Stamets by name. Stamets by nature.

Or as Shaw would say, Annika Shmullus.

Honestly, I get your point, but I don’t think it’s necessarily a property of the scale, rather your increased familiarity with it. When someone says 68F I don’t have a mechanism to understand that, it’s not part of my experience. Saying 68% of too hot doesn’t help much at all. Whereas I can tell you exactly what I 40C feels like; and how that compares to anything from -15C to 45C, because of my familiarity with the scale.

My personal theory is that everything from Pathfinder onward is an elaborate holodeck programme; even the end of that episode where they establish communications. Voyager never made it home, Janeway dies in the D-quad, Harry is left in charge but never promoted.

No T’Anna. No M’Benga. What you got against apostrophes!?

It’s the sound your make when your retro fridge breaks down because you looked at it the wrong way. Common occurrence sadly.

I’ve sung this out loud, perhaps once a week, for 32 years.

I think the scale of change, and also displacement, are both factors. Going back 3 days to change who wins a bet isn’t going to piss off the temporal police. Maybe going back and fucking with your own timeline a bit is the same. Maybe that’s why Red Foreman got away with his shit even when it started to impact humans.
