Don't ever take this site or anything it publishes seriously. It is actively looking to hire people who hate Starfleet Academy to write about it.

As of 8 pm on 10.3.2026, this is live on LinkedIn.

Ask me again why I think the anti-SFA sentiment is manufactured.

8 rejections today. OOF.

I know it's not a measure of my abilities or of me, but it's STILL rough.

Maybe it's because I'm actually FROM small town NH and loathe "Our Town," but I did not care for "The Life of the Stars" at all. It felt like an overwrought filler episode to me and the weakest of the season. Others love it (and that's awesome), but I just didn't. πŸ€·πŸ»β€β™‚οΈ #StarfleetAcademy

I just couldn't watch the State of the Union tonight. I'd see a room full of Republicans cheering and applauding for a RAPIST and a PEDOPHILE that I'd destroy my television. Fuck that whole party. Fuck Trump. Fuck MAGA.

TWO big interviews tomorrow (Tuesday) and both of a technical nature. Those are the ones that usually leave me feeling the most...unsure.

Kash Patel in 2023: β€œI’m just saying Chris Wray doesn’t need a government funded G5 jet to go to vacations. Maybe we ground that plane. $15,000 every time it takes off. Just a thought.”

As much as I like to joke about it, I've always thought that she and Data did it together (after he reroutes power to the lateral thrusters attempting to level their descent) in finest TNG fashion.
