My friends call me Kate (pronouns: She/Her), and I'm a lifelong Trekkie and Star Wars fan. I enjoy movies, TV, and comic books, and I also write fanfiction. I'd be posting more fandom stuff if the world wasn't going to heck.

Homelessness has become a tool of pressure and threat used by some wealthy people, when it shouldn’t even exist. Every person deserves a home.

The complaint I hear from people that they’re sad we learn in Starfleet Academy that Sisko didn’t ever return as he promised ruins Avery Brooks desire with having the “I will return” line to ensure that Sisko wasn’t a Black father who abandoned his kid is valid, but I think

Very curious ~when~ he was placed on leave. It’s been four months since he shot Marimar Martinez and his boss sent him a congratulatory message hours later. Guessing this was a very recent development.

Did a quick ‘n dirty (and very shaky) time lapse of one of my favorite #StarTrek mugs. (as the hot liquid goes in Natalie do they disappear from the transporter room, but they appear on a planet surface on the other side.)

Most Heated Rivalry coverage has been focused on what young people, particularly younger straight women, think. I cover aging and decided to ask older gay men about their thoughts.
I found: A founder of what may have been the first gay hockey blog, a wedding cake shaped like a Zamboni and more.

Older gay men built their own hockey fandom. Then came 'Heated Rivalry.'
The hit show is an unexpected invitation for some older gay hockey fans to reflect on love, acceptance and coming out.

how bad do you have to fuck up to allow an exploit in fucking NOTEPAD
The AI features added to Notepad created a critical exploit vulnerable to loading a compromised txt file.
The fix is part of Patch Tuesday, so update your systems.
AI is not a feature I ever desired in Notepad. I should look into some alternatives...

This is lovely and remarkable.
❤️This week on Alan Alda's podcast, talking with the guest, he said:
"...because it means an enormous amount to me what my wife thinks of me. It fills my life to the brim that she loves me & I really want to be a good partner with her."
He's 90. They've been married 70 years.
Find you someone who.

Throwback to Pam Bondi’s campaign ad for Florida AG:
“I’ll fight to put human trafficking monsters where they belong. Behind bars.”

The SAVE Act has passed the House, making it harder for 69 million American women to vote.
This isn’t about voter fraud or undocumented immigrants.
This is about suppressing the female vote.
They want to repeal the 19th and this is a step in that direction.

House passes SAVE America Act, sending Trump-backed election bill to the Senate
The legislation would overhaul federal election laws in all 50 states by imposing new voter ID and proof-of-citizenship requirements. But it faces a daunting path in the Senate.
