The thing that is truly wonderful about this episode is not Rod from another dimension. It's Sheppard going out of his way to help Rodney heal his relationship with his sister. If anyone knows how annoying and arrogant Rodney can be, it's Sheppard. But if anyone knows how courageous and caring Rodney can be, it's Sheppard.
Sheppard listens to Rodney talk about not liking Rod, he helps Rodney get to the point of understanding why his sister is upset with him, and then he helps him heal that relationship.
And then, he takes it one step further and rebuilds Rodney's faith in his friends, that they love him and want him around.
Such a great episode. It always makes me tear up when Rodney and Jeanie fix things.
Also, I love that Jeanie is a mom and is happy to be so. I love her house, her wardrobe, her relationship with her husband and daughter. I love that she isn't thrown under the bus for the choices she makes or devalued next to Elizabeth and Carter. In fact, Rod praises her for being the best mom he knows. High praise indeeded.

I really do love this moment where Rodney’s first instinct is to get between Elizabeth and Kolya’s gun, he realizes what he’s done, clearly has a flash of panic (as seen above) but still stays in front of her.  It says a lot about what he’s like under all that prickliness.  I call him my problematic fave for many reasons, and this is one of them.

thinking about how if i got transported to Atlantis i would fool them into thinking im some sort of trickster fae bc I'd know all their names even their Secret Names and i wouldn't give them mine but they "could call me mushroom" and I'd tell them about my best friend stick and how she didn't like her name, but seeing as i am a fae creature she gave it to me and i gave her the name stick (true story, just ask her) and if i had the ata gene well that'd just be the icing on the cake wouldn't it

John: I mean, yeah, we are best friends, but I would kiss you if you asked.
Rodney: What?
John: What?
Teyla, sipping tea in the background: He said he would kiss you if you asked.

tom wambsgans' name doesn't sound as strange and bizzare when you also love a guy named meredith rodney mckay
ASFADGYCASTG ANON PLEASE. I am laughing so hard, what IS this???? I think I've talked about stargate on this blog once, MAYBE twice, and the fact that his name is MEREDITH Rodney Mckay is not, like, deep lore, I guess, but this means that either a) you happen to also watch Stargate so you knew that already, or b) you don't watch Stargate but you were so curious about my taste in men that you googled him. I genuinely don't know how to process this. And the fact that you said this on anon is unnecessarily foreboding. I don't do a ton to keep my fandom identities separate - my main is in my succ blog bio - and yet this somehow still feels like a very bizarre form of blackmail.
Anyways. I contend that Tom still wins the bizarre name contest because 'McKay' is an exceedingly normal last name, and he goes by 'Rodney', not Meredith. Also Rodney has the backstory of his parents being kind of shitty to lean back on as an excuse. What does Tom have, huh? Just whatever ancestor needed a surname and decided 'Wamsbgans' was a good and normal and appropriate name to have.
(That being said I don't know that I've roasted Tom's last name on this blog??? I think 'Wambsgans' is definitely funny just because it has certain Vibes, but idk that I've ever openly roasted it. Maybe I'm wrong though.)

Happy 19th Birthday, Stargate Atlantis!
On July 16th, 2004, the pilot aired. Here's a handy little primer for anyone who doesn't know what the heckity heck this show is about. Everything is totally accurate, 100% true and very, very serious.
So.
Tumblr media
This is the lost city of the Ancients, Atlantis, in the Pegasus galaxy, about 3 million light years from Earth. (The Ancients can go fuck themselves. Long story.) Atlantis is a city/spaceship approximately the size of Manhattan. She's semi-sentient, but not really, except actually yes, maybe, sometimes, totally. The whole city can go underwater or into hyperspace. Loves her humans. Home. Declaration of independence imminent.
The Atlantis expedition consists of civilians and military from at least 34 countries (in later seasons, the original expedition was just over a dozen). In no particular order:
Tumblr media
Dr. Elizabeth Weir. The first leader of the expedition. The only adult. Sometimes. Okay, not very often. Is not above a little war crime for the good of the galaxy—or at least, for the good of Atlantis. Left a boyfriend and a dog on Earth, but we all miss the dog more than the boyfriend. Eats UN representatives for breakfast. Is terribly awkward on dates and really good at solitaire. Loves her chaos children. Which are:
Tumblr media
Lt. Colonel Suicide Mission John Sheppard. Walked through the Gate and Atlantis said, "dibs". Thinks people who don't want to fly are crazy. Not good with emotional stuff. (He's getting better.) Loves his found space family and would die for them, often literally. Stop that. Also loves Ferris wheels, things that go fast, and Rodney McKay. And no, we don't know how he gets his hair to go like that.
Tumblr media
Dr. Meredith Rodney McKay. Four degrees, two of which are PhDs, none of which are in social skills. Smartest man in two galaxies. Used to be an asshole, but got himself some friends who loved him such a stupid amount that he had no choice but to change. Still a work in progress. We love to see it. Blew up three quarters five sixths of a solar system. (It was uninhabited.) (Mostly.) Deathly allergic to citrus. Loves fully charged ZPMs, arguing with Dr. Zelenka, MREs, and John Sheppard.
Tumblr media
Lieutenant Aiden Ford. Went ass first through the Gate with a grin and a whoop on his very first trip. One of the youngest members of the expedition. Is not allowed to name anything, ever. Mild case of hero worship when it comes to his commanding officer, which is totally understandable. A cautionary tale of how addiction messes up not only you, but the people around you.
Tumblr media
Ronon Dex. Used to be hunted by the Wraith, lost his people in a terrible war, and is now a member of Sheppard's team where he gets to shoot things and beat up bad guys. Doesn't talk much, but when he does, he has something to say. Good friend. Excellent hugs, but have Carson check you out for any cracked ribs after. Is one bottle of Athosian wine away from staging an intervention regarding the Sheppard/McKay situation.
Tumblr media
Teyla Emmagan. In possession of the team's one brain cell. Leader of the Athosian people. Will rock a baby to sleep and then go outside where a Wraith is dangling from the highest tower of the city and stomp on his hands until he falls 800 feet. Can either beat you up in the gym or force you to meditate on your problem, your choice. Has the aforementioned bottle of wine ready and loaded.
Tumblr media
Dr. Radek Zelenka. Keeps the science team sane because Rodney sure as hell doesn't. Loves pigeons, cursing in Czech, and overseeing the thriving black market underground economy that has developed in the city. (Thanks @shaddyr for that lovely headcanon). Zachránil všechny naše zadky víc než jednou.
Tumblr media
Chuck the Technician. Aggressively Canadian. Doesn't have a last name, doesn't need one. Is ALWAYS in the control room, seriously man, when do you sleep? Reads trashy sci fi novels on night shifts and organized a betting pool in 5 different currencies when Ronon was fighting Teal'c. Needs to share his eyelash routine because we're jealous.
Tumblr media
Dr. Carson Beckett. The most Scottish Scot to ever Scot. Brilliant medical doctor who is not above the occasional unethical unorthodox treatment method. Sweet cinnamon roll of a man. Beloved by all. Loves his mom and wee baby turtles. Someone should take him fishing soon. 🥹
Tumblr media
Colonel Samantha Carter. Member of SG-1. Legend. Awesome. Boss. Absolute BAMF. Punched a Goa'uld system lord in the face once. We all have a crush on her.
Tumblr media
Dr. Jennifer Keller. Is very doctor-y, for better and for worse. Was all of us when she freaked out being on an alien planet for the first time, like a normal person would. Should totally have gone on a date with Captain Vega in that one deleted scene. [WE COULD HAVE HAD IT AAAAALL]
Tumblr media
Jeannie Miller. Rodney's sister. Gave up a career in science to be a mom. Solved Rodney's math problem in her spare time, with finger paints. Loves her brother even when he's being an idiot. Fanfic canon says: her house is always open for him and certain Air Force Colonels to crash in. Don't you dare get a hotel room. Yes, the guest room has Only One Bed, Mer, what's your point?
Tumblr media
Major Evan Lorne. If you are a moron and get yourself captured and imprisoned off world, he will swing by real quick with a couple Marines and bust you out. Co-parents Atlantis with Dr. Weir. Is actually a really talented painter. Needs a raise, a holiday, and a drink.
Tumblr media
Colonel Steven Caldwell. Grumpy. Has to deal with Elizabeth's chaos children on a regular basis. Will make the enemy ship go away with a big boom and save your sorry ass in space. AGAIN.
Tumblr media
Richard Woolsey. Used to be a New York City lawyer, one of the most ruthless creatures in the universe. His wife got the Yorkie in the divorce. Broke his heart. Is actually pretty cool if you let him do his thing (like get you out of an intergalactic war crimes trial by bribing the judges).
I know some characters and all the villains are missing, but this post is already longer than a trip on the Daedalus, so there you have it.
Stargate Atlantis. A show about wormholes, life-sucking aliens, ancient civilisations, space battles—and family, friendship, allowing yourself to love and be loved, and what it means to be home.
Happy birthday, fam.

Steamy Saturday
Sam: a successful man who is also an unabashed homosexual.
Toby: lusts darker and more deadly than homosexuality ate at his being.
Addie: she craved fulfillment as a woman.
Walter: he could love both men and women -- for pay.
A frank novel of lives and loves in a strange twilight world.
For 1959, this was steam beyond steam. But even in its time, Sam by American novelist and playwright Lonnie Coleman (1920-1982), published in New York by David McKay Publications, and issued as a pulp paperback a year later by Pyramid Books, was praised for its sharp writing, witty dialogue, well-developed characters, and its frank, sensitive treatment of a subject that was quite taboo in its day. This is not surprising, as Coleman, who was an editor at Ladies' Home Journal and Collier's, was already a very successful author of eight novels and several short stories before writing Sam. And his success continued after Sam, especially with his 1973 Civil War-themed New York Times Best Seller Beulah Land, which along with its sequel Look Away, Beulah Land (1977) was turned into the highly-popular but critically-panned 1980 NBC tv miniseries Beulah Land starring Lesley Ann Warren, Michael Sarrazin. Meredith Baxter, and Don Johnson.

Stargate-Atlantis S4:E9 Miller's Crossing
In which Sheppard uses the chain of command to protect Rodney from sacrificing himself and then finds a willing sacrifice. In which I cry at the lengths Sheppard will go to keep his people whole. In which I will cry at the beautiful sibling relationship between Rodney and his sister.

This sign from “The Eye” remains amusing, although I feel like if anything, McKay should have this even more throughout the city.
Tumblr media
He’s so grumpy here.  It’s probably unhealthy that makes me go :D but whatever, media/fandom is all about safely scratching such unhealthy impulses.

There has been a bead craft project percolating in the back of my head for several months now, and tonight I finally got the impetus, so may I present..

What Would Dr Meredith Rodney McKay PhD PhD Do?
(A phone strap, because it’s too long for a bracelet)
Options include: attempting to break out of a quarantined lab with a garden trowel, blowing up 5/6 of a solar system, fainting passing out, and, most importantly, yelling at idiots 🙌
