Ugh, and the episode after that is “Regeneration,” which is just a terrible concept from start to finish. It relies for its dramatic cold open solely on the viewer having seen First Contact and knowing the Borg aren’t “supposed” to be here, there’s zero tension because the Borg have been done to death by this point and we know they’re not going to assimilate the Federation in the prequel episode, and it retroactively cheapens the plot of episodes like “Q Who” because it makes future encounters with the Borg predestined rather than being an outcome of Q’s particular brand of shenanigans or Federation exploration. It’s just a thoroughly stupid idea for an episode from start to finish, and makes me long for the days when Star Trek fans weren’t allowed to be writers on Star Trek shows.

#enterprise #i'm actually just straight up skipping this one #i can't sit through it

ok someone please correct me if i'm wrong but am i weird for thinking those 'audiobooks don't count as reading' posts are ableist as fuck????

#ramble #my first thought was like: how is this even a debate what about blind people. not every book comes in braille but MOST have an audiobook #or dyslexic people #you still enjoyed the book!! you still absorbed it!!! you got EXACTLY the same thing as people who read the words!!!#how does it not count????#i guess you miss out on the 'learning new vocab' you get through seeing the words but also #i don't really do audiobooks but i do a lot of podcasts esp fiction podcasts #and i have ABSOLUTELY picked up new stuff from there that helps with my writing #someone please explain how this is even an argument of COURSE it counts????#idk in my opinion finishing a book means 'i put the words in my brain and i thought about them and i enjoyed a story'#not 'i held a stack of paper in my hands for a bit'#i'm v lucky that i do have time to sit and read. and whenever i commute anywhere it's public transport so i CAN bring a book with me #but if i didn't have the free time or had to drive for hours everywhere i would be STOKED to still get to enjoy books #it's been REALLY bothering me lmao idk why i feel so strongly #for some reason it's giving the same energy as like. being told you can't take a comic or manga from the library bc it's not a 'real' book #of course it's a real book it's a story somebody wrote down #i can see this spiralling into 'if you have a kindle you aren't reading'. you have to sniff the paper. feel the papercuts

non-comprehensive haruhi autism creature comp

i mean just look at him she's literally

#kiss kiss fall in love :|#i'm not kidding there's so many panels like this. haruhi is a little bug with big beautiful brown eyes. literally (O_O)#nobody else is drawn like this in the manga it's just haruhi #still going through the manga yippee #ohshc #ohshc manga #fujioka haruhi #haruhi fujioka #i am a big believer in autistic haruhi and this isn't the biggest reason but it is a funny reason to me #also hitting haruhi with the he/she headcanon beam. i can't help it but also i mean. maybe a little more justifiable with haruhi than anyon #else i can think of. like just look at the show idk read the manga #ouran high school host club #ouran koukou host club #woahh fancy fancy pulling out all the stops (i guess)#eugh i should stop writing tags my laundry's been done sitting in the dryer for like. 20 minutes #also sorry these images are so small and busted i uh didn't look at them before posting and am not going to fix them <3

I'm not getting into The Giving Tree discourse...

#personal #delete later #idk i just saw a post of the “alternate ending” comic on my dash and everyone praising it as an improvement and “fixing” the original #which i kinda resent #while tulli and i was taking my nephew to a book store we walked around the kids section and found the giving tree and we read through it #and i was so stricken by how profoundly sad it is. it's not a happy story #in the end both versions tell the exact same lesson. but one flat out tells you and the other makes you sit with a pit in your stomach #and work to find the answer #i dunno it's kids literature but kids literature is important. i don't wanna discredit anyone's bad memories with the book but also i think #sometimes it's ok to make kids a bit sad and upset with fiction.#tweet that goes “what if romeo and juliet didn't kill themselves and explained to the audience that family feuds are bad”#idk you can't seriously read the original book as an adult and say it's glorifying self-martyrdom #when the final drawing of the book is of an old tired man sitting on arotting stump with his hat fallen to the ground #again i don't wanna invalidate people's feelings if they enjoy the alt version i think it's really nice too. but the original has its #purpose too. imagine if at the end of the lorax they show that the boy did it and replanted the world happy ending #wait they did that in the movie shit #i dunno i just love somber children's literature. tulli and i are talking about moomin right now and how the series ends with the moomin #family just leaving. and nobody gets to say goodbye to them. their friends have to find ways to live with the emptiness they've left behin

SHERLOCK | Martin Freeman as John Watson

#another episode that completely shattered my nerves #poor john #God bless you with such incredible strength because I doubt I could have endured all that you went through #It’s like the war wasn’t enough #I can't help but point out the scene where john sits on a gurney chair hair messed up #as mary rants with a gun pointed at him completely oblivious to who she’s talking to #In that moment you see the pain in his eyes #and this scene at the airport is heartbreaking #It contains a whole universe of unspoken words yet it is also full of silent beauty #but in moments like this words seem superfluous because they can understand each other without them #martin freeman #benedict cumberbatch #mf/serial #bbc sherlock #john watson #sherlock #sherlock bbc

wild that qimir/the stranger serves both cottagecore, with his cozy little cave & his crockpot & his DIY welding crafts, & carnagecore, with his wholesale slaughter of seven out of eight jedi

#my man really said listen #i have hobbies outside of killing people #like you can't convince me this man doesn't raise space chickens #leslye herself could tell me he doesn't & i would very gently tell her she's wrong #& then very ungently make her sit through my 78-slide powerpoint about why #i bet he is making osha collect space eggs as we SPEAK #the acolyte #qimir #star wars qimir

Imagine if your chronically single ass gets kidnapped and the first thing the ringleader of it all does is start talking about how incredibly beautiful his boyfriend is

him introducing his scowly-ass mean boyfriend: isn't he beautiful

me: S H O O T. M E.

I know this is so And Then Everyone Clapped, but when me and Mr. Hugo were taking a walk together, he stopped me for a few seconds to gaze wistfully through the front door of a restaurant, and someone popped out while we were walking away to Invite Him Inside

#I've been to that place once and they have a Resident Puppy so it makes sense #I'm gonna take him back there and I'm gonna sit him in a booth and put a bib on him. let's fucking go #THIS SHIT IS SO FUNNY... HE CAN DO WHATEVER HE WANTS I GUESS #if I bring him to a drive through someone will give him his own order. if I walk by a restaurant he is invited in.#do you think if I took him to the bank they'd give him a loan? zero interest?#maybe they'd hire him.#sergle.txt #I need you to understand that golden retrievers get handouts and free passes like it's a superpower. I can't stress enough #the special treatment that he gets wherever we go

If it’s doable could you make a poster of Spy sat on top of Engie’s lap? Spy’s legs are crossed and he has a flirty smirk on his face, meanwhile Engie is just a flustered mess. They could be sat down on any crate or chair it don’t matter.

#getting through these slowly...#you can't really see the crate but theyre sitting on it i swear!!#fighting for my life with engies face...#ended up making him cover it with hat...#spy being a tease AGAIN #tf2 #engiespy #tf2 engineer #practical espionage #tf2 spy #napoleon complex #tf2 engiespy #engineer x spy #spy x engineer #my friend was watching me make this and i kept goofing around

But totty don't need to know that lol #choro: ''you can get a needle inserted in you for hours at a time but can't sit through one 1 min vaccination??''#ichi: ''it's not the same fappy.

The "my wife is so going to nag me when I get home" vibe is strong on this one 😂

#ace of diamond #diamond no ace #diaya no ace #dna manga #dna spoilers #dna #sawamura eijun #miyuki kazuya #kuramochi youichi #maezono kenta #miyusawa #misawa #kuramochi looks like he's telling Miyuki he's dead and zono being confused #let's forgive zono guys he's new and still can't pick up the gay vibes 😂#do you think Miyuki actually sits through Sawamura's nagging and probably listens to him?#I think he does listen I mean #when Sawamura complained about Okumura Miyuki deal with it himself

Off topic, but I wish I knew more about music theory so I could put my finger on why the songs in a direct-to-video Don Bluth sequel with a 46% rating on Rotten Tomatoes sound so much better than the theatre release intended to celebrate the 100th anniversary of one of the most influential film studios of all time.
