They are not easy to grow. And they are male and female so you have to have both for fruits. I don’t know the ratio, or much beyond that, I’ve never gotten a pod to sprout…

K so I helped build that transporter room. And I helped build the one we built inside it because this one didn’t look star-trek enough. Look closely at the Discovery’s transporter room.

Also fun story: when I was working on this (with hundreds of others) one job that took forever was the rectangular black tiles that make up the back wall. I spent days, I think it was close to 1500 of them, plywood laminated to some sort of firm sound foam, run through the table saw for each of the beveled edges… Carefully mounted to this bracket thing that the welding guys must have built. It was one of the earliest sets they wanted done, and they ended up using it for some early promo pictures of our hero…

One of the earliest released shots of Michael were in the transporter room, and dead centre behind her on the wall of a hundred tiles, is one super crooked tile. I can’t find the pic right now, but it’s obvious… I don’t know how nobody saw it during the shoot, or at least in post…

I facepalmed so hard. All our hard work and we looked like we hired a toddler last minute.

Ended up using dog shampoo while staying at my parents place for 2 weeks. It made my hair weird but how I figured it out was it was in one of those clear bottles with the picture on the inside behind the semi clear aqua blue shampoo. So when I picked it up for the 6th time I actually tilted it passed the point where I could see “Shampoo” and up to what I thought would be wheat or yellow flowers.

My partner went to a convention in another city. He was caught off guard by the number of dudes in leather and fetishwear that he saw around the hotel when he first arrived but just thought the city must have a diverse and adventurous night life.

The next morning on his way out he spotted a poster, it was “The Bear Ball” weekend, some disco themed big gay guy event, and the hotel he was in was the headquarters, which explains why most of the other attendants of his conference were being housed in a different hotel.

He said he had some great people watching for the next couple days.

I am not an American, but doesn’t America separate church and state? Like as one of the base rules? I know they are constantly pushing that boundary (for the “good” religions that is) but isn’t this just a “nope, state can’t send money to that.”

It’s seems pretty straight forward… What mental gymnastics are being used to get around that pesky fundamental cornerstone of the US Constitution?

A lot of comments here have what I assume are non-functional spoiler tags…" < ! " without the space…But they don’t make the bars appear, like some other spoiler tagged comments.

Ah yes. Makes sence I didn’t recall who he was fighting, just some simple tailor.

What about the shot that made it into the final cut where Worf and someone are fighting and he knocks a hole in the set and it’s just wood?

Oh I remember we had a big bag of rainbow cookies one time and they made you gay, and the only gay guy in school was eatting them but they were apparently really good so we figured out if you just ate an even number you’d end up back straight again.

Twas a simpler time.
