If you pay for anything Harry Potter-related, if you take part in anything Harry Potter-related, you are sending money to the person who does this and uses the money to pay legal costs for bigots just like her. She is a vile, sick, dangerous misery. A hollow mess who will leave a putrid legacy.

some bullshit

Missing Academy this week.

Here are two shots of the fully re-assembled USS Athena, joining the rest of the fleet in orbit of Betazed at the end of #StarfleetAcademy's season 2 finale "Rubincon". I cannot wait to get a model of this ship! :-)

Saturn-class starship concept by Ryan Denning, STAR TREK: DISCOVERY (2020)

I honestly prefer E-E’s fate gets told in a less comedic setting, but I will trust the writers on this one for now 🤔

Unused USS Discovery refit design by Ryan Denning, STAR TREK: DISCOVERY (2020) "Originally the refit concept included bandage like repairs with almost biological properties. There was also the idea of keeping parts as is but replacing zones with new tech (the interior sets would remain the same)."

Up to now, the Starfleet ships have been fairly uniform or at least designed with a theme, seeming to convey a sense of uniformity. "We're the Federation, look how united we are." The 32nd century fleet seems to say "We've embraced our diversity." Unless im mistaken, I really dig that.

Robert McCall (1979)

This was a beautiful shot that very much reminded me of the 2009 film. You can almost hear Giacchino's theme…

Nobody, and I mean NOBODY brands like Starfleet.

Made some cute icons for a thing, but may not end up using them.

Here is a little of "Emissary" in motion - remember the upload to socials eats a lot of the image quality - but you get the idea. Even at this stage of the pipeline its night and day compared to the existing DVD! Will get to see #DS9 regularly on an OLED and not throw up!

Holly Hunter as Captain Nahla Ake in "300th Night", STAR TREK: STARFLEET ACADEMY (2026)

paused my PIC rewatch for Foundation and so not mad about it

Smolly Hunter

there are so few (new) VFX shots in this movie but they always make such an impact

Holly Hunter so smol

Manual IVTC done on Emissary the Star Trek #DS9 Pilot. Thats every single frame manually looked at (160K+) frames cadence processed, issues noted on select ones to fix later on in the process so things like dust, hair, laserdisc dropouts and other production issues. Here are pics from pre upscale

I love popping an edible and watching TMP

TNG Sub Rosa candle concept art by Sternbach Its that candle...

I love it when Star Trek lets its characters be messy and flawed, but man I cannot get myself to sympathize with Tarima. pretty sure the writers want me to?

Concept to episode VOY 6x20 Good Shephard

Filming TMP

Karim Diané as Jay-Den Kraag in "Ko’Zeine", STAR TREK: STARFLEET ACADEMY (2026)

TIL that this Romulan emblem wasn't designed by the TNG art department but was outsourced to designer and illustrator Monte Thrasher. Mike Okuda refined it into the final version. /1

I can't believe I slept on Foundation

Recreations of four official Star Trek logos that never were. The last two were featured in a 1994 Playmates catalogue.

There are some Star Trek fans weirdly obsessed with “decorum” and they really fixate on how Holly Hunter sits in the captain’s chair on STARFLEET ACADEMY. One guy left a comment on the official FB whining about it and so Captain Janeway herself responded to drop the hammer

Some of the early USS Cerritos concept art was pretty wild.

Holly Hunter as Captain Nahla Ake in "Kids These Days", STAR TREK: STARFLEET ACADEMY (2026)

making my way through Picard again and I forgot about this real high point in the franchise

You guys see it right????

every so often we get something really special and moving and just yeah, I'm preaching to the choir here but this was wonderful. can we please dispense with the commentary on modern Trek the risk of delving too deep into past lore? this episode shows it can be used to incredible effect

“But you'll also be getting an education of a different kind aboard this vessel, the Athena, named for the goddess of wisdom.” — Nahla Ake

I appreciate that Starfleet Academy has a little something for everybody, I haven't cared that much about the cadets' stories but I'm here for Holly Hunter and the faculty

Loving the FLW game inspiration. I had the pleasure of being able to tour Hollyhock in Hollywood 11 years ago.

Video posted by Matthew Jarmola-Clark "Science 1 LCARS graphic from TNG: "A Matter of Perspective". This is one of the animated backlit displays that used a spinning polarised light disc and special filters in the graphics to give the appearance of movement, as was common on the TNG sets."

Some alt text for you: Production Designer Matthew Davies on the Athena: "The ship itself has always been a major character of any STAR TREK franchise; and with the help of Concept Designer Lee Fitzgerald, we based her fluted nacelle covers on the mythical wings of our goddess Athena."

The nurses are pissed

I really don't think anyone following me here needs to be told this, but if you support HIM, ICE, or the rest of the Nazi, Fascist administration at this stage, you're a collaborator. And if you pretend nothing is happening because it doesn't affect you, you're not much better. #FuckICE

stop saying they're out of control, they're doing exactly what they set out to do

Fuck ICE.

if it wasn't gonna be the USS Picard (which would've meant more) and they were intent on nostalgia on top of nostalgia, I think they should've refit the Enterprise-D to be the G

I swear, this is the SciFi interpretation of Aretha Franklin walking on stage, throwing off her cape, and then gliding to the piano to start her first song.

I will continue to defend and critique PIC season 1 until I die
