[AGGRESSIVE DANCE OFF]

Headcanon: I can muster a cogent argument for why it would make more sense or make for a better story if this were the case

Heartcanon: I don’t have a particular rationale for why this ought to be the case, I just like to imagine it’s true because it gives me the warm fuzzies

Gutcanon: it’s not that I actively want this to be the case – it just unaccountably feels like it should be

Junkcanon: I like to imagine it’s true because it gives me the other kind of warm fuzzies

Spleencanon: I insist that this is the case specifically to spite the author, because, like, fuck you, sir or madam

A final selection of Pat Troughton's varied looks in The Adventures of the Scarlet Pimpernel (ITP, 1955 - 1956)

To anyone who was suicidal at age 14 or younger, here’s your permission to grieve. Here’s your permission to not joke about it or just flat out ignore it. Here’s your permission to acknowledge that lost child who felt way more pain than any child should ever feel. You’re allowed to cry for that child, whether you healed or are still suffering the same thoughts. Finally allow yourself to grieve for that child filled with undeserved hurt.

I saw your recent response to the question concerning the supposed romance between Spock and Kirk. And you said that we would never know unless Gene Roddenberry rose from the grave. As compelling as your argument was I just never got that vibe from The Original Series. I have always felt that Gene's ideas were groundbreaking and revolutionary. I think that if Gene meant there to be a gay couple he would have had the balls to write it right out. Then again it was a different time. Love your blog!

but like

he did have the balls to write it

The origin of t’hy’la: Gene Roddenberry came up with the name in his novelization of Star Trek: The Motion Picture. The word “t’hy’la” is Vulcan and means ‘brother’, ‘friend’ and/or ‘lover’. The use of t’hy’la: "Jim! Goodbye, my…my t’hy’la. This is the last time I will permit myself to think of you or even your name again.""And on the bridge - Kirk! The mere name made Spock groan inwardly as he remembered what it had cost him to turn away from that welcome. T’hy’la!"

Roddenberry: “I definitely designed it as a love relationship… That was the relationship I tried to draw. I think I also tried to draw a feeling of belief that very few of us are complete unto ourselves. It’s quite a lovely thing… where two halves make a whole.”

Interviewer: “There’s a great deal of writing in the Star Trek movement which compares the relationship between Alexander and Hephaistion to the relationship between Kirk and Spock - focusing on the closeness of the friendship, the feeling that they would die for one another…”Roddenberry: “Yes, there’s certainly some of that - certainly with love overtones. Deep love. The only difference being, the Greek ideal - we never suggested in the series - physical love between the two. But it’s the - we certainly had the feeling that the affection was sufficient for that, if that were the particular style of the 23rd century.”

Snape animation Project (WIP, first seconds render test)

I wanted to see how everything works together, so I rendered the first couple of seconds of the whole “short film” as a test Almost nothing in there is final (I rendered it in much lower quality, without smoke simulations, etc), a ton of details would be added a bit later but here you go, unfinished food but tasty non the less

I’m all scratched up and I can still taste spray paint in my mouth and my husband almost fell out of a tree BUT THE GHOST SCULPTURES ARE FINISHED!

They’re finally finished and I’m so happy with them!!
