Okay, Trek nerds, post a picture from your first #StarTrek movie.
I know the first Trek movie I watched in a theater but not which was the first Trek movie I ever watched. It was probably this one on VHS.

What's your unpopular star trek opinion?
David Mack’s Star Trek Destiny novel trilogy resolved the whole Borg threat to the Federation in a much more satisfactory way than season 3 of Picard.

Prodigy is not canon within the Star Trek universe. It's a holonovel created to drum up interest in Starfleet among young prodigies.

A major problem with online education is that feeds into the attitude of getting a degree just to get the right credentials rather than developing critical thinking skills and actually reading. I can’t blame my students for this attitude. They are being fleeced. Ugh.

Sometimes having 4 adults living in my in addition to me and my husband drives me crazy. Sometimes I don’t mind it. I’m kind of glad that Vietnamese is their first language and, for two of them, their only language. It means I don’t have to talk too much and can remain introverted.

Nothing like a homeschooled high school student taking a history course for college credit online and trying to evangelize you while answering a question about ancient Christianity. Oh my sweet child please broaden your horizons just a little.

Am I the only one who feels uncomfortable when they walk into a house and there is a massive crucifix in the living room?
I don’t feel that way on the rare occasion I visit a church, but in a house yikes.
