NYOTA UHURA Star Trek (1966) 

[fluegelheld-deactivated20210810]

ID: 2 Star Trek TOS gifs of Lieutenant Uhura (black woman with short, straightened black hair with bangs. She’s wearing the red uniform dress and green hoop earrings and silver nailpolish).

She is leaning with her crossed arms on the back of a chair. She’s smiling bright and leaning forward with joyous laughter. In the background are other people who are clapping. ID End.

These are the voyages of the starship Enterprise…

The whole crew, together at last! Plus some tribbles.

I learned a lot making these! I went from uneven yarn-over stiches with jagged color changes and only a vague idea of how to make hair (sorry Spock) to even yarn-under stitches, crisp color changes, diagonal color changes, and even some passable hairdos! And now I'm excited to apply all my new skills to...the next generation....

(actually I'll probably do voyager next but shhh we'll get to TNG eventually)

Hi! Am interested in the event but just wondering what stuff are you guys going to be watching in July?

Hi thanks for stopping by!

So it all depends on whether or not I get kosmi to work with my dvds and my old laptop. I had planned on getting paramount+ and streaming it with kosmi everything from the Uhura centric episodes of TOS and SNW and the movies (reboot included). I'm still in the process of testing out my old laptop with kosmi (its like 10 years old lol but its got a dvd drive).

if all else fails there's always

Stop the SAVE America Act: Defend the Right to Vote

Millions of Americans stand to lose their freedom to vote if we fail here >> Starting Tuesday, March 17, Republican senators will sp

The Senate is poised to vote any day now on the SAVE Act, a sweeping voter suppression bill that will disenfranchise millions of Americans. We must act now to make sure it never reaches Trump’s desk.

This bill will disenfranchise tens of millions of Americans, including 146 million Americans without passports, Americans living or serving overseas, 70 million married women, rural voters, and anyone who has legally changed their name.

Trump has stated that passing the SAVE Act is his "No. 1 priority" and vowed not to sign any other bills into law until it passes. He even admitted that its passage would "guarantee the midterms" for Republicans.

The freedom to vote is fundamental to American democracy. Congress is responsible for safeguarding this sacred right, not undermining it with lies and fearmongering. The Senate must vote NO on the SAVE Act.

hi!!!!

So life has been a bitch lately but I'm finally back to planning for our epic 2 month long celebration (July will be streaming events on discord and August will have the daily prompts). I don't want to pay for paramount+ but I do want to stream all the uhura things in July. I'm just gonna get the dvds from the library and such so that way I don't have to pay for paramount+

Here's the thing. In an effort to keep our discord safe and troll free I'm asking that everyone that wants access to the streaming events in July (should mostly be on Saturdays through Mondays in July) submit an ask to this blog and I'll privately reply with a link to the discord. I'll work out the schedule soon and post it on our community here on tumblr in case you rather wait for July to join the discord.

I'm still open to other ways of streaming! If you know of another way of streaming shows with a chat feature besides Discord I'm willing to try.

Thanks for reading this far!

Black History Month -- Mae Jemison

Last year was the first year that I wrote about Mae Jemison for Black History Month, and as I did the research for this piece, I was truly amazed by this woman.  I think you will be, too! At five years old, she told her parents and teachers that she wanted to be a scientist. And she also wanted to be a dancer. She also loved watching Star Trek. She “was fueled by a childhood passion for ‘Star…
