Are you weird, or do you also shout “The shield is down! Commence attack on the Death Star’s main reactor!” when your neighbor finally moves the car they parked in front of your house that blocks your spot for bringing out the trash cans? 🤷🏻♂️

Not surprised at all. The Constellation-class was supposed to be afforable and have 85% commonality with the EU's FREMM frigate.
Now?
Less than 20% commonality, $1.5B overbudget, and the first ship is still years away.

I've always had a soft spot for kitbash ships. The Cheyenne-class and New Orleans-class from BOBW in TNG remain my favs. We barely see their broken hulls at Wolf 359, but I love that there was still care and effort put into the models before they were "wrecked" for filming the scene.

It is criminal that we don't have backstory on the funky D-wing starfighter yet. It is so fucking odd and I love it.

Kinda torn on the current Star Wars comic series at Marvel. On one hand, the place in the timeline (early NR-era), the involvement of the Nagai, the Fenril Consortium, and an attempt to mix legacy and new characters has been really great.
OTOH, the pace of the story feels rushed. Great art though.

meanwhile, over at Fox News, the biggest news stories are getting front page coverage. Including the only scandal on the nation's mind (checks notes)... the, umm, "Shorts Scandal"

I've got my nitpicks for sure (too few window stickers, the lack of the phaser strip on the underside of the saucer section, no yellow RCS thrusters, etc), but I still think she is a beauty. 🖖🏼❤️

We all treated 2020 like it was an Endor moment on Twitter.
Here's to hoping that tonight is the first sign that 2026 and 2028 will feel like this on Bluesky 👇🏼🗳️🌊🗽

TIL that in the Director's Cut of TMP, they added the Federation Council building we see in STIV to its correct location at the front of the Bay.

looking at old Sternbach blueprints of the ENT-D online, I forget how fucking huge her main hangar bay is. In general, the Galaxy-class is one spacious SOB

oh man, someone on the boards was chatting about the old TOPPS Star Wars vehicles trading cards from the late 90's, so naturally I went down the rabbit hole to find pics of them.
I had the whole set when I was a teen. Not sure why I didn't keep them, but these are some of my favs. 🤓
