I just want to hear Tuvok and Sulu discuss horticulture. The one thing they have in common.

This headline alone will satisfy a certain segment of fans.

Imagine having a conversation for an hour about passing around the candle (yes people made and brought candles), surprising McFadden with a stage performance in homage to “Sub Rosa”, that dovetailed into getting a inflatable candle costume and wether a hypothetical person with a collection of eyes counts as people watching the whole thing.

This post is brought to you by the alcohol at Masquerade Bar.

Of course people on our instance use Voyager (me included).

So is this part of Alpha canon?

🤷‍♂️ At the rate seasons have been getting produced with Kate, and formerly Glenn and Rob doing other shows since 2021, you have two years to catch up. Seasons have been two years apart as of season 15.

I saw multiple instances this year of teens wearing those inflatable arm cuffs for swimming that you give little kids.

The TV show CSI would say otherwise about that.

Yep. The only reason I did it was because I got dragged to a outlet mall by my mother who begged me to want something and she forced me to pick shoes.

This wasn’t even a Presidential Address broadcast live, right? That alone should tell you what this whole thing means to them.

And they probably justify those attempts by twisting the narrative to claim they aren’t really “conservative”.

There is a big difference between. Most people who aren’t actively engaged in this type of discourse like you and I, or don’t pay meticulous attention to conservative media outlets, likely don’t know who Kirk is, let alone care.

MLK Jr. got historically important exposure on television with the broadcast of the March on Washington, D.C. This was one of the first civil rights events to be televised. When you have a new medium to disseminate news that for the first time gives you not just the voice but the image of the people involved, I think that has a huge impact. Prior to this, MLK Jr. was a highly respected religious leader.

Most people today, would probably have to seek out non-governmental sides of political discourse, to even know who Kirk is. I have no doubt your average conservative that watches Fox News has been exposed to Kirk, but they likely won’t recall any talking points. He wasn’t in an elected office. Today, that would probably be the only reason any lay person would listen to them.

I don’t know if all their songs are parodies, but a majority of these songs are. They are fun to watch. When they are on stage, they sometimes play other covers including “I’m Ready”.

 

The above photos are for reference. These are the image and recipe from The Star Trek Cookbook by Chelsea Monroe-Cassel. My soup was pretty messy. The immersion blender I meant to use was missing, so I resorted to a regular blender. 😅 Not going to do this again without one. The bread isn’t as green as I expected because I didn’t twist it enough. It seemed to me the filling of pesto was too much, making the dough too fragile. At least I tried.

If you are unable to read the text, I’m sure you are wondering who the Norellian are. They come from the DS9 novel “The Big Game”.

So if you aren’t aware from my previous post, I was at STLV last week. Among the various things to do, there were artist doing free face painting and airbrush temporary tattoos. I decided on a temp tat and among them was this image of Tendi from “Strange Energies”.

I liked this so much that I am seriously considering getting a real permanent tattoo of this. On top of that I am thinking about getting it colored.

 

At STLV today, Frank Aurelio Yokoyama, the mayor of Cerritos, California was in attendance. He gave Dawn Lewis a proclamation for playing Captain Freeman.

This made me cry and I’m still in tears.

EHK: Emergency Harry Kim

When you need to disappoint an Ensign badly.

EDIT: This Hologram had to reinitialized their startup sequence. My badge was misaligned and pip on the wrong side. A kind season two Geordi saw and fixed that.

EDIT 2: Excuse me, can I get someone to fix my caffeine intake subroutine please? I am still not awake. It’s EHK, not EKM.

UPDATE: I was told to go talk to Garrett Wang. I went to his both and introduced my costume. He loved it. He asked for a photo and a video of me explaining it.
