Me in high school reading about the Ancient Greek practice of Ornithomancy: Lol that’s so silly they really thought they could predict things about the future based on the random shit that birds do 😂
Me as an adult after seeing a swallow-tailed kite on my drive to work: oh my god that was everything. What a blessing. It is going to be the most beautiful perfect day. Everything is gonna go my way now I can just feel it

It always makes me sad whenever stories with hopeful messages or lighthearted moments are sometimes dismissed as unintelligent or weaker than tragedies. Isn't joy and hope what makes a dark journey worthwhile? Not every story needs an unhappy ending to serve as a lesson.
I will forever be a fan of stories that say hey, maybe the world is a rough place, and it will always be this way, but you can make a difference with the people who matter to you. Even if no one else will know, even if no one else will remember, the ones you loved, and who loved you in return, will remember. People who are holding onto you, even at the end of everything else. People who remind you that new beginnings are born from the ashes.
My favorite stories will always end with love, hope, and the sun rising on the horizon after hell and high waters. The world can be so cruel, but we can choose not to be as individuals. Joy is as human as anger and sorrow. Joy is what we reach for when we are at our lowest, whether we realize it or not. We want what was lost back. I love stories where the characters reach the light at the end of the tunnel, emerge on the other side, and are allowed to heal. Even if they’ve done bad things, even if they aren’t perfect, isn’t that true of all of us?

I think the idea that the majority of the qsmp bird people work for the federation/are children of the federation is really funny because it reminds me of the “birds aren’t real” meme
