i do one more. for myself
content: super macho man, mr. sandman, bear hugger, great tiger, don flamenco, aran ryan
super macho man the world's most ambiguous bisexual. he is aware what a big part of his fanbase is gay people esp those who find him hot as fuck and he loves them. he's so jennifer coolidge thanking all the evil gays when he was named #1 at the title in the world
he enjoys whenever anyone tries to "secretly" or flat out ask him what his sexuality is because he takes the time to make fun of them. "i heard you perform for the many gay men in your audience-" "i do." (refusing to break eye contact until they move on)
he also loves going as rocky from the titular horror picture show for halloween. or anytime he already dresses like him on a regular basis
he has serious face blindness and due to this he unintentionally got himself into a situationship with disco kid (one sided. disco doesn't care what they are) and has multiple* girlfriends from spain
(* it's one woman and you'll never guess who. she's hitting him with the fujiko mine maneuvers)
they really ramped up the comparisons between mr sandman and mike tyson in wii but since he was his own character way before that, i'd like to believe sandman knows nothing abt him outside of cultural osmosis. he just wanted a cool alternative haircut that wouldn't expose just how emo he really is
he's the youngest of three kids. oldest is santino middle is shireen and sandy's real name is samar. yes god patterns
(btw what made me hc samar is bc in sanskrit it can mean success after hard work. that's him i know him)
he only goes to his sister for his haircuts because she's a booked and busy hairstylist and that's pretty much all thanks to sandy. growing up she took issue with how black hair was such an afterthought in hair styling so every chance she got she sat sandy down and tested her designs on him (and if it looked good she applied the same methods to her own hair)
the rest of his family tree is a little convoluted though. his parents divorced when he was nine, and shortly after his brother santino emancipated himself and then won the lottery at 16?? so at that point sandy and shireen were dividing their time between three homes
his sister was kind of the only person who was a constant source of stability after that. like don't get him wrong his parents absolutely adored them but their dad put a lottt of emphasis on putting in hard work to become the greatest while their mom lives by the rules of self care and knowing your limits. spending time with their parents took a lot out of them and they would have gone insane without each other
unfortunately sandy didn't come out of being raised like that. unscathed. he heavily compartmentalizes his own emotions into the "boxing him" (feels no emotion, strong, unbeatable) and the "other him" (everything else, i.e. weak). that need to be the best is why his weakness is exhausting himself
yeah sandman's the best. at first he enjoyed the performance of it all, and especially how proud he was making his family. he's still an expert on making the media work for him but for the first time in his life he's starting to get more out of what he does for himself
sandman and joe are real close nowadays. it's interesting to understand basically your polar opposite so deeply and all that but joe brings out sandman's genuine laugh like no one else
(who framed roger rabbit moment. "what do you see in that guy anyway" "he makes me laugh.")
every time bear hugger tastes something good in a restaurant he shouts out "THIS is de-LICIOUS! whoever made this should be VERY PROUD! (pointing at the waiter) THANK YOU FOR BRINGING ME THIS" and tips a small fortune
yes he did do this multiple times at a high dining restaurant and was solemnly asked to leave. he was laughing about it though bc all the snooty foodies hated it. the chef sent him an invitation for two seats in a private dinner because he was so charming. bear brought along hondo because "you know about food eh"
great tiger was pretty shy and antisocial as a bab especially due to his parent's fame. (his mom was an actor n his dad of course is a magician) to help him get over that his mom often brought him on set to her acting gigs and his dad let him watch his shows offstage. he learned that everyone would awww and be more friendly if he acted a little shy first
he had a system. come in holding mom/dad's hand. mom/dad introduces me and tell me to say hi. i act like i'm about to speak UNTIL i hide my face behind mom/dad's leg. everyone smiles. shout hello and smile big. everyone now loves me
actually his first movie role was with his mum at three years old. it was nearly 3 am and he was sound asleep waiting to go home. there was only one more scene to film; a flashback where the main actor came home to see his wife (played by mumma tiger) tucking their child into bed. in order to wrap filming, tiger's mom suggested using great tiger since he was sound asleep already. he semi woke up in bed being kissed on the forehead, and assuming he was back home, mumbled "baba" and hugged the actor. that went into the final movie
he was the world's cutest kid and his parents smothered him in love. they're still very close although mumma tiger is always prepared with embarassing baby pictures and purposefully ruining his untouchable facade
the first time great tiger used magic he had no idea it was impossible. tiger got into a tiff with his father and he got so mad when he was told to get in the corner he stomped up the kitchen wall and nestled himself in the ceiling corner glaring. his dad was so shocked that he just went silent
(and then great tiger nearly passed out from magical exertion and his dad had to dive across the room to catch him)
tiger is very much a professional. no one has ever been in the same room with him before he was 100% ready and flawless either for public outings or for the ring
you know how i mentioned smm's spanish girlfriend. well
don doesn't really encourage carmen's "money making schemes" but he loves her anyway. i mean god forbid women do anything
he did show up undercover in a really big hat and sunglasses to try and tell carmen to ease up but macho said i'm gonna do what's called a pro bisexual move
now don is involved in the smm polycule. he tried not to be because he felt bad that super macho man didn't recognize him but he will not lie he enjoys having lunch with smm once carmen goes back home. plus he enjoys fighting over who pays the bill
he calls his disguise self juan ricardo. and juan can sit on a 200 pound weight and be benchpressed if he wants to
aran ryan watches every movie. doesn't matter what it is who it's intended for or how many times he's watched it he is in that theater. he does shout at it though so for everyone's safety his home cinema gets the most milage
his favorite genre is science fiction. mostly because a good number of them are reeeeeal bad but also because he wrote copious amounts of space exploration stories as a kid
he has reaaaaaaaally strong emotions about the movies he likes and even the ones he really hates. if someone gets the reason why it's good or bad wrong (in his head) he would like to hit them with a hammer
he made a knockoff of calvin and hobbes's "spaceman spiff" for his middle school newspaper called Geordie v. The Galaxy where the first man in space keeps accidentally insulting every alien and getting chased off the planet but he can't stop traveling because Earth banished him for being annoying. there were absolutely no reasons why the character had that backstory. (/lie)
his sister calls him irn bru. she is the only one who can because otherwise he will grip you by the shoulder and explain to you calmly but unmistakably threateningly how you really ought to reevaluate your mindset on the people of ireland because either you are ignorant or actively choosing to be an ignorant asshole in order to make stale jokes.
unless you are irish then he just snorts and claps you on the back

Star Trek: Strange New Worlds s2 ep5
our first truly comedic episode of season 2 and i think they knocked it out of the park. the idea of a character of mixed heritage experiencing a splitting of their two sides isn't a new one (look at B'elanna) but doing it with Spock is absolutely something that TOS might've done and i'm shocked it isn't already an episode from the time.
the involvement of T'pring and her family (!!!) is definitely the right choice for this kind of plot. the montages of Spock experiencing human puberty and having to readjust as best he can to his old standards were hilarious. T'pring's mother and father were great, both from a dramatic and a comedic standpoint. i especially love the opportunity we have to let Spock express his anger and frustration at being treated as horribly as he is by his own planet. it was extremely cathartic.
Chapel was also amazing in this episode as i have come to expect from Bush. she plays vulnerability so well and her unwillingness to face her emotions for Spock isn't frustrating, it's just engaging. her arc with the fellowship was also a nice addition. T'pring's frustration with how Spock continues to treat her is also extremely justified and it explains how we get to the point of them being so distant by the point of Kirk's command.
then that leads to the second ever legitimate cliffhanger in the series so far and the implications of Spock and Chapel actually being intimate with each other. i feel confident in the writers to pull us back to the cold distance they eventually have in TOS, but every step along the way just makes the original context even richer.
Peck's Spock deserves the most praise in being able to embody the same entity on two wildly different spectrums of acting. it makes me wonder how Nimoy might've done this episode, though i have no doubt he could've pulled it off just as well. it is also a great episode for recognizing Amanda as Spock's mother and human side, as well as her own person being a human on Vulcan and ostracized by vulcans.
overall, a great comedy episode and very fun for me to watch. surprisingly heartfelt in the right moments. an entry worthy of the green tunic.

Sporatic night poetry time !!! Happy 2 am !!
Dust, Flow, Chains, Grow by Ace1diots
Pile of unread books
Dusty on the floor
Will a story ever be written
Will a story ever be told
That does not have a hint of tragedy,
Or a hint of gold
Or are they all distended to be
Cobweb filled and laid to rest
In the abandoned catacomb
Trapped in the Minotaur’s labyrinth am I
May i ever leave ?
But the real question is this:
Am i the man ?
Or am i the beast ?
Riddles and rhymes these words be
And yet they still mean something to me
Words flow like a river
Out in the cold
Will they ever freeze ?
Will they ever get cold ?
Washed away in the current,
The fisherman’s boat goes
Will he ever return home ?
No one knows
Shadows of things past follow day by day
And yet our old patterns, stay
The light shines at the end of the tunnel
But is it just a crack in the wall ?
Or the sign of a brand new dawn ?
Chains rattle and inmates groan
Will you make it out alone ?
Will you get free of this grave ?
Or forever be locked
Away, away, in the cave ?
The storys they can tell us,
The rocks around,
Is sedimentary,
And scientifically sound
But what of the people
Who lived in this town
How come
They were never found ?
When will this mascarade end ?
Has the ball come to a close ?
When can we leave ?
I want to go Home
Disconnected ideas, all related
The past is gone
The future is elevated
Far beyond any mortal can go
What will our future hold ?
It is not up to us
To find the answer
But up to us how to spend the time
“Tick tock, tick tock,”
Said Mr Clock,
“Time is running out,
Wouldn’t you say ?
Please dont waste
Today”
“End Scene,”
The pages say,
“Please dont waste
Today”

ok i realized i would have been derailing a post with this but the brain does not fucking stop developing at 25. the study this figure comes from is bunk.
Tumblr media
from a contemporary nbc news article that agrees with this figure, despite knowing that the researchers never fucking bothered to study anyone over 26 (and then rounded it because 25 was a more satisfying number)
[ID: text that says "The study, which is ongoing, involves scanning the brains of 2,000 people ages 4 through 26 using magnetic resonance imaging, a radiation-free tool that permits researchers to view the organs of healthy people in minute detail." end ID.]
even if this glorified piece of trivia was actually true, using it in policy does real-world harm.
Tumblr media
from my favorite nih article, linked below the cut
[ID: text that says "Although such research is currently underway, many neuroscientists argue that empirical support for a causal relationship between neuromaturational processes and real-world behavior is currently lacking [4]. Despite the lack of empirical evidence, there has been increasing pressure to bring adolescent brain research to bear on adolescent health-and-welfare policy. For example, in the policy process, adolescent brain immaturity has been used to make the case that teens should be considered less culpable for crimes they commit; however, parallel logic has been used to argue that teens are insufficiently mature to make autonomous choices about their reproductive health [5]." end ID.]
that article is from 2009, but for a current example, look at usamerican republican presidential candidate vivek ramaswamy
Tumblr media
[ID: text that says "There needs to be some civic experience you need to have gone through in order to actually vote,' Ramaswamy said. 'That experience could be living seven years as an adult and voting at age 25. That experience could be direct service to the country or some first responder service,'" end ID.]
it isnt a radical position to parrot the same shit that this man wants for his country. child labor is still evil because the ruling class is expanding its cache of people to exploit, not because the wage slaves' prefrontal cortexes haven't finished cooking. if you think people with 'underdeveloped' brains aren't fit for the privileges of being a legal adult, you should stop talking before you get to your position on disabled people.

99% of cultures based their dragons on snakes. I have no fucking clue what the welsh were doing. Like. Obviously it fucking rules, but we honestly just don’t know why they have beasts that look like that. The more popular theory is ancient discovery of dinosaur bones, but that’s hard to validate.

Star Trek: Strange New Worlds s2 ep3
oh my god.
yeah this one was completely out of left field for me. i never expected that Wesley's Kirk would be good, nor any attempt at a Kirk romance to be any good, OR for nuTrek to do a good time travel story, OR that they could handle the Noonien-Singh legacy. somehow, by a fucking miracle, they jumped every single hurdle i had in my mind about this entire concept.
La'an was utterly brilliant. zero complaints. played to perfected by Christina Chong and the final moments in the episode were heartbreaking. no notes.
Kirk managed what Peck's Spock had done before him. it is a kirk of a different time, before his five-year mission, and in a different time from the character's debut, so it was always going to be different. but the heart of the man was there, the man who loves food, the man who seems to hold such a tragic veil just beneath the bravado, the man who while professional and competent, can be more than the rules and regulations he follows. it is a different Kirk, one not yet settled into confidence and command like shatner's, but he IS Kirk. Paul Wesley convinced me this time.
the time travel was handled well. it dived in without needing to linger on introducing this trope more than necessary, and the actual plot was as good as it needed to be. i did like Pelia being the Guinan to this Enterprise crew just like i predicted she would be. the romulan agent was also fine, but she was definitely more in service to the REAL purpose of the episode.
khan. oh, the tyrant we loved since Wrath and haven't gotten the bad feeling out of our mouths about since Into Darkness. it's rather unfortunate. if he weren't nearly so important to Earth's history in the Eugenics Wars, he would be an incredibly unwarranted legacy character. none of that applies here. this story was about La'an and her utterly abhorrent legacy, and how to come to terms with it. it was a story fit for Trek in the best way, and it was one only capable of being done by this team and this production. they proved the worth of making La'an a Noonien-Singh.
the matter of canon was absolutely how it should have been handled ever since Voyage Home and First Contact. time travel has been mucking up the details for a long time and i am and have been fine with this. they acknowledged the discrepancy and justified it all in a single line of dialogue. it frees all the other series up for following the newer canon with this new justification too.
all around excellent episode. just as the last was one for the history books of courtroom episodes, this one is fit to sit next to "City on the Edge of Forever" and "Past Tense".
