Smile
(I just realized I’m not putting the characters this one is Michael Jackson)
1992
“Michael!” I call. I was at Neverland and I was needing some cuddles. “APPLEHEAD!” I screeched. Michael came running, comically slipping on his socks and sliding into the wall. “What!?” He shouted back, laughing. I run up to him and grab his waist. “I missed you.” I whine, looking up at him with big eyes. “Oh fine. We can cuddle.” I smile and grab his hand. I ran to the bedroom and slapped the door open. “LIOOOOOOOO! STOP DAMN IT!” He shouted, spooked how fast I was running. “Last one there is a rotten egg!!” I scream while my arms flailed around. He laughs as I jump onto the bed. “Come ere!” He smiles as he practically pounces on me. “You little turd!” We both laugh as he hugs me. We lay down and get comfortable as he strokes my head. “Your so handsome. And beautiful. Damn it your everything!” I say. He stares down at me. “What-“ I kiss his cheek and return to watching whatever he put on tv. I feel his body heat up. “What?” I ask, looking back at him. He smiles. “Nothing.” He continues to pet my head. “Michael I swear to god if I feel ONE boner, ☝️ one, you are dead. UNO!” He snorts and laughs his ass off. “No! Ew. Especially not to u.” I scoff. “Excuse me I’m hot”

I'm having some kind of feelings about it being pointed out to us in-story more than once in S3 that Isaac spends the majority of his time working in his lab alone (which Lamarr seems to believe is just perfectly relatable hyperfocus but Claire gets a little worried that it's about the crew not liking him).
Add to that the scene in Tale Of Two Topas in which he expressed worry about Kelly's reputation if the crew assumed that his visit to her rooms means they are romantically/sexually involved (Isaac is no old fuddy-duddy who cares about being a "man" alone with a woman in her chambers. It's the 25th century ffs, he doesn't care about being appropriate, he once made a sex-position survey. This is about Kelly possibly being involved with a Kaylon. Sidenote: whoever said something nasty about Claire in Isaac's hearing, I like to think their synthesizer developed a "mysterious" glitch where there's a little poop in everything).
Add to those the scene later that same episode where he said he didn't do the surgery for Topa's sake. He did it to improve his standing with the crew... to improve their efficiency. Please mind how we never SAW that alleged decrease in efficiency even implicitly, but we've seen people being nice to him in public and people being openly suspicious of him in public, and how do we think those two groups get on, especially if he's in the room? Or the kids of those groups of people (just imagine what the Mom from that teacher-parent meeting would have to say about it)? It's a small ship.

corrupted godhood. reluctant false messiah. prophecy as a creeping all consuming malady. does the oracle see the future or make the future? the horror of trapping yourself inescapably on purpose. the chains of destiny dragging you towards the path you are fighting tooth and nail to free yourself from. there never having been a chance to begin with. no other choice to make. but making that choice regardless.

the thing is that they're so fascinated by sex, they love sex, they can't imagine a world without sex - they need sex to sell things, they need sex to be part of their personality, they need sex to prove their power - but they hate sex. they are disgusted by it.
sex is the only thing that holds their attention, and it is also the thing that can never be discussed directly.
you can't tell a child the normal names for parts of their body, that's sexual in nature, because the body isn't a body, it's a vessel of sex. it doesn't matter that it's been proven in studies (over and over) that kids need to know the names of their genitals; that they internalize sexual shame at a very young age and know it's 'dirty' to have a body; that it overwhelmingly protects children for them to have the correct words to communicate with. what matters is that they're sexual organs. what matters is that it freaks them out to think about kids having body parts - which only exist in the context of sex.
it's gross to talk about a period or how to check for cancer in a testicle or breast. that is nasty, illicit. there will be no pain meds for harsh medical procedures, just because they feature a cervix.
but they will put out an ad of you scantily-clad. you will sell their cars for them, because you have abs, a body. you will drip sex. you will ooze it, like a goo. like you were put on this planet to secrete wealth into their open palms.
they will hit you with that same palm. it will be disgusting that you like leather or leashes, but they will put their movie characters in leather and latex. it will be wrong of you to want sexual freedom, but they will mark their success in the number of people they bed.
they will crow that it's inappropriate for children so there will be no lessons on how to properly apply a condom, even to teens. it's teaching them the wrong things. no lessons on the diversity of sexual organ growth, none on how to obtain consent properly, none on how to recognize when you feel unsafe in your body. if you are a teenager, you have probably already been sexualized at some point in your life. you will have seen someone also-your-age who is splashed across a tv screen or a magazine or married to someone three times your age. you will watch people pull their hair into pigtails so they look like you. so that they can be sexy because of youth. one of the most common pornography searches involves newly-18 young women. girls. the words "barely legal," a hiss of glass sand over your skin.
barely legal. there are bills in place that will not allow people to feel safe in their own bodies. there are people working so hard to punish any person for having sex in a way that isn't god-fearing and submissive. heteronormative. the sex has to be at their feet, on your knees, your eyes wet. when was the first time you saw another person crying in pornography and thought - okay but for real. she looks super unhappy. later, when you are unhappy, you will close your eyes and ignore the feeling and act the role you have been taught to keep playing. they will punish the sex workers, remove the places they can practice their trade safely. they will then make casual jokes about how they sexually harass their nanny.
and they love sex but they hate that you're having sex. you need to have their ornamental, perfunctory, dispassionate sex. so you can't kiss your girlfriend in the bible belt because it is gross to have sex with someone of the same gender. so you can't get your tubes tied in new england because you might change your mind. so you can't admit you were sexually assaulted because real men don't get hurt, you should be grateful. you cannot handle your own body, you cannot handle the risks involved, let other people decide that for you. you aren't ready yet.
but they need you to have sex because you need to have kids. at 15, you are old enough to parent. you are not old enough to hear the word fuck too many times on television.
they are horrified by sex and they never stop talking about it, thinking about it, making everything unnecessarily preverted. the saying - a thief thinks everyone steals. they stand up at their podiums and they look out at the crowd and they sign a bill into place that makes sexwork even more unsafe and they stand up and smile and sign a bill that makes gender-affirming care illegal and they get up and they shrug their shoulders and write don't say gay and they get up, and they make the world about sex, but this horrible, plastic vision of it that they have. this wretched, emotionless thing that holds so much weight it's staggering. they put their whole spine behind it and they push and they say it's normal!
this horrible world they live in. disgusted and also obsessed.
