you guys remember those READ posters from the 90s by the American Library Association?
NO I do not
okay HUGE thanks to op for this because when i say i spent my childhood looking for the deep space nine version of this poster i mean it. i’m convinced there MUST have been but came up dry.
i did find these online thanks to @trekcore for those of you of a generation who missed out on these excellent posters being all over your school library
i had the voyager one on my wall and tried to read through all the books to gain extra bonus insight on the characters (grey’s anatomy is not a beach read y'all; still can’t say why neelix is holding virginia woolf to the lighthouse rather than a cookbook; for a decade my mother thought that this poster indirectly made me bipolar because i was so obsessed with b'elanna that i read the bell jar and became mentally ill by the power of imitation).
I had to mentally send myself a reaction image the other day. I ran up the stairs on all fours, said to myself “i’m such a locationpilled scampercel” and then perfectly envisioned this image
Men need to STFU with the false equivalency, “Can I take my dick out in public and wave it around? No. So cover your boobs and feed that baby at home.”
The valid comparison is, “Can I take off my shirt and show my nipples in public? Yes. Carry on, then, that kid sounds hungry.”
“YOU FEED YOUR BABY SEMEN?!” as loudly as possible in public if this comparison ever comes up.
