Your 4 year goal reminds me a lot of Cogmind’s development and the video about the journey

Best of luck

That was a great read, thanks.

Kinda surreal to read about disco without also reading about disappointment.

Wildest part is how good it sounded at the time:

“Things are at a fever pitch right now, I believe we can all agree. The devastation, the oppression, the genocide, the division around the world, I think it has reached a fever pitch, and I absolutely think that it’s causing people to lose hope in a lot of ways,” she says. “So yes, I think people are looking for something to hold onto, they’re reaching and grasping for glimmers wherever they may find them. It’s why I feel so honoured and blessed to be a storyteller, number one, and to be telling this story, because I believe it speaks to that. I believe seeing this utopian future, even with its challenges, is incredibly, incredibly hopeful and inspiring.”

I feel they already have; the Klingon bridge crew from the musical episode appeared as TNG-ridged.

Truly a subtly unretconning of the Klingon look without even addressing it.

TNG character headcanon?

Worf is a narcissist. Reason: Kurn and Alexander were kept until no longer useful to him then discarded. #Justice4Kurn

Universe headcanon?

The Vulcans are augments and the romulans are the baseline diaspora. Reason: every time TPol was unphased by the anomaly because of her [superior] Vulcan physiology.

They can be archived without being playable

You mustn’t be afraid to dream a little bigger darling.

Imagine an archive for unreadable books, unwatchable films, and unplayable games too!

the best series finales are always double-episodes

I think you’re right:

TNG: 2-parter, check

DS9: 2-parter, check

VOY: 2-parter, check

ENT: 1-shot, check

DISCO: 1-shot, check

Romulans: Don’t Tread Mintaka On me

How about Elric of Melniboné?

How many more Targaryens and Geralts must we endure before this is adapted?

Yes a surprisingly fun and satisfying adventure. It really made me wish there was a video game in The Congregation setting.

Dal discovered Adreek’s skeleton, and we learn that Aurelian skulls have spurs of bone projecting from them, presumably covered by the feathers.

Me: Aurelians have…feathers?

Some searching later…

Me: Oh Aurelian not El-Aurian

Enterprise getting a second lease on life by virtue of no longer being the worst? I’m here for it 💪

As an ENT fan, excellent choices 👌

That’s Zalbag on the right, but Dycedarg has a beard, and a frumpy robe too I think.

I think the mirror universe arc was the best.

As someone who enjoyed S1 the most, I completely agree. The closest trek yet came to “prestige” and then it slipped away :(

“The house I grew up in was built by the Dublin Corporation,” Meaney says.

“How could we build houses then and can’t build them now?.. It’s fking Thatcherism, Reaganism, the neoliberals and the trickle-down economy that Fianna Fáil and Fine Gael both bought into, [the idea] that the market will sort everything out. B***ocks.”

Our boy doesn’t hold back and I’m here for it!

Because of the extremely common parlance “drop out of warp” I want to say it implies that the ship keeps moving afterward.

When I run and carry my coffee it is “at warp” but when I stumble and drop it then it is no longer “at warp” but yet it still falls away from the point I dropped it.

But when you drop an abstract there is no implication of movement; when I drop a bad habit it just ceases to exist.

But since the ship still exists after dropping from warp, this is unlikely to be the intended meaning.

Ergo ships drop from warp and that dropping imparts momentum/inertia to ships.

Archer did nothing wrong

As an Archer fan… bwahaha. He knew it was wrong, there’s too much dialog around suspending moral codes and the like.

Eg one of my fave episodes Harbinger:

PHLOX: Captain, this man is dying a painful death. To keep him conscious is unethical.

ARCHER: Until I get the answers I need, we’re going to have to bend a few ethics.

PHLOX: Very well, I’ll do what I can.

I am mildly annoyed when an action scene essentially pauses so the heroes can have a small dialog scene.

I always find myself wondering: isn’t that bad guy, hull breach, detonation timer etc still there?
