I saw this screenshot posted on a Star Trek Discord server today and really liked it. A little digging turned up the original post and reply on Tumblr: https://roach-works.tumblr.com/post/739090278705774592/it-used-to-bother-me-that-all-the-art-in-star-trek

ELECTRO TECHNO LOVE DISPENSER

it used to bother me that all the art in star trek was really mediocre. the paintings are banal and poorly executed. the music was bland. the games were all sort of slow and lame. but like. now it...

@djwudi Truly revolutionary. You can tell what a deeply subversive idea this is because in our culture it reads as silly.
@james @djwudi Can I quote you on that?

@drwho @djwudi Sure. I would generally consider anything posted to Mastodon a public statement. Nice to get attribution though.

Wait! Are you gonna screenshot me and post it to Reddit?! 😂

@james @djwudi No, I want to copy this into my ~/.plan file, which I upload to my website periodically (https://drwho.virtadpt.net/drwho.plan.txt)

I don't like quoting people who aren't okay with attribution, because we live in a world that Cardinal Richelieu would have jizzed himself over.

@james @djwudi if you like this kind of utopia you may enjoy some of the Iain M. Banks _Culture_ series.
