One thing that seems to cut across all cultures is straightsplaining.

And unlike the game, AI brings no pleasure.

Spoiler Free #StarfleetAcademy Reaction.

I enjoyed it. It had action but it didn’t forget the emotional heart of the show. If this had been the season finale and not the first in a two parter, I would have been pissed.

RIP Mr. Duck.

An owl or a hawk got him. Went outside this morning to discover his body.

I had him for a year and half.

If things keep on going like this, by the end of decade, I will using only a typewriter as well as pen & paper and communicating by carrier pigeon. Or least I will go back to using a β€œdumb phone” if not a landline.

You’re trapped in the last tv show you watched, where are you?

Stargate SG-1

It was the two-parter in which the SG-1 team go to Sokar’s hellish moon of Ne’tu to rescue Sam’s dad. So I’m literally trapped in hell. That’s pretty accurate.

Sorry there is only one Tillyverse and she is played by a real human.

I started using Libib to keep track of what Trek books I already have. Otherwise I would probably end up with three copies of everything.

It’s always a most pleasant surprise here in Alabama when I meet old white people who turn out to be very progressive and hate Trump, MAGA, and all that shit. They tend to use a lot of colorful metaphors.

It seems extremely unlikely that Paramount would ever do that.

It’s fortunate that these boys are unlikely to procreate, though they probably refer to themselves as β€œhigh-value men.”

I guess you could say I’m religious.

I encourage my students to send me a draft of their final essay for feedback. Two students have sent me drafts. Both drafts are AI generated.

Kirk tells Gillian Taylor in reference to Spock, β€œI think he did a little too much LDS.”

Good news: The Borg will no longer attempt to go back in time and assimilate humanity. They have deemed us unworthy of assimilation.

After a long day driving to and back from Atlanta, it is midnight, and I’m eating baby bok choy, which is the most delicious vegetable in the known universe.

I’d rather that no new Trek ever be made as a series or a movie or published in novel or comic form than for Ellison to ever reshape Trek into the image of MAGA.

Definitely, and he thought of Quark the entire time.

It seems like I’ve told most of my life that they are about to have nuclear capabilities. I’m in my mid-40s.

Something no one has ever said or thought about me. But yet Tilly is one of my favorite Trek characters.
