i know we're all sick of self-care being a marketing tactic now, but i don't think a lot of us have any other concept of self-care beyond what companies have tried to sell us, so i thought i'd share my favorite self-care hand out

brought to you by how mad i just got at a Target ad

favorite bug?? ?

Once in high school I went to a Bruce Springsteen concert and it was a hot summer evening so the bugs were out in force and this one tenacious cicada flew right into Bruce’s face and bounced off onto the floor in front of him and he bent down to pick it up and held it out in front of the crowd and he said “all right, okay, I don’t want to cast aspersions on your local wildlife here, but North Carolina, can somebody please tell me—what the FUCK is this space-alien-lookin thing?” and a reporter took a picture and that was the image they used in the paper the next day: Bruce Springsteen looking perplexed while holding a concussed cicada

so yeah that’s my favorite bug, it was that specific cicada

my absolute favourite thing about the kirk and spock dynamic is that the whole time you’re watching the show spock is gaslighting you into thinking that kirk is this loose canon and spock is paragon of logic keeping his captain on the straight and narrow when its very clearly the other way round. aside from being turned on by everyone and fighting like an old-timey boxer…. kirk is just like.. quite a logical, stable guy. like yeah he rules with his emotions but he’s rarely reckless or erratic, even in situations of immense pressure he’s always calm and measured. sure kirk is unhinged and insane, but we knew that right off the bat. spock on the other hand tries to hide how insanely balls to the walls crazy he is by standing next to jim and hiding all his derangement with logic. i think the reason bones beefs with spock so much because he is the only one who has noticed that spock is an absolutely unhinged individual. (jim is too busy doodling <3 mr jim spock <3 all over his briefings to notice)

Shipping a man in a canon het relationship with another man but I'm shaking my head the whole time so you know it's not out of misogynistic disregard for the woman character
