“You know, she solved you. The ‘mascot.’ Watson. She diagnosed your condition earlier this evening. She realized the real reason you could never quite bring yourself to kill me.”

Sherlock Holmes cannot outsmart Irene Adler.
But Joan Watson can.

i know sulu is obviously the coolest guy on the enterprise and all but seriously, in the new movie? HE WAS SUPER SUPER COOL. DEFINITELY THE COOLEST.

You could say that John Cho is first in the end credits because of alphabetical order.
I say the end credits are in alphabetical order so that John Cho can be first.

“Uhura never had another name during the series. One of the fan writers wrote “Upenda” – which means “peace” in Swahili, I understand – not officially, but in some of their fan writings. And it sort of took hold. But when they were going to do the official history of Star Trek in a published book, the writer called Gene and asked him was “Uhura” her first name or her last name? Gene said, “Well, Nichelle and I never decided.” We always leaned towards it being her last name because it’s taken from the Swahili “uhuru” which means freedom. So it would sort of be like the same as “Freeman.” So he said, “You can make it her last name.” The writer said, “What about her first name? I’ve come up with one in Swahili. It’s Nyota.” Gene said, “I can’t give you that permission because Nichelle and I named her together, and she has rights to that, so you’ll have to call her and get her permission.” So he gave him my number, and he called me and I laughed and was delighted. He said, “I have a name and it’s Nyota.” I said, “That’s quite beautiful. What does it mean?” He said, “It means ‘star’.” I said, “You can have my permission!” So I have since said that her name is Nyota Upenda Uhura, which would mean a free-floating star: “star of freedom and peace”. I like that.”— NICHELLE NICHOLS

In not too many years, Texas could switch from being all Republican to all Democrat. If that happens, no Republican will ever again win the White House. New York and California are for the foreseeable future unalterably Democrat. If Texas turns bright blue, the Electoral College math is simple … The Republican Party would cease to exist. We would become like the Whig Party. Our kids and grandkids would study how this used to be a national political party. ‘They had Conventions, they nominated Presidential candidates. They don’t exist anymore.

The answer, my friend, is blowing in the wind. (Except in New Jersey where what’s blowing in the wind smells funny.)

Dear Shaw,
I LOVE YOUR FACE.
And your snark.
And your badassery.
But the aforementioned snark and badassery are contained within your face, so I love it.
