I worked hard at imitating the Leonard Nimoy Spock’s raised eyebrow for quite a while. I don’t regret the time spent practicing that in front of a mirror. I never mastered a fully raised eyebrow, but I can do a slight eyebrow raise.

Jean-Luc Picard’s “make it so” is a go to phrase for me.
My first sip of coffee for the day is always my Janeway moment.
When someone says something far fetched, I say “really.” I think I’m channeling Benjamin Sisko. No one else sees it that way.
I say “p’takh” a bit too often. Not to anyone who understands Klingon. Not yet, anyway.
Any Star Trek mannerism or phrase you’ve incorporated into your life?
Exploitation begins at home
Once you have their money, you never give it back.
The price for peace is at an all time low
Greed is eternal.

Do you think they’ll be able to save us from corporations owning the internet?
Corporations built the internet I don’t see how you get rid of them but maybe we can build a network beside it that people willing to learn can use
