NO STOP EVERYONE!! DO NOT DO THIS. THIS WILL NOT SAVE A PERSON’S LIFE. YOU WILL GET THEIR BLOGS TERMINATED. AND TRUST ME THAT WILL HAVE A MUCH MORE WORSE EFFECT ON THEM.
TUMBLR WILL NOT HELP THEM. THEY WILL TERMINATE THOSE BLOGS AND THEY WILL SHOW NO MERCY.
DO WHAT YOU CAN TO REACH OUT TO THEM INSTEAD, COMFORT THEM IF YOU CAN. JUST WHATEVER YOU DO
DO.
NOT.
REPORT.
It’s out!
happy valentine’s day

Amok Time premiered 58 years ago today!!!
I remember a lot of people making fun of the TNG-era phaser designs, but I think (intentionally or not) they kind of betray the Federation in that era having a similar mindset as the Pierson’s Puppeteers from Larry Niven’s Ringworld.
“Oh no, we have no weapons. Just multi-function tools that *could* be used as weapons. In an emergency.”
Roddenberry’s aversion to TNG Starfleet being “too military” but wanting to keep it an action show kind of laid the groundwork for the way DS9 showed that other factions in the Alpha Quadrant find the UFP very suspicious.
the thing about talking to people about doctor who irl is that i'm like so the time lords are eldritch inhuman entities who hardwired themselves into the fabric of the universe and can manipulate the laws of physics via Maths (a type of magic, basically). they are time lords because they literally created and govern the laws of time and whilst their physical bodies are entirely human in practice they follow cartoon logic. and they're like ummm what did you just say about david tennant
love it when he makes that face
upset that i do not live on a noisy spaceship right now...
what do you mean there is no rhythmic beeping and booping? like none at all? not even ONE shiney multicolored button? what could i possibly do with my time if i can not press huge buttons and listen to the engine hum???
i think this exact thing almost every day
First of five phasers has been completed! I still need to paint the emitter silver and fiddle with the wires a bit, but its done and it works and doesnt break!

Working on the emitters. I found these little plastic fittings in a box of plumbing stuff. They’re the perfect size and look good once i sanded them round.

This is just a reminder that when Sir Terry Pratchett was knighted, he dug up his own iron ore, learned to smelt, smelted it, added meteorite iron, learned to forge, and forged himself a starmetal sword. As you do.
And then he put it away somewhere safe so he wouldn’t violate any UK knife laws.
The blade shape was Terry’s preference, obviously, but I’ve always regretted never asking him why he went for this distinctly Dark Age look…
…rather than the traditional “Knight’s sword” (i.e. a cross-hilted arming sword.)
For all I know it might have been simple practicality: after discussing designs, there was already enough smelted iron ore and meteorite bits for the smaller one, and no need to go digging for more… :->
Terry’s sword is very like a Viking type called a “maekir”, which was more pointed-for-stabbing than the round-tipped-for-cutting “svaerd”. This repro, based on a find in Kragehul Bog, Denmark, was made in about 2003 by Randal Graham.
Some sources suggest the pointiness was actually a result of centuries of corrosion, but other sources suggest they were made that way.
YMMV. Theirs certainly does.
