Back after an almost 9 month hiatus. The end of 2024 was just... overwhelming, and by December, I just couldn't take the constant onslaught. Not that it's gotten better, but I missed interacting with fellow Trekkies, so here I am!

remember, folks,
This Thanksgiving remember the cranberry sauce, but forget the Marijuana. Terry was convinced to take a "toke" of a joint with his friend "just to relax". Immediately after, Terry killed his friend who had given him the marijuana in a murderous craze. Not so safe, is it? Marijuana. Not Even Once. Ad Council

I genuinely think this is my favorite Star Trek model I've ever built.
LEGO Excelsior class model.

Bit later than billed but looks like the Eugenics Wars are just over the horizon.

Day 37 of inserting a random Muppet into a random Star Trek screenshot

Happy Thanksgiving to those who celebrate!

A screenshot from Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country shows General Chang sitting next to Captain Kirk at the dinner table. A furry blue waiter (Grover) can be seen offering Kirk a slice of pie.

Enjoy your Thursday, #StarTrek friends!
I can't think of a better meme for Thanksgiving than this one. Hope is my copium in these dark days, and I thank the Great Bird of the Galaxy for Star Trek.
Have a great one today, friends, whether you celebrate or not!
A shot from the fake - and quite satirical - commercial in the tribble Short Trek. A smiling mother in a yellow Starfleet uniform is emptying a cereal-style box of tribbles (the furry creatures with amazing procreative abilities) into a white bowl. A little girl in apparently a red Starfleet uniform is watching the pouring tribbles with glee. The caption over the mom says, "Star Trek". The caption over the box says, "The possibility of future where our differences as humans are celebrated and humanity isn't doomed." The caption over the little girl says, "Me." (NOTE: I just mistyped "caption" as "captain." If that isn't #StarTrek infusion into my life, I don't know what is... :-D ).

Well, here's one thing that you can be sure of. Leave any distaste for turkey in your quarters. There's no room for it at the Thanksgiving table in the mess hall.

Now. do. you. want. seconds?

Hah found this one in some archives, a web page I made decades ago about space flight. Unfortunately, this snap shot is incomplete. I had added a bunch of pages eventually, including non-Earth/Federation after Enterprise was on. #StarTrek #Treknology 🧵

This is a shame. They made some good, reasonably priced jackets. There's still a chance to get some. My Picard faux leather command jacket is from them.

Licensee HERO WITHIN — you may have seen their #StarTrek jackets at STLV, SDCC, or NYCC — is ending their "Trek" product line, per a new announcement from the company.
Hello Family, Tony Kim here, owner of Hero Within. I need to update you about an important change for Hero Within. It's with great sadness that we are announcing the end of our Star Trek license. For over 6 years we have journeyed together and experience the 'Undiscovered Country' of modern Trek- but all good things must come to an end. We wanted nothing more but to grow old together but as a result of the Skydance/Paramount merger, the license cost became too great. Since July, we have been negotiating back and forth but we just couldn't meet Paramount's new contract goals. Since 2019, we have dropped our other licenses to focus on Star Trek, so to end this relationship is quite devastating to us. We always dreamed Star Trek could be a global juggernaut and hoped we could make that a reality together. Sadly, you will have to continue on without us. What does this means now? For the next month, we will be focusing on two objectives; First, we are working to deliver all of our past productions (Check the update at the very bottom). Second, we are starting a Last Call Preorder today for Black Friday. This will be your final chance to own an official Star Trek X Hero Within Jacket. Our jackets will be "collector's items" starting January 1st. After holding off all year, we also had to raise our prices by 10% to combat the new tariffs and inflation. We hope you understand. Hopefully, we can return to Star Trek someday but for now, this is your last chance. What's next? By purchasing from this Last Call Preorder, you will help set us up for what is next. For the first couple of months of 2026, we will be selling off what is left of our Star Trek collection, then we will move on to the future. For the past 9 years, we've been in licensed partnerships and honestly, I'm a little exhausted from it. Hero Within will probably take 2026 to develop some small passion projects until we dive back into the world of licensing. Because of you, we built this company together and now, we will take this leap into the great unknown together. It will be tough and scary but my hope is that it will push us into a better and sustainable future. Finest crew in the fleet Hero Within could not have made it this far without you. From the pandemic, the writer strike, inflation, tariffs and now licensing challenges, together we have seen it all. Like every relationship, we know we haven't been perfect. We've been late, made production mistakes and not been great with communication. Thank you for sticking with us and allowing Hero Within to grow, evolve and get better. I hope you'll stay with us for this next chapter. I'm not sure what it will be but I promise a future that will be fun, interesting and exciting. Help us out by shopping our Star Trek Collection this week. Oh, we do have one more new release in early December so stay tuned! The fun isn't over.

Happy 39th Anniversary Star Trek IV, the Voyage Home. The 2nd Trek movie I saw in theatres. I loved it.

In 2016 we shot a short tribute film in many of the same locations. It was fun, please check it out at the link if you have 6 minutes to spare. 🙂
