literally cannot stop thinking about the return. like imagine being the sgc right? you send a group of second-bests; people that are really good at their job, but you can risk sending to another galaxy with a chance of not getting them back. and about 80% of them are people who don't really Work Well In The System. you dont hear from them for a whole year and consider them lost, and then you get an email that they need your help Right Now or they'll Die. alright whatever you send a ship and a zpm they win the battle everyones grand. using that ship you keep sending new people there, and these people know they can go home at any time. its just another rotation to them. but they start writing home and saying that the original crew are..... weird. there are interesting rules and habits and recreational activities and food. and the most weird is their connection to the actual city. you take note of these letters about the original crews Weirdness but otherwise dont really care. and then the ancients come back!! and they kick everyone out of atlantis. well, that sucks, but it was a resource sink anyway and all you really got out of it was another interstellar war you weren't prepared for. you take this as a sign you shouldnt have gone out there in the first place and carry on with your day.
except the original crew are fighting back. theyre complaining and rallying and saying its not fair and they should get to stay. what the fuck. you tell them its out of your hands and bring them home. and they're all acting like depressed little lizards, and oddly enough Elizabeth Weir - the token "normal person" you had put in charge of these outcasts - is the most depressed of the depressed little lizards, and she doesnt leave her house the entire six weeks. and the one time she does leave her house, she, her flagship team, and the fucking DOCTOR of all people steal the weird little ship and go fight the replicators to retake atlantis.
fine. whatever. they can have their city in another galaxy. its not like they ever listened to you in the first place.

im having a lot of thoughts today so i'm making it everyone else's problem sharing it with y'all but i keep thinking about how so much of rodney's character SCREAMS deeply closeted gay man??
like i think rodney's main issue in life (aside from being a genius child prodigy in a public high school in the 80s bc let's be real that wouldve Done Numbers on his mental state) is he Does Not Know the difference between Admiration and Attraction
when he sees a woman he admires and looks up to he assumes it has to be attraction, and Men are Supposed To Act a certain way around women, so he tries to do that and of course it fails horribly bc one- his idea of how to act around women is founded in extreme amounts of sexism and two- he's not actually attracted to them and is doing a terrible mimicry at it
like when you look at how he acts around sam, for example. everyone has seen that gif set of sam saying she hates him and rodney thinking they're flirting (which totally sells the idea to me that rodney has mostly if not exclusively had hate sex)(and also that his parents hated each other and fought constantly so that's his only example of "romance") right and we've all also seen that gif set of rodney admitting he's jealous of sam because she's brilliant and i think when you take those two conversations and put them side by side it's really easy to see a man who Is Not Attracted To Women but doesn't know how to act around them except through attraction so he takes all of these criticisms and anger towards him and assumes it has to be flirting because that's what men and women are supposed to do, you yell and scream at each other then have sex about it then do it all over again.
and on the flip side, i think when he sees a man he's attracted to, he assumes it Has To Be admiration because he thinks that's the only way he's allowed to feel towards other men (that or jealousy, which we also see a lot of) so instead of just having a crush on someone he feels the need to defend why they're so cool and amazing and perfect and wonderful because they HAVE TO BE because if they're not why else would rodney "admire" them or be jealous of them?
and i think this HEAVILY plays into how rodney sees john. rodney can't fathom his feelings for john as attraction which means it HAS to be admiration/jealousy and we do see that very often, ESPECIALLY around women. rodney looooooves to bitch about how john gets all the women but when rodney does have a woman actually interested and trying to pursue him he freezes up and stumbles and has no idea what to do or where to go (see: the brotherhood and inferno) rodney constantly goes off about how cool and suave and charming and a ladies man john is and those of us who have eyes and ears are very aware that john is None Of Those Things, and i think rodney's insistence that he is comes from the fact that rodney cannot comprehend that what he feels is attraction and because of his own deeply rooted internalized homophobia he NEEDS john to be this Prime Example of Male Perfection because why else is rodney obsessed with him? why else does rodney want to be around him all the time? if johns not this perfect example of a man, what does that say about rodney and his desire to always be with john?

Apparently the US is starting a Stargate Program but it's AI garbage? No one wants this, no one asked for this

I just want to point out the fact that I had a dream that Jacob Carter cut my hair last night.
Just want to clarify that my hair is indeed in need of a big cut due to split ends, and I am going to be cutting it from waist length to shoulder length soon (donating it to charity) so that’s why needing a haircut was in my head, but why Jacob, I’m not sure 😭
Idk I was hanging out with Sam (as you do) and Jacob showed up and I was talking about my split ends and he started trimming it💀
My dreams can be so weird

There are plenty of shows I don't watch because I'm just not interested. But on the other hand, there are also a lot of shows I don't watch because I know I'd get way too into them, and I just don't have the time

a) why does Stargate keep going out of its way to require child guest stars? Many shows will bend the plot to avoid having to have one for too long; they seem to bend the plot specifically to include them. Most of them are pretty good, but—why?
b) Specifically, why did the alarming young lady in 2x10 ��Bane” have a biohazard symbol on her baseball cap? I mean it fit the plot of the episode but how did she know? Is she just a big fan of biohazards and that’s why she got along so well with infected!Teal’c?

do you ever think about the ancient genii? cowen said they were a major superpower in the galaxy and were spread far and wide before the wraith fought back. and there are abandoned genii bunkers on multiple planets (its heavily implied that the trio one wasnt the first one they found). but how could the rest of the galaxy (like the athosians) believe the farmer act? did the ancient genii go by a different name? did everyone believe they had been wiped out and were clawing their way back up the socioevolutional chain? theres a huge gap in that lore and i want to KNOW
the writers were so bad for giving us the coolest fucking set up for a pegasus society and then Never Elaborating again. as much as i love the war crimes they could've just made a show exploring different cultures in pegasus and it would've been just as cool to watch
anyways i think after they got wiped out, for the longest time the genii were just simple farmers. it probably takes a hell of a long time to rebuild to that point and even with the bunkers and what not in place, i think the demands of their remaining people meant they were forced to focus on basic survival for a while. however i think when they finally regrew to a point of being able to continue their work, they decided it was safer to keep it all a secret. harder for the wraith to know they're a threat if no one in the galaxy knows they're a threat ya know?
