How can a hot lesbian sailor named Citlalic Snell not be a fictional character? Yet here she is, as part of the first lesbian couple to take part in a Navy tradition;

I feel kind of sorry to-day for agreeing that 2001: A Space Odyssey is cold. I watched it again last night for the first time in several years. I guess we don't see any hugging and ( Read more... )

I know, right, how can someone who exhibits all those traits be an actual human being rather than a fictional construct designed specifically to titillate your libido. Motherfucking miracles, that's how.

Though I have to say it strikes me as a bit convenient that the ones who "won the raffle" for a significant photo-op event like this just happened to be such a highly photogenic (for photo ops!) lesbian couple (and therefore less threatening to the homophobic mens, and isn't that what's important, in the end? Which I suppose it is as long as they're still the ones with more guns. Oh, but the times, they are a changin'...) What I''m trying to say is, I suspect they decided beforehand who was going to win the raffle. It's kind of a significant piece of propaganda they're putting up there, and I doubt they'd leave the subject completely up to chance.

Not that I think that it's necessarily a bad sort of propaganda. I think it's nice and necessary and well ( ... )

Relax.

I guess I was busy seeing it as a good day for lesbians manifesting in a way I happened to find appealing.

Also, she does have a weird kinda cool name.

Yeah. The sort one is inclined to expect belongs to a fictional character.

I'm relaxed. Well, as relaxed as I can be while being kinda hyped up for reasons that don't have to do with me being mad at you cause I'm not. I'm agreeing with you on the last bit, even. Believe me, I have no objection to your enjoyment at observing the majestic lesbian in her natural habitat. I liked seeing the clip too, it's a good thing for people to have acknowledged publicly. Just expressing my ongoing cynicism about popular media, propaganda, appearances and the sale of image as a distorting lens through which we become accustomed to viewing and judging other human beings against, in a way that when I look back at it was actually kinda punchy and abrasive towards you, wasn't it. Unintended, sorry bout that.

Oh yeah, just realized, the "motherfucking miracles" comment was in reference to a fandom-specific meme that would have sounded more easy-going if you have the context for it. Whoops.
