a few years ago, i made a flowchart for my partner in order to convince them to leave a pathfinder group that was actively making their life worse. today i revised my original chart to convince a friend to leave her d&d group that is actively making her life worse.
here is the chart. i promise its utility is not only with tabletop RPGs but it does have a high hit rate for those
I feel this has wider application
He was a very attractive man, Robert Beltran. kind and funny and a wonderful guy
Kate Mulgrew
I usually find KM to be really articulate but I have no idea what sheās getting at in this clip. Itās like she has blinders on or something when it comes to JC š š š
KM is extremely articulate... When she knows what she's talking about. Lol in this case she doesn't.
This is just my opinion and everyone is free to disagree but I honestly think KM simply has no clue how JC came across on the screen because she simply never watched the show. What she remembers as her intentions when acting is not the same as what we see on the screen.
Whenever KM gets questions about JC she usually either dodges them, changes the subject or recycles the same answer that she was the first female captain it would simply not do yada yada yada etc. (Which, I think, it was a good decision at the time but we're here 30 years later, this answer became redundant at least decade ago) or, when pushed, really and truly she BS her way through the question with her usual elegance and panache in a way that you have no idea what she just answered.
But again, I think she simply never watched Voy and doesn't understand why fans are so insistent about it. I also don't think she cares much for JC, she cares about Janeway, Star Trek and it's wider message but JC she simply does not care. She cares about her fans, bless her, and she's always so lovely which is why when asked about JC she will never say: frankly, my dear... Idgaf
I'm not saying she *has* to watch Voy but it would help her see the fans' perspective, that no we did not make shit up, YOU put it out there.
Correct. 10/10 no notes. Nailed it. Kate Mulgrew has never watched Voyager, and it has become unambiguously clear in recent years that almost all of her shittiest takes about the show, and about JC in particular, stem from the fact that her only frame of reference is her acting choices.
In contrast:
When they started the Delta Flyers project, Robbie and Garrett also only had their own acting choices as a frame of reference. And made sarcastic comments in some of their earliest episodes about how they've heard that some people interpret JC as having a thing. Then they watched their way through the series, and soon became the biggest shippers out there. To the point where their interpretation of episodes like "Shattered" was even more romantic than those of us who have been shipping JC for thirty years.
Kate was doing her usual "I didn't put a relationship there and therefore it does not exist" act when she was promoting season 2 of Star Trek Prodigy. Then they SAT HER DOWN AND FORCED HER TO WATCH AN EPISODE OF IT FOR THE FIRST TIME EVER prior to a panel. That episode was "Cracked Mirror," my favorite of the series. And her tune in interviews immediately changed to swoon about the tenderness of their relationship and "how deeply they love each other."
At the end of the day, Kate has the right to never watch her own work. And Star Trek admittedly doesn't play well with that attitude because we are pretty hardcore when it comes to fans seeking Word of God confirmation about minutiae. But I think we should all move on from treating Kate Mulgrew's word as gospel when it comes to JC, since she literally has never seen what we have.
She never seen what we have and also, I feel like part of her dislike of JC comes from the fact that because of the way she gets asked questions about JC by fans, she thinks the focus here is on smut and she gets annoyed and sees that relationship as a threat to Janeway's legacy - again first female captain, that joke about new meaning of red alert etc.
She doesn't see what we see.
She doesn't see that in 2025, there is no threat to Janeway's legacy. In fact, Janeway relationship with Chakotay would enrich Janeway's legacy because it would show that smart women in high leadership positions can have a successful romantic relationship with men who don't perceive their leadership as threat to their masculinity but fully supports her in her role.
But we never gonna get that because KM thinks all we want is for Janeway and Chakotay to bang. š
Agreeing with all of you!!
Also it's time for her to learn that loving a man doesn't make a woman weak
She can want Chakotay (his support etc) , doesn't make her a damsel in distress. Doesn't mean she needs him to be saved.
Like girl since when are you weak for wanting someone's comfort? Admitting that actually makes you (look) stronger!!!!
Of all of this, I agree. A big part of why she never watched Voyager is that her sons have never seen it because they resent that it took their mother away from them. Remember, she was a single mother at the time, and the boys were very young. So, because of the resentment, itās likely she never bothered.
As @janegreygardens mentioned, she now has two grand babies, and has offhandedly mentioned watching Prodigy with the older one. (Sheās 2 or 3 at this point, still very young) and said that watching Cracked Mirror was the first time sheād seen a fully completed episode.
And she was enamored by JCās relationship and how deeply they love each other. This was a couple weeks after she told a little one at a German con that yes, Kathryn was in love with Chakotay.
Hell, for someone who has really never seen their on-screen interplay, she still (and has literally always) described what they have in a deeply moving and profound way. āDeeper than friendship and deeper than love.ā Unconditionally loving soulmates is what she is describing.
They are basically the het version of Kirk and Spock and this is why I frequently compare the two relationships because theyāre quite simply the same thing. The same deeper then friendship and deeper then love unconditional love. Janeway is the Kirk in the relationship, Chakotay is Spock.
Now think about it. Yes, I am a K/S shipper. These kinds of soul deep romances are my jam and media rarely does them right. But KS and JC are both pure perfection. Because theyāre so intensely beautiful.
Despite literally everything against them.
I've been stuck on the ep where seven falls in love with chakotay for about 8 months bc it's so insane to me. I would be less disturbed if they had neelix shack up w tuvok. like they turned my autistic icon into 'just a girl'. they turned my obsessive first officer into a loser. the way janeway must have thrown up at this happening
The way we all threw up at that happening.
THE CASUALNESS OF THAT COLLIE SLIPPING RIGHT OUT OF THEIR COLLAR. That dude is a Willing Participant of this walk and by god everyone else is going to follow the RULES.
im a fan of the moment where the husky is like 'wait you're not authorized to do that' and the collie is like 'THE FUCK IM NOT'
unstoppable force (border collie) vs immovable object (husky)
tumblrās code may change but no notes ghost stays the same
Oh thank god
imagine the shit storm when tumblr finally becomes so dysfunctional that this postās total notes is finally revealed
In case anyoneās curious about what happened to this post, it has to do with how we tally up notes. Likes and reblogs always add to the note count of the root post (the OP). However, the note count relies on the previous value of the root post before adding more notes to it.
Normally when you delete a post, itās gone, but not gone gone. Just deleted from public never to be seen again. The database entry is still there, just inaccessible.
This post, however, the root post is just gone. Gone gone. Gone forever. Everything attached to it is still there, but since the root post is hard deleted (something that requires manual manipulation of the database), when the note counter tries to add notes to it, it gets nil to start with.
So it throws every new note into the void. Goodbye forever, notes.
Iām not sure if weāll ever know the real number of notes on this post.
the real question is how and why the fuck did someone manually hard delete no notes ghostās root post
Do not vote on this poll, have it have more notes than votes.

GETĀ TOĀ KNOWĀ MEĀ ā° [10/10] Female Characters ā¤·Ā Lorelai Gilmore
Hey, I can be flexible. I can. As long as everything is exactly the way I want it, I'm totally flexible.
25 YEARS OF GILMORE GIRLS: day one - favorite lead character
Ironically, hard light is bad for recording sexy time.
It will highlight every pore, every vein, every wrinkle on your nutsack.
One day I will end this ring light fad. It is my ultimate side quest.
It seems my lighting advice has given people a mistaken impression...
These outtakes where the flash didn't go off are also AI generated.
I like this spooky dutch angle one.
I was just starting to learn flash and I didn't have all the equipment I needed. Since corgis are quite short, I had to put the lighting on the ground. The off camera flash was on a tipped over lightstand with a shoot-through umbrella to diffuse the light.
But I had no wireless triggers. And the only other way to trigger a flash, is with another flash. So I used the on-camera pop up flash to trigger the main flash.
But I had two issues.
First, I did not want that dinky on camera flash affecting my picture.
Second, triggering a flash with a flash is best done indoors. The flash will bounce all around the room and eventually hit the sensor so the main flash triggers. When you are outdoors, there is no bouncing.
SO... I took a little handheld makeup mirror and angled it toward my main flash. This blocked the dinky pop up flash and sent the beam of light towards the main flash to trigger it.
I was lying on the wet morning grass, holding a camera in one hand, a mirror in the other, trying to aim the mirror exactly toward the main flash, making crazy noises to get Otis's attention, and trying to get the focus point on his face so I didn't get a blurry photo. Also, Otis was much more interested in sniffing things than posing for a photo.
Here is an overhead view that might help explain.
I await all of your comments saying my amazing drawring is clearly AI generated.
Only 30% of the time did the flash actually go off. Aiming the mirror was tricky and I was doing like 8 things at once. I wasn't even sure I got the photo I wanted. But when I came back to the computer there was one that stood out and it is one of my favorites I've ever taken.
It was the best combination of monumental effort, great discomfort, perfect foggy sunrise light, and just pure luck.
Unfortunately, people like me who use advanced sculpting light techniques are getting accused of using AI more and more. Not really sure what to do about itāother than show the 30 awful photos it took to get the good one.
My 80s sunglasses photo and spoon photo get called out the most.
But it's just good old fashioned gradient lighting which has been used in product photography since the days of film.
So, no need to be suspicious.
Photography like sirfrogsworth's is what the fucken AIs were TRAINED on.
Having your work stolen and used to train an ai and then having your work accused of being made using that ai would probably cause me to make international headlines

Commander Pelia
Am I the only one who wants to see Pelia in the post-TNG era? Passing through DS9. Mentoring the kids on Prodigy. Getting assigned to inter dimensional operations under Captain Freeman?
She could show up on Starfleet Academy, 900 years isn't long to her!
I still love this website so much because it feels like the last connection we have to an internet that doesnāt exist anymore like I can come on here and scroll through posts that are literally just funny or beautiful or interesting with no intention to sell me something or influence me we are all just here for a laugh. Nothing is just for laughs anymore EXCEPT tumblr dot com
always momentsĀ [10/?] ā¤·Ā 4.16Ā ā āLinchpinā
My headcanon is that Janeway and Chakotay felt mutual attraction and desire from the moment they met on the bridge. And I also have another headcanon, based on Caretaker's original script, where Chakotay tells her he's admired her for a long time, that this admiration wasn't just professional, but also that he had a crush on her, but that until then he probably considered her so unattainable that it didn't become a true passion until they met on Voyager. But when Chakotay met her in person and saw that, besides being beautiful and hot, she was also an excellent captain and a person of exceptional character, he fell instantly in love. It was like a spark had been thrown into a bomb. Total explosion. And she was likeā¦ "Wait a minute, the leader of the Maquis is hot and kind? And I kind of want to have sex with him??" So Chakotay behaves like everyone does when they want to win someone over. He worries about the image he would project to her.
Canon Janeway: Letās see if we can solve this issue with some diplomacy. And maybe some manipulation.
Fanon Janeway: If you donāt do what I say right now Iām going to kill everyone in this room and then myself.
