The sitemaker (Josh Mayfield at https://bsky.app/profile/bean525.bsky.social) has asked for people to come in and kick its tires so he can work out any bugs they turn up. So do give him a hand, if you feel inclined. :)

(also, deeply amused by this one...)

I want every ad on the subway to be this one. And then I want this also posted elsewhere. And then I want people who don’t use earbuds or headphones while listening to music or watching their videos in public to have their phones explode in their hands and faces. Or they get shunned and banned from public spaces.

Or...

Don't you just love when you're watching TOS and Spock looks over his shoulder at Jim all fierce and sultry like:

And Jim is looking back at him like he's having a holy moment like:

And it happens on a daily basis?

Anyway, this is my doodle paying homage to this phenomenon.

I've dubbed this piece "How the F**k Did They Get Any Work Done (On The Bridge)?"

Featuring Spock's smokey eyed over shoulder smoulder and Jim's heart eyes.

i wonder what it was to like to one day show up for a script reading and meeting for star trek season 2 and the writers and director are like, "hey, for episode one we have this really interesting story... but for this to work, have you tried emulating being in heat like a rabid animal?"

[dduane]

What has to be pointed out here (a bit regretfully) is that in 1967 there'd never have been a meeting at which the actors would've been given a chance to voice an opinion about whether they were okay with the concept of a script. That wasn't how such things were done then. (And no question, it's delightful that things have moved on a little bit from that state.)

What did happen with "Amok Time" were a couple of drafts, with supporting and/or instigating memos, that were written before anyone who'd act in the script would ever see it. Some detail about the beginnings of that process are here, supported by Roddenberry's own (typewritten, God bless it) copy of Ted Sturgeon's original outline for the episode.

No Chapel, no T’Pau. The original Amok Time story outline

I own the Amok Time story outline Ted Sturgeon submitted to Gene Roddenberry. It’s a fascinating look at the process of creating an episode

Just a casual reminder of something that (when considering process) nowadays gets in the way of a lot of analysis of early Trek: not only is tomorrow not yesterday, but neither is today. 😏

(...And yet: imagine the look[s] on Nimoy's face at the first table reading of shooting draft 1...) 😅

Have you seen spirk highlighted in red? When you like the post, it sends an arrow through the heart! That's sweet of Tumblr to do. I've also seen destiel, ineffable husbands and byler in red. Could be more out there!

jim kirk’s snapchat account though, it would be amazing

him posing with the gorn like “aint easy being green” and one of his salad making a frowny face with tomato eyes and a red pepper slice mouth all “thanks a lot BONES”

and then a series of him posing in his tight red exercise pants sent to spock’s account with text like “SPOCK WHAT DO YOU THINK” different angle ”ARE THEY REGULATION STANDARD” another angle ”TOO SMALL OR JUST RIGHT?” from behind “OFFICIAL FIRST OFFICER THOUGHTS?”

Spock: 😏

Kirk: 🤨

Ever since I saw the Strange New World episode Lost in Translation I was being driven insane by how familiar the tune playing in the background was.

To me it sounded like a jazz version of The Beatles cover of the song Till There Was You.

So I looked to see if anyone else was also stimming out over this and lo and behold:

It seems a lot of folks came to the same conclusion. Your thoughts?

Anyway, that was driving me wild for quite some time because technically, it's the song that was playing when Kirk and Spock formally met. ;)

Seems the verdict is Til There Was You. If anyone has any other info, feel free to jump in!

If you haven't heard the tune in question, here is the version I am familiar with:

It is also one of my all-time favourite love songs, and it was the first song that I learned to play on bongos as a child.❤️

Lyrics below!

There were bells on a hill

But I never heard them ringing

No, I never heard them at all

'Til there was you

There were birds in the sky

But I never saw them winging

No, I never saw them at all

'Til there was you

Then there was music

And wonderful roses

They tell me in sweet fragrant meadows

Of dawn and dew

There was love all around

But I never heard it singing

No, I never heard it at all

'Til there was you

Then there was music

And wonderful roses

They tell me in sweet fragrant meadows

Of dawn and dew

There was love all around

But I never heard it singing

No, I never heard it at all

'Til there was you

'Til there was you

[thylaforever]

On my way to watch the episode again!

[idontwanttoboldlygo]

Fascinating.

[thylaforever]

I could listen to him talk forever 💙🖖
