mpreg

since no one seems to be happy with lgbt, mogai, or any other acronym or umbrella term, i came up with a new one that i think is gonna cover all our bases:

mpreg = marginalized people of romantic, erotic and gender

I truly believe that an underexplored concept in Star Wars fics that involve Earth being an unknown/forgotten planet in the GFFA, hidden away somewhere in Wild Space and only found by accident, is that Earth doesn’t have a whole lot to offer. Not tech, not natural resources, not even particularly nice tourist locales compared to some of the planets we see, and the local culture would definitely shade towards hostile to unfamiliar species, just based on the way things as simple as race or gender feature in our biases.

However.

The galaxy far far away has no idea where humans, one of if not the dominant species in the galaxy, come from. Nobody knows the home planet. Nobody knows the history. There is nothing, in the tens of thousands of years of history they have in their databanks, about where humanity started.

And Earth, this stupid little backwards planet that’s fractured into hundreds of unallied governments, where there’s always a war going on somewhere and man hasn’t made it past the nearest natural satellite, where the media is no more or less interesting than what the GFFA has already got floating around over the last few thousand years, where the natural resources are nothing special…

Earth has a fossil record.

“What’s that picture?”

“Oh, it’s a common motif called ‘the evolution of man.’ The individual depictions are based on what we’ve found of the species that we evolved from. I don’t remember what they’re called, I just remember that Neanderthals were contemporary to humans, not a predecessors, but I think this one here is based on a bog mummy or–”

“You have BOG MUMMIES OF HUMANITY’S EVOLUTIONARY PREDECESSOR?”

“Uh. I mean. I guess?”

(The earliest bog mummies are firmly within the period that is modern homo sapiens, but the speaker is about as ignorant of actual archaeological theory as I am.)

I want to show take a Jedi to some natural history museums and see them geek out over the fact that we have remains from, like, homo erectus.

this cat looks like it has 1 layer of hair to go underneath his other layer of hair that's solely used to shoot up in anger

That's actually true, cats have two layers of fur, this image shows really well the difference between their dense undercoat and their more sparce overcoat because this lil guy is just SO MAD

he is SO MAD that he became the perfect science demonstration.

"Learn to separate art from the artist" the art is a kid in robes shaking his fist at the sky and shouting "JEEEWWWWS!!!"

"learn to separate the art from artist" no we absolutely are. See, the artist is deeply transphobic, whereas the art is deeply antisemitic!

the movie really undersells the fact that frodo spent half a year planning to make his departure from the shire as inconspicuous as possible and merry and pippin and sam saw him doing that, figured out he was leaving the shire and that it had something to do with bilbo’s ring, and then spent nearly as long preparing to go with him. icons

worth nothing to people who havent read the books: they didnt tell him they were planning to come with him until the very last minute when he’s finally about to spill the beans, and merry’s just kind of ”yo frodo you have the worst poker face in the shire and you constantly walk around saying shit like ”oughhh i do wonder if i shall ever look down this path again oughhwh woe” out loud for everyone to hear” and frodo just sits there like

AND and. frodo's like don't try to stop me from leaving!! i must go!! and the girlies are like SILLY BILLY we mean to go with you!! and he's like NO NO you don't get it i'm probably gonna DIE!! and they're like no no YOU don't get it we KNOW!! you think we'd let you march off to your doom alone??

okay but don't forget fredegar "fatty" bolger...the one hobbit who was like "I see you're going on some sort of quest...have fun with that, I'll stay here and housesit" and then the freaking NAZGÛL come visit while he's housesitting

Me, ready to remind everyone about Fatty Bolger: I knew there was a reason Adib and I are friends.

But seriously, my boy Fredegar volunteered to deal with nosy Brandybucks and MAYBE Lobelia, and ended up with a Nazgûl drop in and then got thrown in jail for resisting Saruman.
