Right wing tech bros: we love Star Trek but it's too woke nowadays. Too preachy. Kirk's show wasn't like this.

Average TOS episode: AI is bad and should never be allowed to run a society. Also, make peace because nationalism kills and every life form must be respected equally.

someone recently noted that twitter launched twenty years ago this month, in case you’re wondering why i’ve been staring into the middle distance for the last several days

I’m rewatching old Star Trek episodes to see which ones pass the B’kdel Test:
(1) Two named Klingons
(2) Talking to each other
(3) About something other than honor

Thank you for making No Kings 3 the biggest day of mass protest that America has ever seen. #NoKings

Legends

To better days…

The absolute highlight of this year's #Marchintosh is Canvas, another fantastic program by @kalleboo. Canvas let's folks on #GlobalTalk write and draw on a shared canvas, one pixel at a time.

It requires patience and FatBits skill, but it's lots of fun. Can you find my drawing?

early but strong contender for tweet of the year

An appropriate T-shirt for today.

RE: https://mastodon.social/@Gargron/1

10 years today.

As the Nazgûl Lord swings again, Meriadoc of the Shire stabs a Barrow-blade into his knee from behind. ‘Éowyn!’

She makes a final thrust with her sword just beneath the crown.

A scream: after four thousand years of service to Sauron, the Nazgûl Lord passes from Middle-earth.

Éowyn drops her helmet. ‘No living man am I! Begone, if you be not deathless! I will smite you, if you touch him.’ The Nazgûl Lord spurs his mount upon her; she cleaves its neck. He rises to face her himself. His mace smashes her shield and breaks her arm. She falls to her knees.

A black dart hits Snowmane, who rears and falls, crushing King Théoden. The Witch-king’s carrion-bird digs its claws into the horse’s corpse.

A sword rings as it is drawn: Dernhelm will defend the king’s body.

The Witch-king taunts him. ‘Thou fool. No living man may hinder me!’

happy birthday caesar
