The Biddy is an Irish folk tradition linked to Brigid’s Day and Imbolc, where groups wear white and handmade straw headpieces to travel around playing music while carrying a Brídeóg (a model Brigid in child form), warding off evil and bringing luck.

Hey, #StarTrek friends! With a lot of us discussing the negativity around #StarTrekSFA, how about we inject some positivity?
Please post one screenshot/piece of art/quote/whatever from Trek that brings you joy! 🖖🏻
i aint about to hate on a show that hasn't been given a chance to prove itself.

Imagine if there was an epidemic of pubs selling alcohol to children and instead of shutting the pubs responsible the government imposed a nationwide curfew on everyone under 16.
Sitting across the Oireachtas Children's Committee on online safety for children.
Very much getting the impression that a lot of politicians are reaching for the Under-16 ban. Momentum behind that rather than a deeper understanding of platforms, algorithms and any alternative view.

What's the best thing your therapist ever said to you?
For me, I was trying to understand why someone acted the way they did toward me and she said "Why are you taking a spreadsheet to a drama performance?"

Aside: Some hardcore Trek fans don’t seem to like the new Starfleet Academy show, but honestly I think a Star Trek that is bros helping bros make their beds properly, and learning to use empathy to disarm their enemies, in a YA format, is exactly what we need right now from that franchise.

Feeling spicy today so might start dropping truths into zoom calls to people who deserve them. Professionally, of course.

Reading a thread with Technology Connections here where people are defending hustle culture & the gig economy while barely making ends meet themselves feels grim. If you ever doubt the grip that big tech has on society watch people defend the mechanisms that are designed to keep them down.

I got a warning on TikTok for bullying and harassment because I asked someone if Donald Trump was their favourite paedophile 🤣

I have a strange job. I help hundreds of people in my company every day and they never even know it. When I do my job well people don't even know I exist & when things go wrong I fix them. I got a heartfelt thank you today. Haven't heard that in a long time. Say thank you to someone who helps you.

The Trump disbelief that the Norwegian govt doesn't control the Nobel process is deeply indicative of his thinking. He can't conceive that an institution could (or should) be genuinely independent of coercion or political power. That's the change he represents.
Trump: "I should have gotten the Nobel prize for each war...I saved millions and millions of people...and don't let anyone tell you that Norway doesn't control the shots. It's in Norway. Norway controls the shots. It's a joke. They've lost such prestige.“

So… does the Athena have four pairs of warp nacelles or are they just one pair of very fancy warp nacelles? 🤔 #StarTrek #StarfleetAcademy
