a show doesn't necessarily have to be ABOUT queerness to BE a queer show. it's a cultural dialect that cishets don't quite speak.
edit: i gotta clarify that the shows do indeed still have to have actual queer characters in them to count
#our flag means death#and yeah i'll say#the owl house#not just in the fact they are stuffed to the brim with queer characters#or their stories of self-transformation into who you truly are#or even that they're about outsiders finding community amongst each other#though those things certainly factor#it's that the queerness cannot be disentangled from the story without costing complexity#luz has to be neurodivergent and queer. if she wasn't the story would be about someone else#am i making sense? is this microphone on?#a couple others of note are#killing eve#renegade nell#and star trek#which cannot be made straight despite best efforts#conversely heartstopper and first kill are not queer. but that's another essay.

hello it is me, Bridgerton opinion-haver (listen I didn't think this was who I was either); I think they should let Cressida do some murder, as a treat (to me). I think Francesca and Michaela will be cute as hell, and I think Eloise needs to pull her whole head out of her ass. Also would love more Kate on a horse For Reasons.
#bridgerton opinions#sorry to my mutuals I think this is mostly out of my system now and ill be back to posting about normal things#like carrie-anne moss#and star trek

Has appeared in so much fan content that it's become unclear if this is fanon or just buried somewhere in the mountains of canon/semi-canon/retconned content
levels of headcanon:
This is heavily supported by text/subtext and is likely what the creators intended for me to get from this
this is sort of supported by the text and could, conceivably be what the creators intended for me to get from the text/subtext
there is no evidence either way
there is slight evidence against my headcanon, but I don’t care
I’ve stopped giving a crap about canon
#this is especially true in really old or extremely extensive fandoms that have multiple forms of media#looking at you Avatar#And Doctor Who#and Star Trek#And literally all of DC and Marvel#I know of so many animes that fit this too lmao

Vulcan teen on Vulcan [tiktok] saying "I have just lost track of my father in the grocery store." The camera turns to show the viewers the grocery store in which almost every single older middle-aged man has a bowlcut and long robes. Camera turns back to show the teen's face which is expressionless and yet communicates all it needs to.
#vulcans#I don't think all Vulcans dress the same and headcanon that there's a buunch of different styles on Vulcan#BUT I DO think that older middle aged men flock together regardless of species#and that it's funny that Vulcan has like The Vulcan Hair[tm] - why'd they do that to themselves HEHEHE you're lucky your dad's telepathic#I really wanna see fashion subcultures for other plaaaanets in star trek#I wanna see Klingon Goth#I wanna see fashion styles specific to that species because of that species' culture#like how we have niche niche fashion trends#the other day I thought about it being Vulcan counterculture to do your makeup as if you've been crying#popular with teens but adults do NOT like it

When I was a teenager and still on Neopets I was part of a pretty big Star Trek guild and eventually became part of its council, with the solemn duty of creating weekly polls. Well one day I created the poll "Which would win in a fight? Borg Cube or Death Star?". Naturally, since this was a Star Trek guild, the answer was overwhelmingly "Borg Cube", but someone did have the rationality to point out we were biased.
So I look up a pretty prominent Star Wars guild and message one of their council and ask them to poll the same question and get back to me in a week. They do, and naturally the fuckin geeks said "Death Star".
So then I look up a Stargate guild and messaged the lead council member, saying the same thing, and they get back to me almost immediately saying that the Death Star would immediately one-shot a Borg Cube but they would never be able to do it again to another Cube. And I took that wisdom back to my guild and we were mollified, and for one moment the Nerd World was peaceful.

This brings me back to the many world theory (with every decision you make the universe splits/another reality opens) which means that there is certainly a reality it did happen
The Thing About that Unaired Kiss in “Hunters”
The thing about that kiss in “Hunters,” filmed but never aired, is that if it had aired as originally planned, every single episode after that point would have played out differently. Every single one. Every interaction between Janeway and Chakotay after that point, whether consciously romantic or not, would have had a subtext. To be honest, every interaction pretty much did have a subtext, which is why there were so many J/Cers in the first place. But after that point, the subtext would have been an acknowledged subtext rather than one we fans were reading into the scenes whether RB and KM were playing it that way on purpose or not.
Just think about that for a minute.
How different would “Unforgettable” have been if there had been a J/C relationship on top of it? How different would “Night” have been, and “Timeless,” and “Counterpoint?”
How much more powerful would “The Fight” have been if we knew, if it had been acknowledged instead of built up in our heads, that Janeway was asking her lover to possibly sacrifice his sanity to save them? And how much more moving his quiet and courageous acquiescence?
Would “Equinox” have brought them closer together, or would it have broken them?
Would “Fair Haven” and “Spirit Folk” even have happened, or would we have gotten a much more in-character holoprogram for the Captain? Maybe one in which she is a pirate queen, or an early 20th Century adventurer? Or a super hotshot WASP pilot in WWII, maybe one with a handsome lover in a different branch of the service?
Would the clasped hands on the Bridge in “Unimatrix Zero” have meant even more? Would “Shattered” have ended very differently?
Would the series have ended very differently?
I think about these things. I wonder, and I wish, and I think about these things.
There’s an alternate universe of stories to be told here, from the farce of the crew finding out one by one, to the drama of the moments that almost tore them apart for good, to the powerfully uplifting ending, in which they realize that their reliance on each other, their love and care for each other, kept them alive and sane and human in a part of the Universe that would have irrevocably changed them if they hadn’t had each other to keep them grounded and healthy.
So many possibilities.
Intriguing, isn’t it?
