discovery 05x04 proves that tv shows CAN and SHOULD do filler episodes even in short seasons. the plot moved nowhere but the characters did and that's what it's about!!! and about stopping for a minute and being weird!!! now can everyone else do it please

It kind of irritates me that there is a broad expectation in Star Trek spaces that everyone should automatically agree that Discovery is a messy show that wasn’t made very well. Even a lot of people who like the show will preface their statements with “I know it has a lot of problems” or something similar. Personally, I think Discovery is great and one of the least messy Trek shows writing-wise. I have no problem with people who disagree with that sentiment and don’t like Discovery (as long as it’s for non-bigoted reasons), I just wish there wasn’t this base assumption that no one actually completely likes Discovery or thinks it’s genuinely good.
Well, I like Discovery, and I think it’s genuinely good.

*Pops head into the Bowuigi tags like a neighbor's window*
Hey Bowuigi fans, I'm sticking my head in from the Peasley x Luigi tag to spread some good fortune! Love the work you do for the neighborhood!!
In case you didn't hear, Jack Black (Bowser's movie VA) released a cover of the song "Baby One More Time") and I think you all could get some good mileage out of it, if you haven't already.
Have fun and thank you for your service to the Luigi shipping community o7

But HSMTMTS removing Kourtney from the “female protagonist best friend” label to give her solos, a great plot and screen time was the the best choice ever made. The show improved a lot on Season 3 because of it and how they switched the dynamics to make it equal for the ladies and you cannot change my mind on that.

janeway sending her first officer, her pilot, and her resident genius into a volatile gravimetric space anomaly to fish out an old earth rocket was a choice!!! it was certainly a choice

Larger size: HERE Done and glazed! The commission for @the-lady-general is finally finished and I'm so proud of it!
The flowers are tuberoses, which in the language of flowers mean dangerous pleasures - which seemed terribly fitting, for the mirror universe. I had a lot of fun trying to combine art nouveau elements with the very stark art deco theming of the character design, and I think I managed to strike a reasonable balance between the two! I had to take a few liberties with some parts of her outfit, since finding high quality images of our dear Emperor's armour and base layers in anything other than godawful dramatic lighting was a very challenging. More than once I'd made an educated guess, discovered that someone took of a pic over where the costumes were actually being displayed in proper lighting, and realised I'd gotten something really quite wrong. I had to go back and completely redraw something probably a dozen times, but I think it was worth it in the end!
Also, can we talk about how art deco is apparently evil now, because I am here for that. I love that so much. That is too perfect, and I will be incorporating that into future mirror 'verse art.

how do you think in poems? i really enjoy the tags under your posts i've always wanted to write down my own thoughts that way bc in my head they feel so thorough and magical but whenever i put it in words i feel it just gets so much flatter and i no longer see a point and give up
oh oh oh, but lovely, can't you see that you've already started? it's a perspective that you hone, over time, something that is specific to you and you alone – that's the piece of it that makes it so special! you've already begun, and it only goes forward, up, sideways from here, wherever you wish to go!
think of it like a skill, for a moment, or a kind of muscle, if you'd prefer. you have to work at it, with it, over time and differing experiences, in order to progress.
(a quick important note: not progression as in the kind of quality-check of a grading scale, but progression as in evolution. shifting change. think of the leaves and their colors across the months of autumn, or temperatures rising with the sun and cooling with the evening dark. change isn't intrinsically a qualifying thing, it can just be, sometimes. this is difficult to remember, especially in the midst of frustration, but it is worth it. you are always doing better than you think you are – harshest critic, and all that.)
which is not to say that it's a simple thing to do! compare this to the vibe of me picking up crochet recently, with my shaking hands and too-quickly dwindling adhd focus – my first attempts at making a lil headphone sprout have not been going as well as i once hoped. my stitches are either too big and sloppy bc i'm not holding the yarn tightly enough to get clean ones, or i feel frustrated due to it not looking like how i'd like it to look in my mind when i started it, or even as i begin my umpteenth attempt.
but!! i know that it won't ever look the way i want it do if i set it down and never keep trying. it'll take awhile, like everything does, even the seasons take their time, the moon and its phases; but what i do know, is that, eventually, it'll resemble something i want it to. vaguely, maybe, but it is something. it doesn't have to look exactly like the guide i'm following, or the examples i'm inspired by, because it's mine – something made by my own hands, my own time and experience with every mistake and thrilling joy along the way to learn by.
take it from me: i want to be good at things i want to be good at so badly. and that excitement makes me want to be at the skill level i need to be at in order to do so right then and there, no learning curves or building blocks allowed. which is never how it happens, unfortunately, but –
i think, gently, that we tend to overlook what a pleasure it is to learn. to see the slow progression of things, to begin and change and continue and get better. and even if it's different as we go along, in a way it's our own little kind of magic, maybe, to create and never be done if we don't want to be.
which is all to say: it's already yours. why does it have to be anything else, anything more? why can't it just be good as it is now, where it might never be again? what is there to lose by enjoying the moment of where you are?
like everything, it will grow and shift and evolve with time, maybe into something you'd hoped for, or maybe into something you don't even have the words to describe right now at all. but that's the fun of it: how even now, even then, there, across time and distance and skill, there is a common thread of things; it will always come from your heart, your experience, where you are right then and there and now.
and if you think of that like magic, well, it becomes a little like magic, doesn't it?
also, something to consider: sometimes things you feel or think can't be put into words at that moment, or even at all! something else you could try (that i certainly do) is making something else with whatever it makes you feel - whether that's another form of art, or any other kind of media. if it makes you want to go outside and take a walk or get cozy and read or play a video game? that counts too! that's still an experience, you're still feeling.
i think that counts a little more than anything else, you know?
and as a little ending fun side-note, can i share something cool? i've never thought of it that way before, as thinking in poems. in my mind it's always been a kind of perspective of personal wonder, but you're right – it's poetry, in it's own way. you gave me that – so thank you, from the heart of me. i hope your journey finds you with every bright joy.

More adventures in fused glass: Birches in moonlight. I especially adore how the dichroic moon changes color depending on light and position.
