recently read the time magazine special edition “Star Trek: inside the most influential science fiction series ever” a good portion of it is stuff a lot of fans probably already know, but there was some info in there that was still new to me, and lots of gorgeous photos that were amazing to see in print, too, so still definitely an enjoyable read! (apart from a couple instances of weirdly superiority, bro-esque writing, but that only occurred in one of the articles, thankfully)
one thing I really enjoyed about the visual aspect of the magazine though was some of the costuming visuals! For example, these crisp shots show not only the tailoring and seams but literally the construction and stitching on the TMP era uniforms 😍😍 (check out the stitching on the sleeve ranks in particular!!!)
next up, some extremely cool science things I didn’t know about and love that they exist:
this shot is excellent both for De fans (me) and also for seamstresses and costumers (also me!) because of that excellent, and rare, shot of the back of a TOS women’s uniform with seams and construction visible… positively a seamstress dream!! such a good garment structuring reference 👏🏻
also, an up close on one of Quark’s outfits that shows definitively that this outerwear jacket is, in fact, rainbowy tweed!!, a fashion statement I vote we bring back:
(it reminds me of this couch and blanket from my childhood, it was extremely 1970s and I loved it)
this little Kirk & Spock character comparison panel appeared next to an excerpt of Shatner’s writing, and to me it would fit in perfectly with those “who’s dating who” activity panels etc in magazines like seventeen, which, excellent execution, that’s such a good vibe to have considering The Premise 👏🏻
speaking of— I wish they’d mentioned slash fic, The Premise, early fanfic mail chains etc waaay more than they did (and for that matter, highlight way more just how important and vital the women Trekkies were!) but hey, at least they mentioned Spirk shippers, along with other parts of the magazine mentioning queer and nonbinary+trans rep in trek. could’ve/should’ve been more, but—
anyways! It’s still a fun magazine to read through and has lots of fun images even if you’re already familiar with the stories. (did you know there used to be an Enterprise shaped landline phone you could buy? I didn’t, and now I very much want one lol) it also highly benefits from having article writers of multiple genders, so there’s that, too. 🖖🏻

Stop spreading neocon fascist femcel rhetoric. The wisdom of repugnance is fascist ideology popularized by terfs using faux progressive language to remove queer art from the internet.
Criticize the things you dislike without becoming a nazi.
:]
I'm spreading anti-semitsim how anon??? If you're referring to helluva/hazbin then boy howdy do I have some ROUGH news for you :/
Also vivziepop took the femcel nearly terf-like behavior as well do you SEE How she writes her female and trans characters it's not a good look.....🤔
This is why the fandom can never take or handle criticism while queer people are coming from a genuine place all they want to do is scream over how 'wrong you are since you don't get it', read a book bro you're quick to insult over insight. I've actually met some holocaust survivors and frequently visit the memorial museum within my state to pay respect. Do your research babe<3

So I was listening to Finally Free and idk if that's just me but I noticed that it makes a Lot of references to other jatp songs. Either with words but also with meanings so here are some lines that stood out to me:
"Now till eternity" "Come alive" - Now or Never
"I'm awakened" "I got a spark in me" - Wake Up
"Watch me shine" "We're all bright now" - Bright
"I wanna fly" "And you're a part of me" - Flying Solo
"Marching on proud, turn it up loud" - I Got the Music
"Cause now we know what we're worth" "We know we can make it, we're not falling down under" - Edge of Great
"Coming out like we're fireworks" "So we push all our fears away" "Close my eyes and feel my chest beating like thunder" - Stand Tall

But now:
Denji and Aki and Kishibe in sweatpants <3
What do you think?
woah okay!!
denji in grey sweatpants isn't safe around me. tbh he'd wear them on purpose. he knows you like them so he complies (half hoping you give him a bj at some point during the day when you're in the mood). on this topic, i think denji would let his partner style him however they want. cause like?? bro doesn't really have a fashion sense nor cares too much about his appearance. as long as you're happy with it he'd wear anything.
Aki has no idea how delicious he looks. for him, sweatpants are a commodity, he really doesn't see the appeal so he's surprised when you tell him he looks hot in them. will he wear them more often from then on? absolutely. does he get flustered when you stare at the outline of his dick? YES
and kishibe, surprisingly enough, would look cute. like hot too but mostly cute. i'm such a sucker for old men in casual clothes like yes pookie, take off that suit and put on some sweatpants i'll make you a cup of warm tea, a sandwitch and tuck you in while we cuddle and watch a movie.
with this in mind i offer you these gorgeous fanarts i found on pinterest. artists credited in the tags
