reading a book called Boldly Writing, which is a sort of chronicle of the early Star Trek fandom's fanzines and fanfiction, and it's really interesting. It's a fairly plain chronological retelling but it still speaks to me all these years later, mainly because of how it makes me feel about fandom ๐Ÿงต

Look at what we could have. look at what our tax dollars could pay for. Instead weโ€™re paying to have ICE pepper spray directly into the air hole of a guy in an inflatable frog costume

But what if this was pancakes that transitioned into waffles? Would you love them then? As the alt-right whose opinions you love to uphold would say, I'm just asking questions.

Most of us can't afford to flee. I know when I do it's going to be with a backpack and a plane or a bus ticket. I'll have to abandon everything in place and hope like heck the country I arrive in takes the situation seriously.

I don't want to do this, but I need help

I need to escape an abusive situation

I don't know how much I need so I'll just put a ballpark around $1000.

I don't know if I'll have to leave earlier than October 1st to go into a hotel to get away from her.

Any help is appreciated

I wouldn't even mind it so much if it wasn't for the fact there's also Ben Sisko (enabling assassination), Kirk (arming natives to fight a proxy war), & Archer (was going to say anything he does but that's not true; only most things he does jk) & others that we could all discuss ad nauseum

I doubt it. Putting a 24-hour ban on a trans woman for saying the mildest joke 2 times in one month for no reason while enabling the worst of the worst to continue posting garbage doesn't scream rules clarity. Do better, idiots
