If your in UK or Europe and don't want to use the big a bc they suck with preorders, I've been using Blackwells (I order from Germany) for a few years now and they have the book listed.

My dream dress cost 800eur bc it's a historical dress made to measure. And I would look a lot more fabulous.

Even if I weren't an mtg person, I would pre-order. I trust your books and your writing a lot so I just order whatever you publish bc the chances a so high that I love it. (just waiting for it to arrive in the listing of my usually pre order shop)

Ich komme mit der Winterzeit besser klar als mit der Sommerzeit. Die haut mich jedesmal raus. Winterzeit nicht.

Female Star Trek fans basically invented the modern idea of fan fiction. Star Trek has always had a large female fanbase and saying that it hasn’t is incredibly ahistorical.

Women in the sixties literally invented slashfic, about Kirk/Spock.

I think Diane Duane might also like a word.

"After a failed pilot, Lucille Ball not only advocated for a second pilot but circumvented the board of her production company, putting up her own money to ensure that the show had another chance."

That's a bs article

Stuff like that text makes me so angry bc it blatantly ignores fandom history and tries to bury out fandom foremothers whom we wouldn't have any fandom culture without. Without star trek nothing would be there.

So I'm pretty sure that we feel a tos, public speakers of whom we expect authentic emotions are the ones expressing the micro expressions of the corresponding emotion. 4/4

I've had training in the, bc one of my special interests is body language and stuff like that.
After the class I had a success rate of identifying them correctly of 98%.
soon after that I realised watching a movie/TV series; 5he best actors are those who have the micro expressions when acting. 3/x

And humans usually react to them and if you are trained you actually can see them.
(they are so fast it's super hard to see them, they last a fraction of a second).
They were first found by a scientist called Paul Ekman, he also consulted on the Pixar movies. It's in the bts. 2/x

Funfact (you probably know this): humans have facial micro expressions that are the same everywhere in the world, there are (if I remember correctly) 6 of them: happiness, sadness, anger, fear, disgust, and surprise. (the emotions in inside-out
Pixar movie are based on this). 1/x
