Dr Who has consistently overturned British class expectations, which continue to reflect deep societal divisions.
It’s always been about representation but in a different sort of way than Star Trek. It recognizes that privilege does still exist, but the Doctor and their Tardis select companions on an entirely different basis, often just by luck.
Yes please!!!!
I have absolutely been waiting for this to be released to Steam.
Finding games that I can share with our teens on Steam is challenging but important for keeping connected. So, we’re often looking for games that appeal to more than one of us. When we buy it’s 2, 3 or 4 keys. Having one for free to start would be great.
Resurgence really looks to offer the kind of role playing that makes sharing the journey in parallel fun.
The whole run is less than 8 hours total, and there’s several episodes in there that really bridge between TOS and the movies and TNG, even if they’ve been cut down for the format.
But here are a few other suggestions…
‘The Slaver Weapon’ was written by Larry Niven himself, adapting his story ‘The Soft Weapon’, and making Kzinti a Star Trek canon species.
‘The Practical Joker’ gives us the holographic simulator in the Rec Room, and the first ‘space anomaly leads to computer misfunctions and Holodeck insanity’
‘Mudd’s Passion’ gives us Scotty and the Caitain second Communications Officer Lt M’Ress in an unintended romantic twist.
Uhura gets command in ‘The Lorelei Signal.’
‘More Tribbles, More Troubles’ is an essential part of Tribble lore.
‘The Time Trap’ and ‘The Jihad’ are great for showing off a wider range of sentient species.
I’m in.
After several decades of Whovians trying to convince me to join in the franchise, and several failed attempts to get into it, I’ve found a Doctor and companion who are holding my interest.
Sounds like you just haven’t been aware of what she’s been in.
She had a Best-supporting actress Oscar nomination in 2004 for ‘The House of Sand and Fog’ and Primetime Emmy win in 2009 for Outstanding Actress in a miniseries or movie.
It’s more the case that , as for Michelle Yeoh, older women seem to get meatier roles in science fiction and fantasy than in mainstream or art house productions.
I would love to see Shorleh come over to the Trek franchise in a worthy role. I can definitely see her standing out in the 25th century.
The article suggests that the environment plays a significant role in gasturlation, especially the chemistry.
If identical twins develop in the same uterine environment, there would be greater likelihood of the same genes expressing.
Another helpful resource, although very much oriented to knitters and what’s available in the USA only, is https://yarnsub.com/.
If the pattern calls for a specific yarn, and they have it listed (even discontinued yarns), this site can give good guidance on what yarn could be substituted.
Yes, front side of the stiches only will make a significant difference, and a looser fabric.
But it’s also true that as we become more seasoned at crochet our tension will change. If you’re too tight or too loose, definitely do another test swatch with a different hook-size.
Last, while the measurements are for a 4x4” swatch, you really have to have a bigger square to get a true measurement of the tension. The edges do affect things. That’s why, I always go for a 6x6” swatch and measure inside of that.
Google is wrong. Aran is a thicker yarn on average. Worsted is between DK and Aran.
Here’s just the top of the yarn menu from Canada’s largest wool independent store. Wool-Tyme. As we get EU, and UK yarn as well as US, the full range is represented.
Suggest that the OP look through their sizes to see what UK yarns fall under ‘worsted.’
A worsted is a bit finer than an Aran, heavier than a DK.
Knitting with worsted normally gives 20 stitches per 10 cm/4in in stocking stitch. Aran would give 18, DK 22.
With crochet, the hook size and stitch type will make a huge difference. If you use the stated hook with a worsted instead of an Aran weight you’ll have a more open fabric. That may be what you want, especially with a cotton.
Best advice to give is to do a sample of at least 15 by 15 cm / 6 x 6 inches. That will give you a benchmark of the stitch size, the amount of yarn used and the stiffness or drape of the fabric you’re creating.
I’m still seeing this as an active posting, linked on other UN pages e.g.,

However, a similar claim in January was found to be false by fact checking news orgs.
My spouse felt commemoratively inspired and asked me to post.

The Thomas Fisher Rare Book Library doesn’t seem open to the public all the time, but it does have events it seems.

Also it has participated in Doors Open Ontario which is an annual event for a few days in May, when many publicly funded or non-profit buildings that usually have restricted admittance, are open for viewing.
