When I was in college, getting my anthropology degree, I had to take a summer course (a prerequisite for archaeology field school). While I was on campus I decided to take a physics course to knock out a science credit. It was 'The Science in Science Fiction' and it was an awesome course. We watched '2001: A Space Odyssey' and several episode of the Star Trek franchise. I was really into Star Trek Voyager at the time (introduced by a bf... my love of Voyager outlasted the bf). I decided to write my final paper on how Star Trek gets evolutionary theory wrong when it suits the story and I used 'Threshold' as my 'big argument' in the paper. And I got an A+. I had a 5.0 gpa that semester and made the Dean's List.
Teared up a bit tonight as I signed out of the classroom computer for the final time. This was an unparalleled experience, such an amazing journey to take with the students over the past few months. Learned so much along the way. They were such a great group of students! And their final films that we gathered today to screen together were SOO amazing!! And I laughed SOO much!! We also screened the short film I edited together from the segments they shot earlier in the semester on a workshop focusing on mise-en-scene and visual storytelling, The Color of Apples was a wonderful nod to the class and creative collaboration that drive so much of it. #UCCS #AsianCinema #GuestLecturer #SemestersEnd https://www.instagram.com/p/CdetEqGMWhh/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
i have the weirdest relationship with christianity of any queer person i know, i was raised in a super liberal gay church with brown jesus with a lesbian youth minister that was racially diverse with a lot of disabled people and we did a lot of legit charity work within our community and had a lot of cooperation with the jewish and muslim communities here but then when i did confirmation at age 13 and did a ton of deep bible study i was like... hmm... i think maybe this doesn't make a lot of sense i think maybe evolution is what actually happened and i became an atheist. and no one in my church shamed me or anything. and then i found out that most christianity is. not like that. and thus i became completely unrelatable to most queers with legit religious trauma especially my husband who was raised southern baptist in rural kentucky. so it's weird having like fond nostalgia for church. anyways happy easter
Sirius gets why, he wasn’t the best kid by all means. He yelled back, he lied, he didn’t do his homework, he was a rebel. So truly he gets it when he gets pulled out of school by a bunch of cops, and he understands why when they tell him he’s not going to live at his own home anymore. Of course his parents would send him away, it makes sense, he truly honestly gets why.
In which Sirius gets taken into foster care and blames himself, and Remus makes him fall in love.
Ahhhh it’s coming guys. Keep me motivated 😭🙏🏻
This is definitely no where near done but it’s a huge milestone to get to this point! Let me know if you guys are even interested in this😂
It’s gonna be over double at the end point (I’m aiming for like 100 ish pages)
“Their chemistry is extraordinary in it, the playfulness & heartbreak of it & fights & silliness. It's a thrilling performance from both of them, & together as well, because it's a marriage & a portrait of what it means to try & create a family.”
I don't normally feel any kind of concern about what my Puritan ancestors might think about my life (if they dare to pass judgment on me); but sometimes I wonder if they would be disappointed that I don't have a Geneva Bible. I have multiple Bible translations, but the "classic" one is the (gasp) King James Version. They would really specifically disapprove of the KJV Bible and probably blame this on all the popish influence in my life.
