....I totally haven't been on Brick Link scrounging up parts to make Q and a couple of Borg drones.

I'm certainly not giving serious thought to building an accurate minifig scale bridge, from plans, with the same removable wall sections as the real set, or anything crazy like that.

... And even if I did, I'd certainly stop there, not add the ready room, turbo lift, head, conference room, the rest of deck one...... 👀

But which version would I build anyway?

Season 7 looks the best, to my untrained eye.

People who wear sunglasses with cameras in them to create and film "encounters" with authority then claim "POLICE STATE! ORWELLIAN!".

Rage-bate idiots. Look in the mirror.

Because walking around with cameras attached to your face, filming everything and uploading it to Meta's servers is anything but Orwellian, of course.
 
Getting sick of all this AI slop now.

Flicking through Instagram and instead of funny videos, you find synthesised **** instead. Even worse is now when I find a funny video I question if it's even real rather than enjoy it.
 
A couple of days ago, I decided to change the desktop wallpaper on my iPad, from a drawing of obscure webcomic characters pretending to be the TOS crew on the bridge of 1701...... to an LCARS style interface.

(If you are already lost just move on to the next post now)

So I took it a bit further. Now my lock screen and Safari backgrounds are also (different) LACARS interfaces.
I love it. Why did I not do this 15 years ago with my first iPad‽ I finally feel like I'm in the future.
....
Just one problem. Now I'm constantly confused as to what I am looking at. It's all too samey! 🤣

The phrase 'living rent free in your head'.
The even more annoying thing is that you could use this phrase to describe what I feel about said phrase.

Social media has a weird habit of making very specific phrases extremely overused. I’ve always picked up on;
“..And I’m all here for it…”
and
“…The titular character..”
And it isn’t everyone, it is just certain people who say them. All the time.

Tell me about it.

AI has become so pervasive that even the comments are clearly people going "I'll get ChatGPT to make me look smart"

Short, clipped sentences, line breaks rhetorical questions and the "It's not about X, it's about Y" ****. Someone put an end to it please for all our sanity. Oh and don't get me started on LinkedIn "Thought Leaders" who outsource both their thoughts and leadership to AI "What my toddler eating a pizza taught me about the importance KPIs" Come off it lads!
