Senior Chief Petty Officer. Starfleet is in my blood, and I've spent my entire adult life in service to boldly going.

Keiko and Molly are my favorite humans, but Transporter Room 3 will always be my favorite.

Just don't ask who what's in the pattern buffer.

  • What Star Trek media did you watch in the last week? - 03/18/26

    Jump

  • S4e3-S5e2 of Lower Decks

    S5e12-S5e18 TNG

    Galaxy Quest

  • HD Mirror Rule

    Jump

  • Look, if your mirror doesn't come with at least 4k/240fps, then you're not getting the full MirroreXperience™

  • The easiest way to give away free stuff is to let someone "steal" it.

    Jump

  • That is an old joke, I heard it as an old fridge.

    Literally where I got the idea from. No idea where I heard the joke, I want to say my grandpa?

    Regardless, if it works, it works.

    Jump

  • I wanted to get rid of an old lawnmower that was technically operational, but literally held together with duct tape and baling wire. That's not an exaggeration, I had to use wire to keep the deck from falling off, and it still did if you hit a bump too hard.

    Sat out every nice day for about a week and a half with a "FREE" sign next to it

    The day I replaced the sign with "$20", I went to hammock in the park, and came back to a sign, no mower, and no money. Exactly as I wanted

  • when I say I hate my country, everyone feels sorry for me. when I say I'd live somewhere else, they say "get lost, we don't want you here." funny

    Jump

  • Well, not from the same country, but yeah close enough and also when you explain what each country is doing that's bad, not really much of a difference.

  • $5 says we live in the same country, but even if we don't, I feel that so hard

    Most people even agree on the reasons you dislike your government, and agree that you as an individual can't do much to change the course of your country.

    Plenty even suggest finding a better place to live.

    The second you suggest you might seek refuge in their area though, the pearl clutching begins.

    A few months ago I basically said "it sucks because I would move to X country but based on immigration laws I'm not a refugee yet and I don't have a degree" and someone straight up said then maybe I should have gone to college.

    It's like people expect you specifically to be some wonder woman superman and single-handedly and change the course of the largest most expensive government and military on the planet, and if you don't then you should be doing your part by rushing a cop while holding a gun because protesting and organizing isn't good enough for their timetable while they sit comfy and cozy on their couch.

    It's bullshit mental gymnastics and good old fashioned cognitive dissonance. Denial and ignorance are rampant, because if they stopped to think about it logically they would have nothing but compassion and understanding for the people trying to flee an oppressive regime.

  • Happy St. Patrick's Day

    Jump

  • As progressive as star trek was for its time, it still has its moments that make reasonable people shift uncomfortably in their seat.

    Obligatory Fuck Rick Fucking Berman

  • art of warule

    Jump

  • Adventuring Gold

    Jump

  • This hand-crafted, gold necklace with diamond, ruby sapphire, and emeralds adorning the intricately carved centerpiece?

    5 gold pieces.

    That moldy slice of bread you picked up accidentally from a barrel in the bottom of a 1500 year old shipwreck?

    ..... I'll give you 3 gold.

  • Tucker Carlson Facing ‘Foreign Agent’ Charges, He Says—’They Read My Texts’

    Jump

  • Well, it'll be taught, just not as official curriculum.

    I learned about a man from Nantucket at school.

  • The FDA is taking public comments on a petition to create a federal registry of trans women

    Jump

  • Because their only experience with anything involving trans people is in porn, and there is a huge amount of trans-fem content when compared to trans-masc.

    So they literally don't think about FtM trans people at all.

    It's also why many of them view trans people simply existing as inherently sexual.

  • ring ring, it’s Irish ruleification

    Jump

  • therapy is expensive 😖

    Jump

  • If posting memes and commenting on memes isn't therapy then I'm in some trouble....

  • New ‘negative light’ technology hides data transfers in plain sight

    Jump

  • And the United States government, whose nuclear launch systems for decades had a default "0000000" password on systems so old they figured nobody would know how to hack them in person anymore, and they're incompatible with the internet.

    It's disturbing to me that my high school hobby of fixing and operating old computers meant I could have launched nukes.

  • North Korea fires about 10 missiles toward sea in show of force, Seoul says

    Jump

  • North Korea really hates the ocean.

    What did the ocean ever do to north Korea?

  • Tim Apple calls for a rebellion!

    Jump

  • The misfits in question: you wanna take on "The Man" but your mom says you have to be back inside by 5:30 so you can go get a pair of JNCO jeans at the mall.

  • Wow babe, check this out!

    Jump

  • It's less that we "send each other videos we know the other doesn't like" and more "when we're relaxing and watching videos, we will show each other a funny video or two but eventually neither of us really cares about the videos as much as the other but neither of us dislikes them enough to stop it because it's not about the videos it's about spending time with each other"

  • US forecasts blizzard, polar vortex, heat dome and atmospheric river all at once

    Jump

  • Last year most of the fields around me turned to slop as it was too wet for many weeks, and most fields couldn't get equipment through the mud

  • How falling battery costs are igniting race for round-the-clock solar power

    Jump

  • As someone who has access to about 3kw of solar panels, and wants to cut down on my electricity bill, where did you manage to get batteries so cheap? I've been burned on 18650s from supposedly reliable retailers before...
