Ironically I saw this ad last night.

I know that has six digits but that was the dialogue.

Evil or completely misguided by untethered rage and extreme betrayal?

Didn’t Musk make comments in the past too?

There is a Klingon onboard DS9?!

This is like the first time I’ve noticed that.

What is the original scene that Quark is from? I watched “Hear All, Trust Nothing” last week and I wanna find that frame.

I feel like as a 90s kid, someone old enough to remember and understand 9/11, anti-Muslim sentiment has been around a long time. That doesn’t surprise me regarding this.

EDIT: As a Filipino, I grew up hearing a particular flavor of anti-Muslim prejudice. A great grandmother would tell people that [insert censored comment], an outrageously offensive thing that was made up. A aunt would just generalize that certain parts of Philippines were not safe to travel due to Abu Sayyaf, an Islamist terror group.

I am Filipino. A cousin of min, who’s Jewish on his father’s side, decided to have a bat Mitzvah last year. Proud of the kid but I wonder if he has been exposed to actual hate speech behavior that was misdirected at the Jewish people because of the war.

Disliking the actions of the Israeli government is not the same as hating Jewish people. At some point people just started to agree with anything that wasn’t in favor of the Israeli state as being antisemitism. It is alarming how we’ve turned the actual hatred of Jewish people into an issue that isn’t about people actually hating them for their faith practices.

The oppressed have become the oppressors. That is not good.

Since when does Data have magic which allows him to create sandwiches?

Jason is the captain (already wears red), Trini is the counselor, Zachary is the Riker-type first officer, Kimberly is the doctor(?), and Billy is the chief of engineering.

An ensign to disappoint.

 

I don’t know if all their songs are parodies, but a majority of these songs are. They are fun to watch. When they are on stage, they sometimes play other covers including “I’m Ready”.

 

The above photos are for reference. These are the image and recipe from The Star Trek Cookbook by Chelsea Monroe-Cassel. My soup was pretty messy. The immersion blender I meant to use was missing, so I resorted to a regular blender. 😅 Not going to do this again without one. The bread isn’t as green as I expected because I didn’t twist it enough. It seemed to me the filling of pesto was too much, making the dough too fragile. At least I tried.

If you are unable to read the text, I’m sure you are wondering who the Norellian are. They come from the DS9 novel “The Big Game”.

So if you aren’t aware from my previous post, I was at STLV last week. Among the various things to do, there were artist doing free face painting and airbrush temporary tattoos. I decided on a temp tat and among them was this image of Tendi from “Strange Energies”.

I liked this so much that I am seriously considering getting a real permanent tattoo of this. On top of that I am thinking about getting it colored.

 
 

At STLV today, Frank Aurelio Yokoyama, the mayor of Cerritos, California was in attendance. He gave Dawn Lewis a proclamation for playing Captain Freeman.

This made me cry and I’m still in tears.

EHK: Emergency Harry Kim

When you need to disappoint an Ensign badly.

EDIT: This Hologram had to reinitialized their startup sequence. My badge was misaligned and pip on the wrong side. A kind season two Geordi saw and fixed that.

EDIT 2: Excuse me, can I get someone to fix my caffeine intake subroutine please? I am still not awake. It’s EHK, not EKM.

UPDATE: I was told to go talk to Garrett Wang. I went to his both and introduced my costume. He loved it. He asked for a photo and a video of me explaining it.

 

Just one of the many fun late night activities hear at the Rio in Las Vegas, Nevada. Trekkies like to party!

 

My first time doing makeup. I tried painting my hands but that didn’t work well.

Was walking around wearing Ceti eel earrings and carrying a Moopsy. Bumped into Seán Ferrick of TrekCulture who gave me a compliment on my costume. I am star struck getting a compliment from Seán.
