imagine being stuck on an endless deployment in pete hegseth's navy and learning that by stuffing a t-shirt into the toilet you can send a nuclear powered aircraft carrier running to find a port as if the ship itself has just shit its pants, which it kinda has

not that there's anything wrong with having a crush on him anyway, but also, there was a girl on every other planet trying to marry this man, why would that be weird in the first place

among the layers of repression about gender I experienced there's that thing where girl children's interest in characters/celebrities/people gets filtered by genders into crushes so the teasing about liking the nerd character was always gendered. no dummy i wanted to be him.

Opinion: Fear shouldn't make our policy decisions A shooting in my apartment building left me and my neighbors shaken. But fear shouldn't make us lose sight of our humanity — or of the facts.

"The teenager we rush to label as 'bad' or 'useless' will one day return to the community, perhaps to your neighborhood, even the building next door. The real question is not whether he should be held accountable, but what kind of person we want him to come back as."

however, in my specific case, I realized before leaving as a teen that my dad maybe believed the ancient aliens thing when I'd thought he just thought it was interesting bc of/in relation to the scifi stuff, so it was interesting to him in that way?

I've seen a few good ongoing conversations about "why the heck did proto-maga bigots love star trek when it's so progressive, did they not actually watch it?" and while I grew up watching both with my proto-maga father something about stargate confuses me more
