That feels like a contrived defense of Roddenberry in the usual way, because some people always want him to have been right about everything all along. The reality is that TNG started with zero interpersonal conflict on the crew and gradually got better as it grew its beard. But that still means...

My bad. For some reason I'd had it in my head that you had been using SR slang in this campaign. Normally, when I make my posts indecipherable, I try to earn it. I'll get myself back up to speed before I start forgetting what species y'all are.

"Chip truth", according to a Shadowrun slang dictionary I didn't vet, just means "truth". So they're saying it's posh, f'reals.

Tipple couldn't help their eyes widening as they took in the sight. "Posh, chip truth," they said, then took their seat.

Oh, I thought that might be what you were going for there, a little chemistry XD

I've been away for a bit and missed this until Kalidor mentioned it in another thread. It breaks my brain, but I love it. This gives me vibes of the time Steven Universe crossed over with Uncle Grandpa, characters insisted it wasn't canon, and also a major plot point of the SU arc happened...

Ahhhhh, sorry, my bad. = o

Genuinely I don't see any purpose to showing "the Titan", and then having it be something completely different, other than to stick it to people who want to pretend Lower Decks or the Riker books are canon in their heads because the live action shows don't technically contradict them. It's only...

"Stick it to the stallion, but don't stick him if we can help it. Fair's fair," said Tipple with a nod. They turned to Rhapsody. "That planning you mentioned, we need a boardroom or summat?"

Tipple was aware that the Captain and Haze would be back from their excursion, and had made their way back to the church. Eventually, Tipple's head arrived at Moony's room, craning around the doorjamb, followed by the rest of them a moment later. "Eh, ki - er, Moony, still with the living I...

And it was a Pike episode that would have been the stealth pilot for SNW if they'd planned it all along. And it also manages to be the one episode that contradicts the big reveal of the main plot later on. I'm glad they decided to make more stories like that, specifically a whole show about it...

It was Saru, and it's now Burnham. I wouldn't know how to sum them up - Saru's command style seemed to be very measured as well as empathetic, but at times not decisive enough, like an overly put upon mom who just wants the kids to try and behave. Burnham's biggest problem before S4 seemed to be...

Definitely. It looks like there's clear red in there, which is different from the lower part of the chest but the same as the spikes on the head at the top of the chest, right? The orange really would have been a good choice there.

That's a very apt and subtle choice of phrasing that carefully avoids propping up Star Trek as a whole as exemplary at subtlety. X ] I don't think subtlety per se is actually what makes it fly or not, though. Or if it is, it's subtlety of craft, not subtlety of message. TOS had some very good...

Ostensibly they only come in two sizes and those sizes are in inches, so I'd argue that scale wasn't a consideration, but.

It bothers me that they feel the need to include metal sections, and it seems weird that they have sculpted panel lines at the scale they're working at. The result feels just a little bit like the 6" Galoob Enterprise D I had as kid, and that little bit is a little bit too much for me to pick...

And what's this? I'm not even sure what else to say about this week's episode that it doesn't say for itself. Chapel is best girl. I might have more to say on a second viewing, but we're covering a lot of ground in the kinds of Trek plots the show is tackling, and this fairly grim story set...

Oh, I remember that, when The Last Autobot reconstructed Michaelangelo from the spirit left inside his pocket mouse friend

Maybe I'll feel differently in five years, but I hope that decision is locked in a box and the key cast into Mount Doom. SNW is giving me hope that Trek can be good again and I don't want to see it dipping into the Picard S1 playbook.

Ooh, I dig how they distinctified the proportions on them, like the job on MP Road Rage. Nicely done.
