“I genuinely cannot believe that a gay character on a TV show in 2026 can cause this much commotion. Y’all, like, I thought… I don’t know what I thought. Like, y’all gotta understand, I live in New York City, right? So you could be purple, in Brooklyn, and nobody cares. Nobody gives a ****. You know what I mean? So, like, when I come to the internet, and I see, like, all of these feathers being ruffled… it’s jarring, but, nevertheless, I guess it signals that there’s more work to do, so, yeah, uh, anyways, let’s talk about Kyle kissing Jay-Den in episode seven, y’all.”

😂 Gene protect this man

I believe it was supposed to monitor your jellyfin library and look for potential upgrades.

I noticed that they had an account on the same instance as StarTrek.website. I’ll check it out! @Trek_Academy@tenforward.social

No, the URL in the post is to a .jpg

Any pointers where to begin?

Maybe things have improved but the last time I tried the Home Assistant er- assistant, it was garbage at anything other than the most basic commands given perfectly.

Same lol, they’re both great. But that’s where the similarities end as far as I can tell.

If you want something you don’t have to fuss over, that’s very stable (but also gets frequent updates), and “just works” with most games? Bazzite is your answer.

I’m with you. Felt very normal for twenty somethings.

I really don’t think we were meant to interpret the advice of “be a dick” literally. People with social anxiety often feel like they’re being a dick when others just see confidence and playful teasing.

I interpreted his lesson to stop being afraid of how others perceive him, which is a recurring theme of this series.

I thought this episode was the sort of comfortable, regular-ass side quest character-development stories the fans are always clamoring for. Honestly surprised to see the largely negative reaction here.

One step at a time!

Jeri Ryan made a Mastodon account during the great Twitter migration but sadly doesn’t seem to be using it much these days.

Beautiful. Stunning. My jaw is on the floor. It’s like a living youtube comment. My entire bingo card is full in one comment.

I literally thought this was satire until I saw the comment about post history. Amazing. No notes. Please keep doing your thing.

I see what you mean. When I said “growing as individuals” I meant it moreso as “learning about ones self”, i.e.: Kirk is forced to face and overcome his own racism, Spock faces his own biases when he is let down by the betrayal, etc. But yes if we’re talking career advancement, then you’re right. They’re all basically facing retirement except Sulu and Chekov, really.

Personally speaking that doesn’t affect the story at all for me, I think it’s up there with TWOK as the best Trek film for it’s Soviet Union “end of history” allegories.

Are these people even watching the show?

Honestly? I have to assume not. I think they watch YouTube ““reviews”” of the show instead. At best, I’m sure some of them have it on in the background while they scroll rage bait on their phones.

I think that casual attitude makes sense for someone who has been around for hundred’s of years.

I think it makes sense too, but even if she was only in her 60s… who the hell cares? She gets the job done, she has the respect of her crew, again, who the hell cares? The fact that male characters (who aren’t 800 years old mind you) are seldom criticized for doing the same thing should tell you all you need to know.

Saving democracy through experience, cunning, and guile in their golden years all while continuing to grow as individuals isn’t enough for ya?

Genuinely curious about your take, it’s not something I’ve seen before.

For me Nemesis falls solidly into the “Not a ‘good’ movie, but something I can put on literally any time and have fun with it.”

As you said, the themes, inasmuch as they exist, are clunky. The story is nonsensical. But the performances are good as always, the sets are good as always, and the presentation (sfx/makeup/etc) are solid as always.
