Ok but Total Eclipse of the Heart in Klingon goes hard af

Naw Terrarium with Ortegas stranded with an elder Gorn at the edge of the galaxy was brilliant.

I did NOT have MUGATO SCOTTY on my bingo card lmao

They really are speedrunning how fast were gonna Bastille their asses

Yeah my immediate thought was oh we’re getting a Division 12 spinoff set up. Would be hilarious if it was like X-files but through a Lower Decks lens though. “Yeah yeah yeah temporal wars the Xindi will rule the galaxy. Go to processing C-15.”

In today’s episode of UNHOLSTER YOUR FUCKING SIDEARM.

Every character who “died” isn’t on the NCC-1701 by the time Kirk is in command in TOS episode 2. Noonien-Singh is still such a rivaled name 70 years later that Data has to be created on some remote outpost. Not to say La’an is the reason for that, but it almost certainly will be a season arc.

Jurassic Trek! I love butterfly effect time travel episodes. The Dr Who references were pretty funny too.

That said, uhhhh did the pacing of each scene feel… off? Like the whole edit seemed slightly odd, hanging too long creating awkward moments, ESPECIALLY with every away team scene, and the Sol reveal felt flat. It’s so strange to see editing be an issue in any Trek series but it definitely was a clunky handling of an otherwise really great sci-fi episode.

Yeah I got the take from “to communicate to his team” was aka kinda “pre-storyboarding” to illustrate his concepts to a team of creatives which eventually will include real storyboard and concept artists. If it’s just a tool for a writer/director who doesn’t really do concept art to help a real professional in that field hone his ideas, that’s an acceptable use of AI imo. Just as long as none of it actually is used in the storyboards/concept art.

Unironically one of my favorite things to shop for a partner, especially subtle, public use ones with concealed locks.

Well I am a socialist… I do love a good housing program. Also fostering a pet =D

Live in NYC, where my government issued bi gf? 😞

Weirdly relate to Kash Patel’s girlfriend who stopped to grab a couple of bottles of champagne and wine before evacuating. I’d do the same. If the world’s on fire, might as well dance before the flames.

Lmao yeah staged or not, absolutely this. If he’s some foreign correspondent those people don’t even flinch at accurate artillery fire. Nothing but respect for war journalists, they’re some hard mother fuckers.

Yeah so much of this seems so weird. The USSS response compared to similar incidents with other presidents seemed so odd - they secured the VP first and that staged af picture of them in a very non-tactical stack in the lobby/hallway? The fact the shooter even got past a single layer of security with a shotgun?? And apparently was some kind of IDF supporter, has anyone confirmed that picture?

If it is staged, I wonder what genius thought to do this in a room literally filled with the world’s leading investigative journalists and reporters lmao.

Yeah you’re not wrong, but my takeaway is that it’s at least going in the correct direction (haven’t heard any white supremacist stuff but wouldn’t surprise me in that part of the world). When your house is on fire, you care less about who’s the guy with a hose.

Now we just gotta see if things improve through their EU vote and restoration of human rights in Hungary. Then their people need to work towards empowering more left parties. I’m at least somewhat hopeful, especially if it helps Ukraine.

It’s beyond me that any modern democracy would even allow someone be PM/President for 16 years in the first place, and then allow them to run again. For all that’s fucked with America rn, that one they’ve done right (for now).

Damn really needed this right now. That launch teared me up, felt like a shot of hope right to my frontal cortex. Science and exploration really does bring out the best in all of us.

Had the live stream on all day, I jumped up when the clock hit T-0 yelling “fly girl FLY!” Most powerful rocket NASA has launched, I definitely teared up. We need more of this. The possibilities to show what good humanity can do.
