Historical note: This shared smile is the moment I fell in love with #StarTrek when I was a kid. This wasn't just an away mission with a leader and crew member - the Enterprise crew genuinely liked each other. Eleven-year-old me wanted to be a part of that. #AllStarTrek #TomorrowIsYesterday
I see someone else has managed to tear her uniform.

After the Wild West Show pays for the new cathedral, TJ and Tuck aren't going to have much money for that ranch in Wyoming. #Svengoolie #BadBusinessModel

I have to do something very similar to this when I have to clip my cats claws.

Wow, back-to-back sayings. "I don't buy fabric. It follows me home."

OMG, I have a new catchphrase. "Who do you think you are, civilization?"

Here the cast reenacts me catching the cat to get her to the V-E-T.

Tuck is riding one amazing horse. You only see those in movies shot in Mexico and Spain. #Svengoolie #AyCarrumba

Arriving late to the show. Greetings, #Svengoolie friends!

The only thing I know about this movie is the score was written by Jerome Moross, who wrote the iconic score for The Big Country, and who should've won the Oscar except it was up against the steamroller of Ben-Hur.

Watching that magical episode of the original Hawaiʻi Five-O, filmed 9 years before I moved there, where they mention the first place I worked (Hata Photo) and have a scene in front of a store (Fabric Hawaiʻi) where I spent many a long hour as my mother rummaged through the sale section.

Post a gif of a film where the one-liners just keep coming and coming among your friends and co-workers.

Millennials can't drive manual transmissions, but a space cowboy from the future understands the principles. Man, the Starfleet Academy curriculum is amazingly thorough.

Something is odd with my #Svengoolie feed. No matter how many times I restart Bluesky, the latest posts are more than an hour old. Oh, well. I guess this wasn't meant to be tonight.

To be honest, I would've answered the Svengali item, wrong, too.

As far as beloved holiday classics go, only one book contains taquitos as a driving force. Choose wisely. In your face, Dickens.

On all ebook platforms for an entire buck.

I am bereft - my MeTV channel is showing a sporting event. #Svengoolie will start, in progress, whenever this ends. My Saturday night has lost its meaning. #Waaahhhhhh
