What gives you a Star Trek vibe without being Star Trek?
Could be from any medium, not just TV and movies. Like if you've got a board game or a role-playing game or a video game or a card game or a ball game or a tracing game or a tangerine game or a book game or a laser game, any of those would work, too.
And there's no need to mention Galaxy Quest or Orville as I am already aware of those.
During a 36h migraine, I drafted a short story with monsters and killing. The muse was with me. If these headaches persist, I’ll have a themed anthology in no time, though if these headaches persist, no time will feel like a million years and shit’s gonna get dark.
a what to call this? a celebration? a tease? a loving tribute? a shitpost chock full of brainworms from Gideon the Ninth (with maybe some very small spoilers, though you wouldn’t know it if you haven’t read it)
Slopnet will be the end of us — not with nukes and cyborgs but with slop, injecting AI slop into every service, operation, utility, everything we rely on. Nobody will notice until municipal grids fail, planes fall from the sky, food supplies dwindle, summers extend year-round, and billions die.
Then the slop-meister trillionaires will gather in their mountain bunker retreat, pop the last bottles of champagne, and toast to their victory over human diversity and compassion.
After a week of feeling crappy, my ME/CFS wasn’t too bad today. However, I decided to take a nap just to recharge my batteries. When I awoke my dizziness and brain fog was much, much worse. It’s almost like my brain didn’t completely wake up and I’m permanentliy groggy. This ever happen to others of you with #mecfs?
@btschumy@mecfs Unrefreshing sleep is a common symptom anyway but today maybe the crash was still coming on when you went down for a nap?
There’s always a lag for me between aggravating event (standing too long, sitting up too long, too much exertion or elevated heart rate ) and onset of PEM crash, usually a day-ish. But so often it catches me up short and I’m like wtf did I do?
The hardest thing about #MECFS is gauging how I’m doing. Either I’m in pain and fog, or not. Argh!
