This has lived rent-free in my head since this episode originally aired back in the stone ages.

Congratulations, the bank gave you a credit card. That doesn't make you better than me. But, you see, nobody gives me credit because I'm a bad risk and I don't pay my bills on time. SO I HAVE TO WORK FOR WHAT I HAVE!

or the Reeves-Stevenses

DS9: Millennium was fantastic. Third book seemed like it had some filler and drug on a bit too long in certain areas, but overall the whole trilogy was great. Arla Rees, though.....ugh. lol

Start on TrekLit! Seriously...join me; you'll (probably) love it.

I started with "A Stitch in Time" because I've wanted to read it forever, and now I've gone through that plus two trilogies and am on 4 out of 5 books in the "Star Trek: Picard" sequel/interquel series.

Hard copies might be difficult / expensive to obtain since many of them are out of print, but ebooks [dot] com has most of them available DRM-free if you've got an e-reader or don't mind reading on your phone. A couple of the newer ones are DRM-only so I had to buy them and high-seas a DRM-free version lol. From what I've noticed, it seems like the publisher doesn't release the DRM-free version until 5 years after initial release. So, ethical piracy is my solution to that.

Here's some gems from the one I'm reading now (ST Picard: Firewall). It's about Seven's time with the Fenris Rangers

Oh, snap. This meme and the reply to it are how I learned Barbara March died in 2019.

Ha, thanks. It was inspired by this post.

Lursa. She's always the one with the jowly scowl.

I've logged countless hours in Skyrim, always keep Serana as my indestructible pack mule, and cannot believe I've never once noticed that lol.

Please tell me they have to give me a paper ballot if I ask.

He does, just not in the I guess fan art one I grabbed for this.

But if the wipers rotate 360 degrees instead of 180 back and forth, does that make them tassels?

Is Optimus Prime the original "boob windows" ?

As much as I strongly (very strongly) dislike AI-generated anything, I can at least acknowledge that there can be ethical uses of it assuming you hold your nose and ignore the very likely unethical means by which the model(s) were trained.

That said, what you described would definitely not be ethical IMO. I see where you're coming from, I do, but I've never been one to fight disinformation/lies with more disinformation/lies. Beyond the slippery slope, it's still operating in bad faith and not something I could ever consider ethical let alone welcome.

 

From "Star Trek Picard: Firewall"

Still on TrekLit and out of my re-watch schedule, so trying to make some jokes from that.

As a general rule, I will never click a link unless it clearly states where it's taking me. Except I needed to see what the error meant, so I clicked open on it. Yay interstitial ads! 😠

Edit: Re-upload. Beltran should be facing the audience.

 

"Take Me Out to the Holosuite" didn't become my new favorite episode or anything, but I did enjoy it after years of skipping it because I got bored with the baseball plot the first time I saw it.

I also always skipped VOY: Initiations and had completely forgotten Aron Eisenberg was in that one until the last re-watch when I opted not to skip any episodes.

 

In a game that's all about decision-making aboard the U.S.S. 'Voyager,' of course players are going to be asked to tackle one of the most infamous decisions made in 'Star Trek.'

Last month, we were very excited to see the announcement of Star Trek: Voyager – Across the Unknown, a new survival game from Daedelic Entertainment and Gamexcite that tasks you with charting the U.S.S. Voyager‘s journey home from the Delta Quadrant as you repair the ship in the wake of the event that flung it 70,000 light-years across space in the first place, and make your own decisions from the captain’s chair about where to go, who to fight, and who’s on your crew.

And yes, that means you will be able to decide whether or not there is justice for Tuvix.

...

Star Trek Voyager – Across the Unknown still doesn’t have a release window, but aside from being available to wishlist on Steam for PC players, it’s now been confirmed that the game is also coming to Xbox Series X and S as well as PS5.
