The freaking Owl House hyperfixation is slowly coming back to me, so I’m gonna post some old fanart that I did for it back when the finale first aired. I’m lowkey still proud of it. The perspective sucks, but I think I did good drawing Luz and Stringbean. They look pretty consistent with their designs in the show.

I might make more fanart soon, we’ll see how long this lasts.

Proof that if you throw enough pasta at a wall something will stick. Also we’re looking amazing on the Spirk mindmeld front

Watched the new episode of Strange New Worlds and I realized my issue with the show so far.

In my opinion, there's too much focus on romantic relationships between characters, and not enough focus on developing the characters, introducing new concepts or phenomena, social commentary, world-building, or pushing the envelope. It's basically a romance show with a little bit of science fiction sprinkled in and that was never the point of Star Trek.

And I'm not saying Star Trek has never had any romance or that there shouldn't be any romantic relationships in Star Trek or that Strange New Worlds doesn't do any of the things I mentioned above. I'm just saying the amount of romance per season of SNW is higher than previous Treks because the seasons are so much shorter, and that as a result, they don't spend as much time on other things that Star Trek is known and loved for.

I've really been trying to give it the benefit of the doubt, and the first season was pretty solid and really gave me hope. But now that we're in the third season, it just kinda feels like every season is some variation of: Pike's Romance! Silly Hijinks episode! Spock's romance! x3 Let's give one of the characters some development! Interesting plot point that we'll never come back to! Special episode featuring Jim Kirk! THE GORN!!!

And it's not fun anymore :/ It's not inspiring, it doesn't give me hope, it doesn't make me feel things and that makes me sad, because I love Star Trek so much and I don't like to feel this way about it.

Edit: TLDR basically the issue is Strange New Worlds is trying to be Star Trek and a romance show and not really committing to either and it suffers for it. It's not that you can't do SciFi Romances, but SNW doesn't do either of them particularly well because the studio seems more focused on ratings, mainstream marketability, and how people will react than telling a good story so it never really leans in. That is something that negatively impacts a lot of the new Treks, which is unfortunate because a lot of the characters and plots have a lot of potential for making a good series but it gets squandered.

snw is so good but the price is heterosexuality

Glad that Star Trek Strange New Worlds has emphasized my favorite bit of Spock canon. His ancestor is Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. I wonder if he has read the Sherlock Holmes novels... or its adaptations.

Bonus points that this line was dropped in an episode where La'an is pushing the prototype Holodeck to its limits. What could possibly go wrong?

Me watching ‘Wedding Bell Blues’: It’s so sweet Spock and La’an are becoming better friends :)

Me watching ‘A Space Adventure Hour’: :/

[nonbinaryloser]

[nonbinaryloser]

i am SO fucking pissed at the snw writers rn

[nonbinaryloser]

La’an stand behind me, I’ll protect you from the unnecessary Spock romance plotline!

[nonbinaryloser]

SNW writers stop trying to push La'an / Spock, stop trying to make Spock a playboy!!

SNW season 3 episode 4 liveblog (spoilers ahead)

yay a holodeck episode!!

lol why does the description remind me of the tng ep where hologram moriarty became sentient

lmao wtf is this opening, is snw making fun of tos or what

yep, tos parody credits

more spock and la'an dancing!

"violence and relaxation seem to be popular" sdfhgkdshfkdshfdskfhksd

spock/la'an???

ok i assume this holodeck test is going to go so horribly wrong that starfleet doesn't try to implement them again until the tng era bc holodecks were treated like brand new technology in tng, this is clearly the tng holodeck grid, and the enterprise in tos didn't have a holodeck

"detective spock doesn't watch television" "so he's a communist?" LMAOOOOOO

ok if we're gonna be forced to watch spock/chapel and spock/la'an can we at least also get spock/uhura? please?? i could fully believe they had a brief romantic relationship which ended amicably and they remained friends for many years thereafter

ohno the holodeck safety protocols are off again, what a surprise

ohno they're trapped with no way to communicate with anyone on the outside or escape the holodeck, what a surprise

poor scotty is having quite a day lol

"mister scott, i'd like to talk to lieutenant noonien-singh" so would he pike, so would he

i'm loving the scotty and uhura interactions in this episode lol

IT WAS SPOCK THE WHOLE TIME WHAT

have i mentioned how much i love wee baby scotty

i look forward to watching spock/la'an crash and burn lmao

LMAO HE TRIED TO DO THE RIKER LEG THING OVER THE CHAIR BUT THE BACK IS TOO TALL
