I have a pair of socks and pants with this on it.

Why does that look like Alexander Rozhenko but middle aged and with a drinking problem spurred by his traumatic childhood?

I think this works. I was in fact one of them, although honestly, at a certain point, they trusted me and weren't even watching all that hard.

Part of me wants to create a content fork of Memory Alpha that's independently hosted. A couple years ago, I was messing with creating an LCARS skin, but didn't get beyond a really janky proof of concept (https://gitlab.com/dexcube/lcars-mediawiki-skin); knowing more about MediaWiki skins now and wanting to redesign this for usability, I would probably rewrite this from the ground up now.

However, part of me also wants to do a wiki for the band Cheekface, since it doesn't have much in the way of online documentation and their back catalog is getting larger. Also, even relatively in-depth coverage of the band is a much smaller undertaking than managing decades of canon.

I've long wanted to make Shaxs ear rings, although I only have a red Lower Decks uniform right now because I did Boimler last year, and I've toyed with the idea of reusing it to do a Vendome this year (probably won't happen, honestly), so it'll be a while before I can rationalize getting another Starfleet uniform.

Wasn’t sure how good this would be, but that was rather fun.

I was tempted to diss the banjo ship for being too generic a space ship, but it’s just so well executed I can’t.

Now, I what I really think we need is a full orchestra arrangement of “Faith of the Heart” done in a full orchestra arrangement like a classic theme. All there is right now is the crappy MIDI where they just changed a few instruments but didn’t change the arrangement.

Second result for search terms “O’Brien must suffer meme”

I thought for a split second this was just a repost of the one with Chief O’Brien, but was pleasantly surprised.

Frankly, I lack an understanding of the disdain for "All I Want For Christmas Is You" - I have heard much more annoying Christmas songs. It may be a bit cloying and heavily pop, but I think it's well executed, at least compared to almost any Christmas song put out by a major artist in the 21st century. Also, I think My Chemical Romance pulled off a rather good cover that perhaps beats the original.

Maybe part of it is I have a 5 hour personal/family Christmas playlist that reduces the amount of repeated listens to a more manageable degree. In addition to more well-known ones and several covers, it is also filled to the brim with alternative and indie Christmas music - Jonathan Coulton especially is good at making atypical holiday songs that don't get annoying.

You’re a top tier OC maker.

[–] data1701d@startrek.website 4 points 5 months ago

I’ll look into that. Thanks.

I mean, today, we use shuttle pretty broadly, to refer to anything from buses to a space vehicle that went to the ISS.

Not everyone works in Starfleet, so civilians might have a different definition of shuttle.
