They have said it was so there was a greater element of competition between Offred and Serena Joy, and so that Serena…

I feel like this is Zack Snyder...

I like that Serena Joy and The Commander are younger. They’re not infertile because of their age, but because of environmental poisoning.

Even if I were lactose intolerant, they would need to pry my cream cheese from my cold dead hands.

When the Mattachine society began marching for gay rights in the 50s, there were 14 of them- and millions of people read about them in their newspaper that week.

Have you read any Octavia Butler?? She’s my other favorite feminist sci fi writer.

One of the most brilliant bits of the GotG movies are the soundtracks. Not only are all the songs great and work well to enhance the scenes, they wrote a specific storyline to underpin how valuable that music was to Peter—the last bit of his mother and her love for him that he could still hear, over and over.

Roy Cohn, a gay man who hated gays sooooo much he engineered government commissions to ruin their lives for being “unAmerican”, in many cases simply because they were gay. No red ties, simply gay. “Subversive elements” was far and ride known as code meaning gay.

octopus/ribbon alien, you say?
