I love s2, it's very dear to me!

This is the first autumn in 5 years without new episodes of #StarTrekLowerDecks.😢 Man, I really miss the show!!! It always made me laugh (I need that now!) and it had the deepest and most outrageous callbacks. Plus: it showed that it IS totally okay to talk about chairs on starships - I feel heard!

Umberto Eco, who owned 50,000 books, had this to say about home libraries: "It is foolish to think that you have to read all the books you buy, as it is foolish to criticize those who buy more books than they will ever be able to read. It would be like saying that you should use all the cutlery or glasses or screwdrivers or drill bits you bought before buying new ones. "There are things in life that we need to always have plenty of supplies, even if we will only use a small portion. "If, for example, we consider books as medicine, we understand that it is good to have many at home rather than a few: when you want to feel better, then you go to the 'medicine closet' and choose a book. Not a random one, but the right book for that moment. That's why you should always have a nutrition choice! "Those who buy only one book, read only that one and then get rid of it. They simply apply the consumer mentality to books, that is, they consider them a consumer product, a good. Those who love books know that a book is anything but a commodity."

that time of the week again!

Oh yes! Even if it's not fair to compare novels and tv shows, in my head The Last Best Hope stands head and shoulders above S03 (which I liked).

The Name of the Rose movie poster

Rest in peace, Drew Struzan. His movie posters are much more than marketing. They're some of the finest pop art you'll ever see. Look at this masterpiece:

Yes, I agree. And they have their demographics and target audience. But somehow this just rubs me wrong, gets me out of setting. I really hope that we'll not see a lot of this stuff in the show.

Right now I like almost everything that was shown in trailers. What I didn't care about are those "contemporary US university" esthetics they were projecting on early promos. "Branded" sweatshirts with logos, small university flags, even the font on early logo was very generic US college style.

Ultimate 2 is a great controller!

All Trek isn't without flaws. But I'll always choose the one, that aspires to be bold, brave and courageous.

Yes, beautiful mess is exactly what it is, and I love it too!

Controversial Star Trek opinion:

Starfleet as a vehicle for storytelling is played out

The franchise hints at Starfleet not being so virtuous, then has its characters drink the Kool-Aid anyway. DS9, PIC s1-2, PRO scratched the surface of stories about every day people, there's way more to tell

On its birthday, share one image from your favorite TNG episode.

And of course, we had to have a mirror universe version of him named Jason Scorn. Shown here in an alternate Vasquez rocks with the Terran empire symbol behind him.

If you remember early #StarTrekDiscovery production, writer Ted Sullivan (shown here holding Jason) was admonished by CBS for showing a green screen, as if somehow that ruined the magic for fans. So he created something that he could post, Jason Gorn! It kind of had a life of its own for a while.

Happy 8 years of Disco to all those who celebrate! 🖖🚀🎉

s04e07 ...But to Connect

Great episode, great season, great show!

Oh my dear beauties 💜

Seeing another post lamenting US TV doesn't do 26 episode seasons for most things any more is always going to be funny to me because, having read so many books on the making of things like 90s Trek, it's very clear the people making those shows fucking hated that system at the time.

I thing it look very interesting and unusual.
