An entertainer wanting to entertain in their typical garb and persona seems logical enough. It’s meant to expose children to the big personalities of an art form based in gender performance - not sex performance. Drag as a whole isn’t meant to be mocking physical, sexual traits but rather the aspects of gender that society imposes. This gendered performance can be masculine, feminine, or incorporate elements of both, the same way that a clown takes elements of their personality and heightens them to the point of hilarity.

It doesn’t seem productive to be so worried about how entertainers would like to entertain children in their free time (in a way that exposes those children to art and gender expression in a very personal way) when you could use your time to read to children as you are, or perhaps learn the history of drag rather to better understand it’s significance in society and to marginalized communities.

how come the drag story hour dudes don’t want to read stories to kids as themselves? why do they want to do it as their adult entertainment personas? why are they so hell bent on putting a degrading mockery of females in front of kids who are largely spending every waking hour with their mothers? most of these men are supposed to be homosexual men. would that not be better representation?

Lena losing her patience and furiously berating Gwen for potentially endangering the staff members of the OAIR is quite literally the opposite of how Elias ran the Archives.

Elias used the Archival staff—as well as his Archivist—as pawns that can be readily replaced as needed. His patron offered them minimal protections at best (the Archivist’s privileges notwithstanding), and even then, he would never actually intervene to save any of them if they were in danger, much less take precautions to protect them at their headquarters. They are used as bait, as sacrifices, as currency, as objects. The listener knows, eventually, how easily he could discard them if his plans called for it.

But Lena. This episode showed us that Lena keeps her entire organization running through keeping her subordinates hidden, safe, and unnoticed by the Externals. It’s quite clear through her conversation with Gwen that such a safety risk has never happened before.

As far as we know, Lena has successfully kept all of her employees alive, watched them come and go, bemoaned the turnover rate, and then got them to look the other way while they documented and dutifully filed the horrors.

But most impressive of all, she’s kept her real work hidden from her subordinates, and her subordinates hidden from her real work—a feat Elias had no interest or desire to accomplish.

By the way, Star Trek: Deep Space Nine’s “Past Tense” (which takes place starting tomorrow) can be watched as a standalone. You don’t need to be familiar with the show or the characters to follow along. It’s also a really, really good (double) episode.

For all the merits that the character design in tfp has... ive always thought all the alt modes were really swagless. Probably because im mostly into older cars myself lol, and all the tfp alt modes are either very recent (exhibit Knock Out) or some fugly military thang (exhibit Breakdown)... Soo this is a messy draft/collage of the alt modes i'd give ko and bd hihi (ko's boxy shape is heavily inspired by his generations toy that i recently got :3)

also: id like to refine/use these designs moving forward, mainly because i want to feature these two in my cringe little original continuity... ergooo feedback is appreciated !! :3 id like them to stand the test of timee

Things I, a non-magnus archives fan, have concluded about tma by having many many tma mutuals:

gay computers??? idk i remember that being a thing at some point?

there is a man called jonathan sims and he is the most traumatized person the world has ever seen

there are eyes in the sky. idk why, but there are. so.

this entire fandom is traumatized.

again i cannot stress how many traumatized vibes that main character is giving. also im pretty sure he's dead

i have a feeling that i can jumpscare the lot of you with this image

7. the creator and the main character are the same guy???

8. why is this man so depressed seriously

9. everyone in this podcast is gay

10. something is going on with a metal pole and im not sure i wanna know what

11. seriously how traumatized can one man be

alpha eddie gets his dream job as a chef in a five star restaurant and immediately fucks up when he meets pretty omega Steve on his first day and assumes he’s a waitress

he’s actually the head chef

steve knows it was an honest mistake, but he still makes eddie learn his lesson and pay his dues as the fresh meat

eddie’s put through the ringer with literal weeks of polishing spoons and chopping carrots before steve even allows him to touch a single pot or pan in his kitchen

by the time eddie breaks down and comes to beg for forgiveness from the omega, steve has new ideas of how eddie can make it up to him…

ones that involve the alpha crying out “yes, chef” while steve rides his knot into oblivion

"You left this part ambiguous in the story. What's the real answer here?" Well, bud, the real answer is that I didn't think of something to put there, so it's a mystery to you and me both
