Thebes @thebes.bsky.social · 28/02/2024What I gathered, and I don't think I'm misremembering the ep, is that Tamarians have a language that serves as a foundation to what we hear. So, you learn the stories that make "Shaka, when the walls fell" make sense. 100 1
Thebes @thebes.bsky.social · 28/02/2024Not willfully. Nor do I intend hostility with you. What did I miss? I can easily call someone a lizard without intending bigotry. A Jewish person can hear it and dislike it, but since it is not directed at them, it is not a slur towards them. That's the context. Not every usage is pejorative. 100 1
Thebes @thebes.bsky.social · 28/02/2024I figure if I call someone a lizard it only hurts the person and possibly someone else who hears it. That said, my boss looked like a lizard. No Jews are referenced here and so it doesn't matter. Whaddya think? 100 1

Thebes @thebes.bsky.social · 25/02/2024That is to say (and I can say this about myself) control matters in public and it can hurt both the person who melts down and others too. 2/2 000 0
Thebes @thebes.bsky.social · 25/02/2024Maybe this'll sit wrong, but I've been catching up with Larry David's schtick and think the Elmo thing is funnier than before. I feel even worse for Wil Wheaton, who has been hurt enough that some sorts of humor are intolerable. That said, he blew up over a puppet and shouldn't've. 1/2 000 0

Thebes @thebes.bsky.social · 24/02/2024If you beamed a holographic character out of the holodeck and onto the bridge, would there be only a flash of light, then nothing? I have questions! 000 0
Thebes @thebes.bsky.social · 24/02/2024What happens when a holographic character develops an aversion to light? And vampires! Does the "sun" hurt them? Do they immolate upon creation? 000 0

Thebes @thebes.bsky.social · 24/02/2024Tuvix could have existed. All three could have. There's pattern buffer records. They could've been restored like Apple's Time Machine works. There's an equal dilemma: Aren't the buffer patterns people? (Unlike events in Alabama😠) 000 0

Thebes @thebes.bsky.social · 24/02/2024Trek has always had a weird way. Think of the TOS lighting and sets. They're surreal, the music, too. Superbeings as a trope to uncover how humanity acts is, as well. Q just begs us to wonder about him, I think. 110 1
Thebes @thebes.bsky.social · 24/02/2024I propose this show ST: Warp Core. As a result of warp travel damaging space, the crew of the Alcubierre are stuck in a huge region where they jump in time and space. Voyager plus Quantum Leap. 020 2

Thebes @thebes.bsky.social · 23/02/2024I agree. However, what makes LD so much fun is how it is a love letter to all the little things of Trek 000 0
Thebes @thebes.bsky.social · 23/02/2024It cannot: Why did the Vulcan go to the airport bookstore? He heard they had a great selection of "non-fiction." 010 1

Thebes @thebes.bsky.social · 22/02/2024Apart from from morphing Voyager and crew into something Other, I think someone should catch up with V'Ger and see what's up. 000 0

Thebes @thebes.bsky.social · 21/02/2024It's better--and darker--that it gets credit for. It's a good show and future Trek should embrace it. It hits the issues Trek is famous for quite well 010 1
Thebes @thebes.bsky.social · 20/02/2024The plot wants what it wants. Replicators come from transporters. How could Quark take his cash to anyplace he transported if GPL can't replicate? These are eternal, vital questions. 020 2
