Give this a repost if you can. Not for clicks, I'm not monetized, that doesn't matter. Repost to share this - the hate fades. The anger dulls. The future we dream of doesn't happen accidentally. It happens by choice. A platform is as powerful as we make it. Happy Sunday :)

I think the outdoor scenes were both shot in the same place, and that's where the confusion comes.

Easy mistake to make. I'm doing a rewatch, and watched that episode recently. When I saw the episode title I thought "Oh, that's where O'Brien tore his trousers and they were really in trouble", but no. 😅

"The Ship" was them finding a Jem'Hadar ship & defending it. That's "Rocks & Shoals" from the S6 six parter at the start of the season.

Fans: Give us something new! Network: OK, here is something new. Fans: No, not like that! Make it like the old stuff! Network: OK, here's something a bit more like the old stuff. Fans: You're just rehashing old ground! Can't you be original?!

Auschwitz Memorial @auschwitzmemorial.bsky.social · 27/01/2026
Auschwitz was at the end of a process. We must remember that it did not start from gas chambers. This hatred gradually developed: from ideas, words, stereotypes & prejudice through legal exclusion, dehumanization & escalating violence... to systematic and industrial murder. Auschwitz took time.
A bird's-eye view of a former Auschwitz II-Birkenau camp showing a wide dirt pathway flanked by parallel rows of barbed-wire fences. Groups of visitors walk along the path, surrounded by the remnants of brick structures and barracks, now reduced to foundations. Green grass contrasts with the somber history of the site, as the path leads toward a guard tower in the distance.

You fell into the trap of thinking that there are two truths, rather than a *singular* truth with two different perspectives on it. Kamala Harris warned you all, but because it came from a Democrat black woman, folk refused to believe her. Which is nuts - when Trump was promising the same crimes.

Bil @bordersjambo.bsky.social · 27/01/2026
The thing I *really* don't comprehend is that literally *none* of this should have been a surprise. Trump is doing exactly what he said he would do, and I think there's far worse to come.

Bil @bordersjambo.bsky.social · 27/01/2026
Yeah, but isn't your "Supreme Court" a political animal with political appointees? Which is honestly bizarre to me, but anyway. You're saying it wasn't politically expedient to stop a fascist dictator rise to power, because folk didn't care? I'm sorry, I find that really difficult to comprehend. 😔

Trump's position has always been to end the war by Ukraine surrendering to Russian occupation & rule, and for them to give him all their mineral rights. We've all seen this from day one. Nobody is under any illusion that Trump is on anyone's side but his own (personal) one.

Also the previous administration who had 4 years to imprison or execute him for his multiple crimes & treason. Did nothing. Instead, ensured that legally, the President is above the law & allowed him to stand again.

Think it's more about putting someone in who served under Obama, to placate weak-willed Democrats in Congress so they'll vote for more funding for this.

A reminder that Tom Homan (now in charge of ICE in Minnesota) took a $50k bribe from an undercover FBI agent before Trump killed the investigation. Homan was never Senate confirmed because he’s a caricature of corruption. His appointment and authority is illegal.

People are falling out of love with Harry Potter, but I can assure it's certainly not because they're falling out of love with liberalism. Pretty much the exact opposite actually. They won't actively support JKR.

They are actively trying to provoke civil war, or at the very least, martial law. It's the only way they can stop the midterms, and keep Trump in power until he dies.

Hold that thought. This was filmed long before the Ellison takeover. We've yet to really see what their influence in Trek will be.

Yes, that's one form. But individual protest is another. Collective individual protests are another again. Like you say, it's a movement. I wish you all the luck in the world.

And more power to you! I'm just confused at getting prickly about the word "protest", when that's exactly what it is. You're protesting against the fed govt and holding them to account. OK it's not thousands marching through the streets with banners "protest", but it's still a protest.

It's great fun, and isn't that the whole point? You can tell they had an absolute blast making it, and that transcribes onto the screen. Too many fans I think sit there with a notebook, ticking and crossing off things. Just enjoy it.

I've appealed, so I'm just sitting here waiting for their AI systems to decide I'm not human, and disable it permanently with no right of further appeal. After that, I can move on with my life.

Star Trek Minus Context @nocontexttrek1.bsky.social · 25/01/2026
Star Trek Enterprise scene. It's an image of the White House in Washington, DC. Four long and tall Nazi banners in bright red are draped across the front and a Nazi flag on a flagpole flies above the building. A tank is stationed on the front lawn. No caption. RIP Renee Good. RIP Alex Pretti. Fuck ICE.

Post-scarcity is a myth. We have the potential for post-scarcity right now. Nobody should ever be hungry or cold. There is more than enough for everyone. We just actively choose not to. Because capitalism.

At this point, they are still more akin to the SA or SD. Just State thugs spreading violence, terror and murder on the streets. We're still in 1934.

Maybe. Maybe not. Starmer has been trying to destroy the left because he thinks they have nowhere else to go & he can stop them being a threat to him & his right wing agenda. But now they do, so that strategy will never apply again. Burnham needs to activate that IMO.

He needs to understand that Labour is done, and join the Greens or YP. Clearly Labour don't want him. Do that while he's still Manchester mayor. Let's see Starmer squirm over that one.

I think one of the most frustrating things for many neurodivergent people is that we cannot understand why people don’t give a fuck about things that could make the world a better and kinder place - that’s what happens when your emotional circuitry doesn’t work “effectively”

That's just an added bonus. I don't want to see things being overanalysed to death based on no context and little information (or worse, more information than the trailer provides in and of itself). Each to their own, but I stay out of all that.

Trailers are spoilers. Let's just call them out as that, because that's what they are. I never watch them, and I really don't understand why anyone would on a show they're going to watch anyway. It's Star Trek. Of course we're going to watch it. So I never paid any attention to the "marketing".
