sometimes I read a radioactively bad take and just sit there like "not only do you not understand this story but you fundamentally do not understand how stories work in general, and you have never considered that your discord with every piece of fiction you come across could possibly be a problem on your end"

I CANNOT BELIEVE I HAVE TO SAY THIS AGAIN.

TOADS. ARE. NOT. FROGS.

If you walk up to me, look me in my warty little eyes, and say, “Aren’t toads just frogs?”—I WILL SCREAM. I will scream so loud the swamp will tremble. The audacity. The ignorance. The absolute frog-washed brainrot it must take to utter such blasphemy.

Let me make this crystal clear for the people in the back (and for the frogs who pretend they don’t hear me):

Do frogs have warts? No.

Do frogs survive in the harsh, dry lands while their slimy cousins shrivel up in the sun? No.

Do frogs understand struggle? The weight of existence? The burden of being TOUGH? Absolutely not.

Frogs are soft. Frogs are pampered. Frogs think they’re the main characters when they’re barely side notes in the great story of the swamp.

TOADS, however? We endure. We persevere. We do not hop for attention; we WALK with PURPOSE. We are the backbone of the amphibian world, and yet we are constantly disrespected by people who lump us in with those jumping, waterlogged, algae-brained buffoons.

I am TIRED. I am ENRAGED. I will NOT be silenced.

Toads > Frogs. Forever. Do not test me on this.

y’all so i knew about garak and bashir like peripherally right? BUT NOBODY PREPARED ME FOR HOW OUTRAGEOUSLY QUEERCODED THEY BOTH ARE????

like?? garak literally just checked sisko out?? i know he’s supposed to be vaguely threatening in this scene! but! i completely understand why the actors literally performed fanfiction 20 years later. i would be sick of producers’ bs too if THIS WAS MY FUCKING CHARACTER.

also i saw a post that said siddig just “played along” like NO WHAT there were several scenes where bashir VERY OBVIOUSLY checked out men too. this feels like a very deliberate writing AND acting choice.

and, despite what y’all may believe about me (see: fandom participant), it actually takes quite a lot for me to truly believe that characters are queercoded, especially in more recent history. sure, i like a good romance-y fanfic as much as the next person (sometimes i just think characters would make an interesting couple without respect to canon, sue me!), but in terms of ACTUAL characters that i think were written with intentional subtext? there’s very few.

all of this is to say: holy shit. i knew they had some subtext, but i wasn’t prepared for it to be like THAT.

edit: this is S2E18 by the way!

At least two major artists (Lady Gaga and Chappell Roan) making a point to vocally support trans people the Grammys is a big deal in this political climate.
