He doesn’t want to hear because he is known for blurting things out to media and fans…

Came here to say this! THE WHITE BELTS!

If they’re in primary school, start them off on Odd Squad.

It’s a madcap Canadian TVO Kids (TV Ontario) public broadcaster educational math show that was made with partner funding from PBS in the United States, and is now available online in many other countries.

The creators and writers clearly knew and referenced Star Trek.

‘The Trouble with Centigurps’ ’ episode is a straight up Tribble Trouble homage with skip counting.

Here’s a season one Odd Squad trailer.

Thanks for the heads up.

I can see that there might be a need to ensure some consultation in a sub, such as a notice period. Especially so for users that might wish to delete their post and comment history before a sub goes NSFW or private, but this is just another step.

As if being an early adopter in selling all their content to train LLMs wasn’t enough to justify avoiding the place.

Ok, what I’m seeing in this picture is Coneheads.

Here’s another take.

We know that everything was reshaped to flatter and entice Patrick Stewart to come back and play Picard.

He kept refusing and keep on insisting on Picard’s life should be a reflection of his own.

But the suits at ViacomCBS (and later Paramount) put priority on greenlighting anything they could get with Picard as a character.

So, whatever initial concepts with and without Picard were all sacrificed in the end in order to indulge Stewart enough to play the role.

It’s absurd. Our kids ended up playing Star Trek with Playmobil’s space and ‘Future Planet’ planetary exploration lines. (I doubt these even still exist.)

When the Star Trek line finally arrived it was only TOS.

All of which begs the question “How is it that Jeff Goldblum has not yet appeared in the Star Trek franchise”

And this is why Discovery and other new shows are only getting 5 seasons.

Contracts are for 7 calendar years not seven seasons.

With problems launching new shows, COVID-related slowdowns and a writers strike, Discovery managed to produce 5 seasons in 7 years.

I was thinking the same.

Fine crochet cotton comes in a large variety of colours and many of them can be quite bright.

Diamond yarns Cléa (and their fine knitting weight cotton Anne) have always had colours like that, including variegated versions. Both of these are made by Circulo in Brazil.

Cléa colours can be found on this distributors page. The ‘Citrus Green’ looks very much like the photo. There is also a high-res Lemon and at least 3 different high res orange to red varieties.

I used to knit and crochet a lot with the fingering weight Anne. I was able to ask a local yarn store to bring in additional colours that I chose as long as I would buy enough of the bag of balls.

Other mercerized cottons for crochet have interesting colours and shiny finishes as well.
