I too am a massive fan of her character and seriously hope we have more of her. She was such a force of nature and the innocent heart of DSC. She grew as a character so much and means a lot to me as someone who’s neurodivergent.😀🤞

I chose the right moment to pop into the livestream. I always love when fellow Trekkies are able to actually be IN the show. While obviously Paul’s a MASSIVE Star, you can tell it was more he’s first and foremost a Trekkie and living the dream.😁👏

Sad news as yet another screen legend has passed away. I probably know her most from “The Godfather” franchise, but obviously I was very much aware of her many other roles. #RIPDianeKeaton

Really glad to finally see her back again! I know she’s just passing the torch from DSC but it’s always good to see her. Plus, there’s always the chance of her coming back in future episodes.🥲👏

This trailer looks so insanely good! Epic, emotional and with a lot of old and new faces. I’m so excited to see this and get to know all the characters soon. #StarfleetAcademy #StarTrek youtu.be/PAGzRczDYpc?...

Great opportunity to have David Tennant or Karen Gillan guest star, especially as they keep teasing us with those #DoctorWho crossovers. #StarTrekSNW

I love that they do these every season. Nice touch with updating it with the sheer destruction of the end of the previous season too. Mark looks like he’s wearing parts of Robot.😁

Thanks for sharing. During my own MH ordeal, I was offered medication. However, I’d been advised not to by my parents, due to side effects and it being difficult to get off them. I went down the counselling/therapy route instead, although that was hardly consistent. I always tell people to talk.🤗🤝💜

No one should be stuck in the awful position of waiting months on end for mental health services.

It's time to supercharge mental health care in this country.

Our Plan to Super Charge mental health services:
-Mental health MOTs at key life points
-A dedicated practitioner in every school
-Full parity between mental and physical health care
-Walk in hubs for children and young people
-Triple taxes on harmful social media giants

This looks and sounds really good! If you’re like me and have been waiting for some post-PIC (or close enough) stories, this counts. Nice to see not only Captain Seven, Commander Raffi and Admiral Crusher but also Traveller Wesley too. Will definitely have to check this out. #StarTrekPicard

That’s quite alright. I was toying with the idea of putting Insurrection instead, as I also like that too.😁

John Wells @jpwphoenix.bsky.social · 2d

Great news! I’ve always considered it a part of the franchise too, as Father Perez from “Annabelle” is in it and even talks about his ordeal with the doll. It’s just as scary as most of the franchise and I always watch it whenever I’m doing a marathon of all of it.

Very exciting to see Fanhome’s reveal of this ship at New York Comic Con — I had a very small part in helping to design the Voyager-A for #StarTrekProdigy.

Truly a bucket list moment for me, as a lifelong Star Trek fan. 🖖

I don’t know what to think about this yet. While I’m always happy to see more stories in this universe, I must admit this trailer doesn’t give me the usual excited, “This is amazing!” buzz. It’s more a sort of “Ah, OK then.” #AKnightOfTheSevenKingdoms youtu.be/UvoTrSpG-ms?...
