You know, I understand when deliveries need to be delayed. Shit happens. But I really wish most businesses would at least notify us that our delivery is going to be late a little more than like 6 seconds BEFORE the delivery window expires. 🫠

And we're finished for today! I guess we'll be doing “The Enemy Within” at a later time. Happy Sunday Funday, everybody!

I love how they keep lighting Kirk like he's Morticia Addams.

Wait, whatever is causing this mess with the crew is passed through perspiration and basically making them drunk? I didn't realize being drunk would cause Spock to sob uncontrollably. An excess of Jameson has also made me emotional so I get it, but like... I'm not a Vulcan, so...?

Oh man. You know shit's getting real when Spock is losing it and Scotty famously tells us that he can't control the laws of physics!!!

Oh! This IS Majel in this role because she's Nurse Chapel! I don't know why I didn't immediately make that connection. I'm familiar with Jess Bush's portrayal on Strange New Worlds but was somehow not expecting the original quite yet.

Poor Yeoman Rand. She's always getting harassed!

There's a damn bowling alley on the Enterprise?? That seems like a priority on your space ship!

Ahhhh, the classic Uhura line. Sulu grabs hold of her and states, “I'll protect you, fair maiden!” and Uhura pushes away from him and simply responds, “Sorry, neither!” Y'all can't tell me she was not immediately awesome!

Sulu is shirtless and terrorizing random crew members with a sword. What in the...??

Oh. I guess Spock and Uhura are much too busy to have noticed Sulu and the rando sneaking off the bridge to go do shenanigans. The door even WHOOSHED and no response. That's some damn fine concentration!

Hey, is this nurse helping Bones played by Majel??? We love her!

Joey just tried to attach Sulu and some rando in the mess hall with a butter knife. What???

And the Red Shirt just used his bare hands outside of his hazmat suit to wipe his nose. Um, hello???

Spock and some Red Shirt are immediately beaming down to a frozen planet. There is a body completely frozen in the midst of what looks like office administration. Was this a flash freeze, because otherwise, why were they still doing Excel pivot tables or whatever when it got cold? Like...??

Sitting down for lunch and starting up the next couple of episodes of the epic Star Trek rewatch! So buckle up: I'm live-posting “The Naked Time” and “The Enemy Within” starting now!

I love when I watch videos online for fun facts about Kansas since we're still (relatively) new here and they give us a bunch of facts about the Kansas City Chiefs from Kansas City, MO. 🫠 I know they're moving across the border soon, BUT STILL.

I'm good at exactly two things: Relating everything to Buffy the Vampire Slayer and dying in video games. 🥴🤷‍♂️

I've deployed too damn many lures trying to snag one of these and eventually traded for it. I'm talking literally like 20+ in one night. A plague on both your houses, Palia. 😠

I really hope that every single person who was so stupid they believed his lies about ending wars in the middle east feels so much shame and regret, they collapse into a singularity. We told you so. We fucking told you so.

Does anyone else ever feel like no matter how much time, love, effort, energy, money, food, etc. you give your pets, it still doesn't feel like enough to make sure they know you love them or are you normal??? 😭

And while I'm sharing cat content, go ahead and have this one of my Cinnamon. Though sometimes I call him “pumpkin,” because he's orange and round. Evidence: He was trying to get my food when I took this photo! 😂🧡

I can't believe that I never shared this photo of Rufus that I took a little while ago. It got posted basically everywhere else that I have access to! 😂 I love him so much. He's my little snugglebug. 🥰

I've updated much of my website. I sorta relaxed the push for people to “subscribe” to my blog, though you 100% still can if you'd like to. Rewrote my “About” page and placed it and some other trivial pages under the “More” dropdown in the navbar. Reworked some stuff. Come see! jiggyflyjoe.com

Actually slept through the entire night and woke up at an almost normal time this morning! Who am I???

I moved my website back to WordPress a few months ago and now I'm starting to get angry at it. Recommendations??

Taking a small break from the Star Trek rewatch to catch this week's NEW episode of Starfleet Academy! No worries: I'm not live posting this one. Not until we're there in airdate order, at least! I'm so excited for more TILLY though! Mary Wiseman is incredible and I need more of you to know that!

One time on Facebook, I got accused of having “severe toxoplasmosis poisoning” when someone was trying to gaslight me about their political opinion because my default photo at the time was of me kissing the top of my cat's head. 🥴 Anyway, it's weird to me that people still enjoy that platform.

Exactly. I think AI can be an excellent method with which to HELP you learn or breakdown complicated concepts, but at the end of the day, if ChatGPT is essentially just doing the assignments for you, then why do we even care??

This observation is only about a day late but I forgot to mention that Dr. Dehner in our last episode of Star Trek was played by Hot Lips Houlihan! (Movie version; not TV version.)

Okay, well the Gary Mitchell of it all was semi-interesting, but this was a little slow. I can actually see why they chose a different episode to air after “The Cage.” That's all for today though, friends! Hoping to watch more tomorrow!

Oh, well of course Kirk has to get his uniform partially torn off. Shatner must have felt he hadn't shown enough skin this episode.

I'm not sure what's more absurd... The phaser rifle design or Shatner's acting during the more dramatic moments. 😳

We all keep just referring to the eye effect as “Gary Mitchell eyes.” I keep wanting to sing it to the tune of “Bette Davis Eyes,” but I don't want to risk JoJo Siwa aggro. 😬

Gary Mitchell just Emperor zapped Kirk and Spock! What the heck? Why do superpowered people keep trying to take over the Enterprise??

I'm actually curious as to how they accomplished the light in Gary Mitchell's eyes in this episode. I'm guessing they're practical effects since they don't look cheesy like most of the special FX of this time period. Did they have colored contact lenses back then?? 🤔

Oooooh we get Sulu AND Scotty in this episode! As a treat!

Oh good, Charlie's been sent packing with his own people. What a nightmare that would've been to deal with. Ugh! Now starting the ACTUAL “Where No Man Has Gone Before” episode! This was apparently intended as the reworked pilot, so I'm interested to see how Kirk & Co. were MEANT to be introduced!

This holy terror just leered at Uhura, oh hell no! 🤬

Charlie just referred to Spock as “Mr. Ears.” That's gotta be like a Vulcan racial slur or something, what the hell? The sexual harassment of Janice is also unforgiv—He just disappeared her too! Somebody sedate this devil child!

Okay, Charlie is now just straight up disappearing people with that face. What is happening?!

Whoa, Charlie has been weird from right out of the gate, but what the heck is this? Is this acting?? I - 🤷‍♂️

We're getting a Uhura musical number! I am SEATED!!!

Our first immediate thoughts are what Kirk is in a wrap-around green uniform while other crew members with Charlie are in the normal uniforms. Is this meant to be like a dress uniform? I am confusion.

Sitting down with Dad to watch “Charlie X,” the third episode of Star Trek. Live thoughts to follow! 😊

The only thing that really sucks about needing to sleep is that most of the time when I'm exhausted, my brain also wants to go play with code. 😭

I really need to start grocery shopping in person. The most interesting weirdos are out there.

Got Dad on board with the big Star Trek rewatch, so I didn't watch any further episodes today while he got caught up on the first two! His opinions mostly centered around wishing Jeffrey Hunter had stuck around instead of recasting William Shatner as the lead later. I can't say that he's wrong... 👀

Watched this video also and approve of it wholeheartedly. We can make the internet a much more personal space if we wanted to.

This. Exactly this. And louder for the people in the back. I used to *LOVE* Twitter. For the briefest of times, it was my favorite social platform. But something changed. Something that I feel was inevitable, with or without Elon Musk. Don't put all your eggs in one basket. That's my two cents.
