Who didn’t?

John Lithgow looking weird.

They were part of the ship’s frame of reference. This applies to standard physics but is explicitly true if there’s a warp bubble around the ship.

Now who can argue with that? I think we’re all indebted to TheFerrango for clearly stating what needed to be said. I’m particulary glad that these lovely children were here today to hear that speech. Not only was it authentic Star Trek technobabble, it expressed a courage little seen in this day and age.

Yeah. Commits going right to prod makes my skin crawl.

Took me a while to track it down, but I think this is the book to which you were referring.

I make no cleans about the stances of this artist; I just saw this strip years ago.

Alan Tudyk would have been a good Stamets, but Anthony Rapp has been perfection.

And in strange memory caches, even death may die.

Time for testing then 😊

Is there an option for being Evil Overlord List compliant?

Insert joker eating popcorn gif here.

I always got the impression that the medical staff doubled as life science experts and that was the reason for the blue.

Also uses ableist language.

Here’s one: Trading cards are something you own. Skins are limited to a game you’re licensing.

Here’s another: trading cards are portable; they can be put in a collection for display, put in a safety deposit box, etc. When CS goes, all the skins go with it.

Another minor one: baseball cards are informational, the skins are cosmetic only.

Mind you, I think both are forms of unregulated gambling and trading cards as well as loot boxes should have better societal scrutiny, but they aren’t identical.

Edited for typo

I experienced this and still get PTSD flashbacks 😢

This screams Dresden Files.

Why is it that even in the memes, O’Brien must suffer? 🥺

Why do I get the impression that this is part of basic Ferengi education?

Huh, and here I was expecting Meteion the Endsinger (scroll down to The Source of the Sound). That’d be a good crossover. Giving her a Starfleet Captain speech 😂

Unlike Jellico, Shaw actually paid attention to those under his command and showed character growth. Granted, Jellico only had a limited time, but he was given a lot of assholery and extremely few humanizing traits/moments.

With Shaw, it’s spelled out why he is the way he is and that even with those burdens/wounds, he’s still trying. You don’t get any of that from Jellico. The closest you get is him dropping ranks to insult his first officer and then subsequently asking him to do an extremely difficult/dangerous assignment.

Steve Shives defends him, and I do see his point, but my counter-argument to that is worse for efficiency to change up ways of working immediately before a critical event, even if you think your way is better, and to ignore what the modern day calls the “human element”.
