Laura | 37 | She/Her | I love sci-fi, especially Star Trek and Doctor Who, but my one and only love will always be Rimmer from Red Dwarf, and I will not apologise.

Edited version of Persephone, chapter 12 is now up! I'm not messing with it anymore guys, it'll drive me mad otherwise.

I'm not sure why the link is only showing up as text and not reformatting itself in the usual way. I'm hoping it's a website/app issue and not something I'm doing wrong.

PS, I might have gone slightly overboard with this one. I said it in the notes but even I want to find Ace and beat him senseless.

Hunchback of Notre Dame goes so hard because Disney basically made the cathedral one of the characters and gave her all the respect the grand old lady was due.

I mean, I am not a religious person, but standing inside Notre Dame is the closest I've ever gotten to believing in God.

My current favourite thing is going to bed and lying there imagining the documentary Netflix would make about me if my favourite fantasy ever came true.

if you have ocs it is so so so important that you have Barbie Time™ (drawing them over and over wearing all sorts of different outfits)

I might learn to draw just so I can put my OC in all her outfits.

I'm having a bit of an exhausting week and I really want to chat to the Red Dwarf fandom - hello everybody!!! Please tell me your favourite season of RD and why! You can be as descriptive as you wish (or you can just be like "idk I just like it" if that's true as well.) ^-^

I'll go first - my favourite is Season 5 because it just feels like the stakes of each episode are so much higher and it's super exciting! It's also lovely to see the sci fi concepts being expanded upon, I love Holly's design for this season (the way Hattie's screen has been edited makes her look a lot more ethereal imo), and I just adore seeing how close the crew became as a group. It's super lovely to me! A close contender would also be Season 4 because it's just straight up banger after banger imo, some of my absolute favourite episodes came from that season. :D

But yes, please tell me your opinions, there are no wrong answers here! 🫂🩷

Series V is also my favourite which is hardly a controversial opinion but that's because it's just that great. The tone, writing and performances are just excellent all round. Also it's sexy in a dark way.

Series 2 is a close second though despite being so different tonally. It's poignant and builds beautifully upon Series 1 to really establish these characters in our hearts.

Let's be honest, we all know why season 5 is my favourite and I'm not even going to defend myself at this point.

Once you start thinking about humans as a species in a biome, it affects your entire way of looking at normal things.

The other day I referred to female morning joggers as an 'indicator species' in that if you see women jogging in the dark it means that the environment provides migration pathways (sidewalks, clear signs) and doesn't have any known predators of female morning joggers (guy with knife, bear, BigTruck, male morning joggers).

Though, I think that people consider framing humans as animals reacting to their environment as rude.

I would absolutely without question watch a David Attenborough documentary talking about humans and their behaviour the same way he explains animal behaviour.

"that character would NEVER-" yeah that's why i'm writing it!!!!

YES! If I wanted canon I'd be watching the show!

Somebody needs to tell men to stop wearing shirts with their sleeves rolled up and their top button undone because for fucks sake how am I meant to cope with these conditions?
