For the last few months, the ship has been in a holding pattern. In other words, not much has happened of note. Nonetheless, I write here because this blog is the only place I can actually discuss how I feel, memorialize the recent past and share some of the ideas in my head since IContinueContinue reading “Captain’s Blog: Stardate 02172026.7”

Commander Tino’s Blog: Stardate 02132026.1
The following is officer Tino’s first post on this blog! Hopefully there are more to come. Honestly I’m a little frustrated about life sometimes, because it feels like it can attack you in so many little ways it starts to all pile up. I used to make a lot of instagram stories venting about myContinueContinue reading “Commander Tino’s Blog: Stardate 02132026.1”

Many decide to join Starfleet in order to travel the universe and do the right thing. I think that, over time, most realize how difficult it is to discern what truly is good, evil, and the many permutations in between them. To save myself time, I made a comprehensive list of traits I think areContinueContinue reading “Captain’s Blog: Stardate 01122026.4”

Federation scientists sometimes spend their entire careers studying a single animal, hoping to understand where it came from, what shaped it over time, what its genes reveal, how it interacts with its ecosystem and vice versa. Sometimes, this process leads to some surprising connections. Officer Bella fighting off a Horta from swallowing her! Someone studyingContinueContinue reading “Captain’s Blog: Stardate 12222025.8”
Counselor Troi’s Office: Session 9
Me: Hey Troi. So…about that hexagonal energy creature… Is he still single? Troi: Yeah. Me: Where does he live? Taken by Officer Tino Troi: Not too far. He lives on 16 Cygni B b in the Cygnus Region. That’s only about 21 parsecs from you. Me: That’s really far!!! Troi: Only for pre-warp civilizations. OhContinueContinue reading “Counselor Troi’s Office: Session 9”
Captain’s Blog: Stardate 10302025.7
I was at my comms station and couldn’t believe my eyes. I came across my old logs (diary)! I wrote there from Stardate 05312001 until Stardate 08172009. I had no idea how cringe, depressed and religious I was back then. Officer Tino means business! I feel somewhat conflicted about linking the recovered logs here. IContinueContinue reading “Captain’s Blog: Stardate 10302025.7”
Captain’s Blog: Stardate 10032025.9
Once upon a time, a captain could look at her sensors and trust the data displayed on her console. Nowadays, one must skeptically examine any incoming digital information since it can be faked, heavily biased and/or de-contextualized. (And this is why I use Ground News. Just kidding!!) The Bodega sector is lovely Perhaps even moreContinueContinue reading “Captain’s Blog: Stardate 10032025.9”
Off The Record
Listen to this Episode There’s so much I want to say but I don’t know where to begin. I’ve deleted dozens of sentences trying to find just the right intro. I’m just going to begin writing and see where it goes. The first thing on my mind is yesterday’s (08012025) family fun night. We hadContinueContinue reading “Off The Record”
Captain’s Blog: Stardate 06092025.4
Listen to this episode One of the most sought out phenomena in the entire galaxy is love. Many holonovels (movies), video games and LCARS subroutines (apps) revolve around finding lifelong companionship. For a growing minority, a screen and their imagination will be the closest they come to experiencing true intimacy. Yet, even when love isContinueContinue reading “Captain’s Blog: Stardate 06092025.4”
Counselor Troi’s Office: Session 8
Troi: Christeana, its good to see you! Me: Really? Troi: Yeah, my shuttle craft payment is almost due and now I don’t have to worry about that payment since our session will help pay for it and then some! Me: After I’m done talking with you you’ll wish that you found another way to payContinueContinue reading “Counselor Troi’s Office: Session 8”
