105 notesscience fiction
science fiction with beautiful spaceships and galactic adoptive families and foolhardy captains and the crew that grows to love them
science fiction with space travel and emotionally complicated alien races fascinated by their difficult relationships with humans and humanity
science fiction that acknowledges its characters would likely have completely different concepts of sex and sexuality and gender and treats those subjects accordingly without conforming to modern day stereotypes and presumptions
:) science fiction!
7,043 notesdo you ever hear the intro theme to a video game and you get really emotional and your heart feels really weak like it’s coming back home and it’s basically like that whole world you love so much summed up into one epic song and you just want to fucking cry a lot because this is the video game for you and nothing else ever can even compare to the feeling you get when you hear that one fucking bit of music

THIS SCENE WAS LITERALLY THE TEXTBOOK DEFINITION
#you know it’s bad when you’re less progressive than a show from the 60’s
Wasn’t a fan of this scene. It was indeed totally pointless.
TEXTBOOK
not to mention it showed kirk explicitly ignoring consent
can we please not
I enjoyed Carol Marcus a lot more once I started imagining her going into EVERY conversation with kirk and bones like “i have to talk with you to stop my dad from fucking things up but if you look at my tits one more time while im trying to tell you how to save your worthless patriarchal lives im going to switch out your hairspray with tear gas” “oh bones did that torpedo close on your arm just after you were sexually patronizing me oh NO that must be so DIFFICULT for you what a strange coincidence” i just ignore the scene at the end where shes all like ~im part of ur family kirk~ ~were obvious love interests kirk~ hell no misandric fed-up-with-your-shit ice queen carol marcus to the END of my life
also im just really unhappy that kirk did that TBH I JUST IGNORE A TON OF SHIT THAT HAPPENED IN INTO DARKNESS. KIRK WOULDNT DO THAT. HE TREATS CONSENT WITH RESPECT GODDAMNIT. HE MAY BE INAPPROPRIATELY FORWARD AT TIMES BUT IF SOMEBODY TELLS HIM TO BACK OFF HE BACKS THE FUCK OFF AND APOLOGIZES. anyone who tries to wrest this headcanon from me will be getting a roundhouse kick to the face im not headcanoning anything for a character i love that sets him up as a protorapist without a lot of extra context and a redemption arc
