other people after watching alien (1979): space is terrifying…we have no idea what could be lurking out there, in the cold, unforgiving depths of the void…

types of girls as bugs

ladybug: picnics, cozy sweaters, the sound of leaves swaying in the wind, apologizing a lot, gardens full of vegetables and herbs, no makeup, the library on a quiet saturday afternoon, shy smiles

moth: staring at the moon when you should be doing something else, silver jewelry, worn out converse, doodling on homework, falling asleep to the sound of rain, always sleepy, loner, concert tshirts that evoke nostalgia

lightning bug: dramatic makeup, neon lights in the city, going to a party with your best friends, secretly insecure, sparkles, passionate kisses, wondering the city at night, a bouquet of red roses

bee: cheerful smiles, flowers in jars, early morning sunrises, rosy cheeks, messy hair, short nails, warm sunshine with a slight cool breeze, bright eyes, skipping stones on a small pond, sharing snacks with people you love

butterfly: long flowy skirts, antique stores, driving on an empty road with the windows down, looking at the clouds and trying to find shapes in them, the smell of jasmine, watching old movies, daydreaming

spider: red and black flannels, comforting smiles, black doc marten boots, drowning out the world with loud music, stick n poke tattoos, dark chocolate, smudged eyeliner, activism, falling asleep to old cartoons

something i wish was explored more in star trek is the development of language in a diverse, multicultural society like the federation, made up of so many different alien species from a wide range of planets.

like, sure, there are universal translators, but what do idioms like “get off your high horse” mean to a society without horses? what’s another alien species’ equivalent, if any, of slang and shorthand abbreviations of common words and phrases, like ‘lol’? do they have their own memes that reflect the state their society and culture?
