A child's bedroom furnished entirely with those aesthetic beige instagram mom sad beige wooden toys for sad beige organic children, including a little ball pit in all the shades of brown, white, grey, beige and greige, but the owner doesn't have kids. It's all for the cats.

"They can't tell because they're colourblind", the owner explains, "and also very dumb."

Children’s sad beige room but the rest of the house is very colorful and eclectic. That’e just the kind of thing the kid likes and their parents respect that

if we agreed being a virgin or single doesnt make you a failure or a loser then we need to apply the same to not having friends

Does anyone else just find it SO tragic that the weird route, aka the one route in the game that will hurt those that Susie cares about the most, is only possible because of Susie? The weird route would never have been possible if Susie just allowed us to choose whether to go with her or Ralsei in the city segment of the cyber world, instead of forcing Ralsei to come with her and leave us all alone with Noelle

watching a scene with a fav character can be so humiliating sometimes. like yes i'm watching this scene with this character because i want to see the character. yes i've paused it multiple times because i got too excited. before the character fully entered the screen even. guhhhh

being obsessed with ones OCs is fucked as hell. How am I supposed to find random art of them if they only exist in my head,,

How BIG is the Klingon Bird of Prey?

First introduced in Star Trek III: The Search For Spock and seen in nearly every iteration of Trek since, the Klingon Bird of Prey is iconic. But how big is she? This is complicated by her appearing at several different sizes throughout the same movie, let alone through the franchise.

With the classic movie Enterprise (305m)

With the Next Gen Enterprise (625m) and Romulan B-Type Warbird (1353m)

Lawrence Miller's 1985 K'tara-class blueprints say she's 168 feet long, which is only 51.2 meters (would not fit whales)

The official Haynes Klingon Manual (2012) gives her overall length as 456 feet/139 meters (would fit whales)

The Star Trek Encyclopedia tried to account for the various on-screen size discrepancies by saying there were in fact at least two differently sized versions of the Klingon Bird of Prey which were externally identual. The B'rel class was the smaller one, and K'vort class the bigger.

The Enterprise crew standing on the sinking HMS Bounty, which is so tiny in this shot I'm not sure the bridge would fit inside. Definitely would not fit whales.

The real life reason for the upscale in TNG-era Trek was budget. The model was super detailed and big screen ILM quality, so when they needed a big Klingon ship, they just reused the Bird of Prey model and kept the wings up (which moved a lot in STIII and IV) to make it look slightly different instead of building something else.

Later they could afford to build the Vor'cha Klingon Attack Cruiser model and switched over to that for all "big" Klingon ship needs until "All Good Things" and DS9 had the Neg'var model (which one time grew to like five kilometers in length, but that's another story!)

And maybe I'm massively overthinking a franchise where this bridge in STIII

Suddenly becomes this bridge in STIV

With zero explanation🤷‍♂️

Star Trek Online came up with this handy chart showing how many whales fit into different versions of the Klingon Bird of Prey😂
