Several of my friends who previously self-identified as bi are realizing they’ve lost interest in men, generally speaking
A friend of mine who’s identified as a lesbian her whole life fell in love with a very sweet and shy man
I lost interest in men a few years ago, fell in love with a non-binary person, and now I give them their T shots
Life and love are unpredictable
And “queer” is a great word that all of us like and self-identify with (along with our other, more specific labels), and I love that no matter what else happens, we’re still, always queer
changing your name should be free and you should just have to send them an email saying please can i change my name. and then they do it and give you three hundred dollars for your time
Star trek is so fun to analyze because it’s always like “on a doylist level the writers probably just forgot but for a watsonian explanation we can build a whole system for how this thing they never explained works”
When you can see a little extra fabric in the corners of the collar on Damar’s uniform like under it that’s his binder
they just made a new law of robotics that all robots must be kissed and cuddled and loved
But for real, if ever there was a time to be told “there are infinite possibilities, infinite wells of potential, living inside of you, you are a multiverse in and of yourself—but if you wind up living a mundane existence with love, with kindness, just doing the very best you can…that, too, is worthy of joy”. Right now. I needed that right now.
so i have this headcanon that garak and parmak actually met when they were much younger and garak became sort of fascinated with him and that’s why tain ended up making him interrogate parmak specifically, but whatever -
the point is whenever i see this meme all i can think about is young parmak tripping on research chemicals in the club and yelling in garak’s general direction and garak’s like oh my god, i love him
oh wow. I was just thinking about Kasidy Yates, as one does, and I realized that the reason why I like DS9 so much more than any of the other shows is that DS9 has plenty of main characters who aren’t part of starfleet?
It’s such a simple thing but it changes so much, it feels like a much bigger universe and it isn’t one where everyone is defined by their relationship to the definitely-not-a-military-organization fleet
in a lot of star trek not being in starfleet is almost treated as a character flaw sometimes. But no in DS9 you can even go to art school. There’s other shit happening that isn’t related to the pajama people
most star trek doesn’t even explore the life troubles of military wives
Way to go dad!!
