My email is an endless stream of “upgrade to get access to—“ I don’t want it. I want to downgrade. I want to get less access. I want the opposite of what you’re selling.

I remember learning about the Hays Code in film school and how it made it so that any amoral protagonist had to meet karmic justice by the end of the film and going “wow, that’s really silly” and then once a week I log online and see people argue that we need stuff like that now or it’s problematic

I still have writers block for the two longer projects I’m working on so I guess it’s time to buckle down and write some porn.

this is what it feels like to post on bluesky

I have a completely normal level of love for Starfleet Academy, y'all. Really, completely normal

One of the more depressing aspects of the GLP-1 stuff right now is how utterly inescapable it is. Whatever you're doing, wherever you are, there are people shrinking at alarming rates, and endless discussion of said shrinking. There's seemingly no place to just *rest.*

I don't want to be politically engaged. I want to read books and watch Star Trek. Unfortunately, the world.

People really struggling with the idea that the Iranian government sucks but we shouldn't be bombing them can both be true, eh?

Two Documentaries That Explain This Moment in Libraries and Book Censorship The Librarians and An American Pastoral together are a robust, if imperfect, means of understanding this censorship moment. buttondown.com/wellsourced/...

It’s so fucking depressing to see someone in a creative profession use ai to advertise.

Very cool how every day the tension in my brain between “how the fuck can you care about dumb shit that makes you feel a little better at a time like this” and “this dumb shit is providing a sense of meaning and staving off total emotional collapse” is rising toward truly untenable levels

The world could be such a nice place if we allowed it. It's all so goddamn unnecessary. There's no need for any of it. It's so beautiful here. It should be so cool to be alive

all the the mighty and morally superior “West” knows how to do anymore is murder children

I live deep in the Kirk/Spock fandom and there is a conversation I think VERY few people in media are equipped to touch about how many queer women write and read m/m, with a different lens from either cishet women or queer men. we literally did a whole fan con panel on why lesbians love Spock 😂

"I love struggling actually. It makes me feel alive." -Alysa Liu Get out there and start falling on your ass!

you know. six weeks ago if you asked me i would have told you i liked the snow. that's what i would have said to you.

This looks super fun! Star Trek folks you might be interested! They also had a few other panels that I KNOW some of you would be into

I was so happy to be a part of this!!

Nothing more jarring than seeing some shit like this juxtaposed with some U.S. news at 6:30 in the morning fml

I know there's a ton of people yelling about the Discord Age Verification thing already, but i'm gonna join in regardless. These folks keep trying to do this under the guise of making children/teens/vulnerable folks "more safe". There is a huge problem with this logic.

Spoiler alert: Elon Musk will not build a colony or an outpost or so much as an outdoor toilet on the Moon. Not in ten years. Not in twenty years. Not ever. When your dipshit friend or relative expresses excitement over his announcement, just change the subject. There's no point. It's a cult.

This might be a hot take, but if parents are so concerned about what their kids see online, then they should actually do some damn parenting themselves instead of campaigning for governments to make things worse for everyone.

Star Trek is so lucky to have Tawny Newsome.

Wait, THIS is young Anton Chekhov? This? Good lord. Let that gun go off, daddy

Doing art badly is good and sacred

hehehe- couldn't resist

Trek Thursday 🖖

worth noting that the second rich people stopped being afraid of mobs tearing them limb from limb, they stopped building libraries and opera houses and stuff and started ripping the copper wiring out of the walls of society instead

Jim and Jim arm wrestling over who gets to fuck Spock prime today

What's glossed over a bit here is it took this guy who proved it like 25 years and a huge community push and tons of advocacy to make this happen. Same with guy who figured out you should wash hands before surgery. We think "why should all this obvious shit be so hard?" But it's ALWAYS been hard

I really fell off of submitting my original short stories to places at the end of last year after a weird rejection that got a little under my skin. But today I started sending them out again! Let’s do this!!!

Damn right he is

On 29th January 1996, "Threshold", the Star Trek: Voyager episode where Captain Janeway and Tom Paris turned into giant space newts and had babies first aired. Since it's #ThresholdDay we aim to answer a burning question: did Paris and Janeway fuck? If so, how did they fuck?

You know that moment near the beginning of Home Alone where the mom is trying to get Kevin to go upstairs and he says he hopes he never sees her again for the rest of his life? And Catherine O’Hara’s face hardly changes but somehow communicates just how heartbroken she is? Anyway, she was a genius.

It’s Trek Thursday and I can’t WAIT to see what Starfleet Academy has in store for us.

I’ve been memeing it up again over on tumblr and I always forget that I should post them here too

I made this over the weekend during the snow storm but forgot to post it whoops so, uh, happy Tuvok Tuesday I guess haha liking hot coco is only logical!! 🤨🖖☕

I got a couple of beautiful, thoughtful, and detailed comments on two of my fics today. They truly made my day, and I loved reading them so much. 💕 Leave the comment, friends. It means everything.

I really need Democratic lawmakers to understand that we're fed up with them simply posting on social media "this has to stop" without calling for specific actions to make it stop. We know this needs to stop. We elected you. Tell us what needs to be done to make it stop.

This is, in my opinion, not only the correct moral/ethical/legal position but also the correct political framing. Everyone can see the agency is out of control; everyone can see that it is constantly violating human rights. "Scrap it and start over" is the moderate position.

If you haven't seen it yet, please, please do. It'll hit streaming early next month, and screenings will keep happening for at least several more months.

I fully endorse this, come join us, we have literal decades of porn and romance for you.

Actually this *is* the future liberals want, the fact it's sending Stephen Miller into conniptions is just a side benefit

Shirley Jackson was right. No live organism can exist sanely for long under conditions of absolute reality.

Trek Thursdays are back baybeeeeee
