My subconscious loves to bewilder me. The other night was a dream all about travel. What’s weird is that the first part involved my former boss as we took a trip in their car, with no apparent destination. I have no idea where we where headed, but I enjoyed the conversation and banter along the […]
No, this is not a play on My Little Pony and Doctor Who. THIS MAKES PINKIE PIE SAD! If there’s one rule in this house, it’s DO NOT MAKE PINKIE PIE SAD!!! Ahem. So this is all about my little girl. The arrival of a female Doctor in Doctor Who has proven inspirational to her. […]
If you, like me, consider yourself to be a Trekkie and you keep an eye on the latest news surrounding the franchise, you might be familiar with a recent claim by one ‘Anas Abdin’, regarding Star Trek Discovery and plagiarism. His tweet is below: https://twitter.com/AnasAbdin/status/1031936012942028801 I am not necessarily without sympathy here, as at first […]
The blocked out word is one I hate using but it’s a very crude expletive, for those who are wondering. I don’t particularly care for the sentiment expressed by the tweet this ‘John’ is replying to, but the grossly offensive remarks by Mr Price and his subsequent attitude when challenged, is exactly the sort of […]
Hot on the heels of this post, comes another terrific example of the Star Trek fandom’s problem with gatekeeping – I’ve plucked only three tweets, but there are plenty more from this guy. He’s actually inspired a video for my YouTube channel, which delves further into this murky set of ideas. That’s like saying you […]

I’m on a long train ride and I need to occupy my mind, so here goes with some more thoughts on Star Trek Discovery and the attitude towards the show of some elements of the fandom. I recently started stumbled upon an article written by a Twitter user by the name of Skrishna. https://twitter.com/skrishna/status/937793666093023232 Now, […]
Insta-follow! Watch out for the vicious STD trolls, though. (#Tardifan don't like when you point out the #StarTrekReboot isn't #TrueTrek). — ST-v-SW.Net (@STvSW) November 3, 2017 Following on from conversations mentioned here and here, comes a slightly more revealing look at the animosity that’s on display toward not only Star Trek Discovery, but also its […]
(A scene from Star Trek Discovery, the latest televised Star Trek) (a clip from the trailer for The Last Jedi) In TV/movie franchise circles, there is a buzz word for what is and isn’t considered a part of the story. That word is ‘canon‘. If something is canon, it ‘counts’ toward the story and be […]
Breached the 70K mark on my wip! Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!
This is just sheer absolute, exquisite beauty.
I have eaten too much pizza.
I don't think it's up to you to decide what's best for women, nor whether or not men can find them attractive...
Ever since I was a cub, I have generally speaking been fond of swimming. I don’t do it often, but when I do, I enjoy it. I consider myself a reasonably confident swimmer, and I have few qualms about going out into the sea when at the beach (well, when I’m somewhere warm, with clear […]
