What's this I'm hearing that one of the late queen's ladies-in-waiting went off on a black guest because even though she and her parents were born in England, a black woman couldn't possibly be truly British? Sounds like at least some of what #MeganMarkle has been insisting is turning out to be right on the money.

#startrek Voyager's lifeboats are too small. You'd get only two people in one, and they'd better be VERY good friends. 1701-E's are too big. So, once again, I went back to 1701-D. The TNG 4m cube-shaped lifeboat holds a standard 6 crew with a jump seat for a 7th. The 8th, I'm replacing with a fold-out toilet/cleaning station. Also, still a WIP, drawn with #SketchUp 2017.

I modeled the Andronicus' warp core on that from Enterprise-D. It should have been on Voyager's since the Andronicus' launch date is stardate 83445.87 in 2409, but the Voyager warp core is too "simple." I wanted more detail. So I went with the more segmented structure of the 1701-D. But I redesigned the antimatter pods.

My ship, the USS Andronicus, based on Voyager's Rhode Island, drawn with SketchUp 2017, the last free standalone PC client before Trimble went web based. Still a WIP. I don't like the way that the hull's lifeboat hatches turned out.

#introduction Well, first off, I'm terrible at essay questions. I'm a Trekkie (1972) and a Browncoat (2003). I collect tarot decks (for the art, I don't read tarot), and chopstick sets. I'm a CSAM certified IT Asset Manager with 18 years in the industry. Right now, I'm a civilian contractor working on a military contract. #videogames (WoW, SWTOR, Star Trek Online, and No Man's Sky). I'm divorced and engaged. Just a liberal atheist stuck in Charleston SC, watching the world go crazy around me.
