Not to sound like a broken record, but fuck I love thinking about how things would change in the future, especially horror movies

“I actually really enjoy horror movies, especially the slasher kind. Did you know that many of the tropes found in it are the result of things that were condemned in the late 1900’s in western society? Many of the plotlines of the time were “teenagers have premarital sex and do drugs and get killed off, and the one that lives is the “good” girl who doesn’t do those things.” As you can imagine, those things were very looked down at the time.”

“Now, even though those things are no longer condemned, those character types still exist in slasher films, and have even evolved. There’s still the “slutty girl”, but instead of it being a Human playing a character that’s meant to be “punished” for premarital sex, it’s now always played by an Orion woman. In fact, the current most popular slasher franchise in today’s time involves an Orion woman who does everything right by playing up the “slutty” stereotype. So rather than being condemned for her sexuality, she’s venerated for it.”

“Do you think the Orion director was aware of the Human history of these kind of slasher films and did this purposely to subvert the trope, or do you think it was a natural outcome because of the difference in how Orions view sex and sexuality? As a director, it would make sense that she’d do her research, but also it’s been so long since the 1900’s on Earth, I wouldn’t be surprised if information like that is too difficult to find, I wish I could ask her myself.”

- person from the 21st century who’s not aware of how much of their knowledge is still common or not

#star trek #orion women #Orions #fuck I love aliens #Humans #I wonder what species would become the ‘stoner’ character #there’s probably a lot of better ways to type this out #like I kept going back and forth on if ‘archetypes’ or ‘tropes’ was more correct #and I wanted to specify western slashers cause I’m not actually sure what slasher films are like in eastern society and what might’ve #influenced those types of characters #so this is just a quick rushed version of what I wanted to type #because I need all of you to see my vision #made up dialogue by yours truly

I think that it's possible to believe that being the love interest is good for a black female character, that spuhura is a popular ship that has the fandom in a chokehold, that fans made it even more beautiful, and still recognize that 2009 spuhura wasn't greenlighted out of love for black feminism but rather to try to extinguish any gay readings of spock

#not that they succeded #hey. hey you reading. if you don't agree? don't harass. keep on scrolling. or block w/e. ✌️#star trek aos #this is just to say that I'm tired of seeing spirk shippers being accused of racism and misogyny #when they say that spuhura was made canon to straightwash spock #and always being told ''but being the love interest is better for a black woman than being single''#yes friend i can see that and i bet that there were people on the crew who genuinely shipped spuhura and were happy to make it real #but do you really believe that the paramount higher-ups thought about all that?#when spock has been gay-coded and gay representation for gay people for more than 50 years #it was plain and simple homophobia and I'll thank you that you don't downplay it #literally it's not even about spirk it's just that spock has been always gay coded and any reboot made ever since tos always tries to erase #that part of his character. there is no longer even space for nuance #spock is no longer portrayed as mostly disinterested in women except for extraordinary occasions #it's spock x woman or else

Quark to Pel: I’d want my woman to act like a FERENGI woman and be unclothed with no rights

Quark the MINUTE he sees Grilka for a second time: Please step on me Queen <3 <3 <3

#star trek #ds9 #quark #and with Grilka specifically same dude oh my god I'm so upset Klingon women aren't REAL #Also wow Quark IS a genuine romantic he subjects himself to Klingon stuff he doesn't like for her #like you KNOW they don't end up together in the end (my bet is he just... can't live life like that and the culture difference is too much)#but it's still shockingly sweet for our resident capitalist (both derogatory AND affectionate)#Wow that loser really did lie to Pel he had that Cardassian lady too. Natima I think? Anyways rip Pel you just weren't his type #hope you found someone who DOES love you back #I have Quark brainrot rip me

the best way I can pitch Star Trek: Lower Decks is that the protagonists Mariner and Boimler are like. The absolute PEAK representation of annoying bisexual besties

#also i love that mariner like. sucks lol.#i mean that EXTREMELY positively we need more women who do dumb bullshit #also ougghhg i love you sci fi comedy i love you SPECIFICALLY a star trek show that is inherently a comedy #star trek lower decks #my only like. non pitch for the show is it is not really good for people who are like. not already star trek fans #it's a show by and for trekkies lol #which is not to say it doesn't have it's own things going on it's not just references #but i think it would be like. Confusing. to watch with no knowledge of trek in general

Look, I know there are a lot of people who like this scene and think it's romantic. Ok. No big deal. I can see it.

But I saw the Barbie movie somewhat recently and now when I see it I only think

And it makes me think of the difference men and women have to the here, let me help / let me show you.

#star trek #jim kirk #let me help you #let us show you #barbie #I know people will argue these are completely different #but I seen them being the same from a male a female perspective #men think it’s an act of love and women are being told what they already know can do on their own #shrug #🤷‍♀️

watching original star trek is such a battle because its like oo fun space show and the space is so fun and goofy and silly that sometimes you forgot its the sixties until you get straight up punched in the face by the most insane misogyny like every episode be like: aliens plot aliens spirk aliens fun hijanks oh and by the way women shouldnt have jobs aliens plot aliens

and i go ooh ah aliens haha definitely didnt notice anything else at all

#is this incomprehensible? probably.#im very tired #like its a beautiful show and i love it but oh my god i hate men SO MUCH #lol #star trek #remember when spock was like and of course women are idiots according to science #its fine though because you can consume media and enjoy it as long as you dont make excuses for it so thats what im doing #when it gets too bad im like oh well kirk probably is into pegging #star trek tos #as a woman i reempower myself by projecting onto kirk and yassifying him into a girlboss feminist babygirl bottom #he may be that in canon…. its hard to tell

Who thinks I'm obsessed already

My Star Trek TOS watching continues!

.

The Enemy Within

Gotta love a "Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde" episode! His acting is so good!

The dog. I love it (why was he holding it like that??)

I am: impressed

.

Mudd's Women

Meh. I realise The Cage didn't air, but I saw it a few episodes ago. So the whole "this beautiful woman who's there to be your lover/wife is actually an old ugly lady" feels old already.

I liked how, when Eve was telling him it must be lonely being the captain, Jim went "It probably appears more difficult than it is". Yeah Jimbo cuz you're in love with your ship you told us so

That made me laugh:

I am: rolling my eyes

.

What are little girls made of?

(Kinda hilarious that we get the "double Jim who's the real one" twice in three episodes.)

Many things I liked!

Spock knowing immediately something was wrong with Jim when hearing the android pretending to be him!

Jim testing androidJim's memory with "Tell me about Sam" got to me because, you know, he could have picked anything but guess what. I, too, if I had to test a copy of myself, would bring up my siblings.

Jim having none of Korby's eugenics bullshit: "In android form, a human being can have practical immortality. Can you understand what I'm offering mankind?" "Programming. Different word, but the same old promises made by Genghis Khan, Julius Caesar, Hitler, Ferris, Maltuvis." "Can you understand that a human converted to an android can be programmed for the better? Do you imagine how life could be improved if we could do away with jealousy, greed, hate?" "It can also be improved by eliminating love, tenderness, sentiment, the other side of the coin, doctor."

And, of course, Jim thinking about something awful to say to Spock so his android double will say it and Spock will know right away it's not him! Because Jim would never! They're married friends!

This is some good shit right there!

Also... Do we talk about this?

I am: obsessed

.

Miri

Less excited with this one. The concept is good, you feel the urgency, but the whole thing with Miri liking Jim put me off. Plus the jealousy towards Janice made it worse. God forbid we had two female characters interacting in a positive way :/

I am: sighing

.

Dagger of the Mind

Experimentations on convicts under cover of progressive psychological treatment!

First mind meld! Exciting!

Jim defeating the machine because he... is so very strong-minded? Has a high sense of duty? Idk he's just the best

Spock's face when he sees Jim kissing Helen lmao

"It's hard to think a man could die of loneliness" (is it though, Bones? Is it?) "Not when you sat in that room" Oh Jim bb

I am: very enthusiastic / gonna lose my patience over female characters having no other purpose than romance

#Star Trek TOS #Star Trek #watching TOS #what are little girls made of #i'm loving the watch #but it's getting on my nerves: how do you write something that smart and good #And not write women as anything other than objects for romance or sex ughhhhh #Uhura is the only one who's not written that way but her role is very secondary #can't i enjoy my escapism in peace

star trek lower decks just keeps getting better and better

i had a lot of fun with season 1 but seasons 2 and now 3 have just gotten more and more nuanced and creative and FUN! god it's such a delight, i really get why everyone loves this show so much

#sb and l rambles #sb and l watches st #star trek #ld #also just watched 3x03 and seeing mariner's greatest fantasy be jennifer calling her babe healed something in my soul #it's so fun to watch this show cause s1 was so careful about mariner's attitudes around women #and you can TELL they won the queer mariner argument between seasons cause in 2x01 she's IMMEDIATELY confirmed as pan #i fucking love her so much

in the new voyages vol 2 there is a short story where kirk, mccoy, uhura, and others get magicked into the opposite gender and lt breen ends up choosing to remain a man make of that what you will

#and what you will make of it is canon trans character in the star trek short story #i LOVED this short story tho it was an interesting look at gender #also spock and mccoy r bitching and spock implies he has a huge dick which. hilarious. truly his mothers son #fr tho mccoy and kirk being women was so funny they hated it. kirk is like beautiful and mad abt it #tos #captain’s log #trek books #(truly his mothers son is in reference to a part from strangers from thr sky lol. ‘there is nothing little about my husband’ verbatim

it did not escape me that in the absence of Ortegas, we still have a short-haired woman as a pilot

#star trek strange new worlds #strange new worlds #there is just no way this isn't deliberate #i see you whoever did this i see you #also i just love how pike's immediate team is just women #i'm counting spock as one of pike's girls in the same way james is a derry girl #no i don't take criticism on that take
