Picard spoiler alert: Geordi spent all his free time building a galaxy class starship in his garage. I think they glossed over that little factoid a little too briefly. my neighbour can't even install a fucking concrete slab in the space of a year, how the fuck did Geordi build a starship.

1/ ProPublica collected handwritten letters in mid-January from children held at the Dilley Immigration Processing Center, the same facility where 5-year-old Liam Conejo Ramos was taken.

Hundreds of kids are still detained.

We’ll let the children’s words speak for themselves. 🧵

There was a #StarTrekProdigy Art Book in the works. I was going to co-write it.

It went into limbo when it was removed from Paramount+ with uncertainty if Season Two would find a home. Then more uncertainty when Paramount was merging with Skydance.

If you want it — Trek fans should rally for it!
That said, if they don't release a #StarTrekProdigy art book it will be a literal crime.

When Bjo & John Trimble produced a science-fiction film convention in Los Angeles, Mayor Yorty proclaimed it “Science Fiction and Fantasy Film Week” in the city. Here I am with John, Nichelle Nichols, and, in costume, Janos Prohaska, whose Star Trek roles included the Horta and the Mugato.

I've been to some countries where people live under military rule or autocracy. And without fail, one of the questions I get when they ask about life in the U.S. is whether it's true that Americans just let homeless people die on the street.
During freezing temperatures in Port Arthur, Texas, a 61-year-old homeless man was found dead in his wheelchair outside a convenience store.

He was wearing a hospital gown and no shoes. Authorities say he had been released from a hospital the previous day.

This is a diseased society.

I can imagine that the Bajorans turned DS9 into a holy relic and national monuement.

Much like how Babylon 4 was treated as a holy place after the First Shadow War.

One way concentration camps become zones where law doesn't apply is by neglecting policies & standards that would protect health & provide healthcare. You deny laws & norms & dehumanize your victim.

The fact that they haven't immediately set up some big arc with galaxy-ending stakes is one of the things I appreciate most about SFA.
I've gotten heavy TNG-era vibes watching #StarTrek Starfleet Academy, but couldn't quite articulate why. I shared my thoughts with Tawny Newsome, and she helped explain it in the best way:

You know that song, show, book, or whatever piece of media you liked as a teen. Yeah, it’s political.

Always was. Always will be.

Just ‘cause you refuse to see it doesn't mean it’s not there. YMMV, some are just American Idiots.

Did they not listen to the… you know music like the rest of us? It’s like all over it.
This week a whole bunch of Gen X and Gen Z magas belatedly discovered that Rage Against The Machine, Tommy Lee and Green Day are anti-establishment and pretty hardcore anti-fascist, which would have been perfectly obvious the whole time had they taken two seconds to think about it lol.
