Star Trek is such a multi-genre landscape. That's what makes it so wonderful and why it's survived for so long.

IIRC, Code of Honor's original script called for the locals to be aliens (lizard aliens I think) and the director is the one who made them people and cast them as a specific ethnicity. So the worst of Code of Honor wasn't her. I don't know much about SG-1, though. And I could be remember wrong.

Do you think he really thinks the dog is a cat, or is this the dog equivalent of a joke?

Ion Man. That's also what you get if you remove an electron.

Code of Honor is absolutely part of Star Trek's woke history!

Director Russ Mayberry was fired by Gene Roddenberry because of the racist casting decisions that made Code of Honor one of the worst Star Trek episodes.

Star Trek was so woke it held people accountable for their bigotry.

The problem is with looking at Sec31 as being a good thing. They were a mistake the Federation made. Good people get tangled up in Sec31, but there's nothing admirable about it. It's incompatible with the Fed's values and most of them are jerks.

Claude is a really good autocorrect that is ruinously expensive in terms of electricity. There, I answered the question.

I think that's absolutely it.

Picard artistry tip: Lacking innate talent at a skill doesn't mean you should stop. On the contrary, it means you need to practice.

I also thought you'd be interested to hear that the reason I want to know is that I loved Titandeath so much that I'm painting my Adeptus Titanicus models as Legio Solaria, but that makes me want to paint some Tigris Mechanicum for Legions Imperialis to go with them!

@guyhaley.bsky.social In your latest Black Library novel, you mentioned Forge World Tigris being black and orange. Since there's no other information about their color scheme, could reveal what - if anything - else you were imagining when you wrote that scene?

I've never even seen the show and I still love that ship already.

I am a firm supporter of the idea that #BattleTech is best as a combined arms game. Accordingly, my Knights of Canopus now include two painted VTOLs and eight bases of infantry and I've got four more tanks on my painting handles right now!

You know I can't really disagree with this.

Ugh. I hate COVID. Fake ass viral piece of shit. Go evolve your own cells and leave mine alone.

Thank you!

Apparently I forgot to post these guys here! Please enjoy. #BattleTech

The Ebony is a Canopian black ops mech, and who better to do the occasional covert op but some mercenaries who don't even technically work for you right now? #BattleTech

Magnets allow me to use this guy as a Prime or A, and I have both a B and the bits to make a pair of arms for this one to be a C on the way. This was a lovely mini, very fun to work with. #BattleTech.

Enjoy some little buggo guys. #BattleTech

I've gotten a bunch more purple expats from everyone's favorite space femdom matriarchy painted since I last checked in. #BattleTech

@gonzohistory.bsky.social if gods are a social construct, does that mean that the likes of Shar and Tiamat are antisocial constructs? #ttrpg

I got another Knight of Canopus done, this time an itty bitty little guy. A Squire of Canopus? #BattleTech

This Crusader has been sitting on my shelf for a while and I'm glad to have finally gotten paint on it. I think it looks good in Knights of Canopus purple. #BattleTech

Thanks!
