How DARE you come into my house and look at my shelves of notebooks?!

Trip his behind him on his right, holding him back, and a woman with red curly hair is standing to their left, looking concerned. with the words “Star Trek Enterprise: First Flight. Below, there’s a section in blue with the white letters saying “The Wrong Stuff! (feat. Nicole Gugliucci)”

New episode is out today on #startrekENT's “First Flight,” otherwise known as The Right Stuff but with added crimes and daddy issues. Plus, our guest @noisyastronomer.com joined us, mainly so they could sigh dramatically at every mention of dark matter, which was surely all scientifically accurate.

Science of sex and gender being misrepresented by Trump officials, experts warn Scientists say crackdown on gender-affirming care could have impact on healthcare of all Americans

Lots of very good information and some great quotes from @jeymccreight.bsky.social in this piece about the science of sex and gender and how it’s being twisted by the Trump administration to justify policies that hurt or could even kill trans people.

This is AMAZING!!!

"These are shitty Borg... They're like Temu Borg." - line from @uajamie.bsky.social killed me dead.

I would trust us even less after this - the Duck Penis Debacle of 2026. #duckpenisgate

Nobody needed this, Jamie.

There’s no accounting for taste I guess ❤️❤️

Don’t sass me, Plait 🙂

It was so much fun nerding out with Phil on this episode!

Went over to the hellsite where I'd deleted almost every tweet to see what data I had left there while I'm deleting Meta... and look, it's a zombie tweet! My most famous-making viral tweet lives.

Even though I definitely deleted it several years ago. h/t @mariadsouza.bsky.social THE FRIEND 😂

I solved this problem last year when we moved by making a big box and labeling it MOTHERFUCKER. Dropped all that shit into there to deal with when I’m not furious/weepy/both. (ie probably never)

We were MAD y’all.

Yay! Glad you’re enjoying it! It’s so much fun to do!

My laptop suddenly threw me an update required message and forced me to exit. A little disruptive but good for you, BIOS. Self care is so important.

Top portion features the EnterpriseSplaining logo with the subheading “A Star Trek Podcast” Middle portion is an image from the Enterprise episode The Breach showing Phlox in sick bay standing over a patient who is lying in a bed. The patient has his hand up, as if refusing something Phlox has offered with the words “Star Trek Enterprise: The Breach. Below, there’s a section in blue with the white letters saying “Denobulan Spiders-Man!”

In our episode today, with guest geologist @mikamckinnon.bsky.social, @mariadsouza.bsky.social tells us about the #StarTrekENT episode “The Breach” where the guys do some incompetent spelunking, getting Travis injured again, & Phlox treats an alien from a species that are enemies with the Denobulans

100% accurate

I mean come ON look at these cuties!

Look I LOVE Heated Rivalry as much as the next girl and probably more but I'm also 51 years old so I am also mostly "Oh they're all such sweet boys! 🥰"

I needed this and you might too.

What about blowdarts tho?

I got "yeasty." YEASTY!

Seems unlikely.

I was born in 1974 & have nostalgia for the 80s but dang, the 90s were a weird-ass decade. Like, let's all wear spaghetti straps and overalls. Our glasses have to be thin and rectangular and we will listen to anything from monks chanting to brass bands we will be taking no questions.

I've been laughing about this clip for an hour now. And I stand by the opinions I voiced here.

This all started when Riker told the Holodeck computer to create an advent calendar that can defeat Maria.

And that's a wrap on BololyGo Advent. Thanks for coming along with me on this ridiculous journey! It turned out a whole lot more fun than I ever expected. #BololyGone

An ornament of sort of a Klingon. Holding a bath'leth with a bow on it. Only it looks more like garden shears. He only has one glove on. He looks mad.

December 24: The Final Frontier. Or more likely the Fenil Fribtoor. It's supposed to be a Klingon with a bath'leth but let's be real. It's Jason Momoa with garden shears. And one glove. And he mad.

Then the Riker ornament said "Computer, end program" and exited the Holodeck
