Reacting to Animated Marvel Shows 7/?
New show, same lack of context. Let's get into this mayhem. Spoilers for Future Avengers 1x19.
Oh no this is the anime one.
Except the summary is "The Avengers team up with Loki" so nevermind, I can dig anime
Ohhh I forgot about Thor's nose
Why is he in prison??!!! [Loki, Loki is in prison, not Thor's nose]
"As you know, I'm stuck here in prison." Nooo, really???
His anime eyes, I can't!!!
This show's doing something fun called, Give both brothers green eyes for no conceivable reason. [Why has this series become Which Lokis have green eyes and which shows do I violently hate for inaccurate eye color choice alone?]
It's playing another fun game called, Let's make Loki as hot as possible, and I for one am loving that game.
The noses, though. There's still something weird about everyone's noses, though they're all different, they're all weird.
This theme doesn't go as hard as the others
All the Avengers and Marvel characters look borderline normal, and then the OCs all look like they wandered in from Kingdom Hearts or a 13-year-old's sketchpad
Why is T'Challa in a cape?? It makes him look like he invaded Batman's closet
Why are there nuclear weapons stashed in Antarctica? What?
This racist fucking reporter has the nerve to stand up at T'Challa's press conference, where he's in full Black Panther get-up for some reason, claws and all, clearly having just robbed Dr. Strange of his cape and dyed it black to match his aesthetic, and has the balls to ask the king of Wakanda himself, sometime leader of the motherfucking Avengers, if the weapons contained vibranium. Sit down, you fucking Trumper.
Amora, fuck off
Oh I hate every single one of the children. [I want to make fun of them by calling them KH character names but I don't actually know enough about KH and as mentioned in the post yesterday, I only play Animal Crossing. But please know if I knew enough, I would.]
Cap has green eyes too! They don't all have green eyes, why do so many have green eyes
Loki is so much of a twink he can hide completely behind Thor
Can they teleport because Loki showed them how?
These handcuffs are vaguely kinky
The girl is me. But she's also annoying as fuck and I hate her
Wait what's the story here? Why do the kids not know who Loki is?
Nevermind the girl is my favorite and also I'm jealous of her shapeshifting now
Loki throwing a tantrum
Oh my god please I need more Loki and Tony interactions
Okay backstory time. We've just met this boy, no reason not to give him an entirely objective rundown. I'm sure this will go perfectly well and make absolute sense for Loki's character
Oh my god the balls on this kid calling Loki spoiled, I love it
Backstory is strangely accurate. He doesn't say anything against Thor.
This kid is annoying me, as is the emotional guitar music, and Loki's response to him? Weird and I hate it
CHEESE
Man now I'm rooting for a fucking back-stab. That redemption was too fast
Bruno and Makoto have got some sexual tension
Amora get FUCKED
There's something so...undeserving about the villains accusing the Avengers of using "lies" and "trickery" when Loki is standing right there and had nothing to do with this little scheme.
Ironman, is this your nerdy way of asking Loki on a DATE?!
I thought these kids were supposed to be Avengers in training. They know nothing and they freak out about every little thing
Amora, fuck OFF
Loki was that Dr. Strange sorcery???
Why did Makoto say that like Bruno is his brother and not actually his friend?
Whoa cliffhanger
Welp see you tomorrow to talk about how this concludes (assuming it concludes in 1x20)

I have not forgotten you guys (at this point you guys are part of the family since we’re sharing my brother) or the updates but yesterday and today he has done something that I wasn’t expecting. He went back to watch 1x08, 1x09, 1x12, 1x16, 1x19, 2x01, 2x02, 2x06, 2x09, 3x08 and 3x14. And when I asked him why is he doing that his only replies were ‘1) i miss the old them and want to see them again to watch the difference when we watch the new episode tomorrow and 2) because why the fuck not?’ I think i have officially found my yearly pride month watch buddy. He did say that he wanted to watch more episodes in the late season 2/early season 3 but then he remembered Ethan and decided not to for his own good. Btw he laid on the couch practically all day long and watched it while Brian the cat laid on his chest. And every once in a while he would pause when Brian was on and tell the cat a little bit about Brian aka the person he is named after. He was also heartbroken to realize just how Brian’s mom’s hatred for her son got even worse (in his opinion) after she found out and he was even more pissed bc of the cancer arc with Joan. So basically I’m just here to let you guys know that he is alive and (un)well and went back to watch old episodes because he misses Brian and Justin even though he has more new episodes of Britin to watch.
Oh my goodness dear sweet anon, this is so relatable. A friend who’s been following this saga and I were wondering when he might do a rewatch and apparently the answer is… now!
I think the insight about Joan is super valid and true. She went from wanting him to come with her to church and care for her to telling him he was spared (from a cancer with a 99% survival rate) by god so he could turn straight.
It sounds like cat Brian is living the life and has it really good compared with his former life on the street. He knows what’s up. Just like his namesake, he’s no dummy. (Sadly, Kinney the cat once walked into a paper bag and then panicked when he didn’t know he needed to back up to get out. He was the most lovable guy in the world but not smart at all.)
#ask winderlylandchime#dear sweet anon#queer as folk#a straight man watches qaf us 2000 in the year of our lord 2023

[tv review] tos 1x15-1x19 (1966-67)
1x15 “shore leave”
you know kind of immediately if you’re going to like this episode or not. it’s incredibly silly, but i’m here for it.
also, while the episode as a whole is pretty disposable in terms of trek lore, there are two absolutely essential kirk/spock moments in here for shippers, so if that’s of interest to you at all i wouldn’t recommend missing this one. b-rank
1x16 “the galileo seven”
this is a spock-heavy episode and i’m almost always game for spock-heavy episodes. his commitment to peace and nonviolence is admirable, and for all the complaining everyone around him does, his logical approach really does give them the best chance of getting out of this extremely desperate situation. i might like more recent development of the character better than what we get here, but this is still one of the early tos episodes that has aged the most gracefully. in spite of the foam spears and styrofoam rocks. a-rank
1x17 “the squire of gothos”
kirk matches wits with a proto-q who has been observing humanity from afar and doesn’t realize that because of the speed of light he’s actually observing humanity from hundreds of years ago. so he has the personality of some imperialist general (retired). and like, i get that this isn’t any worse than a lot of episodes i like, but for this kind of silly bullshit it just kind of either clicks for you or it doesn’t, and for whatever reason this one has never clicked for me. c-rank
1x18 “arena”
maybe i have this one rated too highly, i won’t fight anyone on that. but i look forward to it every time i rewatch the series. and it’s not just because the gorn captain is hot af (but wow he’s hot af), but… yeah, okay, it is largely because the gorn captain is hot af. that’s fair. but come on, this episode is so iconic. a-rank
1x19 “tomorrow is yesterday”
the time travel is stupid and makes no sense, and it’s highly implied that it’s easy and they can casually use it again in the future (which does actually happen in a later episode). honestly this episode isn’t the worst or anything, and parts of it are pretty genuinely entertaining, but it’s definitely not one of my favorites or one i ever look forward to.
it’s fine, though. it’s light & silly. the shot of the enterprise in the earth’s atmosphere being perceived by 20th century people as a ufo is adorable. it’s fine. c-rank

1x19 - Tomorrow is Yesterday
7/10. One of the funniest episodes yet, as sitcom-style shenanigans and misunderstandings lead to a fighter pilot from the 1960s getting stuck on board the Enterprise. The crew is launched back several centuries after encountering a black hole, and to avoid outright detection, Kirk scoops up the pilot that identified their ship, gleefully introducing him to 23rd century technology and attitudes. There are some cute scenes where the pilot, Captain Christopher, is astonished to find both women and aliens in positions of power, and he is reasonably fascinated by all he sees; however, he wants to go back home, and Kirk and co. eventually acquiesce to his demands once they learn that the man’s unborn son will be crucial to the advent of Starfleet. They plot to retrieve Christopher’s footage of the Enterprise from his military headquarters, a heist that gets Kirk and Sulu held at gunpoint. (This will happen three or four times to Kirk, and by the final time, his expression makes it clear he’s about to make it the final time.) Kirk is captured, a security guard gets accidentally transported to the ship, McCoy snips at Spock for not working fast enough or being more emotional accessible, and Christopher sets an ultimatum that Spock demolishes with a neatly placed nerve pinch. (Spock also holds Kirk’s injured hand which? Very wholesome.) The crew works out a way to rewind time so that neither the security guard nor Christopher will have any memories of the incident, something Christopher seems just fine with accepting. You have to pick your battles when you’re outnumbered 400 to one, I suppose. There are some signature Trek shakes and stumbles as the Sun’s gravity hula-hoops the Enterprise back to the future, and before you know it, Kirk’s making his wildest report yet to HQ. It’s hilarious that this time-travel adventure happened so early on in its run. I wonder how many times a year Starfleet crews have had to navigate time-travel without interfering too much in history. ‘Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home’ might not be that unusual events-wise.
Favourite quote: "How did you get in?" / "I popped in out of thin air." - Fellini & Kirk. // The sass, the utter indifference to being interrogated, the fact that he gave his REAL ACTUAL NAME to prominent historical individuals... I know they said they rewound time and everyone’s memories were wiped, but Kirk didn’t know they would do that then! My god, he could have at least said ‘Spock’ or ‘Uhura’.

Uhura celebration continues.
Episode 1x18, Arena. (Or, The One With the Lizard). Largely a background role for Uhura. Report to Kirk, and later to Spock, about the findings of various scans, background reactions, getting tossed around the bridge. Also a really impressive shriek when, for the second episode in a row, Kirk is vanished from the bridge.
As things go badly for Kirk, and they are permitted to watch from the bridge, she stands in concerned support beside Spock, Scott, and McCoy. And when Kirk reappears on the bridge, having successfully proved that humanity isn’t entirely savage, she jumps to her feet along with everyone else, and is the one to ask the Captain if he is alright. Not a huge role for her here, and I could really do without the scream (because apparently women always scream? Idk). Otherwise she is her usual steady self in a tense situation.
1x19, Tomorrow is Yesterday. Some decent Uhura in this episode, but an episode most significant for setting up the idea of time travel, and a later movie….
When we first see her, Uhura is lying on the ground, clearly coming-to after being knocked out.
Spock rather awkwardly pulls her to her feet and half-carries her three steps before he stuffs her into her station, asking if she is alright. Seriously, Spock, thanks for your concern, but she probably would have done better without your help, she looked like she was about to puke.
She pulls herself together as the Captain orders her to make a report to Starfleet about the “black star” in the area. Although they are literally in Earth’s atmosphere, she reports that the normal Starfleet channel is nothing but static; she pulls in another braodcast reporting a that the first “moon shot” is scheduled for later that week, and the crew immediately intuits that they are in the late 1960s (As a historical note, this episode aired in July 1967; Apollo 8 would send the first people into orbit around the moon in December 1968, so if it feels like this episode is being vague about the historical details….it is.)
Uhura has some background shots on the bridge reacting to the pilot who has seen the ship and the need to bring him aboard. She is standing next to Spock when the pilot walks onto the bridge, stating that he never did believe in little green men.
She is honestly still looking shaken. She was unconscious on the floor of the bridge, and I think she is probably pushing through a head injury. Still, she shows the pilot around the bridge, pointing things out to him while the Captain and Spock discuss the serious problems they now have facing them. Uhura smiles kindly at the pilot as he continues to process the existence of Spock.
She is absent did most of the rest off the episode. Toward the end of the episode, she is background on the bridge, clinging to her console as they slingshot back into the future. She is the first one to know they have successfully returned, her hand flying up to her earpiece, and she immediately opens the hail from an apparently-concerned Starfleet.
She also gives Kirk a teasing grin as the still-malfunctioning computer flirts with him.
I sometimes wonder how long the Enterprise was gone. They didn’t seem to be terribly precise in how they stopped. I imagine they overshoot by a bit—a day, a month? Half a year? As is usual for the era, that isn’t addressed, but sometimes I wonder at the conversations the crew must have had with their family and friends after something like that. Did Uhura call home to tell the people she loved she was actually alive, and how long might they have thought she was dead?
Not a lot for her in this episode, but there is room for wondering about whether she was injured in the beginning, and wondering about the personal impact of the their likely absence.

Top 5 episodes from TOS 1
And the first season is done. Here is a list with my top 5 favorite episodes from this season.
5: The enemy within (1x5)
It was very interesting. But there is also an attempted rape and Kirk never really makes amends for it, so.
4: The naked Time (1x4)
Because of Kirk’s final monologue and Sulu doing scherma.
3: Court Martial (1x20)
Because I love plot twists.
2: The City on the Edge of Forever (1x28)
Because we all love a good time travelling and star-crossed lovers plot.
1: Tomorrow is Yesterday (1x19)
The whole concept is just too cool.
Special mention: What are little girls made of? (1x7)
Because they have an actual monologue about using vibrators while being in a relationship.

i just watched VOY (2x18) “Death Wish” and i have Thoughts™
first off, very cool to see star trek discuss euthanasia and argue in favor of bodily autonomy, also some excellent Janeway moments at the end of the trial, i always really appreciate her character being so deeply empathetic, and trial episodes always have great ~philosophical~ potential
HOWEVER, i was really bothered how her interactions with de Lancie-Q were scripted. It’s standard practice by now for Q episodes that Q appears, stirs the space pot, waggles his “grating jackass who’s so quippy and so melodramatic that everyone loves to hate him” ass across the bridge, and brings about the most delightful chaos (to the crew’s disdain and my viewing pleasure). So i’m sitting, excited for the DRAMA of Janeway wiping the floor with Q, and instead...i get tired scenes of the most low-effort, worn-out, wet fart-equivalent misogynistic negging about “oHHhhH a wOOOmAN?? as CaPtAiN???!? the horror!!!!! we must bang now please (pLeAsE)”
that’s annoying already in itself, but the worst part for me was that no one confronts him!! nothing!!! just shots of people clenching their jaws and looking away uncomfortably!!!! and they go after this “haha he’s funny because he says the un-PC thing” punchline multiple times this episode!!!!
what happened to the exquisite sparring that we saw on TNG between Q and Picard? what happened to Sisko fucking decking Q (god that was beautiful)? why doesn’t Janeway get written the same kind of opportunity to kick Q’s ass, figuratively or literally? even if it was decided that Janeway smacking Q upside the head is too far removed from her internal code of ethics, why doesn’t anyone else on the bridge (someone without the diplomatic burden of being captain) jab back at him, à la Riker, or Guinan (i cri evrytiem <3), or Data, who wrecks Q without even trying? why is the only retort to Q’s misogyny in “Death Wish” Janeway telling him to never address her as “Madame” while Q looks back silently, surprised and mildly miffed?
i just find myself disappointed in the ways that this era of star trek introduces such compelling female characters, only to let them down with abrupt send-offs, inconsistent development, and weird, ham-fisted subplots with predatory alien men. it’s also disappointing that Q’s offhand misogyny isn’t ever explicitly rebuked in the narrative. instead, it’s presented as just another of Q’s annoying quirks that everyone has to grin and bear, and it seems that the audience is expected to implicitly know that this is A Wrong (which, uh, a sizeable portion of st viewers have not/will not get that). TOS does more to chastise 1960′s pilot man’s snarking and brazen gawking in (1x19) “Tomorrow is Yesterday”--why can’t VOY establish forthright that there are social consequences for misogyny in the proto-utopian and oh so egalitarian 24th century?
at this point in VOY, i already feel that Kes is being denied the depth of complexity that she stands to contribute to the show, so it’s a bummer that Janeway--this brilliant, powerfully compassionate, and fiercely principled captain who has already demonstrated time and time again that she does not mince her words--isn’t given a fleshed-out opportunity to thoroughly shut down Q’s slimy shittiness towards her and the women on board.
#star trek voy#janeway#star trek#shakes fist at rick berman#it's just really shitty watching misogyny be played for laughs on star trek#im getting flashbacks to Zek groping Kira WITHOUT CONSEQUENCE#god#i want a future where sexist creeps and jackasses get wacked#plz#anyway i still love voyager and star trek#i just want better#🥺#fuck you rick berman#thoughts#voyager#voy#kathryn janeway#thx 4 reading :^)
