I’ll have you know I meow at the ship computer.

Yes, intelligence is intelligence. There’s nothing about the rest of the body that the brain is encased in that makes one more or less deserving of rights.

Is there a way to find the most used tags?

Sometimes I’ll start to tag something, and a billion different variations show up, so I don’t know which to use.

Mastodon is a good alternative.

The Baldur’s Gate IP has a solid fanbase, D&D is really popular now, and also Larian knocked this one out of the park.

It’s also refreshingly consumer-friendly, like others have said.

I’d vote for a politician who ran on a star trek platform.

Have we had any known Trekkies in office before?

sniff “So my vision for this game is Tron on ostriches, but with a heavy focus on medieval jousting.”

Like we needed a reason.

We need some of that now. I want crazy games again.

Yeah, I’ll follow someone on Mastodon or Twitter because they post funny content, but then they start posting selfies or something and I have to decide how much of that I mind scrolling past every so often.

It makes so much more sense to follow topics than individuals.

I think for a lot of them, they must have come up with some cool looking sprites and then tried to make a game/story around that.

Now this feels futuristic

I say the more the merrier. I’m still going to use startrek.website, but it’s good to have a presence on other instances to avoid becoming reddit.

Get out of the holodeck, Lt Broccoli

I’m with old Dr. McCoy from that one TNG episode on this one. Not a chance.

That’s so disappointing, but at least I know going into it now.

I feel like a key interview question for a writer/director/etc should be “are you a fan of star trek?” Like, there are a ton of hardcore trek fans out there. Sure some of them are writers and can do the characters justice.

I guess the closest is something generic like “belittles” or “degrades” maybe?

Now that I think of it, I do really like that aspect of Quark’s bar as a story tool. Since they were located on a station, anyone who’s just passing through could be sitting at the bar.

His stories really helped humanize (gotta be a better for for that) the Ferengi. Like, yes they were cartoonishly greedy little jerks, but they also have individuality within their culture.

Ten Forward is just a relaxing environment. There are a few people who have uploaded ambient/atmospheric trek videos on youtube (usually something like “10 hours of the TNG warp core room”). There’s a Ten Forward one I’ve put on in the background quite a few times.
