Dunno what I'm doing here. I'm a fan of federation, but not sure about microblogging. Trying see what's going on with Trek and arboriculture.

I just got way more interested in the show. Notaro and Picardo are fantastic. Whatever they do, it'll be worth it to see those two.

Just tried it, and it rendered properly after 2 clicks(3 altogether including the original)

I'm getting peculiar behavior clicking on your boosts. Not sure what's going on. I suspect it's a mastodon issue(I'm on 4.2.10), but I can't say for sure. Once I get to the attached page, I can click the links, and everything works fine.
- Comment on Just finished season 2 of Star Trek: Prodigy--it is absolutely criminal that Paramount (or CBS or whoever) cancelled it 4 months ago:
I wonder how bad the numbers were; if it was losing money, or they just didn't make all the money like they wanted. Sometimes you have to give things time to find the audience.
Prodigy is a bit of a weird one, and I'm not surprised it didn't catch on right away. IMO, it could've been profitable(if it isn't already), with the audience slowly and steadily increasing.
FTR, I'm old, and I love it. I was disappointed I didn't see someone, but you can't have everything - Comment on Interview: Elias Toufexis On Making Star Trek History Playing L’ak And Nerding Out In ‘Discovery’ 5 months ago:
Heh... Yea, I forgot about that. Trek isn't always the best at consistency, or perfect logic. They could still pretend that never happened, or give some hand wavy explanation for why Kira and Dukat never mentioned what they look like.
It's out there now. I guess we'll see where it goes. I'm not upset. There's been worse design decisions in the franchise :^)

It could go either way. Someone around here postulated they were proto changlings. That's pretty interesting. There's other cool ways to spin it, and lame ways also of course. Like all this stuff, I think "Ok, now what?". I hope what they come up with outweighs the fun mystery of the Breen.
- Comment on Thoughts on fixing production mistakes in remasters? 11 months ago:
I'll go further and say I'm not in favor of remasters. I want everything original, low res warts and all. Tasteful enhancements don't really bother me much, but I'm just as happy with the original versions, and consider them a record of history.
- Comment on Reflections on my first Star Trek Conference 1 year ago:
I've never been to a con, and likely never will, but it's a lot of work for an actor to be there. They take time out of their lives, have to be charming, and operate the assembly line of autographs on a multi day event. I'm not sure there's a clearly correct answer, but them being there is a real job with real work. Having them do it all gratis is a big ask.
- Comment on Star Trek: Strange New Worlds to Feature First-Ever Star Trek Musical Episode | SDCC 2023 1 year ago:
We'll see... Can't say I'm stoked, but maybe it'll be better than I anticipate. I'm not really a fan of musicals in the first place. I could count the ones I find 'acceptable' on one hand, and can only think of two atm. If it turns out merely 'acceptable' I'll be happy enough. Hopefully the actors had fun.
