the thing abt legend of galactic heroes is that I do unironically believe it belongs on the list of things to get into if you like friends at the table. but also unfortunately it’s 110 episodes and not particularly like. easy to find anywhere. and like. *I* think it’s well worth it but my idea of good television is shows where most of the action is people sitting around talking abt plots & themes. which I realize that plenty of people think is ““boring”” or whatever. however. I am fully (sickos dot jpeg voice) yes!!! hahaha yes!!!! every time there’s another scene of people sitting around a conference table discussing their plans and schemes

samsam divorced so hard that millennia later not only did most people not know samot existed a lot of people in the church of samothes confidently argued that samothes had never fucked. this man had a husband and son and got divorced so hard they were wiped from history

Timeline of OTW Hiring of a Diversity Consultant
We have been seeing some claims that OTW has already hired a Diversity Consultant. We wish that were true! At this point all that’s been done is appoint a volunteer to research diversity consultants
Here is a timeline, as best we can construct, of this issue.
June 2020
OTW first talked about hiring an external contractor in their June 2020 statement on racism, and said they would start researching options “in the coming months”
July 2021
In July 2021, a year later, they announced that they had created two new “officer” roles, including one to start researching diversity consultants. (OTW uses the terms “officers” & “staff”, but those are currently unpaid volunteer roles)
April 2022
In April 2022, almost a year after THAT, they appointed one of two Diversity Consultant Research Officers & said they would be starting work. (I guess technically that’s still “coming months” from 2020? lol)
January 2023
In January 2023, when asked about the timeline for working with a diversity consultant, OTW said they hoped to “conclude the project” in 5 years. Also they had not yet appointed a second officer.
March 2023
Which brings us to the most recent OTW Board meeting in March 2023, almost another year after the officer had been appointed, when we received the first update on what they had been working on.
OTW was asked about the five year timeline, & this time we were told that they hoped the project would be concluded OR have “made great progress” in five years, again moving the goalposts.
Currently
Looking at this timeline, this could make it eight years before we see anything substantial (3 til now +5 more) in significantly addressing this issue. This is unacceptable. We know they have the funds to hire consultants.
This is why we’re demanding that OTW make good on their commitment and hire someone in the next 3-6 months. It’s not an unreasonable ask given that the officer has already had more than a year to work on this and we are 3 years out since we were told this was a priority.

doctor who is like heres one of the most complicated and tragic friends-to-enemies-to-friends-to-lovers stories youll ever experience about two very tormented people finding and losing each other again and again and again across time and space and wanting each other without reaching for each other and caring for each other without wanting to admit it and crying for each other without the other knowing but one of their names is ‘the master’ and one of their names is ‘the doctor’ so you cant take any of it seriously at all
love this post bc it reminded me that the master literally ages the doctor into a shitty 2000s cgi raisin and pushes him around singing scissor sisters’ “i can’t decide” and then later in the SAME ARC dies in the doctor’s arms ON PURPOSE just to spite him as he screams and sobs for him 2 stay alive so he’s not left alone in the universe
What do you mean “the same arc”, it happens in the same episode
They also wax lyrical about how they need each other but they also constantly destroy each other, and once had the baller line “if we fight like animals, we’ll die like animals” while the two of them rolled around on the ground, but unfortunately that happened in the same episode as The Master was physically metamorphosing into a catboy.
I fail to see how that’s unfortunate.

i feel like high school/middle school sitcoms set the unrealistic expectation of being able to have lunch time outside
ok because apparently i’m wrong about this, reblog with where you live and whether you got to eat lunch outside during school or not

6. which ship fans are the most annoying?
objectively the correct answer here is r*ylo but that’s low hanging fruit that’s no fun many of them (or at least the most vocal of them) *are* very annoying but I can think of something spicier. I mean. this isn’t a specific ship (although this is more prevalent in some m/f ships than others) but there sure is a trend that I notice of. when someone is An M/F Ship Fan as opposed to just like, a fan of an m/f ship, and I’m reading fic for the one main ship but then literally every background character in the fic is paired up into other m/f ships and I’m like. was that really necessary? did we have to pair everyone off? could we not have made anyone single or gay? no? (my other specific answer, which is one of the ship fandoms where I see a lot of this, is f!b*leth/d*miti of ‘pegging is hardcore bdsm’ fame) (which is nothing against people who like that ship and aren’t Like That abt it, it’s not for me but I’m glad they’re having a good time and I’m sorry that they are known by the most obnoxious of their number)
24. topic that brings up the most rancid discourse
the top/bottom discourse. the 'is wwx the worst person ever’ discourse. the discourse that ensues anytime anyone makes even the mildest critique of the ways in which fandom trends might even slightly be influenced by or reflective of real world biases.
25. common fandom complaint that you’re sick of hearing
if I hear one (1) more person say that all f/f fic (or art. or fiction in general) is all cutesy and boring and sanitized I am going to start biting
