Hi team #StarTrek, please give a read or a share, and thank you 🙏🏼
This is an all white box with only words in it, a break from tradish today. It reads, “Idealistic “Start Trek Future we want to see” post today but not specifically a screenshot. Putting out an ask because you all are an awesome community of smart and caring people. I do some work with an incredible nonprofit that serves the unhoused and those in deep poverty in the Twin Cities, MN. State and federal funding has changed a lot this past year and we’re expecting even more loss in these areas. We’re in a campaign to raise funds to maintain hours, continue to serve, and be a resource and source of love and dignity for those our society tends to look away from. My ask is to consider giving $3.00, or $5.00, or more if you are fortunate to have it, to help those living on the edge of survival. We are many and can make a difference, thank you all for any generosity you can lend. Ad Aspera, Per Astra! To give, go to ListeningHouse.org and hit the donate button.” Included also is a picture of the single most important man in Starfleet History, Chief Miles, Edward, O’Brien, who was a famous supporter of worthy nonprofits in his time.🙏🏼

In what the kids are calling "a mood", Comet K1 ATLAS survives its closest encounter to the Sun just to fall apart a month later... 🔭🧪

Honestly kind of surprised @expanse-quotes.bsky.social hasn't been flagged by moderation yet. #TheExpanse is delightfully full of quotable violent threats.

Yeah, if you have a violent rhetoric policy that takes "it was a quote/it was a joke" as a reason to undo a moderation action, you do not have a violent rhetoric policy.

I thought the idea of a sex abuse ring at the highest levels of government was overheated and ridiculous.

I thought Captain America: The Winter Soldier having secret Nazi senators was over the top.

My life has become a single ongoing revelation that I have not been cynical enough

it was a real financial sacrifice for my parents to buy us the World Book Encyclopedia set in 1978. They paid in installments, and their investment in our future paid great dividends for me and all my siblings. A real treasure.

pickup trucks for the average person should not have been allowed to advance past this. if you need anything bigger, you should have to provide some kind of documentation showing you have the license and need for special heavy machinery, otherwise you get the 1990 toyota hilux
an extremely basic white 1990 toyota pickup truck

Errinwright appears in a recorded video message, played back on a wall monitor aboard the Guanshiyin. He's seated at his desk, with flags and the UN logo visible behind him. His expression is serious.

This one time on Twitter, @lecagle.bsky.social asked ppl to link to 1 pub of theirs they loved, but maybe slipped under the radar. I got SO many good recs from that list, so I wanted to replicate it here: link to one of your pubs that you wish more people read/cited!

What I would give for the final trilogy of The Expanse to be adapted with this kind of budget and vision! @abraham.bsky.social if you ever wanted to adapt that trilogy, this is the studio worthy of it!

Made a new desktop wallpaper for myself of the best character from The Expanse.

A custom desktop wallpaper of Manéo Jung-Espinoza from The Expanse on a Windows 11 PC. Its an edited screenshot of Manéo sitting in the cockpit of his ship. In the upper left corner is his "Supa Star" logo.

Flying through Dulles Airport near D.C.? If you’re taking the Metro, expect to be awed by almost 40 recently installed images from #NASAWebb, paired with more than 30 from the ever-active Hubble, on your way to the main terminal: https://bit.ly/4qPfl7m #wmata 🔭 🧪
