I just spent the afternoon getting high and writing porn. Well, okay then!
You know, I've saved lives. Dozens. Maybe hundreds. I reattached a girl's leg. Her whole leg. She named her hamster after me. I got a hamster. He drops a box of money, he gets a town.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
While we're on the topic of freaky clothing: ick. Then again, I already dislike flipflops and am not a fan of fur.
That's just gotta tickle, and in the end? Not warm enough.

Then the silver jumpsuit.
Um. This one might take a while. I have a policy regarding shiny clothes based on the fact that they NEVER flatter on the red carpet. Plus, the jumpsuit is going to have to wait until I walk off a bit more of this enormous ass-o-mine. But, when the time is right, baybee, I'm totally there in a very Space 1999 way, if you know what I mean.

I loved those crazy Moonbase Alpha clothes. Better than most of the trek stuff, for sure.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
I'm kinda amused by the discussion of imagined future fashions, since G's current Netflix disk is U.F.O. which is very much in that style...purple wigs and all.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
U.F.O. paid a lot of attention to fashion in the future. some of it pretty decent, some not so much.

Any chance that second locale is a gay bar?

Fox, CBS refuse condomless pig ad: [link]
In a written response to Trojan, though, Fox said that it had rejected the spot because, “Contraceptive advertising must stress health-related uses rather than the prevention of pregnancy.”

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

On a related note, I know someone who does consumer research for Church & Dwight (the parent company), and he had a hilarious story about doing a focus group for players -- men who "date" several times a week.
