He/They, Just Floatin'

Also, props to Allan???

He's a doll most people have never heard of. He got discontinued forever ago cause he was perceived as gay by consumers and they didn't like that.

But I love that he had an actual role in Barbie. He was very queer coded, yeah, but he didn't like when all the Kens turned to Patriarchy. He was so uncomfortable that he wanted to abandon Barbieland all together. He knew it was wrong.

And then he helped the Barbies get themselves back. He had a pink jumpsuit and sunglasses and went out all stealthy to get the Barbies in the van. He even voted at the end to keep the constitution the way it was.

Big Allan fan over here.

My husband made an observation yesterday that Mariner and Boimler are the two different types of Star Trek fans. Boimler is the fan who knows all the lore and has the whole of Memory Alpha memorized. Mariner is the fan who’s like “FUCK YEAH Star Trek is AWESOME!” every time Kirk sucker-punches someone and makes “pew pew” noises while pretending to shoot people with a phaser.

La'an being like "I feel music bubbling up inside me, I will immediately go into my room and not come out until it has been expelled." and then immediately going to Pike to tell him the concerning news, then when Pike's having his spat with Batel being the one who has to get up to turn off the signal. My sweet, emotionally repressed girl is like "RED ALERT. EMOTIONS ARE HAPPENING. Shut it all down!!!"

Thinking about how at the start of the musical episode, Kirk says something like "I thought that was something you'd all just rehearsed, but then I started singing too"

like the Enterprise has such a reputation for being filled with drama he wasn't even fully phased by a choreographed musical number on the bridge he just thought "man that's how they do it on the flagship I guess"

Available the next two weeks only for a limited one-time sale: all 19 (soon to be 20) of my Star Trek: Strange New Worlds inspired episode posters. You can pre-order in the shop now at jjlendl.com/shop/snw.

Big thanks to everyone for all the kind words and reposts over the past 8 weeks about my Season 2 artwork! Hope you can grab some prints while I have them available. Thanks!

My dear fellow cripples: Use mobility assistance services at airports. Take elevators. Sit in the priority seats on public transportations. Get in the priority lines. Your lives deserve to be easier and I love you so much!

Barbie (2023) really had Barbie say “hey. I know the reason you hurt me is because I hurt you. I’m sorry I hurt you, because you didn’t deserve that. I know you are a better person than this, and you are fully capable of being that person. I can’t change the past, and I don’t think we can be in each other’s lives anymore without hurting each other, but i am sorry and I want you to be happy. I want you to find your identity and love yourself and live.” and then she realizes she’s also talking about herself.

she’s saying “I deserve to live. We both deserve to live.” it is one of the kindest things I have ever seen done to someone and to themselves in any piece of media ever

fan service in Good Omens 2 (spoilers)
  • making Crowley creating the stars actually canon (only briefly mentioned in S1)
  • having the first Queen song included be Good Old Fashioned Lover Boy
  • jon hamm being silly goofy as a Jim™️
  • Scottish David Tennant playing “English” Crowley pretending to be Scottish and singing Scotland’s national anthem
  • Crowley saying “if any harm comes to aziraphale…”
  • the fact that there was a rumour that Crowley and Aziraphale were an item
  • Jon Hamm in that luxurious fur coat
  • MAKING INEFFABLE BUREAUCRACY CANON
  • Ineffable Husbands dance scene @joannacorvus
  • “Making Gabriel read the first line of good omens (the book) and say ohh thats a good one.” @verdart
  • “making it canon that Crowley was high in angelic hierarchy before the fall” @nofomogirl
  • The Doctor Who (David Tennant in a fez) and Discworld references 🥲
I’m not mentioning that f*cking kiss cause that was NOT fan service

what else did I miss?

Okay. One last thing and then I will go to bed

Crowley and Aziraphale are BOTH wrong

Hear me out

I see people dogpiling on Aziraphale for abandoning Crowley and I get it. My heart is broken too. But, Crowley’s solution isn’t the “correct” way either

Because regardless, Heaven and Hell will always be a threat. They can run off like Beez and Gabriel did but then they are just ignoring the problem. Eventually, Heaven or Hell will come back and have to be dealt with. Running is not the correct choice

Aziraphale knows that and believes genuinely that he is sacrificing for the greater good. He isn’t going to put out god’s will he’s going to put out his will, THEIR will

But he’s not taking a step back to see the true problem is all of it, not just heaven, but hell too. He cannot make a difference from within without perpetuating that harm even indirectly. But Crowley’s solution of inaction also means nothing will change and they are just delaying the inevitable

Neither are the “solution.” What is the solution? I don’t know! That’s what season 3 is for

Now I’m going to go cry into my fishbowl again
