While some might grumble when their significant other orders fancy lightsabers for fun...I can't say I'm upset in the least. (Because I definitely will be using them too 😅) #StarWars #Lightsabers #Kyber #Sabers #Jedi #Sith

CHOOSE YOUR CHARACTER: SNW Number One (Una): Calm, collected, dependable. Kelvin Carol Marcus: Brilliant, curious, convincing. Ensign D'Vana Tendi: Enthusiastic, kind-hearted, thinks outside the box. YOU CHOOSE! #StarTrek #StarTrekLowerDecks #StarTrekSNW #KelvinTrek #Cosplay #YourFandomBestie

Dreaming about Okinawa...🌺 Not only did I live there for five years--I have had the chance to return (since moving back to the USA) each December to host/emcee the Okinawa Comic-Con! Shoutout to the ONIGIRI Plus team, MCCS Okinawa, Yui Kanan, and Hidetaka Tenjin for this photo! #Okinawa #OkiCon

Today on #MemorialDay and everyday, I remember and honor my brother-in-law's ultimate sacrifice. As everyone hopefully enjoys this Memorial Day long weekend in the USA, also take some time to reflect on today's meaning. Alex's courage will never be forgotten. #MarineCorps #MilitarySpouse #Marines

I've been saying this for a while: I think it would be the bee's knees if social media platforms had a section where you could input (and display on your profile) what you're currently watching, reading, listening to, etc., and then curate a feed of other users that were consuming the same content.

Reminiscing on Nerd Nite! I had the chance to be involved as a speaker/board member for my former chapter, Nerd Nite Okinawa. Nerd Nites are awesome events, providing a platform for speakers to share informative yet fun presentations! Hoping to bring a new chapter to my area in Wisco soon! #NerdNite

Boldly going. 🖖 #StarTrek #Cosplay #OkiCon #Trekkie #GeekCulture #Fandom #SciFi #ComicCon #Cosplayer #NerdLife #StarTrekCosplay #FanArt #PopCulture #GeekGirl #TrekOn #NextGeneration #CosplayCommunity #CosplayLife #Starfleet #BoldlyGo #LiveLongAndProsper

"Nerd." Why yes, thank you for the compliment! Let me give you an overview of my intense passion, dedication, and high-level expertise in specific subjects. A term of endearment--no doubt, that I will always GLADLY accept!

The Transformers: The Movie, gave us several memorable moments including this phrase I’ve never forgotten. The universal greeting works every time! 😄 The fact that they have a dance party (to Weird Al’s “Dare To Be Stupid”) after this is the icing on the cake!

POV: It’s 3am and the Inuyasha end credits theme blasts you awake. VIZ Media #anime #manga #inuyasha #animeexhibition #fandom #animefans #animecommunity #nostalgia #favoriteanime #YourFandomBestie #feudalera #kagome #animeexpo

The Gundam Dock in Yokohama is permanently closed now, but I’ll always be grateful that I visited while living in Japan. Gundam’s legacy: its many iterations, its exploration of morality/technology, and its reflection of Japanese society—made me fall in love with the series as an adult. #Gundam

Having a mom that always encouraged my interests built me into the proud nerd I am today! ✨️ Although she often reminded me that I could only watch one episode of Star Trek after school...😂 Happy Mother's Day, Mom! 💗 #MothersDay #Mom #STLV #TrekFamily #StarTrek #TrekkieParents #YourFandomBestie

First-time Dungeon Master here--and I hosted my very first session last week! ⚔️ I've definitely taken inspiration from DnD titans like Critical Role and Dimension 20, but thank you to my OG DnD group from all those years ago, and my forever favorite DM/hubby for always believing in me. 💓 #DnD

At my recent visit to The Adler Planetarium in Chicago, I was reminded of not only the beauty of the universe, but of our own planet at well. On Earth Day, may we all remember that there's only one Earth. Our planet. While we turn our sights towards the stars, don't forget about our blue marble.

ONE MILLION lifetime downloads of Trek Geeks. 🖖🎉 We started this because we love Star Trek. You kept us going. Thank you for every listen, every share, and every new fan you sent our way. This milestone is yours as much as ours. 🚀
