Yeah I am a bit biased and chose the Anthony Rapp/Michelle Hurd photo first but look at this!
I’m sure there are tons more but I’m grabbing them from this Rolling Stone article. Turns out Rapp is even a member on the negotiating committee.
You just gotta love seeing Trek actors sharing the same strength as their characters. Makes me feel all tingly. I hope this strike ends soon and not so we get more Trek sooner but so these amazing people get what they are rightfully owed.
Hell yeah. We’ll reach our Federation, one step at a time.
Let’s just hope this doesn’t roll right into the Bell Riots
Oh yeah that’s supposed to be 2024, isn’t it? DS9 and Enterprise are bottom of my list when it comes to how familiar I am with them. A shitload of treknobabble filtered through and stuck for some reason but not much else.
Yep, September 2024
That’s pretty soon…
We’re already in a different timeline though because we haven’t had the eugenics wars
I’m just tired of the waiting. Let’s get it on already!
I thought the writer’s strike had been resolved, but the actors were still being shafted. Have writers gone back to striking in solidarity?
If it’s only SAG-AFTRA then I think it’s just actors.
Yeah, the WGA strike is done, with 99% of its members approving the new contract.
Yeah I am stupid and put the wrong thing in because I was talking in a party with someone else and totally misunderstood what I was reading. Fix’d. Sorry bout that
Once nice Lemmy feature is that unlike certain other sites, it’s possible to edit post titles if you want to.
Yeah and I am very happy about that. I remember when @[email protected] pointed it out to me. Life saver. Both the feature and Teft
The downside is that you can’t read the URL.
Also, every instance assigns its own unique number to every post and comment, so you can’t easily move from one instance to another (unless someone from the target instance has commented, then you can use their federated link). We really should have the number defined by the host instance, then every other instance could be
/post/number.it is generally possible to find the post on another instance through the search, at least through the default web interface. there is certainly a lot of room for improvement though.
adam ruins everything did a video on it.
Nah, all the good writers already settled.
I think you’re confused, this is about the Screen Actors Guild which is a completely separate union from the Writers Guild of America. Both guilds went on strike but only the WGA has agreed to a deal with the AMPTP so far.

Hey, Space Jesus “Star Trek has the force now, but as some sort of fungus” is not Star Trek
nu trek bad, applause please
Nu Trek not Bad. Strange new worlds and lower decks good. Netflix Spore bullshit bad
Netflix washed their hands of it after the first season.
Really the correct takeaway from this is that bad writers are bad at writing good Star Trek, good writers are bad at writing bad Star Trek
I just had a look at Star Trek Prodigy… Holy smokes what a shitshow
No idea I’ve never found a legal way to watch it. Anyway it’s aimed at kids isn’t it weird target audience but there you go.
We’re talking exclusively about Lower Decks and Strange New Worlds being good. No idea about the other stuff.
Although apparently Picard picks up so I might try watching it again
Really dude?
First off, you don’t get to decide what is Star Trek and what is not Star Trek.
Second, that analogy about it being the force is broken as hell and I have some duct tape and a hyperspanner to fix it if you want.
Third, you look at this post seeing the actors striking and your FIRST thought and reaction is to go "Oh I know! I’m going to instead shit on the show and insult it while literally ignoring every single part of the post talking about representation.
You can not like the show all you want. That’s fine. There are plenty of shows I don’t like. But you don’t get to decide what’s canon and it’s also pretty insanely tone deaf to insult the shit out of the show, the actor, and gatekeep Star Trek considering Trek stands for shit like inclusion and different representation and different spectrums and different sides.
This kind of behavior is just kinda gross in general but especially nasty when you consider what Trek is about.
Edit: Sorry. Got a bit angy. Just really really tired of this take and I’m a bit hangry this morning.
But what about horrific violence and gore? Clearly that’s what has been missing from Star Trek all these years.
Violence? Magic fungus? DAT SOUNDS PROPPA ORKY
Honestly they are on the wrong side. It really sucks but it is where the world is going
How are they on the wrong side?
They’re not bowing down to their capitalist overlords, that’s how!
The nerve of the fuckin’ plebs, where is the world going to
Joke about it all you want but its unlikely to change anything in the long term

Not really. Or at least not really when your oppressor/aggressor is much bigger and stronger than you are.
You understand what uprisings are right? Or do you think we all live in Kingdom still
Best just lie down and take it then?
