  3. How would we explain our present day world events to a #Tamarian from #StarTrek ?

    Kira at Bashi;
    Hegseth at Signal. Goldberg at Signal. Hegseth, his army at Yemen. Goldberg at The Atlantic.

    Temba, his arms wide?

  4. #Mozilla, on the #enshittification rollercoaster.
    Kiteo, his eyes closed.
    Zinda, his face black, his eyes red.
    Kiazi's children, their faces wet.
    Shaka, when the walls fell.

  5. Um. Y'all. Y'ALL. I have a morning meeting with Temba tomorrow on Teams. Howie and Temba in the windows. Howie, his lip bitten, his willpower weak. Temba, his humor unknown. HR, when the email arrives. Shaka, when the walls fell! #StarTrekTNG #Darmok #Tamarian

  6. Kayshon is not the only Children of Tama in Starfleet. Galinha is as well, serving aboard NCC-72227. He was recently promoted from lieutenant to lieutenant commander 2 RPG sessions ago, in 2381.

  7. In this fascinating article from 2014 on the #Darmok episode, #IanBogost argues that the #Tamarian’s don’t speak in metaphors, but detailed procedural allegories. So, kinda like, “Sulu, at the helm when the Klingons attacked at Organia” would be, “shields up, break orbit, maximum warp.” #StarTrek

  8. @TaoJiang 🧵

    Inventing #Tamarian: “I remembered the extremely dense, ‘historical’ metaphors present in medieval Chinese poetry and philosophical works like the I Ching.”

    “… ‘Darkening of the Light’ stood out in Menosky’s memory. It describes the life of Prince Chi, forced to live at the court of the evil tyrant Chou Hsin. “‘ Chi at the court of Chou’ was the first sentence I wrote for the Tamarian language,” Menosky notes. “But I didn’t use it in the episode, or I’d have revealed my source.”

  9. Troja, when the horse opens~
