We had planned to do a show today on the top things we hope to see in #StarTrek #StarfleetAcademy. However, with CBS pulling the recent #60Minutes segment, I feel obligated to talk about the concentration camp that Paramount doesn't want you to know about www.youtube.com/watch?v=SqhN...

An uncomfortable truth for us as a community is that CBS, Star Trek's owners and Paramountparent company, shielded the Trump Administration by removing the 60 Minute CECOT documentary.

This is the Starfleet we need right now.

Hey Stardusts! While I'm known for space sci-comm, that is work I do because at its heart is a love for our planet and the life on it. In my other life I run a small non-profit called Esther's Echo that supports a school started by Sierra Leone local community leader Esther Kanu. 1/2

If you're looking for a spacey Christmas Gift this Holiday Season, I wanted to offer a space print from yours truly. I have done some astrophotography over the years and you could give one of my prints to somebody special! What would you get: 1/3

This is the importance of buying the books we write and teach from university presses. The same administrations that don’t care about the humanities would be just as happy to have academic publishing handled by these companies. We can save our own publishing ecosystem- but we have to do it.

I'm really excited about this episode, Stardusts! It is a continuation of an awesome conversation catalyzed by the incredible @chanda.blacksky.app that began IRL at the STLV TREKtivism panel. We talk about how The #StarTrek future is fundamentally incompatible with capitalism.

Anyway if you want to listen to something optimistic, there’s a new episode of @trektivism.bsky.social where I talk about why everyone should read The Communist Manifesto, especially Trekkies! #StarTrek 9a4b639a-c801-4706-b740-ef7b7ee752f7.libsyn.com/socialism-st...

"Robo Cimone" started as a Halloween costume in Uni but lived on to make appearances at other events on campus. I spent 80 dollars in material to save 2 dollars on the campus Halloween party if you showed up in costume. The battery back was 25lbs lol. Still my fav costume. 🤖

just found the plans for the new White House ballroom

This was so much fun! Thanks to the @captainsquadrant.bsky.social crew for having me on board repping for @trektivism.bsky.social

An update to the "Two ways that I explore the Universe" post with a new ride in front of the SFU #TrottierObservatory. Beats the bus (I still support mass transit infrastructure).

It is absolutely vital that we read books & stories from cultures & communities not our own, but while we're retraining our brains to read/think with real depth, we might want to rethink HOW we read those other stories. Bad Indians Book Club explores that exact space...

The whole crew grieves for the @syfysistas.bsky.social today. As Spock said, "There are always possibilities."

I had a dream last night that was animated. I've never experienced that before. The style was specific as well - similar to the style from Invincible. Anybody recall having a dream with a particular art style? Brains are amazing.

Atheist proselytizers are the religious proselytizers I’m most likely to come into contact with and they’re just as annoying as all of the other ones I experience

See you there!

Or at least responsible!!!!!

I hear Kristie Noem has arrested the girlfriend of the founder of Antifa. Was she in Canada? (Little shout out to Avenue Q but I digress). Since it was a movement founded in 1920 to combat fascism I rather doubt this claim unless Kristie was using a Ouija Board.

I was well over 30 when I wrote and published my first novel, and fully agree with you!

Before my feed becomes all Taylor/SHOWGIRL: World Space Week starts Saturday & we're celebrating all next week! Join us on Tuesday Oct 7 at noon ET for a live Zoom call on Women in Space: Claiming Power & Creating Equity 💫 Link in next comment - submit your questions by Monday evening! 💜✨🪐☀️

I'm grateful so many world leaders chose to walk out of President Vasil Ghurkos' speech at the United Nations.

Had tickets to see #StarWars in concert tonight in Vancouver by the #VSO - ultimately a series of films about fighting oppression. Unions are a great way to do that. So May the Force be with them!

Assassination is political violence So too is... Police violence Poverty Ecological destruction Censorship Demonization of sexual and gender minorities State sponsored religion Anti-intellectualism Gutting health care Genocide This is all political violence

See you at ThunderCon this weekend! So excited to be doing another @trektivism.bsky.social panel on Saturday. Also doing a #SciComm panel Sunday about Comet 3I/Atlas and the frenzy of both science and pseudo science surrounding its passage through our solar system. #space #TREKtivism

this is true and i wish there was a good alternative model for digital video that wasn't owned by google
