@koushiniku the further right i went the harder it was to figure out how to line them up!

@tillybridges I decided one day to translate the lyrics from Stairway to Heaven into elvish runes. I drew it on a really big paper and hung it on my wall in my teenage years. I wish I still had it now!

@tillybridges I had an Escher print, can't remember which one exactly, perhaps Relativity.

I've always had odd perspectives I guess.

@tillybridges I think that is fucking great! How big was itinthe end and I expect it grew over time?
Show thread🌈 Tilly Bridges ✨Jun 23
@spohnz no this was as big as it ever got, there was no more room. I don't know how wide it was exactly, but it legit did take up one entire wall. my room wasn't huge so maybe... 8 feet?

@tillybridges No love for Guinan?
(Edit: nvm, there's a theme and I don't know who tended bar on the others.)
Show thread🌈 Tilly Bridges ✨Jun 23
@_the_cloud I love Guinan but she was more a guest star than even a recurring character like Nog or Ro. I only had so much room and one more would have been too much (and had no other analogue in the other shows). So i was trying to stick to mains. Alas, it couldn't ever possibly cover everyone
Show thread🌈 Tilly Bridges ✨Jun 23
@_the_cloud I mean that would have been Quark and technically Neelix, but that would have left Troi out. And Troi was a main cast member, as were Quark and Neelix, and Guinan wasn't even part-time, just a guest

@tillybridges Interior bedroom door was covered top to bottom with a full size Zombie MJ that freaked out every person who ever went to leave the room in the dark.

@tillybridges In college our lab had a huge multipage printout of an ascii Spock I searched the analog world for...

Pick one up on eBay for 150 now,

but I eventually just wrote code to make my own. (wonder where that code went.)

@tillybridges

Thinking of reprinting these from 1976 Creative Computing to go on the wall by the hand calligraphy Henson and Labyrinth prints.

Guess I just like letters.

Show threadAlyssa VoroninJun 25

@tillybridges You almost have the TNG cast ordered by rank. Depending on the season, Troi could go with the Commanders, and Wesley would be with or below Ro.

DS9 and Voyager don't have as clean a hierarchy, with the Bajoran military, civilians of all stripes, the Maquis, and one errant XB.

I know that wasn't the goal, but I have a dumb, pattern-seeking monkeybrain, so that's the kind of thing that pops out at me. 😅
