Day 2 of reminding the fediverse there are women who prefer shorter guys (source: am one of them). If y’all don’t want them I’ll take them. I’ll take them all.

?

Do his tariffs affect exports to the EU as well? Idk economics and I wanna buy a Framework laprop next year

She is an avid Israel supporter, too.

I have no difficulties believing it but I would like a source to cite to my mother who is recently moved away from Trumpism.

Is there video evidence?

Because humans like to make up categories which naturally cause inequality of some kind. I don’t want this but it’s the way it is and to pretend otherwise is ignorant and silly.

Right, anyway… I do like the fellow women I stumble upon on this site. I wish you gals all a lovely upcoming week!

The commenter likely means two-faced.

Right? Lmfao.

Cool, cool. Do mini PCs come with an OS preinstalled? And what are some good wireless keyboard brands?

Oh sweet! So, let’s say I install MAX on the mini PC; will it show up as a clickable app on the TV or will I always have to use the PC to click on things/start shows/etc?

People with curly hair:

They don’t seem to accept books in .pdf form, any solution?

NO. I have prepared my Christmas music playlist. I’m not playing around this year

I’m planning on using it as a personal computer and something I can use for college. So mainly writing text documents, web browsing, YouTube, but no gaming or video/image editing.

I’ve been trying to find sources online but I’m never sure if it’s the exact model. How do I get the product number? Like in specifications under settings (“model-ID”)?

That doesn’t sound exceedingly positive…

Happy!. The perfect mix of black comedy, violence, and weird central alien stuff.

Okay I’m too lazy to draw on the pictures so I’ll translate each slide in text form. I can’t believe my life has come to this lmao.

SLIDE 1: How Star Trek kickstarted the fandom culture online.

SLIDE 2: Common terms within fandom cultures. A picture of a Trekkie shown as a single individual, arrow pointing right to a Star Trek convention captioned with “part of the Star Trek fandom (collective).”

SLIDE 3: Common terms within fandom cultures, continued. Shipping: the act of shipping (characters) romantically. Occurs within practically all fandoms. Pictures of common ships (Sherlock/Watson, Eve/Villanelle, Aziraphale/Crowley, Piper/Alex). Canon vs fanon (true vs fan-made).

SLIDE 4: The famous slash phenomenon. It all begin with Star Trek: The Original Series as fans adored the dynamic between Spock and Kirk (+McCoy), leading to them creating fanart as shown in the slide. Known as Kirk “slash” Spock when tagging fanfictions depicting them in a romantic light, thus coining the term slash for homosexual male relationships.

SLIDE 5: Femslash, starting to take off more since the 90s. The lesbian counterpart to slash, not as popular however. Focus on shows with already existing queer women (like OITNB) or possibility of lesbian shipping (like The 100). Most representation comes from animated adult shows (Harley Quinn/Poison Ivy, Vi/Caitlyn, Adora/Catra, AJ/RD from MLP (not adult but it’s nostalgic to me)).

SLIDE 6: So what was fanfiction again…

SLIDE 7: The wonder that is AO3. A nonprofit organisation whose goal is to preserve fan works, most commonly written fanfiction.

SLIDE 8: Here I present the most popular slash ships in Star Trek. The fanfictions counted only apply to those posted on AO3, there are more sites like fanfiction dot net and Wattpad which have more.

SLIDE 9: The popular femslash ships in Star Trek. Same principle.

I finished the PowerPoint with my personal favourite ship (hint: DS9). I lazily translated all of this and I spoke more once I presented it verbally so if anybody has any questions I’ll be happy to answer lol. I stayed up until 3AM to make this and I didn’t take it very seriously but it was fun! And my dad liked it. Not shipping tho.
