Our confirmed count stands at 8.1 million participants worldwide for yesterday’s No Kings protest. Thank you to everyone who helped verify the numbers through our submission website. While some MAGAs attempted to submit false or misleading data (such as reporting “one person” for major cities)

GOOD NEWS! For the first time ever, Huntington's disease has been successfully treated. A groundbreaking new miRNA treatment, AMT-130, slowed the progression of the disease by 75%. These results are likely to support the first approval of a genetic treatment for the rare neurodegenerative condition.

notice the general mood of the timeline? how everyone is in a good mood and there’s a lot less misery and dooming? how there’s a lot of “we’re going to beat these assholes”?

anyway that’s why these events are important

Dr. Damien P. Williams Wants A Better Sociotechnical Paradigm @wolvendamien.bsky.social · 2d

Remember when i said we're living in the scariest parts of a Gibson novel thanks to a bunch of dudes who misunderstand Gibson's novels?

Well now I want to discuss the verified govt accounts spewing rightwing propaganda— possibly via a bot-run troll farm— & why you should block them for your safety.

Dream blunt rotation is actually just a Vulcan girl night sleep over. Imagine sparking up with T'Lyn, T'Pring, Selar, Saavik, Spock, T'Pol. Which of course turns into a weed fueled lesbian orgy. Vorik is also there & smoking but he's only allowed to watch & whimper. We're using Sarek's bong

A lifelong Star Trek fan, she was inspired by Nichelle Nichols' character Lt. Nyota Uhura to pursue a career in space. LeVar Burton invited her to guest on TNG, and Nichelle Nichols visited her on set. 🖖🏾🚀✨

Nichelle Nichols and Dr. Mae Jemison on the TNG set.

A more recent photo of Dr. Mae Jemison and Nichelle Nichols at a convention, with Nichols giving the Vulcan salute.

Enjoy your Wednesday, #StarTrek friends!
One of the great riddles of all times... 😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣

A screenshot from #StarTrek #StarTrekVoyager, showing on the right a distraught-seeming Doctor looking just past the camera, holding a device in his hands. Sitting on a medbed next to him is Seven of Nine, in a green, leather-like, sleeve-less dress with a plunging neckline. She's looking at the Doctor.
The caption above the picture says, "Why did Voyager's producers continuously team up the most attractive person on the show with..."
Below the picture, it continues, "... Jeri Ryan?"

Hey Trekkies 👉🏿 Happy birthday to Clint Howard, who made his Star Trek debut at age 7 in "The Corbomite Maneuver." Decades later, he appeared on Deep Space Nine, Enterprise, and then decades after that, Discovery and Strange New Worlds.

Even if you just write a paragraph of story it still counts! And all writing is uncomfortable at first I think. But I believe you can do it!!!

It's the Sickos meme only this time it's Spock from Star Trek, and his shirt says "Spocko." He's got his hands up against the window and he's doing the Vulcan salute while saying "Yes... Ha Ha Ha... YES
