My favorite Ren Faire story:
I knew a guy who kept a Starfleet insignia pinned to the inside of his garb. A few times per season, some folks would come to the Faire cosplaying as a Star Trek landing party, investigating a “primitive” world.
He would take them aside, show his insignia, and identify himself as a Starfleet officer on a cultural research mission. He’d call them out for breaking the Prime Directive and ruining his research. Then he’d demand to know what ship they’re from, and threaten to get them court martialed if they didn’t change into something less conspicuous.
Let's talk about Natives on this Trans Day of Visibility, like Kauxuma Nupika (c.1780-1837), an Indigenous AFAB Kutenai who divorced his Canadian husband and then declared himself male. As a trans Native, Nupika became both a warrior and prophet, predicting the arrivals of Europeans to Kutenai lands and trying to forge peace between nations like the Salish and the Blackfeet
@Zennistrad Honestly I wonder if I should go back and do that for the other fics too, but I feel like that's taking away some of the fun :'D
@Zennistrad Hyyyyyyype!
Someone was asking if I could post Yuka's descrambled dialogue for the past chapter, would you be okay with that?
After a two month delay, the new chapter of my Iji/Undertale/Deltarune crossover fic "Null Driver" is up!

@Jo if rumours of them being a state actor turn out true, being exposed like that might just mean it for them
Nasa are currently working to fix a computer error aboard Voyager 1. The probe's computer system runs at around 8000 instructions per second and has about 68kB of memory. Due to the interplanetary distances involved, even at light speed it takes 45 hours to send a signal and get a response. When asked about the unique challenges this poses, an engineer said "that's actually about average for a modern CI system".
