That sounds fun! Tbh I love explaining these newer terms to older fans of the same show because usually they’re so “dumbfounded” but happy to be educated lmao.
I’ll do a lazy translate and post it in the comments later maybe
No, shipping isn’t something everyone knows is, especially if they’re older, hence the reason I made the PowerPoint
Good Luck Charlie, Lab Rats, My Little Pony.
*somebody mentioned Duck Tales (80s version)… gah now I can’t choose what to replace.
right now a shower
Depends on where you are. It is an idea that originated from patriarchal structures and is today enforced by both men and women. Patriarchy fucks us all, let’s dismantle it.
One of the few bands that have stuck with me for years, I give you Foreign Air. I recommend their album Hello Sunshine, most of them are bangers. My favourite songs include Your Touch and Hello Sunshine Pt 2.
Hm, I prefer the old settings layout. Does this affect Graphene users as well? Ugh.
What episode?
Mind posting a guide on how you tinker with those inspect element tools?
The Shawshank Redemption.
I mean, how can you do your interpretation of a fictional movie?
old enough to remember musically but not vine

he ate that
why the downvotes im on the presidents side
He looks like an epic 90s cartoon character lol love it
They support separate windows if that changes things.
Okay I’m too lazy to draw on the pictures so I’ll translate each slide in text form. I can’t believe my life has come to this lmao.
SLIDE 1: How Star Trek kickstarted the fandom culture online.
SLIDE 2: Common terms within fandom cultures. A picture of a Trekkie shown as a single individual, arrow pointing right to a Star Trek convention captioned with “part of the Star Trek fandom (collective).”
SLIDE 3: Common terms within fandom cultures, continued. Shipping: the act of shipping (characters) romantically. Occurs within practically all fandoms. Pictures of common ships (Sherlock/Watson, Eve/Villanelle, Aziraphale/Crowley, Piper/Alex). Canon vs fanon (true vs fan-made).
SLIDE 4: The famous slash phenomenon. It all begin with Star Trek: The Original Series as fans adored the dynamic between Spock and Kirk (+McCoy), leading to them creating fanart as shown in the slide. Known as Kirk “slash” Spock when tagging fanfictions depicting them in a romantic light, thus coining the term slash for homosexual male relationships.
SLIDE 5: Femslash, starting to take off more since the 90s. The lesbian counterpart to slash, not as popular however. Focus on shows with already existing queer women (like OITNB) or possibility of lesbian shipping (like The 100). Most representation comes from animated adult shows (Harley Quinn/Poison Ivy, Vi/Caitlyn, Adora/Catra, AJ/RD from MLP (not adult but it’s nostalgic to me)).
SLIDE 6: So what was fanfiction again…
SLIDE 7: The wonder that is AO3. A nonprofit organisation whose goal is to preserve fan works, most commonly written fanfiction.
SLIDE 8: Here I present the most popular slash ships in Star Trek. The fanfictions counted only apply to those posted on AO3, there are more sites like fanfiction dot net and Wattpad which have more.
SLIDE 9: The popular femslash ships in Star Trek. Same principle.
I finished the PowerPoint with my personal favourite ship (hint: DS9). I lazily translated all of this and I spoke more once I presented it verbally so if anybody has any questions I’ll be happy to answer lol. I stayed up until 3AM to make this and I didn’t take it very seriously but it was fun! And my dad liked it. Not shipping tho.
