Last night at Sir Patrick Stewart's book launch, he told Whoopi Goldberg & the audience that 30 years ago, it was sugggested he to go to therapy. He went for 25 years & said it was the best thing he did for himself.
Memo to toxic nerd men: CAPTAIN PICARD SAYS GO TO THERAPY! 🖖🏻
I had grand plans to tweet more from the London

convention, but tasks with the Captain kept me extremely busy! But not so busy that I couldn’t get a selfie with Kate & my fave member of Team Disco, Mary Wiseman

Whenever I see anyone sh!t on Tilly, I automatically know what kind of fan/person they are and I discount them and their trash opinions completely going forward.
Hint: It is almost entirely straight men with zero self awareness & low emotional IQ.
#StarTrekDiscovery
This is the most real thing that has ever been said by a woman in the MCU and frankly I am mad it took until the year of our lord 2022 but so glad it was Tatiana that said it! 💜
LOUDER FOR THE BROS IN THE BACK
It appears that Vic M has been removed from Creation’s website as a planned guest. Very pleased! I am thankful for everyone who reached out in some form and added their voice in support of women. A small victory but all steps forward are important!
Me and Murf are very sad & sending all our love to the
#StarTrekProdigy
team, who made a gorgeous, heartfelt show. 💔
Really disappointed in
@paramountplus
for pulling the existing 20 episodes from the service, that is NOT ok.
I can't believe Grey's Anatomy was just renewed for its TWENTY-FIRST season and we can't get another season of:
- Our Flag Means Death
- A League of Their Own
- GLOW
- Ted Lasso
- Hannibal
- Firefly (still mad, even if JW is an a-hole)
Ugh.
I know there are a lot of feelings about this week's episode of
#StarTrekPicard
(tagged for those who have it muted). First is my non-spoiler take: I thought everyone involved gave very strong performances, especially Jeri Ryan, and I find Picard's inner journey compelling.
Did my fellow Trekkies know that the artists/production designers whose work is featured in "Art of..." books don't get paid for the use of their art?
The art teams don't even get a copy sent to them. Of their own work.
Way to go, movie/TV studios once again 🙄 bc that sucks.

Many thanks to the Star Trek Continues team that has now officially spoken out to condemn harrassment and doxxing - this statement comes directly after my extremely negative experience with this person’s fan base. The more voices, the better. Love to my

As I told someone recently, declining to work with them because I know they are routinely inappropriate with women isnt "starting a campaign" against them. I can choose to work with you or not...and advise others of my opinions in private, letting them decide as well.

What timing! I'm staying in the Westgate (formerly the Hilton) and check it out - the entrance to the Promenade still exists!! I am gonna try to go in and take a selfie 🖖🏻

I am adopted; I saw her post and was confused. If I can't have kids, I want to adopt. I'd never ignore an adopted child's heritage, either. I'd make sure to honor their culture.
Not all adopted people have intense trauma around being adopted - she is projecting.
A very happy birthday to the Admiral & reigning Queen of

As the Irish say - Sláinte! 🥂
Vulcans are the walking personification of "men would rather practice intense emotional suppression via logic than go to therapy" which is why Spock just needs hugs. (Men need hugs too but mostly I want to nerve pinch them into oblivion!)
Please take a minute to read this short thread of my thoughts regarding

because I know they stand for integrity & support victims of sexual harassment.
Finally here at The Captain Janeway Statue in Bloomington, looking forward to the festivities tomorrow!
A beautiful, warm (76°, what!) fall day in Indiana, and the statue is right next to the Wonderlab science center. Perfect for this badass lady of STEM 🔭🔬🍁🍂☀️
I must conclude with a nod to the powerhouse trio of

Happy Pride!
No idea why we're deciding who in this country gets to have rights. I hope all the right wingers opposed to trans people have glitter dumped on them by drag queens!

Hey
#StarTrek
fam! I am feeling apprehensive about attending the Vegas con in less than 2 weeks. Are you? Do we think they should postpone? I am fully vaxxed & following mask rules but damn if this Delta variant isn’t a huge barrier to us having safe Trekkie fun. Sigh.
I wanted to let everyone know that I’ve decided not to attend the
#StarTrek
in Las Vegas. Coupled with a recent health issue that is thankfully on the mend, I am going to stay in Connecticut, where we’re highly vaxxed. Let’s just encourage everyone do the group project this time.
If you're going to the premiere of
#StarTrekPicard
on Feb 9 - see you there!!! 💜🚀🖖😱✨
Thank you to

Seeing a lot of comments about the main stage hosts

#StarTrekCHI
last weekend. I've hosted 80+ panels, big & small, overwhelmingly on
#StarTrek
. Host choice rests with ReedPop, & I agree we need hosts at Trek cons that know their subject thoroughly. That said...
I’d like to applaud the LA Comic Con team for taking attendee & fan concerns seriously, and acting on them. Believing women is imperative for creating positive change & hosting safe events to foster the fun moments that happen at cons. Thank you & have a great event!
A very happy birthday to the epic
@NanaVisitor

every day in this crazy world. Can't wait to see you in Vegas next week!
Another epic backstage moment at STLV: telling Mary Wiseman how much I love and admire her, and thanking her for repping tall curvy girls in Trek! She is incredibly gracious and lovely, and gave me a big hug. 💜

“Guys...where are we??” This is honestly the best pilot I have ever seen by far. Residents of Oahu thought a real plane had crashed and were calling 911 during filming. Impressive and changed the face of TV! ✈️🏝🦢

"fans" being total jerks about Discovery getting cancelled. Not your fave Trek? Fine. Don't be obnoxious. IDIC. 🖖🏻
I'll miss Disco a lot 💜 a great crew!
This post is dedicated to my bitchy mother, who I hadn't seen in person in 3 years. This weekend she told me I was fat, read the sugar content of my drink out loud to me, & has sent rude text messages & weight loss articles to me since I got home.
😘
Second & final page of my thoughts on this important issue. All of the court documentation, including statements of victims, are gathered here at this reddit thread:
...goes on to be a great leader. Her overcoming tragedy makes her a more empathetic leader. If you hate this choice for Picard's backstory, I ask you to think about why you hate it. Trauma is part of life and rarely are we untouched by tragedy. Our stories should reflect that.
While very pleased about SNW, I am deeply sad they cancelled Lower Decks, leaving 5 seasons/50 eps. I love LD & the team behind it is top tier! It really seems like Paramount is winding down this group of shows due to financial struggles. I hope the franchise finds a good home.🖖🏻
They aren't pretty or happy, nor has "Gene's vision" ever shown a future free of trauma. Look at the burden Pike bears. Kirk says he needs his pain. We watched Spock die, Data die, Dax die. All in utterly heartbreaking ways. These stories shape us and how we cope with death.
