An xkcd classic - didn’t even need to look at it. That’s a good reminder.

Yes! Finally! Someone else doing some Prodigy memes, especially crazy Wesley ones. Here’s some of mine (previously exclusive to c/risa):
(Note that last panel is meant to convey my excitement at Wesley’s reappearance.)
And another Prodigy meme, conveying what I love about Trek:
This is in the first 50 Google Image Search results for “DS9 meme”.
A classic, but one I’ve seen before.
I have a pair of socks and pants with this on it.
Why does that look like Alexander Rozhenko but middle aged and with a drinking problem spurred by his traumatic childhood?
Part of me wants to create a content fork of Memory Alpha that's independently hosted. A couple years ago, I was messing with creating an LCARS skin, but didn't get beyond a really janky proof of concept (https://gitlab.com/dexcube/lcars-mediawiki-skin); knowing more about MediaWiki skins now and wanting to redesign this for usability, I would probably rewrite this from the ground up now.
However, part of me also wants to do a wiki for the band Cheekface, since it doesn't have much in the way of online documentation and their back catalog is getting larger. Also, even relatively in-depth coverage of the band is a much smaller undertaking than managing decades of canon.
I've long wanted to make Shaxs ear rings, although I only have a red Lower Decks uniform right now because I did Boimler last year, and I've toyed with the idea of reusing it to do a Vendome this year (probably won't happen, honestly), so it'll be a while before I can rationalize getting another Starfleet uniform.
Wasn’t sure how good this would be, but that was rather fun.
I was tempted to diss the banjo ship for being too generic a space ship, but it’s just so well executed I can’t.
Now, I what I really think we need is a full orchestra arrangement of “Faith of the Heart” done in a full orchestra arrangement like a classic theme. All there is right now is the crappy MIDI where they just changed a few instruments but didn’t change the arrangement.
I thought for a split second this was just a repost of the one with Chief O’Brien, but was pleasantly surprised.
Frankly, I lack an understanding of the disdain for "All I Want For Christmas Is You" - I have heard much more annoying Christmas songs. It may be a bit cloying and heavily pop, but I think it's well executed, at least compared to almost any Christmas song put out by a major artist in the 21st century. Also, I think My Chemical Romance pulled off a rather good cover that perhaps beats the original.
Maybe part of it is I have a 5 hour personal/family Christmas playlist that reduces the amount of repeated listens to a more manageable degree. In addition to more well-known ones and several covers, it is also filled to the brim with alternative and indie Christmas music - Jonathan Coulton especially is good at making atypical holiday songs that don't get annoying.
And then there’s an entire universe of memes just from the episode where Dal and Janeway bodyswap - already seen several.
