I’m one of those crazy leftists. I also enjoy Star Trek. I’m an educator in cancer research. I’m also not THAT kind of doctor. (he/they) 🏳️‍🌈 linktr.ee/pdpatterson

When I was at the University of Missouri in 2011, I was a Residence Hall Coordinator. This was before the Obama admin's Title IX "Dear Colleagues" letter. A man who lived in my dorm entered several women's dorms, jumped in bed with them, and fondled them. We expelled him. WTF Cornell?!

I hope Alan Alda knows that people are using his likeness to make fun of an idiot Republican Senator. He'd be so delighted. I know.

Y'all, can't we just... I mean to say, it would be nice if... can we all recognize how damn good I look for 40?!
It's me! I'm smiling at the camera, wearing a white button-down shirt with a rainbow lanyard. I have on brown glasses and have a close-shaved beard.

The thing is, I'm not necessarily trying to look like a "woman" or a drag queen. But perhaps hip cutlets aren't a bad idea lol

Should this be my Halloween costume? Having a more "lean" figure (that is, with little shape), the sizing isn't great — fitting my shoulders makes it too big in the waist and I haven't any hips. But it is really cute! #StarTrek

Spoilers for #StrangeNewWorlds episode 410. Now that the episode has landed I can finally post this photo from my set visit last year. Flagging it as graphic in case anyone scrolls past accidentally. She looks great up close!
The head of the Caitian character that appears in 410.

I loved during Picard when Dave Blass would share info sheets on the ships. I'd love if they'd do something similar for these models of these amazing TAS species! #StarTrek

Ah, you see, the Skorrelian wasn't Starfleet. They were on loan from Aurelia to help install a Skorrelian-built component.

Thank you @trekcore.com for these photos! I didn't notice the Caitian (M'Ress?!), but I saw the Aurelian/Skorr and member of Sord's species and was so excited to see both in live action on #StarTrekSNW.

Five pictures are enclosed. Two of a yellow Aurelian or Skorr (a winged bird-like alien; they are wearing no uniform). One picture of a Caitian who looks MYSTERIOUSLY look M'Ress. Two last pictures of a reptilian-like alien in a Starfleet uniform who belongs to Sord's species.

Seeing people confused about the use of the term "Admiral" to refer to Pike. Of course, "Fleet Captain" is a title, not a rank. Starfleet isn't exactly like the modern Navy, but it's possible that Pike, as a Rear Admiral Lower Half was also a Fleet Captain. #StarTrek

Strange New Worlds isn't perfect. This episode? Was phenomenal. Celia Rose Gooding carries an episode of Star Trek so well.

First! My Saurian Brandy came in today!! Second! I'm no TOS expert. Can anyone verify which episode this comes from? #StarTrek

Like, how does this agreement, Rob, ensure that Hollywood remains in Hollywood and that the actual people that elect you are protected from abuses that come from this merger?

Have you used this page? It's so convoluted to actually get a message out.

Dr. Patrick Patterson @patrickdpatterson.com · 21/09/2026
Rob, what are the exact budgets on these films? How much of the budget must be spent on personnel (e.g., to pay real people to do real work)? Is there a guarantee Paramount cannot move its headquarters? What guarantees do we have to prevent layoffs? And what happens in 5 years?

I can immediately tell what kind of person you are by answering these two questions: 1. Do you push "skip intro" for M*A*S*H? 2. Do you push "skip intro" for Star Trek: Enterprise?
