Feb. 23rd, 2021 10:23 pm- I've been rewatching SGA because the kids haven't seen it and whatnot. Jason Momoa is so pretty.
- Related to SGA, I was thinking about an Stargate/Stranger Things crossover (because obvsly Dustin grew up to be a scientist and the Upside Down was just an accidental wormhole to another dimension, so when someone dials up a gate that leads to the Upside Down, Dustin gets called in) and was thinking about El as a grown up and she'd be an awesome teacher for special needs kids. She understands what it's like to be different and learn different, and she's telepathic so could understand/relate to them.
- Watched The Good Liar this weekend. Ian McKellen is old. Like, idk if it was just really good acting or what, but it made me a bit sad. Also, his character reminded me of my dad (not the end part, because NO, my dad is not like that at all). We call my dad a bullshitter instead of a con man, but really. He charms women and it's ridiculous. He's currently got three girlfriends who do stuff for him and take him places and spend money on him. And obviously we're poor white trash, so there was not multimillion dollar scams, but he legit has multiple friends who will pay him to come hang out and get drunk. And his name is Roy.
Some links:
Scientists clone first US endangered species - Elizabeth Ann is the first cloned black-footed ferret and first-ever cloned U.S. endangered species

Massachusetts elected a state dinosaur
Medieval Pilgrims Apparently Tried to Ward Off the Plague With Bawdy Badges - Metal phalluses and vulvas were thought to protect against disease.
Neglecting Yourself Doesn't Make You a Better Mom
The Faith of Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez
Tumblr post about changes in fandom - esp a shift in how fans communicate with one another and how that has affected fandom
And two SGA fic recs that I'm sure everyone has already read:
His Way Through the Constellation by torakowalski
Stargate Atlantis || Rodney McKay/John Sheppard || 8368
They find him by chance. They've looked and looked for the past six months and found nothing, no clue. Then Katie Brown and a couple of the new Marines go off-world to investigate some alien flora, get distracted by a market and find him there; not for sale, as Rodney immediately assumes on hearing, but working the stalls, healthy and whole and free as you like.
Running on Empty by Sholio
Stargate Atlantis || Rodney McKay & John Sheppard || 88k
Captured, implanted with Wraith trackers, released to run and die ... such is Sheppard and McKay's fate. Now all they have to do is find each other before the Wraith find them.
