      I was going to mention the furry from the animated series, there’s an episode she literally goes “uwu”

    Well, it’s actually already canon. And the CMO of the Cerritos is Caitian.

      TIL - thanks!

      In terms of my post, I was interested in the Khajit specifically, as I think the extensive specifics written of both their culture and their variant morphology would make for some incredible storytelling and plotlines. It’s one thing to meet the parents when your girlfriend is Caitian… quite another if she’s Khajit.

      Mom could be looking like this:

      …while Dad is looking at you like:

    But the Ferengi already exist and everyone’s already banned them from peddling their wares in Imperial cities and strongholds.

      Haven’t seen those, so wouldn’t know… I’m more interested to see what the Federation would do with the Khajit as they exit in Elder Scrolls - all of the different morphologies - from the giant Senche-Tigers to the tiny Alfiq.

      I’d also really dig seeing a throwdown between a Klingon and a Pahmar-raht:

        Oh well check the Animated Series out they have at least 1 crew member who is adjacent to this. No idea about any lore on it though. On a related note though Bethesda needs to let us go to to Elsweyr already.

          Animated series, movies, tng, ds9, lower Decks… Most of the shows, really.

          They’re usually background characters in live action since it’s not really easy to make them look realistic and believable up close.

              The most surprising one was in the TOS movies there’s one at a bar. I only noticed it last year.

              I’ve recently started digitizing my dvd collection and am planning on rewatching but trying to focus on the background and side characters. They sometimes are doing hilariously obvious pantomiming in some older episodes.

A “Showerthought” is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you’re doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The most popular seem to be lighthearted clever little truths, hidden in daily life.

Here are some examples to inspire your own showerthoughts:

  • Both “200” and “160” are 2 minutes in microwave math
  • When you’re a kid, you don’t realize you’re also watching your mom and dad grow up.
  • More dreams have been destroyed by alarm clocks than anything else

Rules

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. No politics
    • If your topic is in a grey area, please phrase it to emphasize the fascinating aspects, not the dramatic aspects. You can do this by avoiding overly politicized terms such as “capitalism” and “communism”. If you must make comparisons, you can say something is different without saying something is better/worse.
    • A good place for politics is c/politicaldiscussion
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy’s Code of Conduct and the TOS

If you made it this far, showerthoughts is accepting new mods. This community is generally tame so its not a lot of work, but having a few more mods would help reports get addressed a little sooner.

Whats it like to be a mod? Reports just show up as messages in your Lemmy inbox, and if a different mod has already addressed the report, the message goes away and you never worry about it.
