We love the new Cyclopunt, dinky door, combining two of the most famous things about Cambridge! Have you found the packages nearby as well?

Miniature red cargo punt/bike piled with small cardboard packages and a pink heart-patterned tin, chained to a metal bike rack against a mossy stone wall.

Metal window planter overflowing with bright pink flowers and narrow green leaves, set on a rusted iron stand against a rough stone wall, with a miniature cardboard parcel on the pavement below.

Rewatching DS9, it really strikes me how little moments are used to flesh out all the characters. For any of the senior staff, I could list maybe three or four things they might be doing when off duty. I’m not sure I could name any personal interests for the characters in SNW beyond “Pike cooks”

On the Griffin, La’An doesn’t use the the hand control for the Turbolift. I can’t work out if it’s an accidental discontinuity or an explanation for why she’s keeps ending up on the same floor. Given that nothing else gets explained, I’m going to have to assume the former.

It's so difficult to get cis people to understand the jk Rowling thing isn't that she doesn't like us so you should punish her. It's if you give her franchise any kind of support you are contributing to trans people being excluded from society

The Luddites were right and AI skeptics are too, and for the same reasons. (The actual historical Luddites weren't opposed to technology; they were opposed to the way the benefits of technology accrued to the wealthy and not to poor and working class folks.)

It may seem like nerdy detail that the increasing weight of cars is worsening potholes, but it matters. The car makers push to sell wider and heavier cars is increasing road maintenance costs and that affects us all. Not to mention worse crash outcomes and less space to pass (wider) parked cars.

The panels alternate between Dr. Bashir (a light skinned human male with short, dark hair, close and high on his head, wearing a star fleet uniform) and Garak (a Cardassian male, light skinned humanoid with slightly reptilian skin)
Panel 1:
Bashir: so, you believe all stories are political?
Panel 2:
Garak: yes, of course
Panel 3:

Panel 4:
