Every time I watch ALIEN I am transfixed thinking to myself "there's no way they've left themselves enough room to get the third horizontal line in that E without it looking like a squashed-in mess!" but no, every single time there it is, and it's beautiful. Most tense part of the movie tbh.

Given how many characters are foodies that turn their noses up at replicators, I assume replicated food is like eating at an Applebee's. It's not good, but it's fine as long as you get something safe that can't be messed up too badly.

Does anyone know of a Western written by a woman that they could recommend? I'm looking to fill in a gap in a future reading project. "Western" has to be the main genre, so not children's/YA or literary fiction or romance, etc. #books #booksky

Captain: Janeway 1st: Data Tactical: Kirk (TOS version) Science: Jadzia Dax Engineer: Geordi Doc: T'Ana (hurts to not include Bones, my fav character, but T'Ana would be better with this cast) What's he doing here?: Garak

I'm feeling grumpy, so in an attempt to change that I am posting these old fake Antiques Roadshow pictures that make me laugh

40 plus appreciation post! Reskeet with a pic of you're on the right side of 40. 42.

finally got a good little guy on my phone

Tonight on the CBS Late Movie: Star Trek: Generations. Sort of. #StarTrek #StarTrekTNG

I've really been enjoying making little omnomnom noises when I eat something yummy lately.

Snowths AND a koozbanian?? 😍

Belated 2024 Roundup Post Part 3: Music I challenged myself to listen to 52 new-to-me albums, and I just made it (by squeezing in some quicker-to-evaluate x-mas albums in December). My ratings of the 52: A+: 0 A: 3 B+: 5 B: 13 C+: 15 C: 10 C-: 4 D: 2 F: 0

Belated 2024 Roundup Post Part 2: Books I challenged myself to read 52 books. Read 56 (including 12 picture books and 1 short story, and not counting DNFs), 37 for the first time. My ratings of the 37: A+: 2 A: 2 B+: 3 B: 12 C+: 12 C: 3 C-: 2 D: 1 F: 0

Belated 2024 Roundup Post Part 1: Movies I challenged myself to watch 104 movies. Watched 106, 67 for the first time. My ratings of the 67: A+: 0 A: 2 B: 11 C+: 18 C: 16 C-: 8 D: 9 F: 3 Ugh. That's a pretty grim rating breakdown, and not typical of me. Am I running low on good old movies?

post a photo of who your shoulder angel and shoulder demon would be

This explains so much.

“You mean that garish gold bauble that used to belong to that horrible little man? Now, darling, don’t be angry with me but I went ahead and just took it straight to Mount Doom. It was telepathically hissing at me in the most IRRITATING way and I didn’t want that kind of energy in the house.”

just think: by this time tomorrow we're all going to somehow be even MORE anxious

Morning, everyone

Pumpkin Patch. 🎃

I am almost precisely average.

We need a word for that state of being right after you've finished a good book, where your mind and spirit are still a little bit someplace else.

Every time I see the little ad telling me Olympics coverage on Peacock is sponsored by Disney+, it bothers me more than it should. It's like, "You're watching NBC, brought to you by ABC." Is anyone even flying this plane?

Large Brent, why did you leave us...?
