seen Beyond (and, uh, really mostly know fanfiction AOS Kirk, who seems lovely, but wouldn’t necessarily be borne out by canon material), and I’ve heard very negative things about his characterization in the Abrams films (but haven’t seen them, so can I judge by hearsay?) He would, I guess, be an easy answer after Lorca and Archer, but again, that’s not the tough question here.  

As series enjoyment goes, it’s TNG next, then DS9, then VOY, so theoretically that would impact how I rank the captains, but I think Janeway’s great and a badass, and I have issues with putting her last. (Captains are never my favourite character in the series, but she’s the highest up on any list. Does that just mean that I connected less to a lot of the other characters in general? Hard to say.) I also think Sisko’s great, warm, funny, and an awesome dad, and I don’t want to put him last either. (Not only are they both fantastic characters, but there’s definitely some baggage associated with putting either Janeway or Sisko last, because we know that both of them tend to be judged unfairly due to culturally pervasive sexism or racism, and how much of that is internalized on an individual basis is anyone’s guess).

So that leaves Picard, who for a long time was clearly my favourite captain, because I started this whole thing on TNG, and I still like him a whole lot, and Patrick Stewart is so good, and I love his friendship/sort of relationship with Crusher. But maybe he could actually be, slightly, my least favourite of the four? Of course, now TNG is the series I’ve seen the least recently, so I’m thinking that’s influencing my feelings, and if I do a rewatch he could be at the top again. Right now he exists in a liminal state where he could be both favourite and least favourite. He’s Schrödinger’s Captain.

So, that’s why I shouldn’t drink a goodly amount of beer and then answer asks. King Solomon I am not.

Please rate this moth I saw at work. My coworkers disagree with me on whether the moth is cute or not (it is)

Not a very riveting one, sorry to say.

Let me begin by saying that Moth (the moth-girl design) who appears on this blog from time to time was made…4ish years ago? Maybe 3? She was designed with the help of @milkypancakess

I was on vacation with a bunch of other formerly Overly Sarcastic Productions moderators, and inspired by Hiromu Arakawa’s cow character I took Moth and simplified her into what would become Blob Moth, which at the time was a stand-in for myself instead of a separate thing.

I drew that early version of Blob Moth a bunch, until one day I woke after a night drinking and thought, “Biblically Accurate Blahaj.” I drew that the very same day, and from there thought it would be fun to draw a “Biblically Accurate Moth.” I literally messaged @mystery-incorporated-whore that day, saying, “If I ever make a tumblr, Biblically Accurate Moth could be a fun username.”

Do you know how to deal with trans imposter syndrome? Like, I want to be a girl more than anything but I am so afraid I'll wake up one day still feeling like a guy at my core and I've just been pretending. I'm on hormomes, but I've only been on them for 6 months so I'm still boy shaped. And I still don't know how to dress myself and none of the clothes hide how much they aren't maden for me. I just don't know what I'm supposed to do except wait and hope I don't regret it. Any advice?

No worries, I like the real questions.
