this post really accentuates the lack of a cheers-style DS9 ep focused on Quark's.

The fact that deep space nine is a shopping mall and gas station is SO charming to me

Ask meme alert

I was tagged by @letsoulswander, so here's an ask meme. Thanks for the tag!

3 Ships: Jon/Martin (The Magnus Archives), Ed/Stede (Our Flag Means Death), Ninth Doctor/Rose/Jack (Doctor Who). (I decided to go with two ships that have been on my mind lately and one all time fave. Interpret this question how you will if you do this meme.)

First Ever Ship: Mulder/Scully (The X-Files)

Last song: "Time Will Tell," Gregory Alan Isakov

Currently reading: Bea Wolf by Zach Weinersmith, a juvenile graphic novel retelling of Beowulf featuring a band of semi-feral children defending their treehouse.

Currently watching: the last thing I watched was S2 of Our Flag means Death. I haven't started another show. If we stretch this category to include audio, current fiction podcasts include the latest seasons of The Silt Verses, Old Gods of Appalachia, and of course Welcome to Night Vale, and I've just started s2 of Doctor Who: Redacted.

Currently consuming: rooibos chai.

Currently craving: a personal assistant to get my life in order. As there is zero chance of that happening, IDK, maybe a weekend in a cabin in the mountains, or some chocolate chip pumpkin bread.

The meme said to tag nine people. I'm feeling indecisive, so I'm just tagging the nine most recent people to interact with one of my posts. Please feel free to do the meme even if not tagged, or to ignore it even if you are. :) Tags: @respectable-username, @caffeineandwhiskey , @blasphemous-lies-and-deceit, @argyle4eva, @abbibitha, @thehappyprince1900, @onetobeamup, @starrylazy, and @wanderingthyme.

tagged by: @coffinbirds​ rules: post 10 of your favorite movies and tag 10 people

not in any particular order because I can’t pick favorites BUT

Into the Spiderverse self-explanatory. looks great, sounds great, and everyone sings its praises for good reason!  

How To Train Your Dragon specifically 1 & 2. (I simply don’t acknowledge 3.) also the “Gift of the Night Fury” short, which I adore so much. a boy and his dragon working together to make the world a more accepting space, what’s not to love! they’re iconic and I love them.  

Spirited Away my first ghibli film, which scores a special place in my heart. lovely story with lively characters of all kinds.  

Promare the color! the music! the homoeroticism between an arsonist and a firefighter who both really just want to save people so they enemies-to-lovers about it! the lampshaded anime tropes that nonetheless are treated with affection rather than disdain! a love letter to anime in all the best ways. seriously though this movie is worth watching just for the pure spectacle of color.  

Pacific Rim drift compatibility reshaped the way i view interpersonal relationships between characters for the better. the mortifying ordeal of being known only it’s not mortifying, it’s wonderful and can sprout between people of all different walks of life, and it’s used to power giant robots to fight giant monsters. what else could you want! (not a sequel. don’t—just don’t look at anything but this movie okay it’s not worth it.)  

The Legend of Hei aka the story of the cutest animated kitty ever. he’s just trying to find a home! this is also one of my sister’s favorite movies so it gets bonus points and it deserves it tbh! adorable movie, beautiful landscapes, characters with cool powers animated gorgeously.  

Wolfwalkers the style of this movie is just. so good. discovering that those beasts your father hunts are just trying to live! becoming one of them! all of it depicted in stunningly drawn movement! the whole running with the wolves sequence never gets old.  

Jiang Ziya how do I even begin to describe how much I love this movie. it’s about someone just trying to save the person in front of him. it’s about questioning authority that abides by murder “for the greater good”. it’s about breaking the cycle at its root. it’s about trusting your senses above what you’re told, about doing what’s right, about a father demanding that heaven be just to the people it reigns over, about a kid who wants a family—there are so many themes that I love to bits in this movie. plus the animation’s great!  

Everything Everywhere All At Once would you love me if i was a rock (yes) (always yes) (a thousand times in a thousand worlds yes). funny moments interspersed with some of the most soul-wrenching conversations between mother and daughter that really just leave you thinking, oh, it’s love. it’s always been love.  

Spirit: Stallion of the Cimarron my childhood, in a nutshell. honse! incredible music! just a horse trying to get back to his herd and finding an understanding of people along the way. and also blowing up that one train lmao.

3 ships

Mat/Tuon, Wheel of Time

Wanda/Miryem from Spinning Silver (it coulda been a contender!)

Kiem/Jainan from Winter’s Orbit

1st Ever Ship:

I did a similar one of these recently and after I did I realized I forgot about a huge childhood ship which was Jimmy/Cindy from the Jimmy Neutron show, so there you go, now you know this about me. I read so much fanfic for them and I ran our dial-up internet all night trying to download the shippiest episodes.

Last Song:

Need More Bandages - The Mountain Goats

Currently Reading:

Just finished the Spare Man by Mary Robinette Kowal (delightful! Not quite as good as her Lady Astronaut series but that’s a damn high, Hugo-winning bar; also the various cocktail recipes at the start of each chapter, including no-proof ones, are worth the price of admission alone.) I’m about to start Ocean’s Echo by Everina Maxwell, who wrote Winter’s Orbit.

Last Movie:

Weird: The Weird Al Yankovic Biopic. Thoroughly enjoyed it, and I know just enough Weird Al Lore to spot where they jumped off from actual facts. Also I just love this for Daniel Radcliffe, who I just know is a novelty music fan (like him, I can sing Tom Lehrer’s The Elements Song; unlike him, I have never done it on live tv.)

Currently Consuming:

Nothing :( although I should be answering my work email, does that count?

Currently Watching:

Just finished Foundation, season 1. I’m entertained by it (fucking love the trend of putting awesome Black ladies in main character roles in SFF shows, please keep doing this, television!!!) although I think my spouse is a little like ‘uh that sure is a change’ re: some plot elements. I remember nothing from Foundation- like literally nothing- so I’m just having fun watching Lee Pace eat the scenery. I’m also getting through A League of Our Own very slowly- I only have a few episodes left of the first season.

Currently craving:

Maybe I will make myself a decaf coffee?

it's so funny when european fanartists are all "how do you expect me to know american race politics" when they get called out for whitewashing, like, dude, you're making art of characters of color from american media, american politics are going to be relevant

seen some posts getting worried that ofmd will become like hamilton in that people will start obsessing over and romanticizing historical slaveowners but i feel like that misses that most of ofmd is fictionalized. like most of the supporting cast of ofmd are fictional characters as well as characters of color who experience in-canon racism, meanwhile hamilton has zero characters of color - it's all historical white people played by poc. ofmd is a comedy with a million intentional historical accuracies simply for fun (e.g. blackbeard's goth outfit) while hamilton's surface inaccuracies are just the casting and music - it presents itself as serious historical fact in a way ofmd absolutely does not. enjoying a character in hamilton necessarily means grappling with a historical white person whereas even enjoying stede or blackbeard doesn't mean that because stede and blackbeard do things in ofmd that they didn't historically do and interact with people who didn't historically exist.

hamilton is a white history told by people of color, whereas ofmd takes a few historical figures and uses them as inspiration for a comedy show with a diverse cast. frankly, comparing a tv show with actual characters of color to hamilton, which despite its casting has zero characters of color, seems really bad-faith and smacks of trying to cancel tumblr's new fave rather than actually offer any analysis of it

between jonathan being like "i can't wait to meet my good friend dracula and ask him why the townspeople keep talking about vampires" and lucy being like "this guy stares at me really intensely and says i'm a fascinating psychological study, i think i'm in love <3", i think mina's type is "cannot spot red flags"

tumblr did not undersell how funny it is to read dracula as a modern reader. jonathan's all like "why would i need a crucifix when going to visit The Castle of Count Dracula. i'm not even catholic"

My #1 post of 2022

it's always so fucking funny to me when terfs are like "how can you say trans women and women are the same thing! being born as a man makes you different!" because like. yes. trans women and cis women are different. so are black women and white women. and straight women and queer woman. and women from different countries and different socioeconomic statuses. there's diversity in the experience of womanhood? what a wild concept

Should I watch heartstopper lol

yes!

content warning for homophobia though but no transphobia happens on screen (the trans character talks about how she was bullied and teachers misgendered her but none of it happens in the present)

Top five friendship/found family moments in BBC Ghosts

1. The carol sing in the Christmas special, the carol sing FOREVER. I am a sucker for people singing together and that was SUCH a beautiful moment.

2. Robin and Pat’s chat bout how eventually your family stops coming, that was a beautiful little heart-wrenching conversation.

3. I think it’s the very start of s2? Allison’s morning, where she has a clear routine, timing the Captain on his morning run, turning pages for Kitty and Mabel, so on and so forth. It’s just a really lovely lived-in moment.

4. The absolute chaos of the moon ceremony at the dinner table.

5. The whole burglary episode with the ghosts attempting to foil the burglary without Allison around, just every bit of interaction in all of it was magical.

1,2,6!

hi!

1 - what's a song you've been listening to a lot lately? really been vibing with “any old wind that blows” by johnny cash.

she’s a butterfly in mid-july who just can’t wait to try her brand-new wings on brand-new things and she needs no rhyme or reason when she goes her mind is on what lies beyond  the wall of blue horizon, i suppose she’ll go sailing off on any old wind that blows

2 - is there an album you recently discovered and are obsessed with it now? leonard cohen’s various positions. also joni mitchell’s blue.

6 - is there a song that you really liked as a child and don't like it as much now but would still get up and dance to it? maybe “you belong with me” by taylor swift? it was my favorite song in like... fifth or sixth grade and i don’t like it as much now but i do still know all the words. 

thank you!!

@onetobeamup​ replied to your post: i was STRESSING about how to slip the collar over...

Sophie hates collars and harnesses So Much she figured out how much she had to choke herself to get out of them, if she’s Still in it it’s probably working Great

rip ip

chloe made her customary u better stop that Right Now or i Will make swatting and biting movements at you >:( mrrow of “no talk me i angy” but once we backed off she just chilled lmao

and now she’s sleeping so i guess that’s Operation Successful! i think the process of me struggling to clip it behind her head was more annoying than the actual collar sdjhgfsjkgfs
