The mirror girls are “fighting”

After my last iPad died completely, I was able to obtain another well loved hand-me-down. All you Spirk fans cross your fingers and let’s hope this iPad lasts for waaay longer than the previous one. 😂

Classic SF once again betrayed by a clear, static-free signal and a flat digital screen

This is how I remember classic Who and Star Trek, folks, with signal ghosts and scanning lines (but usually with more static/snow)

Sharing this on my main because it appears from the notes that it's useful for some modern viewers.

You KNOW classic SF used the limited displays of CRT television and the static of transmitted signals the way theaters use stage makeup and lighting to make inexpensive props look great fine— take advantage of the medium! But it's hard to imagine how it looked if you've only seen Blu-ray HD restorations.

I swear to you, despite classic Who using bubble wrap for years as one of its go-to materials that reflected light in interesting ways, we never realized that's what it was.

There are many wild things about Amok Time as an episode but I feel like we don't talk about the fact that the resolution is pulled from Romeo & Juliet. Like. Administering a drug that feigns death? For the purpose of escaping an arranged marriage? Spock/Romeo falsely believing the trick and being devastated?? This shit is from the most classic romance of all time what the HELL

I felt I had to include the tags because WILLIAM SHATNER WROTE THIS.

[trekkie-smut]

Okay so do yall know the Brooklyn 99 scene where holt tells Jake that he did something embarrassing, and then Jake asks "why are you telling me this??!" And holt goes:

Spock 100% did something like this to Leonard. Which then makes him insane because

"Scotty I swear on my mama, Spock looked at me and laughed."

"Ach, I dunno Len, that's a mite outta Mr Spock's comfort zone innit?"

"On my mama, Scotty. My mama!"

And I think that's fantastic.
