whos idea was it to use this fish eye lens in season three of star trek id like to have a word with them

it’s the best and worst thing to ever have happened to me

gonna be testing the “ill listen to anything” mfs with this one

Spock and Sherlock Holmes are the same brand of “this character has been around for SO long and basically everyone agrees they’re gay or at least some flavor of queer. so much so that they’ve impacted the minds and hearts of GENERATIONS of queer people but for some reason, no matter how many adaptions and spin offs we get in the years since the original work, no one making the official work has had the guts to say it officially ”

yes sir. incredibly. thank you for your service.

So. The trailer is out. Happy?

sobbing actual tears 🥺

Y’all I love the dynamic in episode 5 so much…

One of the reasons I love ofmd is because Ed and Stede are both repressed in ways that are inherently exclusive to queer men but in completely different ways. It makes the way they learn from each other so interesting and informs what they need from each other.

Stede’s able to present himself in a way that reads as queer by modern standards his whole life because of his aristocratic status, but he doesn’t want it. (And yes modern standards matter in a historical fiction show that has lines like “ew, lame” 😂). His whole life he’s been blamed by everyone in his life for not being “man” enough, not being able to even fake it till he makes it. The fact that his queerness is worn on his sleeve at all times with only the virtue of period typical straight obliviousness keeping him hidden makes it so he almost kind of has a “been there done that” attitude about it. After all, it only ever lead to bad things.

Meanwhile Blackbeard is the exact masculine ideal Stede thinks he (himself) should be, and he doesn’t want that. Ed’s the perfect definition of a “real man” but it’s something he was forced to hastily toss up like a wall for defense decades ago without actually considering what makes him feel like himself. He lights up at the promise of colorful fancy clothes, he likes being soft and kind of ridiculous, he wants to be the one who’s wooed by someone he likes. But he can’t ever really have an outlet for those things because he accidentally became the literal poster child of traditional masculinity. (It’s the classic “ran into the closet so hard you broke through the wall and don’t even know where tf you are now” lol)

So what happens in episode 5?

Ed let’s Stede “save the day” instead of him which culminates in a ship on fire (peak swash buckling), and Stede let’s Ed stand under the moonlight and basically hear that he’s pretty.

reblog to donate your breasts to phil lester. i’m sure he wants them more than most of his fanbase.

Hey remember how last night Phil said he wanted double G's?

Guys for the love of fuck can we please stop treating queer rep like a competition? And yes this is 100% about that cringe ass ask someone sent Neil Gaiman.

New video with Dan! Something we want to tell you
