Star Trek

Brian Bendall posed this stunning Picard and Riker action figure scene with nothing but the power of patience and balance. If only they did this in the show. Hey, maybe Patrick Stewart is available.

Twitter user _danilo uses an example from Star Trek to explain some of the dangers of having an industry that lacks face-to-face interaction with its own workers. It's scary enough to imagine your job being done by a cold, calculating robot, but what if your boss's job was done by a cold, calculating robot? For something with more Star Trek fun and less technocratic dread, here's an awesome Tumblr post on how hard humans go in Star Trek.

Dr. Tanya Harrison laid out how a lot of us are dealing with self-isolation but in terms of Star Trek: The Next Generation characters. Sadly, more than a few of us are Geordis. For some other Star Trek stuff, here's a discussion of why no one on the Enterprise has pockets, and here are Tumblr's questions about gay Klingons.

Leave it to Tumblr to ask incredibly specific questions about the world of Star Trek and then rationalize the living hell out of them. It's kind like the time Tumblr had questions about gay Klingons. Tumblr asks interesting questions that make for good sci fi, like this thread about an alien invasion fought off by wildlife.

Tumblr gets itself into some interesting rabbit holes regarding the mating habits of fictional creatures, like this Tumblr thread that asks the hard questions about centaurs. Tumblr never runs out of sci-fi concepts and questions, which result in some pretty creative threads like this one about how humans are durable space orcs.

General Picard had some great writers. Take these with you into the world, and maybe pass some wisdom along to others while on your way. 

So much wisdom from the legend Jean-Luc Picard, and so little time. You might just learn something. 

The resulting subtitles are so far off the mark, it's actually kind of amazing. 

Memes that might help you accept certain truths about reality.

The working life can be dreary and supremely frustrating, so take these memes to help you along your way. Sometimes it is just all you can do to make it through one more day of work, one more shift, one more reason you hate your boss and plot is untimely and increasingly extravagant and fantastical demise. 

But enough about that pr*ck, use these work memes or these relatable work memes, to give yourself the nourishment you need to make it through and over the hump, and onto Friday and its glorious memery and freedom.

God I loved this one. Guy reaches out to his photoshop-adept broheme with the hopes of getting his Star Trek meets Cat on a plate wishes granted, and damn does his buddy deliver. The only other piece of information I found myself wanting from this epic tale, was why he needed the plate to begin with. There was an overriding sense of urgency; so, maybe if we're lucky, an update from the OP on that. Otherwise, big ups to the photoshop master in this scenario.
