Let’s talk about Star Trek and gatekeeping.

As an autistic person, Star Trek is my thing. It’s my obsession, my constant hyper fixation, and I can quote lore, obscure facts, and recite entire episodes. Basically, I’d crush it at Star Trek trivia night.

As a major fan of Trek, I love TOS specifically. Spock is my dude, the rest of the crew are practically my best friends. I’ve watched each episode countless times, and I know the movies by heart. As someone who’s autistic, I find comfort in the familiar and I struggle with change. And boy howdy, there has been a lot of change with the new series. Spock’s character specifically, between JJ Abrams, Discovery, and Strange New Worlds, has undergone several major transformations.

But! The thing about change and Trek is that it’s a constant. There’s the built-in possibility of change at any moment, and in order for any “true” Trek fan to keep their salt they need to remember that mirror verses and multiverses are canon, that IDIC is the name of the game, and yes, fan fiction is the lifeblood of the series. You can’t have one without the other.

Consider this. Star Trek carved out the modern fan fiction genre, and it saved Trek. The series was originally cancelled after two seasons, and was only brought back through the fan base that kept it alive through fan fiction.

If the hundreds of thousands of different interpretations, backstories, characterizations, and alternate universes that fan fiction presents, and if the hundreds of “official” novelizations exist, then new content is par for the course. Any Trek fan has to be willing to accept that lore is fluid. If a fan doesn’t get that, or tries to convince another fan that their opinions are invalid because they are fans of the new content? They’re the one who isn’t a “true” fan, because anyone that can’t accept the possibility of other interpretations and dismisses new content, they are missing the entire premise of the series.

Personally, I love SNW’s take on Spock and Kirk. (That handholding!) I love that Spock gained a sister in Discovery. I love Picard’s storyline. I love the silliness of Lower Decks, and I miss Prodigy.

If certain fans can’t accept new content and try to gate keep your enjoyment? Pull a rebel Spock: throw up the ta’al, transform it into the middle finger, and say you hope they ‘expire soon and fail.’ 🖖🏽

In my heart, Ford once went to an ice dimension and got Really Good at ice skating, and now he's absolutely insufferable about it.

#I think Ford has a bunch of random skills & everytime one comes up he has the most ridiculous yet completely true story to go along with it #in this case it involves picking a lock with his skates while scaled half way up a glacier. (he needed something for the gun dw about it)#I also think Stan would also be good re the 'Stan's Roller Skating in short shorts' lines from Dreamscapers #The difference being that Stan isn't willing to risk breaking his back for it. Unlike Ford who is already mid backflip #I know what ice skates actually look like btw. I know the blade is inaccurate. I promise. I know 🙏#Gravity Falls #Stanford Pines #Ford Pines #Grunkle #Grunkle Ford #Fan art #fanart #artists on tumblr #my art

Unstoppable villain, meet immovable agent of friendship!

I was wondering in what circumstances Charlie would just OFFER her soul to Al.

And he would short circuit as all his manipulation plans become unnecessary.

Cause Charlie cares about her friends and if they need help she won’t hesitate.

#grey art #fan art #hazbin hotel #hazbin hotel fanart #hazbin hotel comic #charlie morningstar #Alastor #hazbin alastor #the radio demon #he is so pathetic I don’t think he realises that #buddy you know what shows true strength???#being vulnerable #you are emotionally weaker than a puppy!#I love him so dearly #also Charlie!#she cares and that’s not naïveté #she’s so strong and brave !#if Alastor abuses her gift in this scenario then he’s a worm #god this show is good

i got an impossibly tiny metal model mail truck kit in my stocking & went into a fugue state until i'd finished assembling it. welcome to the world my beautiful son otto mobile who has every disease

#cc #charlie vs mail #tiny things #much like a real life LLV it was slapped together with metal plates & prayer #you can't see the cockpit in the photos (it's got a seat w/ a tiny orange belt a steering wheel a dashboard fan & a rack w/ 2 mail trays)#i broke the mail tray rack and painstakingly repaired it w/ extra strips of foil from the template cards #in true postal service fashion why replace something when you can put a bandaid on it #of all the LLV merch USPS has available i feel that this it the truest representation of our brave little toasters #in that it is bent & scratched & janky as heeeeeellllllll #i love it so much.#hall of fame #y'all really like the metal earth LLV model huh

I have made it. Been lurking since you announced it. Haven't really been able to enjoy the new blog much as work keeps me busy and I'm not that big into jjk (seen the anime, know some of what's going on in the manga but not in the x reader fandom for it) so I'm just patiently waiting for whenever there might be hq crumbs - genius anon

AWWWW YOURE WAITING FOR HQ CRUMBS I SHALL DROP SOME JUST FOR YOU OMG 🥹🥹

#I really fw the fact that you really fw me 😌#and I’ll never forget how you taught me how to use emojis on MacBook #using it right now 🥹#so THANK YOU #but yes hq will forever stay w me mannnn so crumbs will be dropped just for you #I’m glad ur still here tho even tho ur not that into jjk #true fan #genius anon 🧠!!#xoxo gossip girl 💋
