Personnal log
Stardate 47941.7
I have only two episodes left of TNG to watch and feel dread at the idea of it being finished.
I started watching it after seeing memes of Data and Spot almost a year ago. I had told myself i had watched the first two seasons ironically but after 5 seasons the excuse started to run thin. I now speak to myself with the voice of Captain Picard making logs.
It will be the first star trek series i watched. I did watch episode one of TOS a few years ago and gave it no further chance. I realise now i mistook Pike for Kirk and thought he looked very different from the other images i saw of tos but gave it no mind back then.
I hated viscerally some episodes, i got bored by a small yet non negligible part, i laughed on rare occasions, i overreacted to simple characters interactions as if they were gosspis , and i cried a few times. And i do not cry easily. By writing this i am reminded of Lal, or that episode where Picard lives a full life on the extinct planet in the span of 20minutes.
I would watch tos now but unfortunately i have seen one too many bashir x garak post. I must therefore endure once again the dread of starting a new series, which i usually refrain from when the length is more than a season. I haven't gotten over my imposter syndrom and will therefore not refer to myself as a trekkie.
Ironically the licence that made it cool to be an engineer has made me neglect my actual irl engineering studies. I do realise it is unfair to blame it all on the show given my history of doing anything other than studying when i have to.
As a final point i must express that as a french woman of earth origins i shall pray i never hear another character singing Frère fucking Jacques ever again.
There is poetry in the fact that the only way to buy booster gold funko pop is by buying the set with him and ted
I hate that i watched that episodes months ago but i still remember every sentences
I'm not learning klingon but i want to learn that

We are approaching the maximum of images you can post here so I thought it was time I make a little showcase of all the formation pieces we covered so far on the streams.
For people who don't know: for several months now I draw one formation or fossil locality every Saturday. The next place we visit is chosen by a wheel of names, which we also constantly fill up again when a new formation is picked.
I try to make it as interesting as possible in my composition and choice of animals and I can tell you this series has been a great training when it comes to constructing these, how I call them, Menageries.
I have to thank a team of friends and colleagues who help behind the scenes with research, creation of size charts and conversation partners when it comes to deciding on the compositions of these pieces. Their help has been invaluable!
My favorite thing about Earthsea is it has the fairy type magic where knowing something's true name gives you power over it. The catch though, is that it isn't a convention limited to the fair folk and is a central pillar to all magic in the world, so you end up with people going by the fantasy version of online usernames to avoid giving out their fantasy social security number.
Because of reasons i watched these two episodes within 2 weeks of each other and now i think i might not be okay emotionally
Star trek season 5 ep 23 and Doctor Who season 1 ep 6
#why must you make me cry over living beings who are fused with machines and are meant not to have individuality but because of an accident and some woman's compassion they start to feel and they experience loneliness and now they can never fulfill their sole life mission
#yes i know cybermen are the better analogy
#but there were no cybermen in season one of dw and i've rewatched only that one recently
#Hugh looked back 🥲
#He looked at Geordi one last time
#i'm going to cry
#what is it with Geordi and androids
Update : I think it might be marble from the area, i know a lot of train stations in France like to use local rock to look more like its background.
I couldn't find online which rock it is, but i found the architect and his firm's website so that's cool. It's just going to be one of those things where in a few years i'll take one glance at those pictures and immediatly identify it like " what a dumbass i was those years ago"
But i really wanted to find info online of it's age and origin but :(
Maybe it's the pill for motionsickness (which makes me sleepy and completely high), maybe it's the fact i've had a fever for 3 days or maybe it's because i slept 5h in the last few days but oh boy the floor at my train station is freaking cool i need to know more
It looks like it's loads of bivalves but i'm really bad at identifying even when i'm not tripping

The anger, the boomer joke of "huh my wife amaright", the shot fired at batman, the perfect pose she has, the even more perfect bunny slippers... i can't
WatchingDS9 for the first time and not even an episode in :
Julian bashir : *says literally any thing*
Me : omigodhesoadorableimgonnadiehesjustababyyy
Me : « I don't like dark and gory comics and violent characters. If they kill it'd better be very well justified by the story/character growth»
My favourite character :
