KAIRI said to Tam and Natsupoi after the match on June 25th.

“Wherever I go, I will continue to watch over the both of you.”

KAIRI said after the match on August 4th.

“If we had won this match, I had something planned to tell everyone. However, it is not easy to say it here. I will hold a press conference on the matter at a later date.”

KAIRI has since announced the press conference shall occur tomorrow.

some of the big nearby guys as moth things (and also the iris)

iris was the first one drawn

earth has mammalian fluffy ears because life form

mars has wheels for a similar reason

saturn was inspired by saint rainworld

saturn's wings are way too small to allow flight. thankfully they have other ways to hover

the sun was inspired by the radiance from hollow knight. might've also been inspired a bit by providence the profaned goddess

i dont know why i drew some of them like that

i dont know of any moths that are venomous. which is good because iris is something else

might change some of the designs

God bless Russell T. Davies, patron saint of respecting the audience

#doctor who #dr who #rtd #russell t davies #just watch the second special #I died #Rtd writes like he expects audiences to actually watch the episode and never pulls a crappy gotcha just because he has the power #Like yeah I KNOW bringing Tennant and Tate back was because Chibnall almost destroyed the brand and they needed to pull it back but OHHH #they gave us an actual STORY #They invented another beautiful cosmic horror #They gave us banter and wit without it being snippy or disrespectful or “oohooohhh look at how clever I am” wank #This episode only had two actors in it and still had enough moving pieces to make one delicious puzzle #I cannot WAIT to see what they do with the regeneration #Ncuti Gatwa is walking into an environment primed by RTD to make people feel ready to WATCH #To experience entertainment that brings you back from week to week under a man who actually knows how to craft STORIES! #Holy shit I forgot how much I used to love this show #And now I remember #Big fucken heart eyes emoji

Strange New World's Tomorrow and Tomorrow and Tomorrow and Warhammer 40,000, the musical [audio not found].

This is from a lovely and very, very thinky Discord conversation. Thank you, guys! There's more thoughts I need to get out of my head, specifically because I've hit my personal limit of what I think the Federation can get away with as a utopia, and also because I didn't want to bore a server full of trekkies with my 40k thoughts.

TLDR: I've often said that when the fridge logic hits, ENT becomes better than what the writers intended. I think SNW has the opposite problem: When the fridge logic hits, it hits me with a spiky baseball bat. Everything I didn't like is under the cut, don't go there if you want to avoid it.

Here's the intro to the Eisenhorn omnibus, the oldest Black Library book I could reach on my shelf. I'll quickly transcribe the parts I've highlighted, explain what I love about it, and then I'll get right back to what it has to do with Strange New Worlds.

===

"For more than a hundred centuries the Emperor has sat immobile on the Golden Throne of Earth. [...] He is the Carrion Lord of the Imperium for whom a thousand souls are sacrificed every day, so that he may never truly die. [...] But for all their multitudes, [the vast armies of the Imperium] are barely enough to hold off the ever-present threat from aliens, heretics, mutants -- and worse. To be a man in such times is to be one amongst untold billions. It is to live in the cruellest and most bloody regime imaginable. [...] Forget the promise of progress and understanding, for in the grim dark future there is only war."

===

Fun Fact: This is where "grimdark" in speculative fiction comes from! Thanks, The General Situation of Northern England in the mid-80s!

So, it all starts with a soul-eating machine. The soul-eating machine kills ~ 1,000 people per day. It is the only way in which humans get to go faster than light, because the not-quite-corpse and soul-eating machine arrangement is basically a lighthouse for hyperspace.

The Imperium is living in the shadow of a great, bright, and optimistic past. It came out of an advanced civilisation that had gone through many destructive wars on Earth. The Emperor was a man of science and reason and wanted humanity to live in prosperity, unhindered by wars or prejudice. He abolished religion in favour of humanism. He wanted to build a utopia for all mankind. Absolute dogshit parent though.

Ultimately, he built the soul-eating machine to justify the utopia, and when he wasn't in a position to object, his successors strapped him in and slapped the go button. Utopia postponed, blame those damn heretics/mutants/aliens.

That was the decision that led to the grim dark future without escape. Do you dare *not* fed the soul-eating machine? Do you dare unplug the not-quite-corpse? It's how it has always been. It could be worse. It's every single wrong one human could possibly inflict on another for everyone, for ever. It could be worse. It'll never get better. It steadily gets worse. It could be worse. It's always two minutes to midnight and no sacrifice ever stopped the clock from ticking. It could be so much worse without the soul-eating machine.

It is unbearably bad.

By contrast, here is an excerpt from the Charter of the United Federation of Planets, as seen on Voyager (or Memory Alpha in my case):

===

"We the lifeforms of the United Federation of Planets determined to save succeeding generations from the scourge of war, and to reaffirm faith in the fundamental rights of sentient beings, in the dignity and worth of all lifeforms, in the equal rights of members of planetary systems large and small, …"

===

So Tomorrow and Tomorrow and Tomorrow had a Starfleet security officer who was ready to sacrifice her career only two episodes ago in order to reunite a little girl with her parents. She goes back in time to stop an unknown event that leads to the destruction of Earth. She is confronted with baby Hitler who lives in a vague yet menacing government(?) bunker in Toronto and tells him he is *exactly* where he needs to be.

*record scratch* Sorry. That was a bit flippant. So again, from the top:

La'an travels back in time, with Sam Kirk's brother from a different timeline. She is reluctant to open up to him because of her family trauma (separate & discrete from her childhood trauma), but notorious charmer James T. Kirk (from the USS Iowa, not to be confused with James T. Kirk from Iowa, US) helps her out of her shell. They realise that someone is trying to prevent the Eugenics Wars, having already successfully delayed them until 2023. Deciding that the Eugenics Wars were the one and only factor that led to the United Federation of Planets, La'an and Kirk then decide that they must make sure the Eugenics Wars happen at any cost.

(They do not know that the one and only factor leading to the formation of the United Federation of Planets were the Vulcans witnessing humanity's first FTL flight, nor that Zefram Cochrane was motivated by greed to build the warp 1 engine.)

They find Khan Noonien-Singh in the secret Toronto bunker of the Noonien-Singh Institute, a vague yet menacing organisition with unspecified goals. Khan expects La'an to kill him, but instead she hugs him, tells him he is exactly where he needs to be and leaves him alone in his bunker slash prison question mark.

*record scratch* I mean, La'an goes through quite some emotional distress once she realises that the fate of humanity and all Federation members rests on her shoulders, and that restoring the Iowa, US timeline means killing Kirk from the USS Iowa timeline (and, presumably, everyone else from that timeline, but we're not worried about them).

(They're not aware that there is already an alternate timeline in which James T. Kirk was born on a spaceship that is happily co-existing with the Iowa, US timeline).

La'an is even further distressed when she is faced with the choice of killing Khan and preventing the Eugenics Wars and WWIII, but realises that she can absolutely not kill an innocent child. She tells the innocent child he is exactly where he is supposed to be before leaving him with a loaded gun in a top secret, vague yet menacing bunker in a room that would be declared unfit as a human habitat BY THE UK because it doesn't even have a window.

*record scratch* I mean, La'an saves baby Hitler, gives him a weapon and a justification for starting the bloodiest and most destructive wars in Earth history, and she is expressly forbidden from seeing a counsellor about this at the end of the episode.

*record scratch* I mean, a Starfleet security officer leaves seven children too young to make their own healthcare decisions to be genetically manipulated by a vague yet menacing government(?) organisation. The fact that this is to bring about the bloodiest wars in Earth history makes this better, somehow.

Tomorrow and Tomorrow and Tomorrow says that the only way in which the United Federation of Planets can exist is by soul-eating machine. It postulates that suffering must act as the catalyst for the utopia. I find that horrifying. I already found it horrifying when Gerne it.

But this is the second time SNW has strapped a child into the soul-eating machine. Except this time, were strapping *seven* children into the soul-eating machine, and we're not even asking them for consent, let alone informed consent.

This is framed as utterly vital.

It is unbearably bad.

If the Federation can *only* exist if its defenders are ready (if unwilling) to feed children into the soul-eating machine, then it cannot be worth it. If the condition for utopia is the suffering and deaths of millions it *cannot* be worth it. It'll endlessly retread what it has always done, it'll swing from one sacrifice to the next, it'll keep shifting who constitues an acceptable sacrifice, and 10,000 years down the line they'll look at their not-quite-corpse steering a soul-eating machine and wonder where it all went wrong.

The Federation is about the dignity and worth of all sentient life. Everything else must be in service to that.

Don't we already live in a utopian world that builds it's utopia for a few billionaires on the suffering of the many? Does the story about the post-scarcity utopia really have to haggle the ratio in favour of the many instead of going balls to the wall UTOPIA FOR EVERYONE YES EVEN THOSE PEOPLE? Star Trek is the setting that *should* save everybody! Even those people!

Fuck the soul-eating Federation. It's dignity and respect for ALL life or it's self-righteous garbage.

#the lady general rambles #this is very much a don't like don't read situation #snw spoilers #this is one thing in an otherwise entertaining episode i got really hung up on #it's so minor in what the episode sets out to do but it's an absolute deal breaker for me #fuck the eugenics wars. trek doesn't need some cosmic balance. people can just decide *i want to live on a utopia. let's build it* #that's when trek is at its most hopeful for me: *you can do good things without a reason & the world will be better for it*

[aerodaltonimperial]

When Darby finally explains how he broke his nose and it's because he got hit by a bus and you think for a moment and wonder why you didn't have that on your list of ways he could have broken his nose with an already broken foot as it seems so obvious in hindsight. 🤣

#has he finally angered someone watching??????? #is he a cosmic joke for their entertainment????? #lmaooooo babygirl oh my god

[therainbowgorilla]

That's it! *slams hands on desk* We need a term for the fear of Cosmic Horror/Elrich Abominations/The Unknowable™ already!

So I think it's time we settled this.

"Lovecraftophobia" seems the simplest answer, as it easily evokes all three concepts at once. Thoughts? Would "Lovecraftiphobia" or "Lovecraftiaphobia" work better than that?

#This is brought to you by me watching #Gemini entertainment #Geminientertainment #for the first time #and not knowing how to describe the fear it evoked in one -phobia type word #Was gonna go with Eldriphobia or Eldrichophobia but Lovecraftophobia sounds better #Horror #Arg #augmented reality #Cosmic horror #eldrich horror #cthulhu #cthulu #cthuhlu #cthullhu #Also can we PLEASE decide on a cthulu spelling cause trying to tag this is so many #lovecraft #lovecraftian #lovecrafian #lovecraft inspired

Though PR’s leaving New Zealand...

...I naively hope that they don’t leave it all behind in terms of writing and voice talent, especially with remote recording becoming a thing.

Heck, going by Once & Always, Barnes and Dale would make for a great head writer duo.
