I think people mistake Ideas for Vision. Ideas don't get devs excited. So if you need other people? You have a problem. Vision is an idea that seems *practical*. Doable. Developers need vision because they need an idea that has already been filtered through the reality of game development.

Vol 3 of “They Were Bunkmates” is out now! Grab a copy of this #StarTrekLowerDecks digital fanzine on dub.sh/marinler26 where 26 contributors come together to explore and celebrate #BeckettMariner and #BradBoimler ❤️💜 The zine is free; all donations will be sent to actionkivu.org/ #StarTrek #zine

The cover art for "They Were Bunkmates: A Marinler Fanzine- Volume 3" 2026.

Front cover (left):

ART by Orchi: An illustration with blue, purple and pink palette- the colors of a bisexual flag, loosely inspired by George Barbier’s iconic 1925 Art deco illustration "Le Feu" (Fire) published in Falbalas et Fanfreluches, Almanach des Modes.

Lieutenants Beckett Mariner and Brad Boimler are sitting on the wide railing of a balcony. They are both wearing the ceremonial while uniform lined with gold. Mariner is [partially laying on Boimler, resting her left arm in his lap. Boimler is cupping her head in his left hand.

In her right hand, Beckett is holding a salmon pink alien flower, which she is caressing Brad’s face with. He’s holding her hand in his and smiling at her. Beckett is whispering something to him.

Underneath them, on the railing is a see through sheet of sparkly pink Andorian silk. On the right side of the frame, next to where the railing ends, is a block with a giant flower pot on it. The pot has a white Calla Lilly like plant, with pink and blue leaves. The vase is white, with golden handles, rim and bottom. The railing, floor tiles, the block are also white, but lined with gold emblems. It is night time, and the dark blue sky behind them is lit by purple and red fireworks

Middle Spine: A purple art deco frame surrounded by dark blue background of a starry sky, the frame contents "They Were Bunkmates- A Marinler Fanzine" in fancy white lettering. Art by Ray Daly.

Back cover: (right)
ART by Foodcu-be: An Archie-comics style illustration of Mariner kissing Boimler on the cheek. Mariner has her eyes closed and is smiling. Boimler has one visible arm up in the air while he is dizzy and blushing. Floating around them cartoonishly are T’lyn, Rutherford, and Tendi. Rutherford is without his implant. There is a blue header across the top. The title reads “THEY WERE BUNKMATES #3” in red with a white stroke. In the comics corner box is a moopsy.

I'm reading Orwell's COMING UP FOR AIR at the moment, which is at heart a very angry book that is mainly a vehicle for Orwell despairing at what the coming SWW will do to Britain and how no one seems to notice or care what the First War did, and god he loves writing characters he, himself, hates

Way back when I was a teenager still watching new episodes of TNG, I started to imagine a spinoff series based around a search and rescue ship. The idea stuck with me for years and eventually I broke it out of the Star Trek universe and into its own thing. This was a ship I came up with in 2003. /1

A black and white inked sketch of a spaceship. Perhaps you can see some clear influences?

The front was supposed to be primarily a hangar where rescue ships launched from. The rear module was a accommodations and a hospital. Both sections could land on a planet, but had to be separated first. The idea being that the hospital could function independently.

An unfinished cutaway. Part of the reason I drifted away from this design was I felt like the internal spaces never worked as well as I wanted.

The beginnings of an updated and refined redesign.

Rear view sketch. I actually modelled the basic shape in Lightwave 3D and printed out the views, then drew the details on that. I actually still like to work this way.

Lol I put a search into Slack for a very specific phrase I needed to find. The search results it showed me (automatically, without my prompting!) were "filterd" by AI to be LESS specific than what I needed. Just so sick of this shit making everything worse.

It's a treat for Trek fans as you'll recognize a number of Trek actors guest starring such as Walter Koenig (Chekov), Andreas Katsulas (Tomalak), Thomas Kopache (bunch of roles), and of course who could forget the celebrated Feltman Langer No Spill Mug (Raktajino Mug).
