One on sale in my Etsy shop… …and the rest directly from my sketchbook:
Cold, hard facts.
[Crossposted from Facebook so I can keep it at hand.] This was something that started in a comment thread to one my other Facebook posts. I’m giving it its own post because I think it’s important (and because it was a lot of work for just a comment and I don’t want it to get…
ST:TNG Binge Watch Season 7, Part II
7:6 Phantasms – The very, very memorable (and fun!) episode in which Data’s dream program, with bizarre imagery of destruction and cannibalism, starts to intrude on waking life. (Why does anyone in the 24th century know what a ringing phone sounds like? My own children only know it from old movies.) I think there are…
ST:TNG Binge Watch Season 7, Part I
7:2 Liaisons – Three ambassadors from a new species demonstrate that they have no idea what “diplomacy” is; they use their designated liaisons from the Enterprise — Troi, Worf, and Picard — to explore some foreign-to-them concepts: pleasure, antagonism, and romantic love. The one with Troi explores pleasure by experiencing desserts (I really don’t think…
ST:TNG Binge Watch Season 6, Part IX
6:25 Timescape – The first half of this episode is truly nifty — coming back from some dang conference or another (isn’t it amazing how so much “exploration” is replaced with “bureaucracy”?) on a runabout (which is NOT a shuttlecraft, so it’s not a designated Death Trap), Picard, Troi, LaForge and Data encounter localized time…
ST:TNG Binge Watch Season 6, Part VIII
6:22 Suspicions – Dr. Crusher indulges her hobby interest in shielding technology (uh-huh) to host a bunch of alien scientists on the Enterprise (okay) to examine the theories of a Ferengi physicist (why not); then the whole thing becomes a whodunit (sure) which hinges on an unknown-but-probably-should-have-been-known element of alien physiology (naturally). Actually, what this…

ST:TNG Binge Watch Season 6, Part VII
6:19 Lessons – Time for another “Captain Picard falls in love” episode, which means time for my daughter to cry out, “Why can’t Captain Picard ever find happiness?!” Of the three main romances* Picard has had — Vash the archaeological thief, Kamala the empathic metamorph, and this episode’s Lieutenant Commander Daren — this one makes…
ST:TNG Binge Watch Season 6, Part VI
6:17-18 Birthright Parts I & II – Worf gets a tantalizing tidbit of rumor: Maybe his father did NOT die in the Romulan raid on Khitomer. Could it be true? He follows up on it, to discover a remote planet on which Romulans have guarded a prison camp of dishonored Klingon survivors of Khitomer, one…
