Critical support for the collection of Dims, Ghosts, and Gimmees just trying to make a better life for themselves.
They were part of the ship’s frame of reference. This applies to standard physics but is explicitly true if there’s a warp bubble around the ship.
Now who can argue with that? I think we’re all indebted to TheFerrango for clearly stating what needed to be said. I’m particulary glad that these lovely children were here today to hear that speech. Not only was it authentic Star Trek technobabble, it expressed a courage little seen in this day and age.
Yeah. Commits going right to prod makes my skin crawl.
Took me a while to track it down, but I think this is the book to which you were referring.

I make no cleans about the stances of this artist; I just saw this strip years ago.
Alan Tudyk would have been a good Stamets, but Anthony Rapp has been perfection.
And in strange memory caches, even death may die.
The dominance is in service to private profits. They keep telling about “America and it’s interests” where the “interests” involved are profits.
Time for testing then 😊
Is there an option for being Evil Overlord List compliant?
Let’s not put Descartes before the horse.
The left wing of the right wing. Sounds right.
Ohhh, that touched a deep well of hatred. My first engineering job was full stack and we had a highly modified Bootstrap front end. I’d build the thing they wanted, and the designers would get looped in for QA and insist that various pieces had to look like their little wireframe down to the pixel. I mean look, it’s easy right?
I asked why they are insisting on constantly going against the standards that had been adopted company-wide. Did it stop? Why no! Did I get a suit down with my boss? Why yes!
He is/was a cool guy and saw my perspective but also gave me precious advice on how to survive.
A lot of my head canon around this and the notable lack of automation prevalent in Starfleet: it’s a futuristic, post-scarcity jobs program. Yes, it’s about exploration and rendering assistance and all that. But it gives people something to do, a way to serve the whole. Picard said as much to Geordi when Scotty was aboard. I’ve of the many things Starfleet does is give people a sense of usefulness.
Insert joker eating popcorn gif here.
I always got the impression that the medical staff doubled as life science experts and that was the reason for the blue.
Also uses ableist language.
Here’s one: Trading cards are something you own. Skins are limited to a game you’re licensing.
Here’s another: trading cards are portable; they can be put in a collection for display, put in a safety deposit box, etc. When CS goes, all the skins go with it.
Another minor one: baseball cards are informational, the skins are cosmetic only.
Mind you, I think both are forms of unregulated gambling and trading cards as well as loot boxes should have better societal scrutiny, but they aren’t identical.
