5th Annual Yule Log Charity Marathon for Starlight Children’s Foundation is going on today through Saturday @ Twitch.TV/NoahOm Drop on by to hang out, spread the word, & if financially able, consider a donation. RT’s appreciated! @uselesstraffic.bsky.social @savageboredom.bsky.social

My iPhone misinterpreted an event on my calendar & put this in notifications: “Call in to Dentist appointment?” Perhaps technology will make that possible one day—but unfortunately for me, not today.

I'm still very much hoping to eventually see a #StarTrekLegacy TV series, picking up the post-#StarTrekPicard storyline with the crew of the Enterprise-G in the early 25th century. My guess is that Paramount+ isn't yet ready to commit to another series while the streaming service wars are ongoing.

I want to encourage my friend @bbgossip.bsky.social & the many, many people in the #BigBrother fanbase who follow his Twitter account to move to a different social platform—one with reasonable content moderation policies that actively guard against hate & misinformation. Shall we try Bluesky?

Watching the #BB25 premiere’s “disappear into the nether region” comp is like watching paint dry. How could Grodner green-light such a visually boring comp? Dull comps that drag on & on is another issue that plagues these live shows.

I’m giving Big Brother (the USA edition on CBS) another try, watching the #BB25 season premiere. Two problems with this first competition: 1. Julie’s verbal instructions take too long, an issue that plagues live shows. 2. The comp set is waaaay too visually busy. Actually makes viewing harder.

Tuned in late to the #BB25 premiere, just in time to see the “time laser” bit. What caught my attention is that Julie’s delivery of the multiverse twist instructions would actually sound better with reactions from a live audience. Pandemic is over … Why no in-studio audience? @bbgossip.bsky.social

I didn't realize until the season 2 premiere of #StarTrekStrangeNewWorlds that Star Trek is rebooting the Klingons again—restoring them, actually. That #StarTrekDiscovery reimagined them wasn't a problem for me, but they went way too far. https://www.giantfreakinrobot.com/ent/star-trek-klingon.html

"The Bachelor" senior citizen edition? Older actors are fantastic on scripted shows (see #StarTrekPicard) … but reality TV? This show will fail, even if it shouldn't. Viewers expect "young & hot" people on reality TV. https://www.cnn.com/2023/05/17/entertainment/bachelor-senior-edition/index.html

Anyone know if Paramount (the studio) and/or Alex Kurtzman (who oversees the #StarTrek franchise) is here on Bluesky yet? Let's keep encouraging them to green-light a full #StarTrekLegacy TV series. Spoilers: https://screenrant.com/15-star-trek-legacy-stories-picard-already-set-up/

It took a year after Pike appeared in #StarTrekDiscovery for Paramount to announce #StarTrekStrangeNewWorlds … so a green-light for #StarTrekLegacy might take as long. But @jerilryan.bsky.social & crew deserves it! Spoilers: https://screenrant.com/star-trek-legacy-cast-story-release-date-updates/

Hello, world! Like many people, I'm hoping that this might serve as the place to gather, especially for those of us who just don't like the chaos happening over in the bird app.
