He's been competing in the Ottawa modelling community for years, so I'm not really surprised that he'd end up making one for display, in a public setting. His attention to detail and willingness to manufacturer necessary parts is amazing.

For those who might be interested, this is the final result of my friend's diorama painting, for the museum.

Contains one thing: Firefly.

Absolutely the same vibe.

Pet Peeve: I really get annoyed at people who essentially talk for a living (TV/radio hosts, politicians...) when they can't understand how to use the expression "can't be over-stated." I just watched video of someone saying "can't be under-stated." OK, stop talking about it then.

Writing something is very different from later portraying what was written. An actor can do a very good job at carrying off the appearance of a character (Tom Holland as Spider-Man), or can screw it up completely (Kevin Costner as Robin Hood), but the writing first needs to be there.

Indeed. Trek quite famously soft sells political/cultural commentary, in many cases. At other times it can be as subtle as a baseball bat to the back of the head. Both can appear in a single episode. EDIT - I can only imagine what a universal translator would make of many Kanji back tattoos.

A lot of the stuff in the various Star Trek properties, that involve going back to the (presentish day) past, can be seen as representing an Earth timeline that's slightly different from ours. Sometimes it's just renaming random things to avoid a lawsuit like not naming the guy who finds a...

And I can absolutely see this point of view, as someone who generally has issues with reboots. I live in hope, for this one.

Yeah, it might have been a bit tough to accept 18 year old Sheridan (played by a 30 year old actor) sleeping his way through the ambassadorial residences, while young Ivanova has trouble deciding whether she wants to be with hunky young Doctor Franklin or low cut dress wearing Delenn, with...

I'd prefer if he kept shopping around the B5 reboot, like he's been doing the last few years. And for me, with my dislike of reboots, that's saying something. The tech is around and he has the previous experience of completing several excellent story arcs, with the continuity assistance of...

"If it's on the Internet, it's free."

I would prefer if it was in western Washington, rather than so close to Spokane, but I do like the isolation and ability to keep out undesirables (aka: "people"). It's the sort of area where parts of "Z-Nation" was shot.

And now I want to win a lottery sooooo badly. https://www.zillow.com/homedetails/50342-Brown-Rd-E-Sprague-WA-99032/2054503719_zpid/

First time that I have to go onto an active construction site since 2018 and my WHMIS certification has expired. Wonderful. Now I need to find out if my org still offers it as online training, so i can re-certify.
