I honestly think the 60s special effects are one of my favorite aspects about TOS. They’re silly and corny and the suspension of disbelief is nonexistent but it wouldn’t be the same without them. That, and also the dramatic lighting in the closeups and the extravagant eye makeup on literally everyone lol.
Usually it’s pretty ok but I remember once being in an online PvP match and windows decided right then it NEEDED to update and started the process. It just went into update mode and restarted (oh so slowly) - my guess is there was a popup that I didn’t see due to being in-game and it just went ahead and overrode whatever I was doing to update.
I think this was honestly my favorite bit of the episode. I thought their honor was challenged just because singing overall, and expected some drinking songs or klingon opera. I was so totally taken off guard by it, it absolutely made the entire episode imo. I barely even remember what it sounded like after the first second because I was laughing so hard.
I’m pretty much also in the boat so thanks for writing out a lot of what I was already thinking, lol.
I absolutely do have some imposter syndrome but what I’ve chosen to do about it is be completely open with others about having it (I don’t advise this if you’re a doctor or something like that, I’m in a creative-and-thereby-totally-subjective field). I found that being open about it or anxieties has in turn made others more open in turn, and it’s made the nagging voice in the back of my head a lot quieter.
My best advice for you OP is to learn to really, truly forgive yourself. For little blunders or whatever else, learning to not beat myself up over mistakes or embarrassment was life-changing in terms of being able to curate a sunnier attitude toward my own self.
I haven’t experienced it (yet) but I saw comments yesterday talking about downvote bombers. Definitely not your imagination.
Same, honestly this might be the one thing that makes me choose Lemmy outright instead of visiting them both. I was SO tired of nsfw “dad” jokes.
Not sure of all the details, but the guy the production hired to give them information on customs/culture to use in the show turned out to be a total sham, for one.
