Good to see Christopher Pike branching out from horror

In Colonial New England, puritan (tries to) kills you (so you flee to Rhode Island like all the cool colonial kids did)
Star Trek fandom is older than a significant majority of people alive today
Jadzia is probably the right answer, but shout-out our canon bi4bi royalty the Troi-Rikers
Happy Labor Day, comrades š«”
Okay. I just came back to this and you arenāt calling these efforts resegregation yet, you absolutely should be
This was a rough week for the fandom, but remember. Star Trek is eternal, and its fandom is will endure as long as its ideas endure and those ideas include six decades of Spirk
Liberals getting excited about Gavin Newsome feels like a person who keeps settling for shitty boyfriends. Like girl, you can do better for yourself - stop thinking you canāt do better. There is a guy out there for you. Look, your bestie New York City found a great guy and sheās had so many bad exs.

You ever watch Emperorās New School? My daughter found it on Disney+ and itās the exact kind of absurdist comedy that hits me just right
Iām not saying Iām bi because of how Roxann Dawson shot a mostly-naked Lee Pace in the desert, but Iām saying it didnāt hurt
Now give us a real release of The Sweatbox
Rhode Island said āyou do you, itās none of our business how you feel about godā and the puritans have tried to destroy us for 389 years and counting
"I urge you to consider that you do not need to be either Vulcan or human. That is and always has been a false choice. The question isn't what you are. It's who you are." - Captain Angel to Mr. Spock Star Trek Strange New Worlds Season 1 Episode 7 The Serene Squall
The sense of powerlessness Iāve felt about this (and, yāknow, *waves hands* the rest) isā¦ infuriating. Iāve never been in a situation where I felt powerless to affect things that matter to me. Maybe I just never paid attention before š¤¦āāļø
When the sentence that describes this map is āevery state north of the Mason-Dixon Line except New Hampshire,ā thisā¦ uhā¦ doesnāt bode well for national unity
I get this feeling when I defend a suit, proffer reasonable discovery, and the plaintiff calls the request onerous. My Sibling, you brought this action, prove your bullshit.
I blocked the SNW hashtag before this season started, and Iām just now seeing That Episode came out this week and itās as bad as everyone expected. Star Trek is part of who I am, but Star Trek hurt my friends. The morals and ideal Star Trek taught me are more important than Star Trekās existence
PART 2
Received many DMs asking me about this weekās #strangenewworlds episode and why I wonāt be reviewing it with @strangenewpod.com - hereās the short (and the long?) answer šš¾ #startrek #startrekpodcast PART 1 :
Iām now immediately downvoting every HP set I see on the Lego subreddit because it gives me an instant when I feel like Iām in control of something
Except the same people have been running the world since we were teenagers
Ahhh, back to yelling about the systematic injustices baked in to the Social Security adjudication systems again...
This is the same mindset that this world is just a vale of tears. Yeah, butā¦ maybe the vale of tears doesnāt need so many tears?
Thereās a universe in which the knife I just dropped stabbed me in the foot. This isnāt that universe, so thereās at least one universe dumber than this one
Star Trek is a mirror, reflecting the world and the contemporary times back at the viewer, usually imploring the viewer to be aware, to change things for the better with empathy. Or it should be. Lately that mirror is, charitably, pretty fogged up and dusty and isn't reflecting much of anything.
Think it would work with just soy and mirin?
At least Snoopās cowardice doesnāt doesnāt let him justify shooting you
My heart breaks into 10,000 pieces once again.
There's a strain of thought that says you shouldn't criticise Star Trek for saying nothing of substance because it's not a television show that is about always saying something, which would be fine if "Star Trek is a show trying to say something and challenge people" wasn't how the show is sold
The Overton window has shifted so much that the Democrats are at āwe can crime a little against humanity, as a treatā
The middle ground is abolishing ICE and prosecuting ICE and top administration officials in a Nuremberg style process. They're putting immigrants in concentration camps and torturing them. There's no middle ground to be had. www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...
The world would be a better place if we didnāt need lawyers, but as long as it does, weāll be here trying to make things right.
"Sheryl, you must love your work!" Actually, I *hate* it. Every day I have to argue about why it's not okay to throw marginalized people on the street or in cages, and for every person I can help, there are two I can't. I don't do this because I want to. I do it because I have to.
They havenāt run a leftist since Jimmy Carter
Oh shitā¦ Golden is gonna be competing against the new Wicked songsā¦
Virginia Giuffre isnāt here to tell her story anymore, but she wrote a memoir and itās coming out in October. She deserves to be heard and remembered. #BookSky Details here: www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/712958...

Not me looking for a pattern to steal Sir Edward Cokeās look for ren faire next year
I live in CA and I am telling you, you donāt want Newsome for POTUS.
āWhat if the sword guides [Inigo] into a tree?ā I swear she hasnāt seen this movie before. Iāve educated her well in tropes.
Finishing Ren Faire day with the seven-year-oldās first viewing of The Princess Bride The moment the drinking game between Vizzini and the Man in Black started, she said āI think he poisoned both cups.ā The reasons I say sheās smarter than I amā¦
We FLEW THERE and didnāt see this. How awesome is that?!
Going to renfaire today for the first time in aaaaaaages. Donāt have a costume, but I will bring this bad boy in my pocket if I see anybody fucking around with the Temporal Prime Directive. The Bell Riots and Irish Reunification already didnāt happen as scheduled. Wh

Iām honestly glad that men painting their nails is increasingly common. Do I do it? No, because Iām certain itāll be a sensory distraction for me. But knowing that I could makes me happier.
I did my thinking through gender a few years back. While Iām content with he/him and calling myself cis, I usually boil it down to the sentence āfuck you, you donāt tell me how to be a man.ā If I wanna be soft, Iāll be soft. If I wanna cry, Iām gonna cry. If Bismarck can cry at Versailles, so can I.
Itās the southās way of thinking theyāre good because yāall are polite
Exactly. Service workers donāt owe me any more of their time than the time the company change takes. Itās like seeing another pedestrian, except with and exchange of goods.
God no, heās probably half my age
Tell me about it. I teach an undergrad legal survey course and itās getting to the point of āwell, this is how it used to workā¦ā
I canāt stress this enough. I was so frazzled I signed the receipt on the tip line.
Aside from the frothing racism of these people, what is really grim about this is the idea that government are powerless to change culture. If your constituents think these things *they are wrong* and you need to explain why. It's not actually your job as an MP to rubber stamp fascism.
Yeah, Iāll believe it when Iām in the theater.
Okay, Iāll redirect my righteous anger in a more productive direction.
What the hell do they keep doing to you, man? Did you smash a mirror while walking under a ladder? I know you canāt answer because decorum, but know that if throwing hands on your behalf would help, Iād be fight for you. Prodigy brought Trek to my daughter, and I will thank you for that forever.
If you like Star Trek games, consider picking this one up. It features all the original actors in a brand new story, set between episodes episodes 10 and 11 of #StarTrekProdigyā¦ ā¦ and itās currently 95% off on the XBox store! #StarTrek

Heās goddamn right Hoarding wealth is a mental disorder that should be treated like any other
WONāT SOMEONE THINK ABOUT THE ENSLAVERS!?

Trans rights are, in fact, human rights. Pass it on.
Exactly this. MEN CAN BE VICTIMS. Ignoring or downplaying that is one of the things that empowers manosphere grifters.
I need to know if the Australians or Dutch did it first (or, more likely, they both had the same genius idea at the same time)
Thank you, Boston Globe. This is how it's done.
These are the second best sour cream and onion chips Iāve ever had.
CONGRATULATIONS!!!! ššššš
Here's a tweet by the current DHS PR officer pushing fascist and nazi imagery. He calls for trans people to be eradicated.
Sometimes when they go low, the answer is to stomp on them
hear me out
Iāve been corrected. Sheās not an extrovert. Sheās just more extroverted than I am
God, what did I do to deserve an extroverted child?
Iām back! I saw your messages on here & elsewhereāthank you all <3. Iām deeply disappointed in @bsky.app moderation; equating pushback against people like JKR with the harm they cause to trans ppl only enables more violence. Iāll talk more soon but even a day away from social media has been healthy.
I've never seen anyone shoplifting in my entire life and I never will.
Kim Davis going from "my religious beliefs demand that I don't facilitate a same-sex marriages" to "my religious beliefs demand that there are NO same-sex marriages anywhere" *should* make Democrats realize there is no "sincere" compromise with bigots on trans issues.
So the first part of the Klingon marriage ceremony is gender neutral, isnāt it? āManā and āWomanā only show up in the exchange of vows, before that itās just āheartā and āsecond heartā Thatās cool.
Come to my AO3 for the Star Trek. Stay for the Descendants and Wicked
Richard Donner would agree with you. Either way is right
Happy birthday to @goodaaron.bsky.social ! Have a ship, in your honor!
A Dominican who doesnāt make me want to rip my hair out? First time Iāve had that feeling in a while. And I went to a Dominican college.
Iām angry that my concept of Superman is still defined by a line of his - that āClark is who I am, Superman is what I can do.ā
Iām so happy for Matt and Bowen
