Nichelle Nichols (December 28, 1932 - )

[rhyfeddu-partyofone-deactivated]

“Uhura never had another name during the series. One of the fan writers wrote “Upenda” - which means “peace” in Swahili, I understand — not officially, but in some of their fan writings. And it sort of took hold. But when they were going to do the official history of Star Trek in a published book, the writer called Gene and asked him was “Uhura” her first name or her last name? Gene said, “Well, Nichelle and I never decided.” We always leaned towards it being her last name because it’s taken from the Swahili “uhuru” which means freedom. So it would sort of be like the same as “Freeman.” So he said, “You can make it her last name.” The writer said, “What about her first name? I’ve come up with one in Swahili. It’s Nyota.” Gene said, “I can’t give you that permission because Nichelle and I named her together, and she has rights to that, so you’ll have to call her and get her permission.” So he gave him my number, and he called me and I laughed and was delighted. He said, “I have a name and it’s Nyota.” I said, “That’s quite beautiful. What does it mean?” He said, “It means ‘star’.” I said, “You can have my permission!” So I have since said that her name is Nyota Upenda Uhura, which would mean a free-floating star: “star of freedom and peace”. I like that.”    — NICHELLE NICHOLS

For all the many flaws of the tagging system on this hellsite, it is so perfect for Sending Home. A man's not dead while his name is still spoken, and what are the tags but the Overhead of tumblr? They aren't the posts themselves, but they are metacommentary on posts, notes to friends, info to be passed on. The message has been logged and is continuing to be sent on. GNU

Terry Pratchet was really good at being whimsical without being flippant. He'd come up with the goofiest, most ridiculous shit you ever heard of but with serious narrative weight the whole time.

[books-bread-and-brigandage]

The thing iswhat ever goofy wimsy he put up he comitted to 100% Your topic may not be serous, but you have to take it serously, follow the threads to their ends, see the links and things.

Fantasy works best when you take it seriously (it can also become a lot funnier, but that’s another story).

he would do numbers on here

[fieldtomatoes]

this is back in my notes and I love the number of people in the rbs who think that by “here” I meant “tumblr” and that ofc abed would do numbers bc he’s autistic and gay and into various tv shows but what EYE meant by “here” was “mashblr”, specifically “the corner of mashblr where we understand that the CBS war dramedy M*A*S*H (1972-1983) exists in a timeloop”

i dont like when shane is characterized as being a color coded spreadsheet super organized and neat guy. that's not him. he's in a pressure cooker of his own design but he pays people to do the admin for him. he pays for an interior designer and a stylist and a perfectly balanced meal delivery service. his mom manages his calendar. shane wants so badly to outsource control to someone else who can tell him how to be shane hollander. he does not have a fucking color coded spreadsheet

Harrowhark Nonagesimus would be soo good with computers if they were widespread in Dominicus. I will not hear out any "but she would be tech illiterate..." arguments. She is powered by spite and her imaginary corpse friend, she would learn C++ in two days if it meant being better than those who won't. She would love to ban Gideon off the tlt universe internet with a single fucking click, and she is willing to learn 10 programming languages just to do it in increasingly surreal and comical means. She would enjoy making the machine do exactly what she wants because she needs that extra bit of control, she would invent malware that summons skeletons in your room to spread the ninth house vibes across dominicus.
