Did I time travel to 1939 Germany and not realize I understand German?

Why is the stock market a meme?

They must have had a industrial replicator we never saw.

Probably rolling in his grave.

Directly: no. By association: yes.

Malinda Clark was on a episode of Firefly, which did have cannibals.

Personally I’d compare it to The O.C. (there are a lot of Trek connections).

I think using a real ship with experimental tech for the drill was certainly a response to how cadets should be trained in the time of post-Burn. However the Miyazaki was a contemporary ship; why did the comic book depict TOS era uniforms? Or did I miss a detail there?

That opening scene will be talked about a lot. But damn, that was a bleak episode.

Also, will IDW be publishing a one-shot or graphic novel of that comic?

I misread the text. I didn’t realize it was listing Mirror Cochran.

I was aware of the other roles but I guess “Birthright Part I + II” got glossed over by me when I read a list of his credits.

And the appearance in “Broken Bow” isn’t archive footage. I’m pretty sure that was filmed for the episode.

It doesn’t matter. Nothing really changed as far as I’m aware. Last year the Rio screened movies each night right outside Masquerade Bar.

EDIT: It seems only the convention itself can no longer use Star Trek for its name.

EDIT 2: The resort also serves themed drinks throughout the different bars during the convention. Unrelated, I’m hoping there is another party at the rooftop club.

STLV: Trek to Vegas

Formerly known as Star Trek Las Vegas. Creation Entertainment (the organizers who started Trek conventions) lost the license to use the name a few years ago so they go by the initials now.

EDIT: It’s the big convention Creation host, at least for Star Trek. I’ve gone the past two years (my first was 2024).

 

I am so excited!

Babysitting my mom’s three cats. She left a box of Churu. They like them a lot. I was surprised. I thought it was just a few rare internet videos I have watched. Cats really like this.
