Staring at Star Trek maps TO FIGURE OUT WHERE THE FUCK EVERYTHING IS

(from this blog )

If you flip the Cardassian symbol on its side, it actually kinda looks like the shape of the Cardassian union!

While not perfect, this book (“Star Trek: Star Charts”) is just so full of yummy awesomeness in a fanboy way.  Cause finally, you could make more sense of the Trek universe than ever before.  Even if some choices didn’t make any sense or something contradicted itself.  The maps have since been adopted by pretty much anyone/everyone when needed.

I even re-created this one with some heavy modifications for a never-got-off-the-ground PBEM RPG I was going to do. 

Star Trek Online used these as a source, I think. Well, until they went to the Delta Quadrant and decided to compress 7 years and 70,000 light years into 2 sector grids of 3 sectors each… :S

It’s nice knowing where stuff is though.  It gives it… dimension?

Astute reader Brandon Z pointed out that the Klingon exchange program covered in Sins of the Father showed the “Riker on a Klingon ship” half of the exchange in this episode. As Brandon puts it:

“You’ll get some Klingon fashion, a guide to Klingon cuisine, and Riker and Picard at a phaser firing range – other than that it’s uniforms.  And Riker indeed gets punched in the face, though it is the Klingon ladies that hit on him.”

GET IT, KLINGON LADIES.

So the episode starts with this quintessential Riker/Wesley shot:

“Don’t take the smaller criminal charges lightly – even after they execute you for the big ones, they’ll still put your corpse in jail for the other crimes, so even if you get resurrected, you’ll still be in jail. It’s common sense, really.”

Today I was talking to my dad and I referred to myself as his son(I’m genderfluid btw) and he said
“Today’s a Son day huh?”
And I was like “yeah”
And he was like “huh, I thought today was a Saturday, not a Sunday”
And I just laughed for like 5 minutes

lolllll oh dad jokes.

Our world is in peril. Gaia, the spirit of the Earth, can no longer stand the terrible destruction plaguing our planet. She gives five magic rings to five special young people. From Africa, Kwame with the power of earth. From the North America, Wheeler with the power of fire. From the Soviet Union, Linka with the power of wind. From Asia, Gi with the power of water and from South America, Ma-Ti with the power of heart. With the five powers combined they summon earth’s greatest champion – CAPTAIN PLANET!

#Captain Planet #my childhood #I used to watch this at 5:30AM while waiting to see the sunrise #mostly for Linka #I was born and raised in a post-Soviet world #and I thought it was *fascinating* to see a show that just casually treated the existence of the Soviet Union as a *thing*
