Semi collaborative meme. I got some advice and encouragement from @sad_detective_man@sopuli.xyz , @SatyrSack@quokk.au , and the enlightened mod @ummthatguy@lemmy.world. You can see the sausage making/brainstorming process here :

Also, in reference to our much missed PugJesus ...

Explanation : While we like to repeat that Trek has always been woke, some parts of the wardrobe choices have been ... more male gaze motivated instead of solely for female empowerment. Actreses did complain about Bergman's choices and biases more vocally, but always remember your roots kids.

I wanted to back up the specific actress' viewpoints with sources, but the facts aren't so cut and dry, and I cannot verify these statements. The meme does capture the mood about the outfits, while it doesn't necessarily reflect the specific events and actress' viewpoints.

The stories and information posted here are artistic works of fiction and falsehood. Only a fool would take anything posted here as fact.

EDIT : Folks, the reason for the thread isn't just to post the stuff you beat off to in the 90s. I'm not saying don't post it, but like, I'm saying it was NOT a good thing that it happened.

EDIT : Meme made!

I kinda want to make a meme based off this comic :

https://natlib.govt.nz/records/22728118

Transcript from the page itself :

A Muslim woman wearing a burka that covers everything except her eyes watches a girl wearing a bikini and sunglasses; the burka-covered woman is interested that the bikini-girl has 'nothing covered but her eyes' and the bikini girl is interested that the burka woman has 'everything covered but her eyes' and each sympathises that the other lives in 'a cruel male-dominated culture!'

I talked with my wife about how Jeri Ryan was upset that Rick Bergman kept pushing for skintight outfits because he's a pervert, but from my perspective, just like how star trek has always been "woke", star trek has always been run by a pervert; Gene Roddenberry was also a fairly lecherous gentleman; and some cast members of TOS were not very happy with the lengths of skirts... which some feminists point out that the miniskirt was a part of the sexual revolution going on at those times.

But I can't quite mesh the two ideas. Having the images be the same doesn't quite get the pervynes being the same in both eras, making them both the bikini clad one and keeping the wording but changing "male dominated culture" with the names of the producer of the era doesn't seem to gel quite well.

Any ideas?

I'm not asking for anyone to photoshop/gimp anything, just seeing if anyone can help guide the meme to crystalise the idea.

EDIT : Maybe it should be the salary meme?

Jeri : I'm sick of these skintight outfits!
Grace : At least you can sit down without showing off your pants
T'pol and Hoshi in decontamination shower : You guys get to wear clothes?

I logged in and instead of having a quick select for time format, it said "YOU HAVE A NEW MESSAGE FROM LICHESS"

Oh shit, did I get a reprimand for sandbagging??

CONTEXT :

The Vancouver Canucks have had riots for the 1994 and 2011 Stanley Cup finals, because the city can't handle success.

I made this meme now because the Argentinians are doing the same fucking thing. Also, @potustheplant@feddit.nl is insisting on being the representative for all the salty argentinians in the fediverse and has been posting shit all day.

I hate gnome and how it looks and how it works. I'm glad that there is something which is that drastically different for people that enjoy it.

What's a good word for this?

András István Arató is the real name for "Hide the Pain Harold", who is a Hungarian retired electrical engineer and model. Given his age and location, he probably read Jucika.

This is basically a showerthought for the 3 people that read the Jucika posts in !comicstrips@lemmy.world

for one user, one machine. nothing fancy. just something that I can store passwords in. I've heard freakout problems about a lot of different ones.

EDIT : I'm on debian. 13.

Someone I know asked me for a favour. They made an agreement with a software firm for some custom software for basically inventory on a web interface, generic DB+webserver. They need me to do updates to it as a favour.

It's handoff time. The guys are giving him some trouble. I let them know if I need to do maintainence and whatnot, I need the source code. The guys are saying no. I recommended we use a licence that basically says "Buyer can modify the software and source code, but not distrobute it. Creator can distrobute the software and whatever they want".

I've looked around, and I saw recommendations for :

• source code escrow
• internal-use license
• Modified Source Code License
• custom Restricted Source Code License
• internal modification only licence

anyone have recommendations of specific licences?

The discerning palette of the residents of Jhelum (Jhelumites?) can be witnessed flocking to the respected Canadian Establishment.

I have no idea how to make this joke seem less like an advert while still being funny

EDIT : They even have a "Hardees"! Pakistan is poppin off these days, they have an excellent Tekken scene and all these north american franchise locations.

EDIT2 : Come on down to Pakistan! It's all hip happenin' here!
