Chief Miles Edward O'Brien, who could strangle you with a cordless phone if he wanted to, is pictured. Chief O'Brien, who can kill 2 stones with 1 bird, is facing the camera and winking. O'Brien, who can dribble a bowling ball, is on DS9 station and wearing his classic gold uniform, and has the energy of a man who is walking away from an explosion without looking backwards at it. Closed caption reads, "He was more than a hero. He was a union man."

I want to give #Mastodon a proper go this time, but it's hard to connect with people when no-one follows you, and hashtags only get you so far. 😞

So, if you like one of the hashtags below, please consider following me, and if you do, I'll follow you back! Thank you. 💗

Star Trek The Search for Spock scene. Our Lord and Savior Spock is pictured in a white robe. He stands surrounded by his shipmates who are all older here than they were in the TV show. Sulu is touching Spock's chest for some reason and he's smiling. Uhura, Chekov, Scotty, and Bones also all seem thrilled to see him. Despite being surrounded by friends, Spock is staring only at Kirk, for obvious reasons.

Strange New Worlds scene. We're in the Enterprise corridor. It's white and brightly lit. Nurse Chapel, who also has strikingly white hair, is talking to Spock, both are in uniform. Spock's ears look slightly different than usual, less pointy.
Closed caption on Chapel, "Um, how's, uh, feeling going?"
Caption on Spock, "It's a lot."

Wonderful news: The #StarTrek "Deep Space Nine" documentary "What We Left Behind" is now available for free on YouTube!

This is the first time European fans can watch it legally (outside of the few public screenings that happened back in 2018 when the movie was released).

Legally blind Strange New Worlds actor Bruce Horak (Hemmer) had news earlier this spring that I somehow missed:

- a crowdfunded documentary is being made about his ‘Boldly going’ as a disabled actor and visual artist

- he met with William Shatner, who has agreed for Bruce to paint his portrait. (Bruce paints as he sees with his very limited vision in one eye.)

Here’s a report from CTV from his hometown of Calgary filed in March.

“And he says he’s an example of how DEI works – for everyone.

“When you design for disability, everyone benefits,” he said, pointing out that phone texting started as something to assist the hearing-impaired and now it’s for everyone.”

TOS scene. We're on 'da bridge. Bonsey and Kirky are standing along the console bank of buttons and switches and lights and are regarding something Spock is saying. Spock himself is sitting at his science station turned out to chat with his 2 best friends. It's all very ordinary and normal, no funny business. Closed caption reads, "THE OVERALL PATTERN OF MASS INSANITY DESTROYING CIVILIZATIONS"

It's the weekend, baby
#StarTrek

Shaxs from Star Trek Lower Decks is pictured. He's a cartoon, because Lower Decks, besides being the best effing show ever, is a cartoon. Shaxs is a big burly man wearing his gold Star fleet uniform and also an apron over the front like he's doing some sort of art project or baking a nice sourdough. In each hand he's holding a broken bottle like that thing you do where you take a bottle and break off the bottom and then use it as a weapon. His eyeballs are bulging large, his brow is furrowed, and he looks absolutely unhinged with rage and anger. Closed caption reads, "Fighting fascism is a full time job!"

A Borg cube is pictured in space. Just sitting there. I don't think it's at warp because the stars aren't long lines, just spots. Closed caption reads, "It's been a busy week."

It’s kind of rare for a show to get this much of a warning that their show is ending. So not only has the third season not yet aired (July 17), the fourth season is in production, and finally they’ll get a truncated fifth season of 6 episodes (instead of 10). I should hope they’ll be able to wrap it up nicely in that case.

Happy 13th anniversary!

My husband and I are huge geeks, so we decided to sprinkle it throughout our wedding. We even had the ceremony at a planetarium! It was an amazing time!

Click the alt text for more tidbits.

Here's to many more years!

Two photos of Joy and her husband. The top is of her being surprised after the ceremony by her friends doing a lightsaber salute. The friends are holding lightsabers above Joy and her husband as they walk through. At the bottom is a photo booth photo of Joy and her husband holding lightsabers. Joy is in her red Chinese dress and wearing sunglasses. Her husband is holding her and wearing a Viking helmet. His face is covered by a smiling emoji.

Last year, astronomers detected a fast radio burst that got them excited as to a new discovery, but confused them as to the signal's power

When they pinpointed the signal it turned out to be... a #NASA satellite that died in 1964

They have some good theories as to how the zombie satellite fired off some signals but us #StarTrek fans know what's going on

Hi everyone,

I feel like a re-introduction is long overdue!

My name is Anna, and I'm an assistant professor of Algorithmics at the Delft University of Technology, specialising in combinatorial optimisation, symbolic AI, constraint programming, propositional model counting, operations research and reasoning under uncertainty.

I'm a nerd, a feminist and a traveller, not always in that order.

In my spare time I like to hike and go geocaching. I try to go swing dancing a few times a week. I am a Trekkie. I want to learn how to draw. I am an Indomie and Obsidian enthusiast. Based in the Netherlands, I miss Belgium, Canada and Singapore.

Since a job in academia somehow always is personal, I have chosen to mix professional interactions with the more personal ones on this platform. At least for now. Obviously, my opinions do not necessarily reflect those of my employer yadiyadiyada.

Hope to keep interacting with you all!
