sir do you deny that you witnessed Trae Young's 10-assist, 8-turnover performance? is it your testimony that you have never witnessed Clint Capela going 1-for-4 from the foul line? might i remind you that you are UNDER OATH

Happy #StarTrekDay! Today we celebrate 60 years of one of Science Fiction's most iconic settings and stories, and the inspiration for our fantastic series of stories, projects and adventures. From Kirk to Boimler, From Uhura to Tilly and from Constitution-Class to Akira(!), it has inspired us all.

Happy 60th Anniversary to #StarTrek. I came late to the game, but for the last decade, it's inspired me to write more than I ever had before, make a bunch of really great friends, and dare to hope for a future that could be better for all of us. To the next 60! #StarTrekDay
