Boldly Gone

had a dream last night that the hot new trek ship taking over tumblr was Julian/Janeway. 90% of the fan works were epistolary fic where Julian gets really into the idea of the doomed mission of voyager and sends Janeway fanmail once they re-establish contact, which rapidly turns into a steamy long-distance romance that brings them both much needed distraction from their respective spirals into depression and gives fans free reign to write Janeway going full cougar. and it was so hugely popular in my dream like every third post on the dash was about them

#I think once a month Star Trek fans should randomly generate a pairing from all available characters #and spend that month posting nothing but that pairing #we could create some truly cursed shit #but in amongst that shit would be some true diamonds

i agree and i made a generator! if someone wants to do something with this please be my guest 🤗 https://perchance.org/trekrarepairs

“And now we'll get what we want: a burger from the Five Guys restaurant. And if your conscience is bothering you, you should soothe it with the knowledge that you may have just saved my entire weekend. And all it cost was one shuttle trip, $13.99, and the diet of one Starfleet officer. I don't know about you, but I'd call that a bargain.”

The other day, a mutual contacted me to share that they've begun learning sign language & that my designs that include ASL was part of their inspiration. It was the best news. Inclusivity, that's the mission.

Cheers, friend. 🥃🖖🏻

Starfleet Academy: The Life of the Stars

team_karim Meet Star Trek’s first gay Klingon: Jay-Den Kraag. I won’t pretend that I wasn’t scared to take on this role. Part of me still is. Not because of the character himself, but because I knew the reaction that could come with it. I knew there would be people who would blur the line between who I play on screen and who I am in real life, and that much of that response would be rooted in homophobia, racism, bigotry. I knew that by stepping into this role, a lot of that heat would come directly to me. But what matters more is this: over the past few weeks since this show premiered, I’ve received countless messages from LGBTQ+ people around the world… people who feel seen, validated, and inspired by Jay-Den. Those messages outweigh every bit of negativity. Every single time. From its very first episode nearly 60 years ago, Gene Roddenberry’s vision was never about preserving the familiar. He imagined a future that expanded who gets to be seen, heard, and valued. A future where diversity isn’t merely tolerated, but celebrated. Jay-Den doesn’t exist outside of that tradition. He exists because of it. “Infinite Diversity in Infinite Combinations” isn’t just a catchy phrase Roddenberry tossed around. I believe he truly meant it. Episode 7 of @StarTrek #StarfleetAcademy is out now, streaming only on @ParamountPlus. Feeling incredibly lucky to be part of a show that still believes in saying something meaningful.

Went to the library and found this ds9 book. I think the Garashir girlies will like this part I randomly turned to

Fell asleep on the couch and had a dream about a tng episode where Picard and Q were forced to live together, and Q complained about hair in the shower drain and he blamed Picard and Picard was like "I am bald" in a deadpan voice

I have a theory:

Starfleet Academy's interior is based on/inspired by Canadian architect Raymond Moriyama's beautiful design of the Toronto Reference Library.

We know SFA was filmed in TO, and it seems to fit-- right down to the brick coloured carpets and rounded 60s/70s era curves.

star trek gave me something very important last night, and that was a break.

there are no words to explain the horrors that are circling us right now-politically, socially, mentally. each news story that has come out recently has beaten me down. i feel like every time i open my phone up i receive a new blow to the head. but watching the latest starfleet academy episode let me surround myself in a universe full of hope. a universe where love is the forefront, and is represented through a diverse group of people that have absolutely, profoundly, inspired others. i was immersed in the optimistic embrace of star trek and i felt moved.

star trek, i shall love you forever.

Starfleet Academy, you officially have my heart and soul.

screaming, crying, throwing up glitter.

Tawny Newsome, you brilliant, wonderful human being. what a beautiful, beautiful, beautiful tribute to Benjamin Sisko.

i loved getting to see SAM determine for herself who she is and what being the emissary to her people will mean to her. i loved the Sisko storybook, the little baseball paraphernalia stand in the museum, the suit and the in-depth examination of Sisko's character and legacy. i loved SAM getting to read Anslem and the entire conversation between her and Jake. i loved Jake saying that his father didn't miss anything. that he was there, he was always there, with them through it all. i loved the cross-generational sharing of love and wisdom. i loved the theremin analogy. i loved Dax mentioning Sisko's tomatoes (and subsequently biting into one like an apple). i loved that SAM lets the mystery go in the end. i loved every bit of it.

thank you, Tawny Newsome. thank you, Cirroc Lofton.

and thank you, Avery Brooks, for everything. forever and always.
