Crazy that ppl actually think viktor was doing something good tho.
Dude was full on running a cult. Ppls personalities were doing 180s after he fucked with them. He was straight up possessing them.
That man was a goddamn poltergeist. Jayce preformed an exorcism on him lol

it's interesting how i'm willing to forgive HUGE continuity/consistency/coherency errors if a book has a pedal-to-the-metal, balls-to-the-wall, bro-i've-just-done-so-many-drugs-get-in-the-fucking-car kinda vibe
but if a book is merely "pretty good" and "pretty normal" but commits one-too-many subtle continuity errors i get irate

Oh hey! Do you like stories about wlw and weird, convoluted forms of time travel? Do you like supporting queer folks making cool art? Did River Song rewire your brain as a teenager?
I wrote a short story called "A Practical Study of Time" for Baffling Magazine, a queer speculative fiction mag! It's published on Patreon, if you're interested in becoming a patron of a super neat lit mag—or it'll be on their site when their eleventh issue is published in April!

Myr's cold sands and thin atmosphere are inhospitable for the unprepared. Thankfully, Noct's home base goes with her, wherever she wanders off to. It's also useful for storing whatever random crap she finds and thinks might be of value.

the more i think about it the more im convinced the way to fix the luthor retcon is just "using the female characters". that's it. we bring in the contessa (say she duped westfield by putting lex luthor's dna in there, somehow, and this is the actual retcon part. it's smaller, and doesn't contradict rots), say that it was some secret plan of hers that never came to fruition. then we get lex being as blindsided by it as kon, and we get the contrast in how he treats baby lena vs how he treats kon (his child vs a failed tool that's nothing to him now). and we can keep the superfam as a found family, with clark, the steels, and the eradicator all reaffirming their love for kon, regardless of whose 0.01% of human dna was used to stabilize him. AND we can keep his eventual bond with lori luthor. best of both worlds!
bam!!! fixed!!! luthor retcon, now with 100% less eugenics, and 100% more of keeping kon's original scifi themes and strong feelings on personhood and conflicted feelings on how he yearns for a family!! that's it babey!!! it could've been that easy!!! the key is just... its the female characters. it's the female characters!!!!

i like the concept of a "market planet" in scifi. like a dedicated planet sized come-buy-my-dumb-bullshit setup. NOT a shopping planet NOT a mall planet. a MARKET planet we're talking little stalls full of Whatever babey

cyberpunk 'fashion' is western 90s ravers not realising that the cyborg imagery from japanese cyberpunk was in fact not a good thing and a warning about loss of bodily autonomy. said rave fashion scene eventually became cybergoth
biopunk fashion exists too and it's what depressed scientists of today wear when pessimistically going to work knowing their research is eventually going to be exploited for eugenics or environmental damage. it's the next step after cyberpunk whose disasters we were warned about have already happened
hydropunk fashion also exists and it's what we wear during the summer/monsoon after floods and typhoons because hydropunk is a warning about climate change and how coastal cities particularly those in the global south are being forced to evacuate inlands due to rising sea levels despite architecture historically being built to adapt for water
solarpunk fashion is 99% of the time racist caricatures
while steampunk and dieselpunk/raypunk/atompunk do face issues that affect the present, they have more defined fashion aesthetics because the fashions are historically based unlike the rest of the -punk subgenres
-punk fashion aesthetics do exist its just if anything the fashion is whatever is in style for the 2020s lmao. that's why their fashion scenes are really unstable or people don't bother investing in developing one (it's why cyberpunk 2077 is so confusing in its aesthetic direction despite claiming to be a cyberpunk game)
Okay, but we REALLY need more punk aesthetics out there.
Like, there's steampunk and cyberpunk yes.
But everyone is ignoring the potential that hydropunk, biopunk, dieselpunk, atompunk and raypunk has
Theres so much fashion for steampunk, but I FEEL LIKE CYBERPUNK LACKS THE CYBERPUNK CLOTHING?
And wheres the hydropunk fashion, huh?
This is probably just me being weird but i really want to explore this side of fashion and aesthetics more

Audio Drama Sunday - 20th August ✨
I must admit that I dedicated A LOT of listening hours this week to the new Hozier album (which is incredible omg) but I still had some great audio drama listening!
🌲@hellofromthehallowoods (129) What a fun break from episode convention! I’ve been highly suspicious of Nimbus from the start, and I feel vindicated that he’s not a normal cat as well as relieved that he doesn’t seem to be overtly malicious. I can’t relate to Nikignik’s dislike of felines, but it did really make me chuckle when it was revealed that all indescribables fear cats… Buddy, you can fear something without reviling it! Ough and the look-in on Jackie HURT MY FEELINGS so bad!! I can’t cope with sad dogs 🥺
🦀 @thesiltverses (30) TSV is back, babey!!! The sound design at the start of the episode was phenomenal, I loved the way they weaved music in with the sound effects in such a fluid way (the river sure does rise!) And oh man, Faulkner, you fucking idiot. They know!! They all know!!! It is such a delight to hear some of my favourite VAs doing their amazing work again. Méabh de Brún has absolutely annihilated me already. I’m obsessed with this discovery that the Trawlerman appears to still favour Carpenter while the Caring Maiden seems to slip away the more Carpenter seeks her. I should have started a S3 bingo because I was hoping so badly that Carpenter would join up with Hayward and Paige!! This season is going to be amazing. I’m so ready. 
📻 @monstrousagonies (108) Mab!! The queen returns! I am ever so slightly skeptical that Apocacorp is all bluster . . . I just feel like, even if that is the case, they’re not going away without more of a fight . . . 
🌒 @monkeymanproductions Moonbase Theta, Out (finale part 1) OHHHHH SHIT!!! It’s all kicking off on the moon!!!!! I love Alex’s sweet, sincere hopefulness in: ‘We’ve been through the end of so many things but we’re still here’ 💙 Isn’t that just it! I don’t want to give away the major spoiler because the ep only just dropped but oooohhhh my god! I was wondering if this might happen and wrote the idea off. This changes everything!! 
🎙 Welcome To Night Vale (232) HELL YES. I have been waiting literal YEARS to get into this business with the Desert Otherworld and its impact on my favourite scientist and the impact of both on my favourite community radio show host. My popcorn is ready, let’s get into it!!! 🍿
🤴I finished season one of InCo by @itmeblog! This is micro-scifi at its best and if you’re a fan of extensive single-person casts, InCo does it remarkably!! I'm really looking forward to seeing how the story develops!
�� Regina Prime (6) OOF I think this is one of the most intense episodes we’ve had yet! The acting was amazing in this one, Jess pulled out a full Youtuber apology and managed to keep that edge in her voice to give you the prickling sensation that something isn’t quite right. 
 💫 Wolf 359 (48) Ugh what an absolute mind fuck! I’ve been tying myself in knots trying to work out how I would personally react and cope if faced with a scenario where one of my friends is not the person I knew but is otherwise indistinguishable from them. And I just don’t know!
🎩 @ethicstownpod (8) AAH!! Ethics finale!!! This show has been a wild ride from start to finish and WOW what an ending!! I really don’t want to give anything away to people who haven’t listened yet but I’m almost ashamed that I didn’t see this coming and if you haven’t listened to Ethics you really really need to!!! 
🥾@doyoucopypod (6) More questions than answers from this episode of Do You Copy! What does Reese know?! What doesn’t like you listening?? What doesn’t like you listening?!??! 
🐬 More spectacularly odd @patterspod P Files! It’s fun to hear the obvious mistake being made and I’m really looking forward to Ryan facing the consequences of certain actions….
I hope everyone has a lovely week!

21. What piece of widely accepted fanon do you disagree with?
in general i like playing with a wide variety of takes on a character’s sexuality but i actually do feel somewhat strongly that tom paris is not bi, he’s gay

It's 2023. Biological essentialism isn't progressive.
It's one thing if there's literally no humans in your setting at all. In which case you can do whatever the hell you want. Go make that wolf nonbinary.
But if your setting does have humans? Especially if your setting is dominated by humans? And the only nonbinary characters that we get to see, who actually matter to the story, are all nonhuman animals, robots, aliens, or shapeshifters?
You're literally just perpetuating biological essentialism and saying that you think it's impossible for a real human person to be nonbinary.
Real human nonbinary people are not aliens or animals or shapeshifters. And guess what. They're literally still nonbinary. They have real human genitals and guess what. They're still nonbinary.
Stop praising biological essentialism as the epitome of nonbinary representation when it's literally just saying that real human people can't be nonbinary because they're not literal shapeshifters.
You can have nonbinary nonhumans. But if there are humans in the setting you literally fucking must also have nonbinary humans unless you just want to advertise to everyone that you're exorsexist as fuck.
This is not representation. It's literally just bigotry. And everyone needs to stop cheering for it like it's the most amazing thing ever.
Tumblr media
[Image description start: Black text reading, "'Are you a boy, or a girl?'" in a pixely font like from the original Pokemon games. Below this are two sections. One is labeled, "Positive representation", and shows a stick figure smiling and responding, "I'm a shark!". The second section is labeled, "Literally just biological essentialism masquerading as progressiveness:", and shows a shark sticking its head out of the water to reply, "I'm a shark!". Below this split is more text that reads: "If the only nonbinary characters in your setting are nonhuman (including shapeshifters), that's biological essentialism! and that's called bigotry babey! Yes, even if you're also nonbinary!". The words, "even if you're also nonbinary" are italicized for emphasis. End ID.]
Fuck biological essentialism.
It's 2023. If you aren't willing to write main, important human nonbinary characters in a fantasy or scifi setting where humans exist, especially if humans dominate the setting, you're an exorsexist piece of shit, and you should feel bad about it.
If you try to argue that this magically is not bigoted because you enjoy the nonbinary nonhuman characters, I'm going to block you. Read the post again.

who is karai's favorite person to hang out with in the bad future?
April O'Neil herself!!!! :]
dont get me wrong she adores everyone in the fam!!!! (the remaining ones that are still kicking it that is) but there is something so relieving about spending time with oneil
(looking at blue makes her think about her own position as the founder of the hamato and it hurts.) (angelo, while absolutely wonderful in conversation, has that idolizing glint in her eye that she cant help but lean away from only out of pure instinct. sure you can argue that oneil is going to have that same idolization but karai senses herself in her. aka that possession thing? yeah karai feels that) (shes a little wary of tello only because she went straight from the fucking 1500s to scifi apocalyptic future and tech,,, scary.) (casey jr reminds her too much of her son, especially how young he lost cassandra and it being a reflection of what she has to do before the twilight realm.) (raphael and splinter are already gone)
and i can imagine that karai sees a lot of herself in april in general. being a person with leadership in a war so much bigger than herself but fighting it anyway because its just whats right. if she can fight and help people out why wouldn't she fight it?
sound familiar to you? (it should it should very much so sound familiar because THATS JUST KARAI BABEY)
