42 Days until Strange New Worlds, people!!

On this day one year ago I was having fun at my first Trek convention. Terry Matalas was so much fun to meet and really needs to be put in charge of some more Trek shows. 💙

The Utah State Legislature banned pride flags on government buildings so the Salt Lake City government lit City Hall up in Pride Colors ☠️

President Trump said he will continue to restrict The Associated Press’ access to his events and news conferences until the outlet goes along with his renaming of the Gulf of Mexico in its reports. He acknowledged that the move was a presidential retaliation against AP's editorial policy.

👀 "If no lawyer within earshot of the President is willing to give him that advice, then I expect you will eventually find someone who is enough of a fool, or enough of a coward, to file your motion. But it was never going to be me." -- AUSA Hagan Scotten, SDNY.

From the Administration that said, "More Power to the States!" www.nbcchicago.com/news/politic...

The men carrying out Musk's coup are Akash Bobba, Edward Coristine, Luke Farritor, Gautier Cole Killian, Gavin Kliger, and Ethan Shaotran. Make them famous. And, eventually, when possible, arrest them and charge them with multiple felonies. www.wired.com/story/elon-m...

FINALLY. Someone Is actually doing journalism. #musktakeover

CNN upped the ante on their paywall. You now have a limited number of articles. There are places I will pay, but sorry, @cnn.com, you aren't that good at what you do for that.

If you're struggling financially due to government fuckery or for any reason really and you need infant formula talk to your pediatrician we can hook you up and don't like to ask questions.

We are not only bad neighbors and sorry excuses for human beings, but just begging for another MAJOR worldwide AIDS crisis and cases to rise. Yes, in the the USA, too. Actions have consequences. Where is the logic?

Do any of you have an address where I can send Pete Hegseth a bottle of champagne to congratulate him on his confirmation? Thanks in advance.

He was so much better looking then.

He just raised the price of your prescription medication. No word on the eggs yet.

Dear members of the press, Can one of you, PLEASE just ONE: When Trump says we deleted all the evidence, please for the love of God, push back. The evidence is all here: www.govinfo.gov/collection/j...

Pin this, save it, we’ll need it. “When a prison camp opens in your town…when a DREAMer is disappeared from your classroom…when the President destroys what’s left of the Constitution…They will all say they didn’t know this was coming. And I want the American people to know that they did.” AOC 🔥🎯

Last year I started going to Star Trek conventions for the first time despite being a fan for *coughs* years. We're smiling because it's not November yet. Also, go see him in concert.

We're back to the part where I can't even watch the news... So glad SNW is coming up and The Orville got a fourth season. And I do love cycling through DS9 on repeat. I could use some recommendations for new (& new to me) stuff.

WTAF. The Washington Post is now telling stories. At least they are being transparent about it.

THANK YOU!

Happy 30th to #StarTrekVoyager — and all #UPN too. Here’s the premiere screening program signed a few nights earlier by the on-camera folks😄. ‘Twas so exciting a #StarTrek was launching a new network, and one led by a female captain no less. AND the first of two I would be upclose to see birthed! 🖖

President Biden warned that an "oligarchy" of the ultrawealthy was emerging in America, sounding the alarm about unchecked power as he gave a farewell speech to the U.S. just days before he surrenders office to a man he disdains.

Mother Nature says it's a cold day in Hell on Monday...

Really proud of my friend Brendan Farrington for making his fight with United Health Care to get his prescribed cancer treatments public. It shouldn't take this much for them to do the right thing.

Guess which ‘one’ hasn’t figured it out yet?! 👇 Just one guess. 🇺🇸

Land doesn’t vote. Stop pretending it does.

Zuc's gone and done it. I have to fire FB now too?

Keep trans folx safe.

I made some people on Facebook very angry by suggesting we stop encouraging the people (and groups that enable) who use AI & other photo manipulation techniques to make non-consensual and over-sexualized images of people (who we claim to be fans of) and then disseminate them.

I had to physically grab (male) opposing counsel's hand and remove it from my colleague's computer as I was setting up courtroom AV for him today, because apparently my words aren't enough to get him to leave our things alone. If you can't respectfully coexist I will embarrass you.

In my Anthony Rapp fandom era... Went down the loveliest rabbit hole today. (Saw this and more performed live in Chicago at a Trek convention this year. 15/10 recommend.) youtu.be/3HcIWM0DHPQ?...

Stolen from FB and sharing here so you can catch the ear-worm too.

All of this.

Education matters

Nothing but Blue Skies... youtu.be/u4VoBUWFAKQ?...

Great to see the first signs of making America healthy again 😂

That cancelled show you never stop thinking about.

🚨 HEY EVERYONE! 🚨 I figured we can have some fun as I get settled over here… so let’s do it! I’ve got some cool signed stuff from the amazing projects I’ve worked on. STAR TREK, TROLLHUNTERS, more. Follow me and give this a repost/comment below. I’ll pick a winner at random from the comments!

Why is everyone so surprised that Trump is acting like himself? I consider myself rather politically naive, but how could you be in this deep and not realize Trump & the GOP in general would be pro-Israel? www.reuters.com/world/us/mus...
